Do I look up to a spiritual leader/guru? Kinda, Mama J that owns my favorite witchy shop. The only thing with this question, is that I do find her more credible then some others I have been around, but I still question and do my own research on whatever topic we happen to discuss. Because, just because it works for her, may not for me.

Have I had a supernatural experience? Plenty, the college cafeteria that I worked at for 7 years, was pretty active. Pots would fly off shelves, not fall, fly. The clock would float off it's nail, like someone was trying to take it down to change the time, and then drop on the floor. Lights would turn off unexpectedly, not because of power issues or tripping the breaker. And of course, when I would be alone for my weekend breaks, I could hear some of our heavy ceramic plates rattle as if someone was grabbing a stack. And our dishwasher would start itself, even though you had to push something through to hit a switch to activate.

SPELL JAR FOR LUCK

Hello all,

It has been a very long time since I posted anything but I am back to practicing as of recently! I hope to continue posting more of my grimoire for you all to see. To ease myself back into the craft, I decided to do a spell jar as I am moving house soon and I need as much luck around money and prosperity and abundance as possible.

What you’ll need:

Nutmeg - money, prosperity, protection, good luck

Cinnamon - success, healing, protection, luck, money

Poppy seeds - good luck

Thyme - good luck

Mint - wealth, prosperity

Dandelion flower - hope, wishing

Salt - protection, good luck

Honey - prosperity, abundance

Buttercup - luck, money

Hair and saliva (optional) - I wanted this to be as specific to me as possible, and I felt sacrificing some of my hair would be sacrificial to boost the power of the spell.

Steps:

Cleanse the utensils you are going to use such as the jar and any measuring equiptment.

Write on a piece of paper what you need luck towards - are you moving house? Do you need luck with an exam or a job? Try to be specific, but not overly so to allow room for adjustment. (Optional: write this in yellow, green or gold pen as these colours are associated with wealth or luck. You can also include a sigil of your choosing).

Put the piece of paper in the jar alongside the rest of your ingredients.

Once the lid or stopper is fitted, light a candle and seal the jar with yellow, green or gold wax (I used yellow).

Once you have done this, hold the jar in your hands for a few seconds and think of what this luck will grant you. Imagine yourself in the position you'd like to be in if this luck is granted to you. Blow out the candle you used to seal the jar and watch as the smoke dissapears.

Safe Travels Spell and Spell Jar

My boyfriend is not very familiar with spell work, and he asked if I could do a spell for safe travels. We were invited to a local hockey game and we were given free tickets. He seldom asks for spells for himself mostly for other people. But I figured with the planetary alignment and it's heavy concentration of a lot of different energies at once, so perhaps a spell wouldn't hurt.

Spell:

Ra and his yellow candle for guidance and blessings

Dragon's Blood incense for protection

White candle for purifying and cleansing us and our space

Black candle for protection and ridding of negativity

Amber perfume for protection and soothing of nerves

I essentially asked Ra for guidance and protection during our travels. May the journey be smooth and calm, and if we meet any obstacles may they be small and manageable. May we handle these energies with calm and clear minds and understanding.

Spell Jar:

Salt for grounding and cleansing

Lavender for calm thoughts

Rosemary for gentle protection

Bay Leaf to ward of negativity

I asked Ra to bless this spell jar because it's going to be going on the car with us tomorrow.

Also, I had some witchy ambience music in the background because I prefer some noise to help me focus.

I had a dream where I was in a witch's cottage and in the kitchen she had an iron rack for wooden spoons. Like this but with a pentagram in the center:

And above each hook was a little sign with things like "love", "healing", and "strength". The spoons were enchanted for those purposes and hung on their respective hooks for easy access while cooking.

And I think that's just such a cool idea.... Now to find or make a rack.

Sun Magick

What Is A Sun Magick?

The Sun (also called Sol) is the one and only star in our solar system. Throughout the time almost every culture has worshiped the Sun as either a God or Goddess. Ancient Shamans used the power of the sun to heal the mind. The Sun is associated with life, health and healing. The light of guidance and illumination is an important magickal symbol. Solar energy helps you center in your own power, like the center of the solar system. Planet Earth orbits around the Sun. Other bodies that orbit the Sun include other planets, asteroids, meteoroids, comets and dust. Generally, the primary stellar body around which an object orbits is called its "sun", and stars in a multiple star system are referred to as the "suns" of bodies in that system.

Sun Phases

Sunrise

when the sun wakes up and peers over the horizon. This phase is all about new beginnings, changes, health, employment, renewal, resurrection and finding the right direction.

The Morning

the sun is growing in strength, so it brings the magical power for growth, positive energy, resolutions, courage, harmony, happiness, strength, activity, building projects and plans, prosperity and expansion of ideas.

High Noon

When the sun reaches its peak in the sky at midday – work magic for health, physical energy, wisdom and knowledge. It is also a good time to pop your tools or crystals out that need charging. (Note: some crystals can fade in strong sunlight so check first before putting them out).

Afternoon

This is a time to work in your communication, clarity, travel, exploration and professional matters

Sunset

As the sun takes itself off down below the horizon, work magic for removing depression, stress and confusion, letting go, releasing or finding out the truth of a situation.

Sun Water

Sun water is very similar to moon water. But rather than being charged by the moon, it’s charged by the sun. Sun water can be especially useful for helping boost the energy of a spell, to help an intention grow, and to cleanse.

Instructions:

Get a glass bottle

Fill it with any type of water.

Leave the bottle with water out in the sunlight or shade (indirect sunlight) during any time of day and for your preferred amount of time.

Tip Jar

Hello! I would like to start the path of energy work but I have basically no idea how to. Can you help me? Thank you

A great majority of it is feeling things out (no pun intended). Trying things yourself. Past the basics, there simply is not a lot available.

Let's define some very basic terms so that you can look them up later. Anything past this is honestly something you will have to teach yourself, especially relating to healing work.

Grounding: Sending excess or unneeded energy into an object or a place, usually the Earth or the Earth's core (though this could technically go anywhere), and pulling energy back up to restore your system. This is an excellent way to cleanse yourself.

Centering: Bringing your energy back to yourself from various places that are not yourself, and directly the energy to settle correctly within your body (whether this be through a pillar, imagining it as whole, imagining all your energy centers filled, etc.).

Shielding: Essentially a personal ward, usually shaped in a bubble (though basic bubble shields are ill recommended for a number of reasons). These are not just used in fights, though usually they are consciously employed for these purposes.

Scanning: Examining anything energetic.

Programming: Giving energy instructions on what to do, which is crucial. Something that is already programmed, or rather, made for a specific purpose that is not explicitly a shield, is called a "construct".

"Psiball": An energy ball. One of the basics you will usually want to learn and implement at least a couple of times before moving on to other matters.

There has been a very sharp dwindle in resources since the 2000s-2010s, but some resources and people from there are still around. Unless otherwise listed, materials are completely free.

As a scholar, I would not *formally* recommend pirated resources for peace of mind, however, they are out there and... some people... may have some links to them. Morally I would implore you to support the author of these works when you can well afford to, even if it is in a different form.

Various books (obviously paid). Some of these are available via audiobook:

I love library journeys!!

i had a dream that one of the things i did to more, like, apart of the community was go to the local library - weird because i'm not much of a leisurely reader.

but i'm not from here!! so going anywhere alone still freaks me out even after two years.

for whatever reason, i have received a sign to go to the library so i may very well do just that.
