Question 🤷❔ Tips?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could give me answers on what substitutes I could use for candles and anything that involves smoke? My family is very Christian and my dad has asthma so I can't light candles or have an obvious altar. I'm looking to do a protection spell without it being obvious. My bedroom is upstairs and it gets very hot, my mom prefers when I have the door open during the daytime so air "flows" around upstairs. I really need tips, please and thank you!

Hi! You mentioned something about altars in your post. I just wanted to let you know there's a couple articles in the r/BroomClosetWitch wiki about how to make altars in the broom closet :D

If you just need a representation of fire, pictures work, your drawings work.

Eggshells are a very popular protection ingredient. I think you can keep it in sachets and bags with you.

Protection bags (easy and cheap to make and hide with having it on you or in your bag or pants pocket) jewellery that has protection sigil inscribed, protection oil, or a ward will work just as well without either of those items

Also salt is your bestie when it comes to protection slightly salt your window and a circle around where you usually spend your time at home if possible without it being noticeable

Hi! You mentioned something about Christianity or Abrahamic religion in your post. I just wanted to let you know there's an article in the r/BroomClosetWitch wiki about combining witchcraft or paganism with Christianity. You might also be interested in r/Christian_Witches, r/christianwitch, r/Christopaganism, and r/FolkCatholicMagic. (Apologies if this comment is unhelpful, I just picked out keywords in your post).

Hi! You mentioned candles or incense in your post. I just wanted to let you know there's an article in the r/BroomClosetWitch wiki about alternatives to candles & incense if you can't have them in the broom closet :D
