Growing Magic

witchdex is a comprehensive, dynamic, and mobile-friendly reference for magical + witchcraft correspondences based on several years of independent research. it's a work in progress and i am constantly updating and adding information so please remember to do your own research!

currently compatible with firefox, chrome, and safari, and for entertainment purposes only - not a replacement for medical, financial, or legal advice.

dataset + code created by me - please don't steal, copy, or redistribute as your own!

CURRENT CATEGORIES

crystals, plants, fruits, planets, metals, colors, and one single mineral, which is salt lol

TIPS + TRICKS

search for whole words without punctuation - instead of "self-love" try "self love"

some of the most common terminology used for associations/traits include but are not limited to: attraction, banishing, binding, cursing, divination, dreamwork, fertility, fidelity, love, lust, manifestation, protection, psychic abilities, power, warding

keywords for items include associations that would be considered benefic to the caster, and if an item also has a baneful association, it will be listed as such underneath its keywords - the same applies for items that may be toxic

you may notice missing information in some sections as i continue to work on this page - please be patient with me! :)

if you see any misinformation, misspellings, typos, formatting errors, coding errors, duplicate entries, etc. OR have any questions, please send me a message via the contact page

please enjoy and consider buying me a coffee so i can keep doing stuff like this in my spare time. :)

Above is a video from one of my favorite youtubers, Ze Frank, that goes into more detail.

Lightning bug conservation is not being funded, so the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation requires donations to further their research. The aim is to establish lighting bug sanctuaries and begin habitat restoration efforts.

Studying these little guys has done so much for us in many different fields including medicine! It's important that lightning bugs are protected so future generations can experience that magical feeling of sitting in a field surrounded by little lights.

Please consider donating! Every bit helps🐝

They also have a free PDF guide on how to make your yard/property/garden as firefly safe as possible!

for instance, green tea, freshly steeped and served without additives, is hot and dry, and therefore has an aspect of fire.

a mocha, on the other hand, while hot, is sweet, and therefore wet, and thus has an an aspect of air.

lemonade, which is wet and cold, has a water aspect.
