Must have books for witches

(Read at your own risk, I recommend researching the authors before buying or downloading if you don’t want to support their work. Take the information in this book with a grain of salt and double check with another source you trust)

Hello, last time I posted about a book a lot of people liked it so I decided to bring 2 more… Both are one of my favorite books and I find myself checking them all the time. The info in both is very useful for those who are just starting out, I know it’s often overwhelming you don’t know where to start when you want to cast a spell but the correspondence book I think solves that problem as it gives you a table of correspondences for each intention, crystal, some basic plants, deities etc….

As for the second book, Encyclopedia of Herbs, I have used it since I started practicing many years ago. We always find the same herbs in tumblr posts (basil, rosemary, sage….) but many times we don’t have access to those types of herbs so this book was very useful for me to work and familiarize myself with the plants that I could find in my region

Get the Fuck Out Room Spray

a (maybe a little silly, but effective godsdamnit) warding spray for getting bullshit the fuck out of your space. particularly effective for use after having unwanted visitors.

Materials:

an empty spray bottle

blessed/charged water of your choosing (i recommend storm water or waning moon water)

herbs of your choosing - anything associated with banishing, warding off negativity, and cleansing - black salt, burdock, eucalyptus, etc, I also used lemongrass bc it's spread around the home "to ward off snakes" which i thought was appropriate

Instructions:

put all that shit in a jar

shake that shit up

like aggressively shake it, we are not talking about friendly vibes here peeps

yell obscenities at the bullshit as you spray your space, preferably with the windows open. spray from the inside out. shake your fist at the bullshit as it leaves. no I am not kidding.

Crafting Magic: Exploring the Basics of Spell Structure

Introduction: Spells are an integral part of witchcraft and occult practices, allowing us to harness our intentions, work with energy, and manifest our desires. Understanding the basic structure of a spell is essential for creating effective and meaningful magical rituals. In this blog post, we will dive into the foundations of spell structure, guiding you through the key elements necessary to craft your own spells and enhance your magical practice.

Intent and Clarity: The first step in spellcraft is determining your intent. Clearly define what you wish to achieve or manifest through your spell. Be specific and concise, as a well-defined intention helps focus your energy and align your actions. Take the time to contemplate your desires and ensure they resonate with your values and highest good. When your intent is clear, the rest of the spell structure falls into place more easily.

Gathering Supplies: Once you have set your intention, gather the supplies and tools you will need for your spell. These can include candles, herbs, crystals, sigils, ritual objects, or anything else that aligns with your intention. Choose items that symbolize or enhance the energy you wish to work with. Cleansing and consecrating your tools before use can amplify their magical properties and establish a sacred connection.

Creating Sacred Space: Before casting a spell, it is important to create a sacred space that fosters focus, clarity, and energetic alignment. This can be done through various methods, such as smudging with herbs, casting a protective circle, or simply visualizing a bubble of sacred energy around you. Establishing sacred space helps to separate mundane reality from magical practice and invites higher vibrations into your ritual.

Setting the Mood: Setting the mood is crucial for creating the right atmosphere and raising the energy necessary for spellcasting. Consider lighting candles, playing soft music, or using incense to enhance the ambiance. Choose scents, colors, and sounds that align with the intention of your spell. Allow yourself to enter a state of heightened awareness and receptivity, preparing yourself to work with the energies at hand.

Energy Activation: Activating and directing energy is a core aspect of spellwork. This can be done through various methods, such as visualization, chanting, or movement. Visualize the energy flowing within and around you, building in intensity as you focus your intention. Channel this energy through your body, your tools, or into the designated ritual space. Use your chosen method to raise and direct the energy toward your desired outcome.

Ritual Action: Ritual action serves as the bridge between the mundane and the magical. It is the physical manifestation of your intention and energy. This can take the form of lighting a candle, crafting a sigil, reciting incantations, or performing symbolic gestures. Let your intuition guide you in selecting the actions that feel most aligned with your intent. As you engage in these actions, infuse them with purpose and intention, visualizing your desires coming to fruition.

Expressing Gratitude and Closing: Gratitude is an integral part of spellcraft. Express gratitude to the universe, deities, spirits, or whatever higher power you resonate with, acknowledging their assistance and support. Thank them for the manifestation of your intention, even if it has not yet physically manifested. Close your spell by releasing the energy and dismissing the sacred space you created, returning to the mundane realm with a sense of completion and closure.

Conclusion: By understanding the basic structure of a spell, you gain the tools to craft effective and meaningful rituals. Remember to always work with integrity, aligning your intentions with your highest good and the greater good of all. As you explore and refine your spellcasting skills, allow your intuition to guide you, and adapt the structure to

suit your personal style. Embrace the magic within you, and watch as your intentions manifest in the world around you.
