It Was Only Recently That I Truly Understood The Power And Significance Of Offerings

Putting the craft in witchcraft by making a hole in a coin to make a charm but the coin is refusing to let me make any progress other than a little dent, bending three nails in defiance

Dear Mother,

Let this be enough, let me be enough. Let me turn the corner to health and wealth and a full life. Let me find the wishes and desires I've always yearned for. Let me always have my needs fulfilled, my wants considered. Let there be healing, let there be freedom.

Let there be You. Your presence, Your signs. Your guidance, Your love.

Let me be worthy of You.

Witch Tip 109

Music.

Makes.

Everything.

Better.

Wanna hex someone? Play [insert some sort of rap/angry/music that makes you wanna fight here]

Wanna banish a demon? The only acceptional music is the Doom Ethernal soundtrack babyyyyy [or cocomelon...]

Want some self love or happiness? Play some hyperpop or that pop music from the 2010s [jessie j is specifically good for this]

Need some protection? Play some boss music from your favorite video game [or whatever makes you feel less vulnerable]

See, music can fix everything!

The Scorpion's sting spell

If someone wishes you harm then this spell is for you.

What you'll need:

Black paint

black pepper

Lemon juice

Black or red salt { you're choice }

Cayenne pepper or any hot dried pepper of your choice, the hotter the better.

Cedar powder

dried saint John's wort

A mirror

What you'll do:

Take your mirror and cleanse it how you see fit then set it aside. Take your dry ingredients and three drops of lemon juice then mix it with the paint.

Paint the back of your mirror, tell the mirror your intuition, feed it some incense or your own breath then put it in your front window.

This nifty spell will send any curse or hex back at someone but 3 times worse.

The Witch’s Payment

Come to see the witch, have you?  Need a little magic?  Here’s what it will cost you.

Pay me in coin. Grant me wealth by sharing your fortune.  True, you won’t understand what wealth looks like to me, but your luck will certainly help me find it anyway.

Pay me in hearts. Bring me the heart of your pain, your hope, your rage.  Hearts beat, my love.  They sustain.  Place a heart inside something, and you can make it live.

Pay me in keys. Give me a pass-ward into your spirit.  Keys open doors, or shut them, and if you give yours to me, then I can use it to go places I desire to go.

Pay me in rose petals, in cloves, in cinnamon and marjoram and vanilla. And perhaps in something more mysterious.  The gifts of this world are a delight, and when one understands the true value of such things, a gift from them is always a powerful blessing.

Pay me in stars. Lend me the light in your life.  The stars guide you, and if you share them, they may guide me and protect me as well.

Pay me in shadows. Let me fold the sign of your passage into something which stays with me forever.  Give me your cloth, your paper, your sigils and names and the marks of your presence, and I shall grant our friendship life of its own.

Seeking payment from a witch, for that which she weaves?  Don’t shy away from the jar of spiders, from the pouch of rose petals, from the strange little dagger or the box of matches.  She knows what you need, and she’s come prepared to pay.

Nothing is free. Everything is costly. The future costs the present, so we pay in gifts.  Thus, we avoid debt, and live happily ever after.

Post Your Practice

Please!

We gotta start posting about our practices more and what we find through research, experimentation, things we experience, etc.

Not the super sacred or private stuff, just like,

that tea spell you did? Write about it.

That glamour for your acne? Spill the beans, bestie!

Learn a new fun fact? Share the info!!

Because it'll inspire others to do the same.

It doesn't have to be super decorative, aesthetic posts! It doesn't have to look like an academic paper!! It can be a picture of a sticky note with a spell idea scribbled on it!!!

I wanna see more people telling us about their tarot readings, their one-off spell that maybe didn't work, the thing they picked up from the thrift store that they plan on using as a spirit vessel, how energy flows for them, how they view magic, and so much more.

And don't think that you can't or shouldn't post because you're new or because you're inexperienced.

Everyone started at the same place: The beginning.

so please, post your practice!! <3

a pocket of calm 🐙❤️

you ever speak to your best friend and it just absolutely centres you. oh yeah none of that shit matters. I love you

Knots of Chaos Curse

This is a fabulous spell to use on someone who hurts others for his or her own benefit.

Materials:

- Length of jute or hemp cord cut to the height of your target.

Find the center of the cord and tie the first knot there, saying:

"By knot of one, you come undone,

Tie the second knot to the right of the first, saying:

By knot of two, chaos brews,

Tie the third knot to the left of the first, saying:

By knot of three, you'll want to flee,

Tie the fourth knot to the right of the second saying:

But knot of four just lock the doors,

Now alternating left and right, tie the remaining knots as follows chanting the related verse.

The fifth knot:

By knot of five, you lose your drive,

The sixth knot:

By knot of six, your mind plays tricks,

The seventh knot:

By knot of seven, you'll wish for heaven,

The eight knot:

But knot of eight just slams that gate.

The ninth knot:

By knot of nine, your strength declines,

The tenth knot:

By knot of ten, you cannot win,

The eleventh knot:

By knot of eleven, you'll wish for seven,

The twelfth knot:

But that is shelved by knot of twelve.

The thirteenth knot:

It's the thirteenth knot that does you in

And leaves you paying for your sins.

It brings you right down to your knees

And leaves you begging for release.

But none shall come until you've paid

For what you've done, the games you've played,

The folks you've hurt, the lives you've frayed.

And only then shall you receive

Your life again and a reprieve."

Bury a hole at least nine inches deep and bury the cord in the ground.

The Daemonic Witxh's notes: this is a very effective curse and well deserved for those that abuse and harm others on a regular basis. As far as disposal goes, if you don't want to bury it or cannot, you can throw it somewhere else. Get creative. Think of your enemy and the best place to put it. If you feel you might want to untie it at a later date, you can keep it somewhere. I have a cigar box I use for such spells. Also, you can dress the cord in a type of oil after. Banishing, confusion, domination oil, etc. I've had this in one of my grimoires for years and this has become a favorite!

As I always recommend, strengthen your shields/wards and make sure you are doing protection spells on yourself regularly.

You can and probably should buy your first tarot deck!

My first deck was gifted to me by friends on my birthday, following the tradition by all means and then some. It was my first real tarot deck, I loved everything about it and it was a very thoughtful gift by very good friends. A couple of years later, I came across another one I really liked and after some time of contemplating if I needed two decks (lol) I gave in and bought it

The connection I have with the deck I personally chose and got for myself is not even close to the connection I had with the gifted one

The gifted one would often "short circuit" and give random cards that had no correlation to my question and formed no answer, just pure nonsense. The energy would also feel heavy and thick like trying to run through a swamp. I tried everything to fix it with no result, eventually deciding it was because I was not very experienced but no, even after all this time it's still the same

The deck I chose hasn't given me any problems at all so far. The energy feels welcoming and refreshing, all the cards I pull work in perfect harmony with each other and the answers are clear as day

There's a lot of reasons why people gifted others their first tarot deck back in the day. People's views on witchcraft and divination meant it could be dangerous for you to buy a deck because everyone would know about it and assume stuff. Things were also more expensive and not (as) mass produced or easily accessible so a deck could be a family heirloom of sorts that was handed down to you

Things are certainly different now and at the end of the day, your deck is a tool and you have to vibe with your tools to use them effectively
