Strawberry Supermoon 2022

Grab your baskets and your moon jars, witches - it's time for the Strawberry Supermoon!

Strawberry Moon

The Strawberry Moon is the name given to the full moon which occurs in the month of June in the Northern Hemisphere. The name is taken from the ripening of those little red heart-shaped berries we find in so many summertime treats. Strawberries are typically ready to harvest beginning around the summer solstice, though this will vary depending on variety, planting times, and local weather. The Strawberry Moon, sadly, does not turn pink to match the berries.

Other European names for this moon include Honey Moon, Rose Moon, and Mead Moon. Indigenous names for the June moon include Blooming Moon (Anishinaabe), Green Corn Moon (Cherokee), and Hatching Moon (Cree).

What Does It Mean For Witches?

Full moons are excellent times for bringing wishes to fulfillment and plans to fruition, all the more so under one named after a prolific berry. Supermoons amplify this effect, so this is an optimal time to make things happen!

Your intuition may be stronger than usual during this time, so pay attention to those little inklings and gut feelings that won't be ignored. They might be telling you something important. Dreams may also be more vivid, though not necessarily more accurate or revealing.

This is a time to explore things that catch your attention or pique your curiosity, and to let yourself be open to new ideas and new opportunities.

What Witchy Things Can We Do?

With a supermoon in the sky and the summer solstice hot on its' heels, it's time to prepare for a full bloom. Here's hoping you've been nurturing those plans and seeds of growth you planted in the spring, because they're about to start flowering and the way is clear to sow the next stage of your plans. What they will be and what new prospects the summer will bring is entirely up to you.

With the moon in Sagittarius, it's a good time to look ahead to the future. Think on the plans you have in process and let yourself dream of how things might turn out. If you're inclined to journaling, make a note of how things are going so far and how you hope they'll turn out. Pick your favorite divination method and do a reading for the month ahead. (Make sure you write that down too so you can check back later!)

This is a great time to go berry-picking or flower-gathering, so check your area for pick-your-own farms or farmer's markets with local produce. Have a picnic with friends or just enjoy a quiet afternoon with your own thoughts and a few favorite treats. Make a jar of sun tea or a sweet and summery berry salad. If you're partial to strawberries, indulge that sweet tooth!

Charge your crystals and spell jars and moon water under the light of Strawberry Moon to catch the energy of blooming flowers, ripening fruit, wishes coming true, and carefully-laid plans realized.

Spend a little time reflecting on how your year has gone thus far. Try to focus on the things that have improved and how you've grown as a person and in your life journey. Reflect on your accomplishments and what you plan to do next. Take a moment to be unashamedly proud of yourself for everything you've done and for making it this far despite everything life throws at you.

Happy Strawberry Moon, witches! 🌕🍓

“I Recover From Fatigue”

Draw this on a bottle/cup/mug of whatever it is you’re drinking be it coffee, tea, or water

Super Casual Mini Spells

Need to fall back in love with your craft? If I’ve learned anything, it’s the little moments that count. Learning to make small, everyday things magical is an art all witches can benefit from. Not to mention, being on tumblr often surrounds users with elaborate, expensive altars which, while totally fine, aren’t always realistic.

 Making everyday activites a part of your craft is incredibly helpful for:

   - getting back into witchcraft after a long break or hiatus

   - beginners who don’t feel ready for a formal spell

   - witches with mental disabilities who don’t have the energy for a formal spell  but still want to continue their practive

    - anyone!!! literally anyone!! everyone !!!!!

Here’s some ideas I had! Feel free to add yours on too :)

  much love, @nature-is-punk

Casual Kitchen Spells

-Stir your coffee/tea to the right on days you want a boost of extrovertedness, bravery, and confidence.

-Stir your coffee/tea to the left on days you want to focus on yourself. I like to do this before I paint or take a test!

-Envision your goals and wants each day as you make breakfast. Even if it’s just you pouring cereal and picturing an A on that test, it’s a small bit of mindfullness that can make a big difference.

-Mumble or just think of a sentence or two to serve as a little spell, repeating it three times. Then take three bites/sips to cast it! Bonus points if the food you’re eating coordinates with the spell - i.e,  eggs for new growth

-Eating oatmeal? Draw sigils with your spoon!

-My mom always said it was good luck to kiss the tea bag before you brew it…Not sure about this one, but might as well!

Casual Bedroom + Bathroom Spells

-Coordinate the colors you wear with your want for the day! Personally, my favorite way to do this is with underwear and socks, since I don’t exactly fancy wearn head to toe orange on days I want to be a bit more positive.

-Leave a few second pause before your feet first touch the ground in the morning, let yourself just have a little moment to dedicate your renewed energy before taking your first steps.

Make sigils with your:

Moisturizer

Foundation

Lip Balm

Sunscreen

-Each time you run the brush through your hair, repeat a little spell for personal growth and health! Clean your brush frequently so there is no old hair and ‘old energy’ adulterating the spell.

-Envision anything negative or toxic in your life being scraped off your skin each time you wash your hands.

-Shower magic is the absolute BEST! Enchant all your soaps so each wash gives you a little boost!

Casual Workplace Spells

-Draw sigils with your eraser on your assignments, portfolio, resume, etc.,

-Consistently churning out sub-par work? Try washing your pens off in the bathroom sink, imagining the water cleansing any sluggish energy. If anyone asks, you were eating something sticky and it got on your pens.

-When going up or down stairs, stick to the right side to attract new friends and maintain confidence.

Stick to the left side to focus on your own path and self.

Casual Misc. Spells

-If walking down the street a distance, come up with a little spell chant. Each step, say a word or piece of the spell.

-Enchanting your shoes - basic, but a must have. I have each of my shoes echanted for the places I generally wear them to–my heels are specialized for beauty and confidence, while my everyday sneakers for resilience and positivity.

- Find a spider in the house? Get a cup, and as you take it outside, explain to it that you could have easily killed it because it was in your home, but you benevolently let him go! Ask a question–the spider will answer within 7 days! Be on the lookout for signs.

             - This only works with spiders you find in your house! Not outside.

Always be on the lookout for tiny signs. Finding the magic in little things is important.

full send fucking cannonball live fast die young

ants are soooo annoying i swear theyll see a cup of water and be like is anyone gonna die in here and not wait for an answer

Spell to not give a shit:

Light a candle, whisper your problem to it, then say: 

“I do not give a shit. 

You can’t make me give a shit.

My last fuck has flown.”

And blow out the candle, symbolizing you blowing out the shit you were supposed to give.

some people think writers are so eloquent and good with words, but the reality is that we can sit there with our fingers on the keyboard going, “what’s the word for non-sunlight lighting? Like, fake lighting?” and for ten minutes, all our brain will supply is “unofficial”, and we know that’s not the right word, but it’s the only word we can come up with…until finally it’s like our face got smashed into a brick wall and we remember the word we want is “artificial”.

Things I've learned so far in my witchcraft practice:

Your intuition is your best friend; better to be wrong and safe than right and silent.

Your digestion knows when something is off.

Not everyone has to believe you, and not everyone is worth telling.

Divination is here to guide you, not to define you.

Protection. Cleansing. Protection. Cleansing. Protection. Clea—

When you get in your own head, you get in your own way.

Magick is science, psychology, intention, and unknowns.

Tools are only focuses; you are all you need.

There is energy in everything; atoms are moving all around us, each working together to keep the universe from unravelling. How bold of us to assume we aren't able to witness that energy.

Ask for permission, not forgiveness; your sister may forgive, but the earth may not.

Even if this is all bullshit (it isn't, in my experience), it's fun, and laughter is the best medicine.

Aloe for burns and antibiotics for infections.

"Let other men go to war; Protesilaus must love."

You don't owe your time, energy, or resources to anyone else, but sharing is often rewarding.

Some information is too valuable to give away; charge for the things you cherish; keep the things you need.

Be respectful of everything. I mean everything.

Research, research, research!

Sometimes the aesthetic is half the fun.

Your blood, your bones, your sweat, your tears; they are all deeply a part of you so long as you're tied to your body. They belong to you for a while, but they're on loan; use them wisely.

Know your present place; know your potential; they are not the same thing.

Subtle Witchcraft Tips

(coming from a closeted witch of 3-4 years)

stitch sigils or runes into your clothing - use a thread that’s the same colour of the fabric for extra subtlety

use bandanas to veil

display certain items as if they’re just decorative - all of my crystals are on a shelf and when my family asks i just tell them i like crystals! they’ve now assumed i’m a geology nerd lol

look into tea magick! tea is such a powerful tool for witchcraft and simply stirring your tea with intention can be a form of magick

if you wear makeup, paint sigils on your face with your foundation or concealer before blending

similarly if you wear nail polish, paint sigils on your nails

use perfumes or body products with certain scents that correlate to certain meanings e.g my shower gel and body oil are both lavender scented

create a shoebox altar - this makes it small and easy to hide

household herbs and spices can easily be used in spells!!

remember that a pendulum doesn’t have to be a fancy crystal on a chain, any small weight on a string can work just as well

any basic candle can be used in spells

research the correspondences of wearing rings on certain fingers

i love doing kitchen magick!! it’s so easy to incorporate into everyday life without blatantly being a form of magick

house plants can be great in magick

i know i briefly mentioned sigils before but don’t underestimate how powerful sigils can be!!

create small spell jars that you could easily hide

and remember: your craft is uniquely your own. don’t let anyone tell you what is and isn’t required to be a valid witch. i’ve had to be subtle about my practice for years and it’s taken a while for me to realise that i’m just as much of a witch as someone who openly practices.

blessed be <3

For somebody with asthma I sure as hell work with smoke an awful lot.

Reblogging this in order to gaslight myself because I know damn well I will burst into tears the second even someone I ruthlessly hate slightly raises their voice at me.

“Sticks And Stones May Break My Bones But Words Will Never Hurt Me”

A lot of us have probably heard this proverb at some point in our lives. Most of us know this phrase to be mostly untrue. Keep this sigil to make the phrase true by lessening the effect of other people’s words on you.

Literally please go send this wonderful witch some love and ask for their insight! they reply quickly and efficiently and are so so kind and helpful 🤍🤍🤍

Free pendulum questions!

Feel like doing some free readings for you guys! If you can give initials and sign, that would help a lot

I'm awake for no reason so I wrote a poem.

Have we learned nothing?? Is it not called "getting your rocks off" for a reason sire?

Stop assigning genders to the the sun and moon, you freaks! They are just rocks. Sexy sexy rocks, but rocks nonetheless
