I am a solar witch by nature, and I feel like a lot of people don’t understand the protection the sun gives us. The sun is the most dynamic and powerful energy source known to us, hands down. All cosmic light comes from her. Yes, even the moon gets its light from the sun, though most people, myself included, consider the moon a separate entity. I’ve never been attacked or had any negative energy dare come near me in full sunlight. She is powerful and she does not leave.
So, instead of disappearing at night, she simply goes into another form. This is the time solar energy transforms from the singular yellow sun to the more cosmic power of the stars. This is the time when the colder fire of the universe is visible. Starlight is the most mysterious part of solar magick, one that’s softer and comforting, yet incomprehensible.
⭐️ The more stars you can see, the more powerful your spells!
⭐️ If it’s the time of year a certain constellation is visible, you can focus on spells regarding that zodiac or deity
⭐️ August is one of the best months for meteor showers
⭐️ Star water is a thing! It can be affected by whatever constellation you set it under as well
⭐️ Individual stars can also have different spells attached to them (i.e. the morning star, the north star, etc)
⭐️ All crystals are safe to charge under starlight
⭐️ Secret magick
⭐️ Cerebral magick
⭐️ Questions about other beings or entities
⭐️ Divination
⭐️ Spells about our purpose as a being on this plane of existence
⭐️ Spells about our purpose as a being on the next plane of existence
⭐️ Spells for a peaceful sleep or recovery
⭐️ Spells to recharge your astral power or energy sink
⭐️ Spells about dreams or spells trying to induce lucid dreaming
⭐️ Spells for contacting those who are no longer with us
Other witches feel free to reblog with any other tips or spells! My other solar spell guides and general magick guides are here and here!

Essential oil free!
1. A sudden burst of sunlight, as through broken clouds
I just made my batch for this winter and I thought I'd share this recipe with you!
Good for: Physical Healing, Protection, Divination, Happiness, Love, Creativity, Prophesy, Truth, Solar Deities
Medically: cools and softens skin, helps heal small cuts, burns, irritations, SAD, breaking fever, purifying, anti bacterial, helps relieve anxiety and depression
Grapeseed or sunflower oil
Dried hibiscus
Dried juniper berries
Dried Bay leaves
Dried citrus peel
Dried dandelion root
Rosemary
A cinnamon stick
If you want to add essential oils you can, I didnt for this batch but In the past I've used frankincense, lemon, orange, cinnamon, vetiver, black pepper, sandalwood, and juniper
Best to grind the ingredients before adding them to the oil (except the cinnamon stick)
Makes a great offering for any solar deity like apollo, sol, helios, sekhmet
Let infuse in the sunshine for a few weeks-months depending on how much oil you're making, or if you want it faster & stronger you can heat it up until it turns red from the hibiscus
It smells so good so it's an excellent natural perfume, and it's great for your skin!
I tend to go heavy on the hibiscus and juniper in this but the amounts used are up to you.
Crystal infusions: citrine, garnet, carnelian
an old spell of mine i had posted on an old side account before deleting the blog, but i’m reposting it here on my new witchcraft side blog. a jar spell that charges in the sun to keep your space protected. this ward is strongest in late spring and summer.
☀️ gather: jar, black tea leaves, green tea leaves, cayenne pepper, apple seed, black candle
☀️ light your black candle
☀️ layer the ingredients one by one into your jar. black tea grounds to expel negative energy and entities, green tea leaves to amplify energy and behave as a catalyst, cayenne pepper for offensive magic/quick results/heat, then one by one place a desired amount of apple seed*
☀️ as you drop your apple seed, affirm “for every attack on this ward, it is reflected to the attacker ten times the amount for every apple seed in this jar”
☀️ spit inside the jar and seal with candle wax
☀️ place in a section of your home where it can be in direct sunlight and recharge (or reheat) as needed.
*while apple seed may be used as a love spell ingredient, due to the resin properties within it can also be used for curses*
🍓❤☀️Summer of Love Strawberry spell☀️❤🍓
A tasty snack, and spell, to bring you love this summer.
What you need:
🍓Strawberries- love (all types), happiness, summer magic (this spell also works with strawberry ice cream)
💎Sugar-love, sweetness, attraction
🍂Cinnamon- love, warmth, sun magic
☀️A sunny spot, especially outside
What to do:
🍓Get as many strawberries as you’d like
🍓Mix the sugar with a dash or 2 of cinnamon
🍓go sit in your sunny spot and feel the suns warmth
🍓say “this summer, is the summer of love”
🍓dip the strawberries in the cinnamon sugar. And as you do, focus on intent and the type of love you want in you life. Feel the sunshine manifesting the energy with you as you eat.
🍓when you finish eating the spell is done! Enjoy!

A quiet, starry night sky might not seem like a very eerie spectacle, but space can be a creepy place! Monsters lurk in the shadowy depths of the universe, sometimes hidden in plain sight. Many of them are invisible to our eyes, so we have to use special telescopes to see them. Read on to discover some of these strange cosmic beasts, but beware — sometimes fact is scarier than fiction.
You know those nightmares where no matter how fast you try to run you never seem to get anywhere? Black holes are a sinister possible version of that dream — especially because they’re real! If you get too close to a black hole, there is no possibility of escape.
Just last year our Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope traced an otherworldly ghost particle back to one of these monster black holes, providing additional insight into the many signals we’re picking up from some of the most feared creatures in the cosmic deep.
But it gets worse. Our Hubble Space Telescope revealed that these things are hidden in the hearts of nearly every galaxy in the universe. That means supermassive black holes lurk in the shadows of the night sky in every direction you look!
This fiendish specter lives in the center of the Milky Way, haunting our galaxy’s supermassive black hole. But it’s not as scary as it looks! Our SOFIA observatory captured streamlines tracing a magnetic field that appears to be luring most of the material quietly into orbit around the black hole. In other galaxies, magnetic fields seem to be feeding material into hungry black holes — beware! Magnetic fields might be the answer to why some black holes are starving while others are feasting.
The universe has bats in the attic! Hubble spotted the shadow of a giant cosmic bat in the Serpens Nebula. Newborn stars like the one at the center of the bat, called HBC 672, are surrounded by disks of material, which are hard to study directly. The shadows they cast, like the bat, can clue scientists in on things like the disk’s size and density. Our solar system formed from the same type of disk of material, but we can only see the end result of planet building here — we want to learn more about the process!
A jack-o-lantern in space?! Our Solar Dynamics Observatory watches the Sun at all times, keeping a close eye on space weather. In October 2014, the observatory captured a chilling image of the Sun with a Halloweenish face!
On Halloween a few years ago, an eerie-looking object known as 2015 TB145 sped across the night sky. Scientists observing it with our Infrared Telescope Facility determined that it was most likely a dead comet. It’s important to study objects like comets and asteroids because they’re dangerous if they cross Earth’s path — just ask the dinosaurs!
Trick-or-treat! Add a piece of glowing cosmic candy to your Halloween haul, courtesy of Hubble! This image shows the Saturn Nebula, formed from the outer layers ejected by a dying star, destined to be recycled into later generations of stars and planets. Our Sun will experience a similar fate in around five billion years.
Massive stars are in for a more fiery fate, as the Witch’s Broom Nebula shows. Hubble’s close-up look reveals wisps of gas — shrapnel leftover from a supernova explosion. Astronomers believe that a couple of supernovae occur each century in galaxies like our own Milky Way.
Supernovae usually herald the death of a star, but on a few occasions astronomers have found “zombie stars” left behind after unusually weak supernovae. Our Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) has even spotted a mysterious glow of high-energy X-rays that could be the “howls” of dead stars as they feed on their neighbors.
The universe is brimming with galaxies, but it’s also speckled with some enormous empty pockets of space, too. These giant ghost towns, called voids, may be some of the largest things in the cosmos, and since the universe is expanding, galaxies are racing even farther away from each other all the time! Be grateful for your place in space — the shadowy patches of the universe are dreadful lonely scenes.
Some forces are a lot creepier than floorboards creaking or a door slamming shut unexpectedly when you’re home alone. Dark energy is a mysterious antigravity pressure that our Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) is going to help us understand. All we know so far is that it’s present everywhere in the cosmos (even in the room with you as you read this) and it controls the fate of the universe, but WFIRST will study hundreds of millions of galaxies to figure out just what dark energy is up to.
