New video out on my channel explaining what Candlekeep is. If you’ve seen the leak for the newest 5e supplement “Candlekeep Mysteries” Then you’ll probably be curious about the library.
It has been a long time since I’ve updated you all on my reading policies, and thought it may be valuable to upload a new, polished post.
In the meantime, I have received plenty of orders–I’ve been so honored to deliver valuable readings to members of the community. Since the world is picking back up and my illness is under more control, I have made the decision to modify some of my prices slightly.
You can be reassured that I have been practicing witchcraft and offering readings for nearly 17 years. My prices reflect my experience. Readings or services you receive will be valuable.

Payment Method:
I accept payment through my Ko-fi which can be found here- https://ko-fi.com/X8X8BKJH. It uses PayPal (which can also be used with credit card!)
☀Important: After you pay, include your Tumblr username in your message and please message (not ask) me here! That allows me to keep track of everyone who has ordered :)
–
Readings and Services:
☀ Please note that my deity and aura readings are in a “pay-per-paragraph” format. Most people purchase 3-5 paragraphs, but I will not omit any information if you purchase a shorter reading. Having more paragraphs simply means that I can be more thorough in my analysis of your reading.
Deity Readings
$9 Per Paragraph: Basic Deity Reading- This reading entails a detailed description of the deities that are interested in working with you, the pantheons they are from, and very thorough information about ritual processes, how to honor them, etc.
$15 Per Paragraph: Deity Communication- This reading is more open and thorough than the other, and the price reflects the complexity of ritual I need to perform to communicate. Through this reading, I can communicate with the deiti(es) of your choice and ask them questions on your behalf. This reading is popular for those who have already been worshipping a deity and are interested in how effective their worship is.
Love Readings
$12 Per Paragraph: Using a combination of tarot and other divination methods, I will answer questions for you about current or potential relationships.
$60 Per Spell: I will write and cast a spell for you relating to a personal relationship. I will offer all information about the written spell for your future use.
Tarot Readings
$6 Per Card/Paragraph: Basic Tarot Reading- This reading allows you flexibility in your payment– you can pay for a 3-paragraph elaboration on 1 card, or analysis of 3 cards. Depending on the complexity of your situation, you can order a custom-made spread in addition to your reading. (see below)
$15 Per Spread: Custom Spread- While this service is generally suggested to be ordered in conjunction with a reading, you are also free to order this on its own. With this service, I analyze your need and create a full tarot spread to allow you to read the cards in the most efficient and cohesive way possible.
$X Custom: Complex Custom Reading- This listing is reserved for readings of 15 cards of more, as they require considerably more labor and do not fall under the flat rate of $6 per card. If you’d like a very complex spread, please contact me ahead of time so we can arrange payment and a spread.
Misc. Divination Readings
$12 Per Paragraph: Aura Readings- I will explain what color your aura is and what it means for your life.
$3 for 3: Pendulum Readings- You provide 3 yes/no questions, I ask my pendulum! You have a choice between my 5 pendulums (Olivewood, Red Jasper, Labradorite, Opal, or Cherry Quartz)
Other Services
$27 Spell Writing: I will assess your situation and write you a very in-depth spell with instructions for casting, materials you can use, mental state to be in, when to cast, etc. and will also be fully available for you to ask questions of clarification if you need any help at all.
$12 Casting: In addition to writing your spell, I will also cast it for you. This is a good option for those of you who may be in a situation where you cannot feasibly cast a spell in safety. This option is also okay for spells that I have not written, but there may be an upcharge if I need to purchase materials for the casting.
$9 Sigil: I will create a sigil for whatever situation/use you need. These will be sent traditionally on paper, as I use a form of meditation to draw my sigils and cannot do it digitally.
Note: I also practice spirit-work and more complex/intense forms of witchcraft. If you need a different service, please message me and we can work something out. I am capable of casting far more complex spells–these are not common orders, and will have to be negotiated fully.
Thank you for your time, and feel free to reach out if you have any more questions!
EMERGENCY READINGS: I have unfortunately had to leave my job for the time being to care for an ill relative. My income is very unstable right now, and I need about $350 to pay for vehicle repairs. Please boost!
For anyone who hasn’t come across dragon blood before, it is a great way to give your written spells a boost.
I know it’s old craft and in modern times witches no longer need to make their own inks but I personally find natural inks more potent than modern synthetic alternatives.
To avoid any confusion this is for positive spell work. If you you are cursing or hexing you need the bat blood version (don’t worry no actual bats or dragons are hurt in the making of this ink, both are just herbal.)
Dragon Blood ink
This is the easiest method to make the ink. No thickeners or cooking are required. Just the right Ingredients
Warnings.
Neat alcohol is used in this method which is highly flammable, do not make this anywhere near a naked flame and in a well-ventilated location.
Ingredients:
15g Real dragon blood Resin (see notes below)
70g Pure alcohol 99% (see photo)
There are three types of dragon blood resin on the market. Real traditional resin called ”Dracaena Draco”. The cheap version called ”Daemonorops” and finally fake resin which tends to be a cheaper version like frankincense dyed red.
For this method to work ensure that you are using real Dracaena. The cheaper versions do not dissolve in alcohol.
Method:
Simply grind the resin slightly, it doesn’t need to be really fine as it will dissolve.
Add in the alcohol and stir for about five minutes. To thicken allow to evaporate for three hours stirring each hour.
All the resins are slightly different so test it now for colour. Add more resin if needed. If there are impurities sat at the bottom filter before bottling.
The alcohol preserves the ink making it last for ages, a slight shake will be required before use to remove any separation.
To be grounded and centered is necessary to be mindful in your daily activities. It is also crucial, as we know, after a spiritual practice or after magick working. And in an overall view, to be grounded is good for you, as you can be a better version of yourself. So let’s tap in. Here are some grounding techniques which works for me:
The basic grounding technique is mindful deep breading.
Wherever you are, preferably in a quiet place, close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. Feel the fresh air filling your abdomen, your lungs, and your throat, then exhale slowly. Repeat until you feel connected.
If you’d like to deepen the effect, add a visualization.
Sit or lay down comfortably, eyes closed, and imagine that you are on the ground. Feel the soil beneath you, and imagine a flow of energy coming down your body and connects with Earth’s depths. The element you’ll be working with is obviously earth, so you may imagine yourself as a tree, deepening its roots into the ground.
Another option is using crystals.
Basically, any black, brown, or red crystal will do the work, as they refer to our first, root chakra which connects us to the physical plane of being. Personally, I prefer tiger’s eye, black onyx, and red jasper in my practice. As you meditate, place the crystal of your choice in your left hand (the ‘energy receptive’ hand), take deep breaths, and sense the crystal’s energy, let it ground you.
Note – make sure you’ve cleansed the crystal before use.
Foods and herbs for grounding:
Grains and their products.
Vegetables and berries.
Basil, oregano, thyme, cinnamon, ginger, black pepper, and rosemary.
Bonus–
Grounding herbal tea recipe:
1 cup of boiled water
1 cinnamon stick
3-4 slices of ginger
1 lemon slice
1-2 tsp. of honey
Mix the ingredients (except the honey) and leave it under a cover for 5 min. (so the essential oils won’t evaporate). Add the honey and enjoy your tea.
This morning I crafted up some protection oil. This can be used for anointing candles, spaces, yourself and anything you want to protect. Let’s look at the recipe
✧ Sunflower Oil
You can basically use any carrier oil. I use sunflower oil because it’s inexpensive and carries sun properties of healing and happiness
✧ Pink Himalayan Salt
Salt has great protection properties and pink salt is great for enhancing spellwork and it’s powers. A little boost for everything else in the oil
Sub: any salt you associate with protection (normal salt works too)
✧ Rosemary
A great catchall but I infused the intention of protection into this rosemary for the oil
Sub: Any herb you associate with protection. Sage and juniper are others
✧ Lavender
It smells nice…and also! It’s good for inducing a sense of calm protection. When protected with this oil, I want to feel calm and safe
Sub: Any herb associated with calming. Like chamomile! (Tea bags anyone?)
How do I put it together?
☾ Gather your herbs. To start the intention train, make sure you know why you’re grabbing each ingredient. Think about it. This begins infusing your ingredients with intention
☾ Place the ingredients into a mortar and pestle, thinking about the intention of each. This can include a keyword (protection, calm) and also thinking about the feeling (how does it feel to be protected and safe?)
☾ Grind the ingredients up into powder while thinking of intention. You can infuse while grinding clockwise to bring protection
☾ Add a bit of powder to little glass jars or whatever container you would like to use for your anointing oils
☾ Fill the rest with oil. Leave air room to shake it up
☾ Enjoy! (Shake before every use! The powder will sink to the bottom)
Hello again, friends! It’s Winter time where I am and it’s a wonderful time to share my spiced wine/mulled wine recipe that I personally love to use. Let’s get into it:
Ingredients:
The Wine: •2 bottles of red wine, either a Cabernet Sauvignon or a Merlot (I adore the Apothic brand wines. I use Apothic Red a lot.)
The Spices: • Cinnamon • Clove • Star Anise • Cardamom
The Fruit: • Grapefruit • Lemon • Orange
The Additional: • Honey
**I will say this now that I’ve used both fresh and dried fruit, and think both ways comes out lovely. Use whatever you have on hand and in whatever amounts you prefer.**
Directions: • Pour the bottles of wine into a pot large enough to hold them both and turn the heat of the stove on low. • As it begins to warm (I dip my finger in to test, no judgement please), begin adding the spices in amounts that you like. - For 2 bottles of wine, I use anywhere from 3-4 cinnamon sticks, a small handful of cloves, 3-5 star anise and a small handful of cardamom. • When the mixture begins to come to a boil/simmer, add in the fruit. I prefer sliced circles but wedges certainly work as well! • Cover and leave for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. • Ladle into a cup and enjoy, sweetened with honey to taste!
**Note: • Premade/bought mulling spice blends work perfectly well for this as well.
Prerequisites: Neutral Evil, caster level 1st; see Special, below
Benefit: You may – at any time, as a free action – choose to gain all the physical benefits and drawbacks of Corruption Stage 2[Hive corruption].
You retain this Corruption Stage for one minute per character level you possess; your Corruption cannot increase to Stage 3.
You do not acquire Manifestations for your Corruption normally. Instead, any time that you would normally gain a feat* (including a Bonus Feat, with your GM’s permission, such as from the Aberrant Bloodline), you may instead select any one Manifestation for which you otherwise meet the prerequisites. You receive the benefits of any Manifestation selected in this way only while you possess a Corruption Stage. Your Manifestation level – for purposes of this feat – is always equal to one half your character level, rounded up.
*with your GM’s permission, you may also choose to gain access to a new Manifestation in place of an Oracle Revelation; oracles with this ability often possess access to the Mystery of the Dark Tapestry.
At will as a move action, while you possess a Corruption Stage, you may expend a single spell or spell-slot of 1st level or higher to gain any one additional Manifestation for which you meet the prerequisites. Your access to this special Manifestation lasts for one minute. You always gain all effects of the Stain associated with any Manifestation that you acquire via use of this feat; Stains acquired by gaining a temporary Manifestation always last for 24 hours, even after the Manifestation has faded.
During this time, whenever you summon one or more creatures that would normally be available with the entropic,fiendish, or resolute template using a summon monster spell (or an effect that mimics such a spell), you may choose to instead apply the Hive Creature Simple Template to each such creature.
In addition, while this ability is active, you add hive larva swarm and hive warrior to your summon monster list as 4th level creatures; thus, you could summon a single hive warrior using summon monster IV or summon 1d3 hive larva swarms using summon monster V. You also add hive queen to your summon monster list as a 7th level creature; thus, you could summon a single hive queen using summon monster VII or summon 1d3 hive queens using summon monster VIII.
Any damaging spell or spell-like ability that you use while you possess a Corruption Stage deals half of its damage as acid damage.
At 9th level, you may expend a single spell or spell slot of 4th level or higher as a standard action to use either of the following abilities:
dimension door. This magical transportation must begin and end in a square that includes a hive larva swarm.
apply the swarmblooded template to any one living, corporeal creature within close range (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) with 15 or more Hit Dice (such as a hive queen); this template persists for one minute per caster level you possess. Any creature enhanced in this way always bleeds hive larva swarms when injured.
Whenever you summon a Hive creature, you may choose to summon any such creatures as a move action (rather than as a full-round action); if you do so, the range of your summon monster ability drops to 0 ft.: all creatures summoned by use of this ability must appear in a square either directly adjacent-to your own or overlapping your own (in the case of a hive larva swarm), emerging directly from your own flesh.
At will as a move action, you may cause any one hive creature that you have summoned to explode and die, activating its Death Throes special ability as appropriate for creatures of the hive subtype.
Special: While this feat is active, you may never refuse any direct order from any anunnaki, up-to and including such suicidal orders as performing a coup de grace upon yourself and then voluntarily failing the Fortitude save. You may not harm or endanger any anunnaki; if ordered to do so by another anunnaki, you may instead take your own life. You may not deliberately speak any lie to an anunnaki, including bluffing, stating half-truths with the intent to deceive, exaggerating, telling white lies or practicing any other type of intentional misdirection; this applies to all forms of verbal, non-verbal, magical and written communication.
Fortunately, anunnaki in-phase with our reality are rare beyond imagining and this limitation is rarely enforced.
Alternatively, each additional time this feat is selected, you may choose any one living, corporeal creature of CR 6 or less, such as a babau,belker,cave giant,death worm,giantanaconda,girallonorkyton. At will as a full-round action (but see Sudden Evolution, below), you may cause any one hive warrior that you have summoned to explode and die, activating its Death Throes special ability as normal. You then automatically summon a new CR 6 creature of your selected type (above) and apply the Hive Creature Template as you do so; this creature must appear in a square that was immediately vacated by your now-deceased hive warrior.
Sudden Evolution: You may always choose to expend a single spell or spell slot of 1st level or higher to activate this ability as a standard action rather than as a full-round action.
You must have ready access to a fully-built version of the final stat-block for any creature you choose to summon by use of this feat, approved by your GM, before you may use this ability.
Weave of Shadow & Serpent-Magic – Bloodlines & Black Magic / Pathfinder (1st Edition) Spellcaster Feat
You are infused with the coiling, ophidian sorcery of the twisted serpentine.
Brought to you absolutely free to enjoy, to test & to share – as always – by the fine folks of my Patreon.

Prerequisite:Non-good alignment; see Special, below
Benefit: You retain access to this feat only so long as you ritualistically kill at least one sentient creature each month. This ritual requires one full hour of total concentration and must occur on a specific date – chosen by you when this feat is taken – and may not be interrupted in any way in order to be properly completed. You may choose to sacrifice additional creatures at the time of the ritual, increasing the ritual’s completion time by one hour per total victim; for each additional creature ritualistically slain, you become younger by one year. You may not become younger than the starting age for your race by use of this feat.
If you ever lose access to this feat because you fail to make a proper sacrifice, you regain access as soon as you perform the proper ritual.
You add the following spells to any one spell-list you possess at the appropriate level:
4th – beast shape II (serpent only), summon monster IV (1d4+1 venomous snakes; 1d3 asps, constrictor snakes or snake swarms; or venomous snake swarmonly)
5th – beast shape III (serpent only), summon monster V (1d4+1 asps, constrictor snakes or snake swarms; 1d3 venomous snake swarms; or emperor cobraoranacondaonly);quickened summon monster I (as above)
6th – beast shape VI (serpent only), summon monster VI (1d4+1 venomous snake swarms or 1d3 emperor cobras or anacondas only); quickened summon monster II (as above)
7th – summon monster VII (1d4+1 emperor cobras or anacondas; or giant anacondaonly);quickened beast shape I (as above), quickened summon monster III (as above)
8th – summon monster VIII (1d3 giant anacondas only), quickened beast shape II (as above), quickened summon monster IV (as above)
9th – summon monster IX (1d4+1 giant anacondas only), quickened beast shape III (as above); quickened summon monster V (as above)
You also gain these spells as spells known, as appropriate.
You may always choose to summon serpents using a spell granted by this feat as a standard action (rather than as a full-round action, as normal); if you do so, the range of your summon monster spell drops to 0 ft.: all serpents summoned by use of this ability must appear in a square adjacent to your own: emerging from the folds of your cloak, from your shadow, from your wounds or from the blood spilled at your feet, as you desire.
In addition, as a standard action you may sacrifice a single spell of 1st level of higher to teleport (no chance of error) into any space occupied by a serpent that you have summoned. The chosen serpent automatically teleports into your former space (no save). If either you or your targeted summoned serpent cannot legally occupy your respectively-selected new space for any reason, this ability fails: both your 1st-level spell and your action are wasted.
You may always choose to sacrifice a spell of 5th level or higher to teleport in the same way as a swift action, rather than as a standard action.
If you possess 7 or more Hit Dice, once per day as a standard action you may gain the following benefits for a number of minutes equal to your Hit Dice:
You are immune to the attacks and effects of all snake swarms created by use of this ability (see below).
Any effect that grants a bonus to attack rolls, damage rolls, or skill checks against creatures of the snake or animal type (such as a bane weapon, or a ranger’s favored enemy class feature), also grants that same bonus to rolls against you.
Whenever you suffer damage from a confirmed critical hit, suffer bleed damage, suffer slashing damage or die, a snake swarm spills-forth from the injury; at least one square of this swarm must appear in a space directly adjacent to you. If you possess 13 or more Hit Dice, you instead generate venomous snake swarms.
You have no control over swarms released from your body in this way, although these swarms are considered to be summoned by you and vanish after a number of rounds equal to your Hit Dice.
You may always choose to sacrifice a spell of 4th level or higher to use this ability an additional time per day. If you possess 13 or more Hit Dice, you may gain these benefits as a swift action (rather than as a standard action) and may always choose to sacrifice a spell of 7th level or higher to use the ability an additional time per day.
As a standard action, you may expend a spell of 1st-level or higher to gain the benefits of a gaze special attack (see below) with a range of 30 feet; you retain use of this gaze for a total number of rounds equal to your character level. Any living creature who fails her Will save against your gaze (DC 10 + ½ your character level + your Intelligence, your Wisdom or your Charisma modifier, your choice) is marked.
Your gaze may only mark corporeal, living, intelligent creatures. In addition, if the subject of your gaze would not normally have lustful feelings toward you, as per the unnatural lust spell, she receives a +4 bonus on her saving throw.
Whenever you summon a serpent, you may choose for any number of creatures that you summon in this way to emerge directly from the flesh of a foe (or foes) that you have marked. Serpents summoned in this way automatically move – immediately after emerging – to occupy an unoccupied space directly adjacent to the marked foe from which they emerged.
No more than one summoned creature may emerge from the body of any one marked foe when a summoning spell is cast in this way.
The marked target chosen to act as the point of origin for your summoning spell must also succeed at a Fortitude save (DC: 10 + half your caster level + your Intelligence, Wisdom or Charisma modifier, your choice) or suffer an amount of damage equal to 1d6 points of damage per spell-level of the summoning spell plus an amount of damage equal to your Intelligence, Wisdom or Charisma modifier (your choice) and be nauseated until the beginning of your next round.
A successful save halves this damage and negates the nausea effect.
Special: This feat may be gained in place of any Witch Hex.
Campaign Note: Within the Bloodlines & Black Magic setting, this ability is most common amongst witches drawn from the Shadow Bloodline in service to the Serpent of Obsidian Knives; rumors persist that members of the now-vanished Lineage known as the Eyes of Nyx (see page 61) were the truest masters of this black art, although their apprentices were legion. In addition, the Archons task each & every of their loyal servants – including such disreputable Lineages as The Masters (see page 56) – to hunt-down & execute anyone known to practice this technique, seeking to rid the world they now rule of all such dangerous Goetic intrusion.
War water causes hex but it also repels and remove them. Add war water to your bath water and soak yourself with the water as you focus upon your desires. Do this once a week.
This will help to remove all negative energy/hex upon you and keep you open to receive good things and no more obsactles this year.
This is tested and trusted spell that works with no side effect.
Carve the name of the person into the candle. Roll the candle in the web. Nestle the candle in sugar or honey and light it while thinking about them and the good things you see in them.
(Note: this is NOT a love spell. This will only open their eyes to you. It won’t make them fall in love with you. It will not take away their choice or free will. Think of it like someone offering you a dessert that you didn’t know was available. The dessert was there all along and if you want it you can accept it. If you don’t want it, you’re still able to decline it, the choice is yours. I do not support love spells that take away a person’s own choices or thoughts.)
To Attract Luck or Fortune:
Cinnamon (ground or stick)
Nutmeg
Pine Needle (or three drops of pine oil)
A Bay Leaf
A penny
Spider Web
Green Candle
Jar or Satchel
Old Purse or Wallet
Gather cinnamon (ground or stick), nutmeg, pine needle (pine oil works too) , a bay leaf and a penny. Wrap all of these in spider web. It doesn’t have to completely cover it. If you’re using a jar, put everything in the jar, close the lid and melt the candle wax over top. If you’re using a satchel, melt some of the wax over your bundle before placing it in the satchel. Place the jar or satchel in an old purse or wallet for monetary fortune. Carry the jar or satchel with you for an extra boost of good luck.
To Keep Someone Away From You:
Pen
Paper (small scrap)
Spider Web
Write the person’s name on the paper and roll it in the web. Cut the bundle in half and burn each half separately.
(Note: This spell is meant to help bind the energy between you and the person and sever ties. Be completely sure you want to cut this person from your life before you do this spell.)
Spider web is also a great addition to a number of different spells to bind energy/intent or to even help target the focus of your spell.
Please use caution when adding spider web to hexes and curses. Not only will it bind and focus, but it will also magnify it and make it harder to get rid of, because webs are sticky and hard to get out of.
Every week, I choose one amazing, underrated witchblr to feature! I want to make sure that more people discover these great blogs, and also to Wake Witchblr, because there are a LOT of interesting blogs to follow; you just haven’t found it yet ♀️
✧✧✧✧
This is the first post of the series, and I thought it would be appropriate to feature one of my most sweetest, funniest, and closest witchy friend as the first entry: @salemlepis
Sally is a great demonolatress and solar witch, and on her blog you can find many informative posts regarding the two. She’s also a wonderful tarot reader!
Lots of helpful resources overall, and they’re all properly tagged as well. She posts lovely aesthetics in-between too, which is just
As you all know, Sally and I also co-owns The Eastern Coven, an Asian-centric magic server. She is a firm advocate of Asian voices in witchcraft, and I’ll forever admire her for it.
I added more details and a background. Plus tried following better the anatomy that was in the photo lol. Anyway my OC character Flynnizia sitting and studying for her witch crafting classes. Also that girl on the photo in the background is her girlfriend Nelly. Sorta a mini Valentine’s Day theme I added to this. <3
