I am the tea. ☕
As my personal grimoire here has grown, I finally felt it was time to begin compiling posts from amazing witches into lists for people to use as references in their own learning (None of this information is my own, I just feel that it needs to be shared).
So here is my current list of posts relating to the magickal properties and uses of herbs, this is an ever growing list so check back to see if there have been any additions or send me a message if you find a post that you think should be on the list and don’t forget to follow the people who originally posted these amazing information sheet, they really deserve your support.

I made some homemade moth/spider/ant repellent today. I live in a fairly old house so little creepy crawlers are inevitable, I won’t use pesticide or any poisons in my house though obviously so these are some good herbal/natural alternatives. Moths and ants are my main problem, they get into my clothes and bedsheets and it’s just not a fun experience. So the spray is made of peppermint, lemon, rose and lavender oils all of which ants, spiders and moths don’t like. I spray this directly into my clothes drawers and closet and around windows and doors. It smells lovely and keeps the bugs out! The satchels contain cinnamon, cloves, peppermint, lemon peel, and thyme. I put those in my drawers and nestled among my hanging clothes. So far I’ve seen good results! You do have to respray every few weeks and replace satchels every few months though. But over all I think this is a very nice, earth friendly pest control method.
* side note, mice also don’t like a lot of these herbs, specifically mint, so it might be worth a try to use this method to keep them out too.
how beautiful is the sensation of empty when you’re hungry
I really wanted to tell everyone about this cool way to color eggs for Ostara, Easter or any holiday you celebrate. This is all natural and looks so cool.
For this “recipe” you’ll need:
• white eggs
•a lot of onion peels
•cloth or yarn
•if you want you can add rice, flowers, moss etc.
•vinegar, salt and water
Cut the cloth, so you’ll have a piece of it for every egg. The cloth should cover the egg. Then lay down the cloth and put onion peels evenly on it. If you want you can put moss, rice or flowers on the onion peels, they will leave a cool pattern. When you are done with that, put eggs on the cloth pieces and wrap the cloth tightly over the egg but be careful that you won’t break the egg and that onion peels won’t fall out. Wrap some yarn over the cloth carefully and if the cloth isn’t folding open you can tie the yarn.
Put the wrapped eggs inside the pot and pour cold water over them. Add some salt to the water so the eggs won’t break and some vinegar. You can also add some herbs for magickal purposes, for example I always add clove to the boiling water. Boil the eggs for about fifteen minutes then strain them. After you’ve strained them pour cold water over the eggs so the shell will come off easily afterwards. Remove the cloth and everything you wrapped around the eggs and you’re ready. Here are some finished eggs.
I really hope you liked this and if you have any questions, you can always ask me.
