Sometimes you don’t have the perfect kind of water to do the job. Fortunately, you can substitute in a soda and it’ll do the trick.

Coke:Use to break down a barrier or disintegrate something. Good for curses/hexes/removing anything.

Pepsi: Use to “Sweeten” someone up, butter them before asking them of something. Good for offering due to high sugar content, making it sweeter than Coke.

Mountain Dew: Give a spell a jolt of energy/power.

Ginger Ale: Settle an argument, calm something down. Also good for grounding yourself, since it comes from a root.

Root beer: Also good for grounding. Use in a mixture to add the element Earth to your spell.

Cream Soda: Use as a replacement for vanilla extract, good with love-related spells and money.

Orange Soda: Good for love, luck, and divination. Drink before/during divining.

Alot of times in our practices, we often just straight up forget. Not going to lie to you I didn't practice much until I got out of my mom's home...which was one year ago. And I also have a theory that since paganism isnt dogmatic and is meant to be ran by a community we fall out really easy, it's natural, paganism is different now. But anyways here is chaos's master guide on how to put on your big girl panties and get back the work.

(disclaimer: just because these things worked for me doesn't mean it's going to work for everyone else, this post is completely upg. I'm just offering advice.)

Starting out small

What never stuck to me is those post that are like: "stir your intentions into your coffee, light incense, pray" because like yeah thats a good way to start off I really dont think itll set in our brains to do this everyday. Instead what I recommend is finding days to practice and sticking to that day. Find a day where you useally do nothing and dedicate it to getting back into your practice.

You could use this day to research on all the things you forgotten (been there)

Or you could just leave offerings out for your deities and call it a day

I think if you uphold a certain schedule your mind will get into the habit of "oh today's witch day, time to do witchcraft" this is basic psychology, and I promise it works 😭😭

Deity work and getting back into it

Little reminder: your gods are not mad at you. They do not hate you. They love you.

I have had so many falling outs with deities because I just couldn't uphold a schedule. Hekate being one of them. Hekate really showed me the way once I moved out of my mother's house, and after so many ins and outs of my worship to her, she still showed me love and compassion. I promise your gods will do the same. They understand our mortal lives more then you comprehend. After all, this is their earth.

Stuff you can do to get back into worship with your deities:

- offerings, big or small

- dedicate days to them, in my schedule Hekate is worshipped on Monday, and Aphrodite on Friday.

- research ways to connect with them more

- don't make big promises that you will get back into your practice and never fall out again, thats just putting yourself in more responsibility, your gods will now expect that responsibility. I've done this before and I definitely got side eyed by Hekate 😭😭

I recommend reading over these lovely post by @/khaire-traveler

Subtle deity worship

I honestly used this alot to get back into worship with my deities 😭😭 these posts go into worship you could do for deities while you are either hiding your practice or just want to do something for your gods. Really helpful post 10/10.

Getting back into witchcraft

I know I kind of went over this already, but I feel like there needs to be some small steps to getting back into witchcraft before we get to rituals, spells and stuff of that sort.

To get back into witchcraft, I recommend meditating, either by yourself or with your deities. Meditation allows you to just focus on the present and let go of all your stresses. I like to meditate with my deities because I get visions from them easily this way, it's easier for me to communicate.

From there you can do research on the basics of witchcraft and work your way up to rituals and spell work... hopefully all of this makes sense

Hello! I am going to try to break this down into sections, to answer a bit easier.

Please note, a lot of this is my own opinion, and others may agree / disagree, and that is okay. However, you did ask me, so this is what I have to say, and I hope it proves useful to you. If you don’t agree with something I say, or you feel differently, that’s okay, because magic is full of things like that. (I talk a little more about that further on).

How do I begin to do magic?

Well, you decide you want to do magic, you pick out some spells or methods you want to try, and you try them. :p That may seem really broad and not specific, but that is really it. Firstly, you will need to do some research (and I will talk about that below) on a branch of magic you are interested in (and there are many, but I won’t bring that up here just now). Once you’ve done your research, and you have an idea of where you want to begin, try some spells / methods, experiment if you feel comfortable enough doing so (though it can always wait until when you have more experience), and go from there.

[How to Do Magic]

How do I begin to learn about magic?

Research. And lots of it. Look for as many resources as you can find, online as well as in the physical world. Books, guides, tutorials, blogs, web pages. Cross check anything you find with other sources, no matter where you see it - you will find conflicting information, because magic is such a personal thing and therefore varies from person to person. This is okay. Try out one thing, see if it works, and if not try it out another way. Magic is a lot of research, testing and experimentation, then making note of what works for you, and trying something else.

[Here] is a post that talks about why your book on witchcraft might be full of it; if you have any questions as to why that might be, feel free to ask the OP or even myself. [Here] is a post that explains using discretion and critical reading in regards to witchcraft books.

I do not believe in deities, so where does magic come from?

Everywhere. The way a lot of us see magic is the manipulation of energy. Therefore, anything that has energy can be used in magic. Therefore, there is magical potential in anything. Mostly people get magic from the earth and the elements, or themselves; people also get the energy to fuel magic from objects that are known to carry potent energy for specific purposes - herbs, crystals, candles, etc. 

What can I do? What am I not able to do?

Do whatever you want - try whatever you want. Not everything will work for everyone, so I can’t say what may work for you or what may not. For instance, sigils work for me, but they may not for you, for various reasons. So, it’s a matter of playing around with different methods and seeing what you like and what works for you. 

There are some things I find magic can’t really affect - such as changing physical appearance or form in this plane, or completely removing illness from the body, just as a few examples. Magic is more useful for increasing the odds or likeliness of a thing to happen, but it cannot permanently guarantee a thing to happen. 

Are there rules?

Well, there can be, if you want to set them for yourself. There aren’t really any universal rules for being a magic user. There isn’t any set dogma or list of things you can or cannot do to be classified as a magic user.

Some people will talk about cursing or whatever here, but that is still a matter of personal choice and individual morals. If you want to, cool, if you don’t want to, also cool. What isn’t cool is trying to tell other people how they should practice. (Also why I’m not really talking about rules here, because that’s up to you to decide how you wanna practice.)

Besides that, the only thing I can think of would be the limits of physics, but that isn’t so much a rule as boundaries of the practice, things it just can’t do at this time.

By the way, thank you, your blog is awesome ~

And no before you go on the "Lilith is closed to Judaism" rant like gatekeepers always do - that makes absolutely no sense.

Judaism is a monotheistic religion, their god literally tells their followers that he is the one and only being they're allowed to worship. No amount of mental loops can make worshiping anyone but him "okay" in Judaism, especially not someone that rebelled against him.

And don't even get me started on the fact magic and witchcraft are a sin in Judaism... The absolute lack of understanding of religions gatekeepers need to have to somehow end up thinking that only Jews are allowed to worship Lilith...

Let me spell it out for you and all of the gatekeepers out there.

If a Jew worships Lilith, they're no longer Jewish. Worshiping and working with anyone other than the Abrahamic god makes you not a part of Judaism, a monotheistic Abrahamic religion, by default.

"But some Jews on the internet claim that they're allowed to worship her!" The fact new age Jews decided to bend the religion so much that it somehow makes sense in their eyes does not mean that all Jews are like that. If they choose to have a different outlook on the religion they're free to do so, but they don't speak for the entirety of the religion and in fact aren't considered Jews by the majority of the religion's sects.

Judaism does not condone even believing in the existence of any deities and gods other than Elohim. Lilith isn't even a thing in Judaism. The fact translations and mistranslations of the Tanach ended up adding her does not mean she exists in the original text nor in the religion itself.

.

So I'm going to tell this to you and to all the other gatekeepers stop shoving Lilith into a religion that doesn't even acknowledge her. It is clear that you've never read the actual non mistranslated writings and interpretations, you're not doing anyone any favor here by spreading misinformation.

Saying only Jews are allowed to work with Lilith, is identical to saying that only Christians are allowed to work with Satan. Hell it's worse, Satan at least exists in Christianity... Lilith does not exist in Judaism.

This is nonsensical, paradoxical, and ignorant.

You put a lot of work into this and I can tell you're pationate about it, so I'm going to try and exercise patience here and explain stuff in a non-emotional way. For context, I'm Jewish, I know a thing or two about Judaism, so you don't have to "spell anything out for me." I've heard every single argument you've laid out here before. Let me explain why they're not good ones.

To start, Lilith isn't a goddess and never was. That's a New Age projection trying to wedge her into the Wiccan Goddess archetype. The idea she was a Sumerian/Mesopotamian goddess has been thoroughly debunked multiple times. It is true that her name probably comes from the same origins as the lilit/lilitu, but they are a class of spirits that don't share too terribly much in common with her. Certainly not a singular entity. Lilith is classified as a demon spirit. Perhaps a very powerful/high-ranking one, but not a deity.

You might be excited to learn Jewitches are very much a thing. Judaism has an extremely rich history of mysticism and folk magic. In the modern day many devout Jews also practice some form of magic work. Here's an article about it, on a website all about it.

I'm not sure where your disdain for Jewish witches here is coming from. Besides the info laid out above, it's strange to me that you'd have such strongly-held opinions about the "proper" way to engage with a culture and religion you are not a part of. Not every Jew is an Orthodox Jew, and we are not "bending our religion to fit" anything so much as expressing our Judaism in a way you just might not be used to. It's also not possible for someone to un-Jew themselves like that. That's not how Judaism works.

Even beyond just Jewitches, I've never seen any "regular" Jews be okay with gentiles worshipping Lilith either. The most positive opinions I've seen are "If they want to be idiots and get themselves wrecked so be it, it's what they get" or "I don't like it, but it's too far gone for me to die on that hill anymore."

The Tanakh doesn't actually say that about other deities. It says HaShem is the only god for us, at least, but many Jews are more henotheistic than monotheistic. Even my own Rabbi agrees there's a decent argument for it. As for reading things "untranslated," assuming you're not fluent in both Aramaic/Biblical Hebrew, I still doubt you've done the same amount of research/textual analysis as centuries of ordained Rabbis. It's also very convenient to insinuate anything you don't agree with is simply a mistranslation.

Also, everything you know about Lilith almost definitely comes from the Talmud and various midrashim. There isn't anything written about her before that because again, Lilith as a singular figure predating Judaism is ahistorical bunk.

Jewish practice has recognized Lilith for at least 1400 years if not more. Jewish incantation bowls warding her off date back to the Sasanian Empire. There are tons of folk traditions related to Lilith which survive to this day. (Lilith amulets are still made in many places if you know where to look. In some communities everyone will wear their wedding dresses to a wedding to "confuse" Lilith and stop her from harming the bride.)

As for it being like "Christians only worshipping Satan," that doesn't hold up because 1) Satan is present in other religions besides Christianity, and 2) Christianity actively (or even aggressively) seeks to spread their stuff while Judaism does not. Judaism's practices are very insular, and adopting them without undergoing an intense formal conversion process is near-univerally considered offensive and inappropriate.

As we know, some people think more in words, and some people think more in images. Some people have a hard time visualizing, or straight up can’t do it.

Personally, I think in some words and some images, but mostly in a big abstract cloud of ideas and feelings which I have to translate into images or words in order to communicate. It’s easier for me to translate ideas into words than images. When I do think in images they kind of just happen without me consciously creating them. To make them on purpose is a lot harder.

So, when you tell me to visualize a protective bubble (to use a recently mentioned example), I can do it, but it’s not super solid. However, if you tell me to imagine a protective bubble, I can feel it and know it’s there. I can know what color it is without having to see it. This is a much stronger bubble than the one I visualized.

Since I decided to quit trying to visualize and start imagining, things have become a lot easier for me, and have felt more solid. I’m also spending less time being distracted by the effort of maintaining a visualization.
