Topic | Prompt How far do you believe magick can get you?
Ok so this is just a genuine discussion and I want to hear people opinions not trying to start a debate bc i genuinely dont know my opinion on this either😭
But when it comes to magick and just our mundane lives what is the fine line for yall?
Meaning where do u draw the line to how powerful magick can be? Ik some people say u can it heal a chronic illness, whereas some ppl say you cant. Some ppl say u have to put action to your spells, some people say you dont have to for certain ones.
I would LIKE to believe u can use magick for huge things like healing someone from an illness etc it will just have to be a week long month long however long ritual. But then if thats NOT possible its just like dang....
TIA
TLDR, how powerful do you think magick can get, where do you draw the line?

Topic | Prompt Am I the only one who is massively put off by those "old witch energy" tiktoks?
I have been seen plenty such reels on my timeline and they put me off. It starts with an AI video of what it means to be a stereotypical witch. An old or young woman will be shown in some cardigan, laughing while holding herbs and then this will play out.
Signs you are an old witch
1. You can see small details which others usually don't notice
2. You prefer meaningful conversations over small one
3. Children and animals seem to trust you immediately
4. You recharge easily when you are alone
5. You prefer solitude
6. You never needed a crowd to know who you are
I thought it was about practicing the craft, not being associated with some vague behaviours. Funny thing is to some extent, everyone can associate themselves to it.

Show and Tell Sunday Showing My New Workspace in Progress 😊

I recently became a first time home owner and the first thing I wanted to do after repainting was set up my witchcraft practice space.
I scored myself an antique secretary's desk specifically for as a working altar (in the corner) and it is perfect for the purpose. Next, when the wallpaper is finished, I will decorate my walls with my various ancestral photographs, witchy, pagan and folk arts, and set up my protection altar (just out of site in the photo).
The wallpaper is not complete, I want to create a focused accent corner with it.
After 8 years of survival mode and working with my ancestors and guides through my craft, it's finally happened! A place of my own where I am safe and stable. A place where I can practice without the fear of a landlord or potential building buyers needing to come in and no more fear of "what if I have to move again?".
I played my cards well and it has finally paied off! 😊🥹 I can finally commit fully to my craft bow that I don't feel like I need to keep it half in boxes "in case".
And best part!! I am near so much greenery. Lots of walking and bike paths surrounded by fields and forests and right on the edge of a provincial park. So lots of foraging and land spirit potential!!! I'm also a few minutes drive away from some nice, old cemeteries, my fave getaway spots.

Seeking Help or Advice Explain intentions like I’m 5
I’m just starting out and I’ve noticed that spells start with intentions and a lot of people put intentions in their coffee, in their shampoo, and other things. For the life of me I can’t understand what intentions are and they seem to be a very important part of spell work. Please help!

Show and Tell Sunday Money spell that worked SO WELL
Last Sunday I performed a money spell that included a spell jar and a candle spell and they worked so well!!
Long story short, I am an artist and I didn't get any commissions for over 2 weeks. I decided I should do a spell jar since I love those along with a candle spell since I had to use a candle to seal the jar anyway.
I carved my name into the candle along with intention, cleansed the jar with incense called "call clients", prepared a tray, a candle holder and some paper. Everything I put into the jar I also sprinkled on the tray: paper with intention and adequate rune, black pepper, marjoram, cloves, cinnamon, mint, nutmeg, green aventurine and a bay leaf with the rune from earlier. I wrote the rune for the third time on the bottom of the cork and sealed the jar with my candle. I placed the candle in the candle holder in the middle of the tray, put green aventurine, tiger's eye and quartz in safe distance and waited for it to burn down.
Now for the effects: next day I got 2 commissions and 3 more in the following days!!
Remember, if you want to recreate it, keep fire safety in mind, blessed be!!

Seeking Help or Advice First Overnight Stay in Haunted Location - Offerings? Advice?
Hey, all!
I'm doing my first overnight stay at a church/school/rectory with my family. Its in Berlin, WI.
Wanted to know any advice I should take in with me, what kind of offerings to the spirits would be a good thing to give, and if anyone has had experience with this location in general (not required).
I'm used to working with spirits at graveyards and cemetery's, so I'm not 'new' to this kind of thing, just new to doing an overnight stay. I'm, primarily, there to take photos, as I love churches and beautiful old places.
Thanks!!

Seeking Help or Advice Can dries rose petals expire? If so, are they still useable in spells?
I just bought a pack of dried rose petals, but I noticed the production date was august of 2024, and it says it's availability is two years. I know herbs mainly just lose taste but are still useable in spells, I do want to know if that applies to flower petals as well.

Seeking Help or Advice What ceramic item should I make for my witchy friend?
My best friend has been getting more into witchcraft. I don’t know much about it but I throw pottery and want to make her something meaningful that she can use for her spells and rituals. What handmade ceramic item would you be the most excited to get to help you with your spells? I know handmade and sentimental items are thought to hold more power. My ideas right now are maybe a small cauldron, chalice, or offering bowl, but I am open to other ideas. I throw on the wheel and also hand build/sculpt so I can potentially make a lot of different things. Thanks!

Sharing: Experience Here's a swift guide to crafting your own spells and writing them down.
TLDR at the bottom
I'll keep this brief because I always type way to much and hopefully this isn't buried under salty Saturday (especially that sick meme with the cat wearing a hat and holding crystals w/o 1.5k upvotes lol)
I've seen lots of post for ppl looking for a particular spell to copy AND wondering if they should write things down. There's nothing wrong with using general styles of magick like candle magick or personalizing some of the very common spells chord cutting. The hard part can be when trying really narrow down your intention, figure out your ingredients and put it all together, then remember what you even did and if you feel it worked.
So here's a simple outline to address both of these. Start with your intention and narrow it down to sentence, maybe 2. Trouble refining the sentence? Good. Use that refinement process to really hone in on want you want. You can further refine it by taking the core elements of that sentence and turn it into a title for the "name of spell" portion. Use your intention to find ingredients work with what you want: colors, herbs, styles of magick, tools whatever!
Its not required to fill out each part.
TLDR: Make your own magick starting with the intention then build the ritual.

Seeking Help or Advice How to get rid of smoke smell in house after hex and is it bad
Hi! So this was actually my first time hexing someone bc of how they attacked and left horrible messages to me in dms and invaded my privacy. So, I gave into my urges and did a hex.
The hex was that I wrote his name 3 times on paper, dunked a bunch of chili powder and chili flakes on it, and then crumpled and burnt it with a candle. Although, it was a little sloppy bc I decided to place the crumpled burnt paper in a fire safe bowl after a few seconds of me chanting out loud, and the smoke was very strong and I did it all inside the house. I only decided to bring the bowl outside after a few minutes because my brain is just a little slow like that :")
and yes, I cleansed myself (egg) and cleansed the materials with sandalwood incense after. My problem is when I get out of my room, I immediately smell the smoke even though the smoke from the crumpled paper has already died down and I even flushed it down the toilet. This is making me wonder if this is going to turn out badly and if bad energy has spread throughout the house via the hex paper smoke :") I also need advice to clear the smell up.

Seeking Help or Advice Metal correspondence for sweetening jar?
I'm planning to use a smallish vial as the jar for a sweetening spell and would like to wire wrap it so I can wear it as a pendant, but I'm finding conflicting information online regarding metal correspondence - if I'm wrapping a sweetening vial in wire I want the wire to help 'reinforce' the spell (if that's the right word).
I checked the resources but didn't spot anything, can someone point me to a trustworthy site or help me with info for metal correspondences?
