I love you psychotic pagans

• Pagans that get delusions that interfere with worship!

• Pagans that get religious delusions! Delusions of grandeur! Delusions of control!

• Pagans who can’t discern between hallucinations, delusions, and the Gods!

• Pagans who get hallucinations of the Gods!

• Pagans that get auditory hallucinations! Tactile hallucinations! Visual hallucinations! Olfactory hallucinations! Internal hallucinations!

• Pagans who get intrusive thoughts!

• Pagans who experience negative symptoms that make it hard to worship!

• Pagans whose psychosis makes it hard to worship in general!

• Pagans who think their psychosis brings them closer to the Gods!

• Pagans who get disorganized thoughts. Who can’t pray because of them!

• Pagans on medication! Pagans who can’t be medicated, who don’t want to be medicated, who aren’t medicated!

You’re all seen. You’re all loved. The Gods understand when things get tough.

For spacekin, galaxykin, cosmickin, etc.

You are wonderful and amazing and 100% valid. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Your soul is a swirl of blues and purples, gently weaved together and sprinkled with stardust. Your brains hold the memories of being in the infinite unknown, a universe for you to explore to your heart’s content. Some may miss being the ruler of galaxies; don’t worry, your magical kingdom of stars awaits your arrival in your next life.

Witchy Tools: Black Salt

Used For

Black salt, or Witch’s salt, is used primarily for banishment, protection, and repelling things or beings. However, it has also been used in curses/hexes and in rituals. It can protect physical spaces, against nightmares, against negative energy, harmful rumors, and unwelcomed people. It can also help with removing curses and dealing with negative thoughts and feelings, as well as getting rid of unwanted entities.

Materials

White salt (rock or regular)

Black pepper (whole kernels work best)

Charcoal (use activated charcoal to make it edible)

Ashes (any kind, but use coconut ash to make it edible, and use protective plant ash to make the protection effects stronger)

Optional: cast iron scrapings, coffee grounds, dirt

Process

Grind together the ingredients with the help of a mortar and pestle. Use your intention and will while mixing to give it its power, remembering what you are using it for, the same as you would with a spell. Black salt will either be a spell as is or be a component of one in the future, so magically charging it while making it is just as important as it would be in any other kind of magical working. Mix all the components together until you have a mixture that has turned fully black and looks pretty uniform.

You can also add small bits of other herbs and spices to the mixture to make it more aggressive, protective, etc of a mixture, if you want a more targeted approach. Adding things like chili and paprika make it more aggressive, while things like rosemary or sage make it more protective, for example.

Why it Works/History

It has unrelated origins in Hoodoo, Western Alchemy, Appalachian folk magic, and European folk magic. Beyond that, a lot of the origins and history of black salt - as well as when it first began to be used - is hard to find.

The salt is for protection and purification or absorbing negative energy, the black pepper is for protection (especially from bad people) and warding or banishing negativity, the ashes are for concealing and protection (especially if ashes from protective plants are used), and the charcoal is used to get rid of bad magic. The optional iron scrapings are good for protection from various entities, while the optional coffee grounds are good for keeping out entities and for protection. The optional dirt is good for grounding, as well as whatever additions the type of dirt it is adds to the mixture (for example, graveyard dirt is good for warding and banishing, while dirt from the witch’s home is good for protecting the household).
