SIGIL ~ FOCUS

Here is a new sigil! This one is related to the Motivation one. I created them together using a similar base. I needed both of them at that time and I think they might be useful to you too! Don’t forget it can apply to anything you want to focus on!

I’m sending all of you lots of support in everything you want to accomplish ♥

Reblog appreciated ♥ Please don’t repost!

🌙 Lazy Witch Tip: As you softly call upon the elements, write your spell on the air with either the tip of your finger or a crystal point. When you’re finished, gently blow your spell into the universe. Feel the breeze against your skin and be at peace.

Tips for Witchcraft in the Dorm

If you're in a situation where you have a roommate that may not be open to your craft, you're in the broom closet and being in college makes it even harder to practice, you're starting your witch journey while in college, you couldn't take a full sized altar to school, or you're like me and attend a private Christian college (ugh) that makes you feel the need to be discreet, this post is for you!

If you have an altar: Find a way to downsize your altar. For some this isn't a huge thing, but I'm the kind of gal that liked to go all out with my space. The best way to do it is to find a box or container that can be moved easily and has all your essentials, and only take what can fit. If you can't fit certain tools, it's best to find substitutions. A small bowl that can hold water will work just as well as a crystal ball. Putting herbs in bags will allow more room than jars.

Alternative to candle magic: I know the urge to put tape over that fire alarm is real but I'm unfortunately a goody two shoes. Luckily wax burners exist and you can get all the fun of candle magic minus the flame. I like to draw sigils into my wax before melting it for spellwork; and you can get all sorts of different colored wax. If you need unscented wax, you can buy white wax and dye it.

Some discreet types of magic to look into:

Tea. Tea. Tea. I cannot stress how useful tea magic is. There's loads of information about it right here on Tumblr! Most dorms allow ectric teapots and tea is easy to store.

Knot magic. Here's a great post about it. Absolutely any kind of spell can be done with a knot and it's super easy to implement into everyday activities.

Moon magic. Guys, the moon is awesome. Work with it. Moon water is a great manifestation tool and corresponding anything with the moon phases is an instant boost. It's also free and super easy.

Sigils. Really fun to learn and really easy to draw in a couple journals, on a foggy window, in your tea as you stir it, or on your skin. I recommend Pinterest if you're trying to find tutorials.

Runes. I like to cast physical runes but there's lots of ways to use these in everyday magic. Each symbol has their own meaning and there's an abundance of information on them. Similar to sigils, I like to draw them on things.

Extra tips:

Learn the correspondences for each day of the week. Doing little things for each day will keep you connected to your craft as you get through college.

Anything can be a chalice. Cleanse that cup and you're good to go.

Astrology is your friend.

I'm here for you. College is hard. Dorming can be a pain too.

I hope this helps someone. Reblog if you can. Love you all!

A Little Piece of Happiness

🌿🌼Center Yourself -Holy Basil Witch Tea🌼🌿

Hello my greenies! I know I’ve been absent for quite some time, but I’ve been having some personal stress and needed to clear my head. While I was doing this, I came up with some tea and spells to help realign myself and goals.

Holy Basil is used in a lot of different ways, but today we are focusing on it clearing “mental fog” and centering ourselves in the present. This tea has helped my anxiety and feel as if I could move on.

*Holy basil can have an anti fertility effect on both women and men, so if you’re pregnant or wishing to conceive at the moment, I would recommend not using this herb. This does not mean it will make you infertile though.

Ingredients  

2 1/5 tbsps of dried holy basil 

a slice of ginger

1 tbsp of dry hibiscus

1 tbsp of honey

Directions

boil the water in a kettle.

place the holy basil and hibiscus in a spacious strainer, then clockwise pour the water over the strainer.

place in the thin slice of ginger and let steep for about 5 minutes.

after, take out the herbs and place in the honey and stir counterclockwise while saying the chant.

“I am treading in this misty lake, my mind wilts like the fall flowers. Clear this path and help me reach shore, for I am spring and am needed once more.”

I hope this can help ground you as much as it has for me. I expect to be posting regularly again and thank you all for your patience.

*^* …also it’s my birthday on April 13th…just a heads up <3
