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.
if your hot witch summer has been too cold and rainy, use this spell to summon the sun.
This spell is an invocation spell, meaning it is only to be used for the purpose of summoning to aid only a magic user or their consenting targets with a specificpurpose. Examples of such purposes may be to get a tan, to aid one’s gardening, to ensure nice weather for outdoor activities, to attract a friendly visit from certain natural beings, etc. Do not use the sun’s magic with malicious intent, under any circumstances, or may it evade you forever ❤️ TERFS/SWERFS DO NOT HAVE PERMISSION TO REBLOG OR USE MY SPELLS WHATSOEVER.
you will need :
rain water from the most recent rainfall
art supplies
any kind you like, can be as simple as a post-it note and a hotel pen or as advanced as a full oil painting easel setup. it doesn’t matter.
some outdoor space that gets loads of sun.
garden, patio, parking lot, porch, windowsill, balcony, terrace, etc. all work. as long as the sun likes it.a south facing window would work too but i don’t have written instructions on containing rainwater. protect your wood and stuff from water when you do this. i know that you would’ve remembered to if i hadn’t reminded you, because you’re pretty smart, but i just wanted to remind you all anyways.
a rock.
can be any size, mine is pretty large because it’s a decorative stone for my garden.
a relaxing activity.
i chose bong rips and tarot reading. you can choose dumpster fires and mosh pits. you can choose tea and cartoons. you can choose hiking and taking pictures for instagram. you can choose sex and cleaning. you can choose sports and online poker. i don’t care. the sun doesn’t care. choose to do whatever makes you happy and relaxed.
a way to shower or clean yourself with water.
if you don’t have a shower/bathtub :: any public water parks, or sprinklers and hoses, a lake or the ocean … all work fine. for road trippers, truck stops often have showers you can pay like five dollars usually to use. the warm, half-empty water bottles that accumulate in the car could rinse you off. whatever, just a way to get water on your body to get cleaned off a bit.
how to cast the spell :
first you need to set up your workspace. if you cast circles, you may need to do that too. i don’t cast circles, so i don’t include that in any of my instructions. collect your materials, go to your outdoor area on an overcastday.do not cast this spell while it is raining. it is fine if it rains between you casting the spell and the spell manifesting. if it starts raining half way through casting the spell, you’ll need to re-collect water and re-cast the spell later.
pour your rainwater on your rock. completely cover it on all sides and edges and curves. you’ll know it’s completely covered because rocks usually change colour when wet. if you’re using a crystal make sure it’s real as well as that it’s safe to soak in water and leave in the sun.
leave your rock in your outdoor area. wave them goodbye and thank them for their energy.
use your art supplies to draw the type of weather you’d like. i would love to see what kind of drawings you guys do as well. if you’d like to see mine, you can message me. i would recommend using these symbols :
a circle for a sun in the middle. it should be small to medium sized. if you’d like for it to be especially hot, draw rays coming from it.
if you’d like to summon a rainbow, draw it as a circle around the sun, if you have drawn rays it should intersect with them.
if you’d like to summon a specific shade of blue for the sky, you can choose to colour the sky around the sun.
if you’d like there to be many clouds, draw clouds in the sky around the sun. only draw clouds over or touching the sun if you’d like to summon more overcast weather.
if you’d like the wildlife to be more active, you may draw birds or other critters in the sky as well.do not draw anything living over the sun or its rays.
go do your relaxing activity. chill out in a healthy way. use your brain while also giving it a well deserved break. think about your life and what you want and what you receive in it. clean yourself off briefly with water. if you’re in the shower/bath at this point, it’s okay to close the ritual off and have a proper shower with soap.

Is a common “baby witch” question I see a lot. I also see it answered a lot, but I rarely see it stated that it’s the opposite in the two hemispheres and I’ve never seen it explained. So here we go.
The powers behind clockwise and anticlockwise are whether you are turning with or against the direction of the sun:
East to West in the Southern Hemisphere (anti-clockwise)
West to East in the Northern Hemisphere (clockwise)
Witch use of these directions probably comes from the Scottish druidic practices and surrounding folklore where sunward, or clockwise in their neck of the woods, was known as deasiland the opposite direction was known as widdershinsortuathal.
Deasil was considered the auspicious direction, whilst traveling widdershins around a temple or conducting a business such as stirring an offering in this direction was bad luck. A tale even told of a boy dancing widdershins around a fairy circle 9 times and being taken by the fairy court as a result.
Now in common magic practice deasil is considered best for healing, drawing magic, and closing circles. Widdershins is used for undoing magic such as opening circles and breaking curses or banishing.
Similarsunward and away from sun rules are found in Tibetan and Hindu cultures, particulalry in the passing and construction of shrines and temples, however which direction is favourable is not consistent across practices even within the same country.

If you’re still struggling with recalling this on your own I highly recommend obtaining a sundial and getting highly acquainted with it so you’re familiar with the suns movement and its translation onto a flat plane (you can make ones at home with paper plates) xoxo
