What are some simple things that you do that you think would help another witch?
My list of daily or easy practices requires little to no prep-work
•Use a protection plant ally like a witch’s burr, cloves, thorns, motherwort, black pepper, garlic, or onion. Close your eyes and place your plant ally in your hands. Ask the spirit of the plant if they will offer you protection to see you through the day. Carry it with you.
•Alternatively, you can also use crystals. My go to combo is black tourmaline and red jasper!
•Use a protection archetype tarot card like the Nine of Wands. Nine of Wands, for myself, symbolizes boundaries and protection when it comes to our growth/life path. Place it on your altar with intention since it is a portal to our intentions, our guides, and the liminal, or carry on your person.
•Smoke cleanse the thresholds in your home, yourself, and your loved ones. I personally like rosemary and lavender for this purpose.
•As you leave an offering for your guides/ancestors/deities during your daily conversation with them ask them for their help when it comes to protection.
•Write the word protection or a symbol of protection on a black candle with intention and light.
To charge and activate sigils trace them with a crystal point. You can use clear quartz for anything but if you want to get specific you can use Tigers Eye to activate and charge a protection sigil or use your own correspondences.
1. Getting a text message that reads something like, “You better watch your back! Your life is about to change dude!” after we draw the Death card from our tarot decks. 2. Getting a text message saying, “WHO IS SHE/HE/THEM?!” after we draw The Lovers card from our tarot decks. 3. “You need to cleanse your house. The energy is awful.” 4. “Did you know you have a dragon living in your closet hoarding your clothes?” 5. After getting a gift, we say something like “it’s charmed to help protect you. Don’t worry. I got your back.” 6. “Oh. Drink this herbal tea! It’ll do wonders on your energy AND body!” 7. “Hold this crystal. Good. Don’t let go of it. Why? Because I said so.”
8. “Here, wear this! It’ll help keep your energy balanced.”
9. “Did you say stomach ache?! Peppermint tea! Now! Don’t look at me like that!”
10. “Did you get a promotion?!” after pulling the Ace of Coins from tarot deck.
11. “Don’t do the thing. Stop playing stupid. You know what thing. Don’t do it.”
12. “You got a faery on your shoulder.”
13. “My friend is going to stay the night so he can ward your house. Don’t argue. You need to keep yourself safe. He said you don’t need to feed him or anything like that.”
14. “Smoke cleansing. Do it for the Love of God.” while shoving sandalwood incense cones at you.
15. Hands you a house plant. “It’ll help with the energy in whatever room you put it in. Might I suggest the living room?”
16. “I’ve talked to the ghosts you have in your house and…”
17. “There’s a goetic demon for that”
18. “I don’t have a cat… at least a living one…”
19. “DON’T TOUCH THAT”
20. Draws sigils in birthday cards, Christmas cards, any card
Me too. Which one? Take some educated guesses (All three. I’m all three. Don’t judge me-)
What to do with Moon Water when You Simply Can’t:
Brew coffee/tea
Make ice cubes out of it
Wash your hands/hair/face
Water your plants
Keep a pitcher of it and drink a cup every morning
Make moon water from sparkling water and infuse it with fruits that help you focus/love yourself/energize you/etc
Use it to paint
Rinse your makeup brushes with it after washing them
Put it in your pet’s water dishes
Make a cleansing room spray
Literally just do stuff. Replace normal water with moon water. Splash it on your face, throw some into your washer, or your bath. Just d o s t u f f. Witchcraft doesn’t have to be just Spell Jar, Tarot, Full Spell Casting. Nothing is stopping you from just dousing yourself in moon water to help you get reset.
Happy splashing and blessed be <3
