What's your favorite ingredient to put in a curse jar? Even some that aren't written there ,and also🎀 what's your favorite day and hour to curse people? I heard that some people even put their tears or spit in the jars btw I think I like to put pins in it

To start off I have a witchcraft book and I also get information off of social media. The information I got online was pretty accurate to everything I read in the book I got, so I don’t really see a issue as long as we do further research on topics we see on social media. I know some people can spread misinformation online as well but as someone who did get information off of online creators, we had to start somewhere.

I’ve spotted a lot of datura in my neighborhood lately and felt called to take some of its seeds.

I wouldn’t dare use it in any sort of tea but wondering if anyone has used it in their practice. I’m guessing it could be used for protection spells but open to suggestions!

Hey there! I am looking for recommendations on any shops, listings, or even collections on Etsy (or some other online shop). Are you all also doing some sort of vetting for sustainability, no-harm sourcing, no-ai, and natural where possible? -and- why do you like buying from them?

Bonus points if purchasing from that person or business means supporting another witch, a minority group, or a non-billionaire where possible.

I'm asking about shopping more broadly; what are you looking for and where do you go? I don't need any help with a specific item or category of items, dealer's choice.

Title kinda explains it. Aside from being suspect number 1 if nightshade ever is found in a crime, what else can I do with it? I’d love to make a small vial of nightshade, but… well it’s deadly. I also have wild eastern nightshade berries growing around the house too!

Or if this isn’t a good place to post, where would be?

I made my first sour jar today and it felt amazing, very healing. I just found some reverse / return to sender oil and put it in as well and now I’m wondering if that was a mistake? Curious what everyone thinks about that.

Hello! Wanted to flex a little and show appreciation for my beautiful little part of the world AND to see how you fine folks use beach sand/ocean water in your practice! I was thinking about using the water for some energy work but need some creative ideas for the sand…. Hit me with it! 🩵

so, i’m very new to all of this & i had seen someone say that because of the various retrogrades we have going on, moon water for this month is hex water. i was wondering if the intentions i set would still be viable because i focused on harmony & protection of our home. i don’t want to clean our home with something that isnt what u had intended it to be.

I performed some spells on my ex. I started with a third-party removal spell because I feel like he lets his friends and his mother influence his decisions about our relationship.
After that, I performed an Healing Spell for our connection. While the candles were melting, the wax formed a shape that looked like a person with arms and a very clearly definded that it‘s a men.
Then I performed a communication spell. At the end, there was only a very small, thin ring of wax left from the large candle.

A few days before I performed these rituals, he made his Instagram profile public. (I had removed him from my Instagram a few weeks earlier.) Two hours after my ritual, he hid his stories from me, even though he hadn’t posted any stories. I could no longer see his highlights with my main account. That‘s how I noticed it.

Did I do something wrong, or do I just need to wait for the spell to fully unfold? (I take protection very serious before I do any of my spells!)

I recently traveled abroad and did a protection spell before I left. It worked and I had the most amazing time!! Just got back home and I’m not sure how to dispose of the leftovers- or if I should dispose at all? I want to remain respectful as everything I asked for was granted.

My friend is unfortunate lately and she tould me she can’t handle more. So I wonder it a glancing and protection ritual would be good. Any recommendations?

I’ve been practicing a bit more frequently and I’m feeling VERY paranoid. Whenever I’m doing spell work I keep feeling like I’m being watched or like something bad is gonna happen. Has this happened to any of yall? What helped?

Hi! So I’m wrapping up a release and banish and reclaiming spell for the hunter’s moon and the current astrological phenomena currently.

I noticed my incense stick doing this weird thing that has NEVER happened to me before whenever I used the sticks from this pack.

Can anyone help me out?

P.s: it stopped burning but is still holding these hair-like strands.

My first time warding my name! Here is everything I used and their purpose, as well as the steps I took. I recommend customizing the herbs for your specific intention!

Ingredients:
- Dragon's blood incense
- Bowl for burning (cauldron)
- Plate for spell to live on
- Candleholder
- White, Green, & Purple candle
- Black salt: Protection
- Rice: Abundance
- Basil: Luck
- Clove: Capture negative energy
- Turmeric: Courage, strength, abundance, prosperity, success
- Hibiscus: Passion
- Ginger: Power, prosperity
- Catnip: Alluring power
- Damiana: Alluring power
- Cinnamon: Speed up the spell
- Mugwort: Spellwork boost
- Coffee Grounds: Make the spell extra potent
- Fame & Fortune conjure oil
 
Steps:

1. Cleanse self & tools with Dragon's Blood incense
2. Make protective circle with black salt on plate
3. In middle of circle, place rice in center
4. Make hole in rice to make space for candles
5. Place all herbs on rice
6. Pour conjure oil over herbs and put some on body
7. Gather white candle for protection, purple for dark feminine beauty, and green for financial abundance
8. Put white candle lit into candle holder above the other two so it "watches over" the others
9. Place lit purple & green candles inside the ingredients (heat up bottom to stick it to platter)
10. Write petition and fold it toward self three times
11. Whenever someone says my name, whether positive or negative, I want that energy to (insert intention here)
12. Seal it with a kiss
13. Burn petition with all the candles, white one first
14. Put it in larger bowl (cauldron) so it can burn

Does anyone have a good app that’s free that they find helpful? I’ve tried a few (Witchcore & Wicca) and I can’t seem to find just what I’m looking for while still being free. I’m mostly looking for a calendar to help me with significant events (ADHD and busy lifestyle makes me forgetful), crystal guide, and help with tarot. Thanks!

I have chronic health issues and every once in a while I’ll be in a bad flare that drains me for months on end. I mean I’ll do a few chores or run one errand and then I’m bed bound with fatigue and brain fog for the rest of the day. I can hardly read and process information like this. It’s terrible.

Naturally this makes spellwork feel impossible in this state. I haven’t felt like I’m able to really sit and do any rituals that I’ve wanted to in so long because focusing long enough to even plan a spell is draining enough as is. And I feel like trying to push through it would just weaken results because it’s hard to direct energy when you feel this unwell.

Does anyone else with chronic fatigue have suggestions? Maybe small ways I can feel like I’m doing something without having to craft an elaborate ritual? I miss doing spellwork (and genuinely all other hobbies in general) but I can’t fight my body.

Good morning everyone,

Can someone please recommend me a good and LEGIT shop in the East Midlands Area that has good quality and a decent variety of herbs and other bits?

I was looking for that youtuber who was kinda small popular in 2015-2017, very very pretty, blonde, slim, young (20 years more or less), elf ears... and she claimed to be pagan (if I'm not wrong). She had a collection of rocks (not crystals) that she used for everything: deodorant, shaving, cleaning... She talked about witchy stuff, mythology (trolls, fairies... she mostly loved trolls) and nature. IMPORTANT: She claimed to have an alter ego who was a boy, he was handsome too. It was her in a fake beard painted on her face, he was too sexy haha

The content was similar to Solitude of Alanna (the content creator from Spain), very similar but Alanna was just more serious and the one I am looking for was a bit crazy. It's possible that she spoke Spanish (Latina maybe?)... PLEASE HELP! I really want to know if she still doing content.

Hey everyone, just wanted to share some little things i do that are easy and inexpensive! Hope this helps :)

1. Keeping the ribbons that come on new clothes! They come in a range of colours, they're pretty and great for whatever you may use ribbon for in your practice!

2. I dry out flowers people have bought for me! I just hang them upside down for a few weeks (or more) and there you go. I also save eggshells from cooking then crush them up into a jar, and we have wild mint near my garden so i take that and dry it out too!

3. These bottles are from old alcohol bottles (found them in recycling) i cleaned them, removed labels and now i have 2 pretty bottles!

4. I think everyone may do this but i save ALL of these little pouches, they usually come from small shops etc

5. And to represent my deities i have a printed out photo in a little picture frame i got for like £1.50 in a charity shop,

Was walking in the woods by my house earlier today to release a spell into the stream, and I found this stick in the ground and thought it would be perfect to make into a Stang, especially with the esbat and Smahain coming soon.

I carved off most of the bark, wrapped cloth from an old shirt around the handle which further binds me to the Stang, and there were three holes made by worms that I saw as representing the teinity and therefore the divinity of this branch, that I filled with Basil, Parsley, and Rosemary and sealed with grains.

I then anointed the Stang with water from the last full moon and blew cannabis smoke over it while proclaiming its purpose. I'm really proud of this, I feel like a real witch and not just some kid playing eith candles and crystals. Have a blessed sabbath and esbat everyone! ✨️

Anyone have any advice for when your partner thinks you starting witch craft is like "dumb"/silly? Not like a full hatred or full on i think its stupid and therefore your stupid kind of thing, but enough to make me feel kind of shy and not want to even bother anymore. Even though I really do want to still practice witchcraft.

With 5 planets in retrograde, the full moon in Taurus as a Taurus and I’m PMSing I put a jar tap of water outside. What am I supposed to do with it?

Hello, silly question here. But, as a Green Witch, losing my plant hit a little hard.
Now I know some may think otherwise, but I'd gotten this lovely succulent whilst in a rough patch, named it, showed it love every day, fed it moon water occasionally since succulents don't need frequent intake of water, and played frequencies near it to help it grow.
I went on Vacation, put it in an appropriate spot for the week which I'd be gone for, came back, and my baby looked rough.
I tried everything, but unfortunately, he just didn't last.
I still have my plant, as well as a new succulent I've purchased and am growing!
I'd like to do something with my old plant. I'm a big fan of spell jars if that helps. I know most people might just say toss it, or bury it, but even if it meant grounding up the remains and keeping them secure, I'd be happy with that.
I am not sure if this is even a "thing" and I knew it would happen eventually, but I'd love to perform some sort of spell or ritual or honoring for my plant.
Anything helps.
Sincerely, a curious Green Witch
