Small Witchy Things To Make Every Day Magickal

“Good Vibes Only!” Cleansing Spray

☀️ 🍊 I made this with the thought for my fellow Solar Witches!  🍊 ☀️

You’ll need: 

Spray bottle

Cooking Pot

Sun Water : protection, healing, happiness, strength, comfort, warmth 

1 stick of cinnamon: protection, warmth 

Orange peels: Optimism, vitamin C 

Rosemary: protection, warmth

1 tbs of Salt: Protection, 

Here’s how you make Sun Water!

How to make:

Gather your ingredients and utensils

Pour your Sun Water into the cooking pot and turn on the stove

While the Sun Water is boiling, put all the ingredients in!

Let it boil and let the ingredients infuse into the water until you can smell the distinct smell of cinnamon and oranges 

Let it cool down before you pour the water into the spray bottle

Good luck! here’s a photo of mine:

A reminder for my struggling witches and pagans

It’s okay to have to learn to believe in magick. It’s okay if a part of your brain says that everything you’re doing is fake. It’s okay if you have no idea how to be spiritual or religious, but you just know you are.

It’s hard to adapt to a new spirituality, no matter how much it feels like the right path for you. It’s hard if you were raised non-religious or by a religion that taught you everything you’re doing is a sin.

You’re here because you’re a witch or pagan. A REAL witch or pagan. You’re finding your path, and you’ll grow and learn to believe in everything it entails. One day, that little voice in your brain will be gone.

I believe in you. You are valid. You are strong. Go be the magickal being you are. 

Blessed be!

I’ve been practicing witchcraft for five years now and haven’t yet made a book of shadows. I’ve put it off because I’m afraid I won’t be able to make it perfect, but I’m finally going to do it and accept that it won’t be perfect. Any tips before I start?

Tips on Grimoire Organization

Please note that if you are using a hard bound notebook or journal, adding in additional pages will bulk up your book, like so: (these are the exact same journals, btw)

- Envelopes. Let’s say you’re doing a section on Tarot in your Grimoire, and you want to include a few Tarot spreads, but you don’t want to waste two or three pages. Glue an envelope onto one of your pages to make a “pocket” where you can store little cards or papers with the tarot spreads written on them.

- Pockets. Similar to the envelope idea. If you have a page, or section for example, on herbal teas, you can make a pocket out of a piece of paper to keep your current favorite tea recipes in.

- Dividers, Cover Pages and Ribbons. If you’re like me and you like to have “sections” in your grimoire, you can easily make dividers by gluing a sheet of paper in your book (to make it heavier to make the sections stand out more). You can go further by turning your divider into a cover page for that section. And if you don’t like the idea doing that, you can always glue a ribbon, or a string, to the spine of your book to act as a bookmark.

- Double pages. I always had a problem with “wasting” pages in my grimoire. For example, my page on consecrating and charging. These two concepts are very similar to me, and I didn’t want two page stating the same thing. So, what I did was write out all my information on charging on a separate sheet of paper, then glued the top of that page into my grimoire. This way I could flip up the page on charging (as if it were on a clipboard) and have my page on consecrating underneath.

- Extended pages. Similar to the one above. In my Crystal section of my Grimoire, I decided to write out a chart that let me search for crystals by intention. So I drew my chart on a long sheet of paper, then folded it over (side to side) so that it fit comfortably in my book, then I just glued one side down into the book.

- Brochures. In my Elements section, I had a ton of information I wanted to write down, but I didn’t want each element to have more than two pages. So I used a piece of computer paper and folded it into a brochure (or into thirds) and glued it into the book so that the flaps would open and give me double the space to write.

- Clear Tape. There are many times where i finished a page in my grimoire only to find out there was a section that I left out. A simply way to fix this was with clear tape. I would write my forgotten bit of into on a separate piece of paper and then use clear tape to tape one side of the paper to my page. This allows me to flip the paper back and forth without covering up anything that I had written.

You’re healing every time you

get out of bed because there’s something you’re excited about.

don’t think about people who left.

clean the clutter in the room and dishes in your sink.

smile at yourself and random people.

do something kind and out of the blue to make someone happy.

work out or meet with friends even though you have no energy to.

calm yourself down when your thoughts race.

remember to drink water.

don’t dwell on things you can’t control.

do things good for yourself, even though you have no motivation.

tell yourself that you’re growing from this, and you won’t feel like this forever.

Today’s mood: live in a forest cottage, make magic potions and grow herbs in the garden

I see there's a lot of newbie witches from tiktok here, so PLEASE do not listen to everything you hear on tiktok. Half of them are teenagers with zero concept of basic protection. Witchcraft is lovely, I've been practicing for 5 years, but it's NOT lovely when you start practicing with no protection or understanding of how spells work.

Due to personal reasons I will be practicing witchcraft
