Firstly, I got my first cast iron cauldron! So excited! Also made a protective mist to spray on myself if I feel I need a little boost of protection. It’s salt, black pepper, chili flakes and lavender, suspended in water charged under the last super moon, strained and bottled.

So, an altar update. I finally got around to replenishing my work candles. This should hold me for a while, I think. And for less than $30, too!

Witch Tip

Stir drinks clockwise to promote things (productivity, creativity, sleepiness, etc). Stir drinks counter clockwise to decrease things (anxiety, insomnia, invading thoughts, etc)

Revenge curse

1. Fill a jar with apple cider vinegar and sprinkle in some dried wormwood, black peppercorns chili flakes and salt.
2. Take a grape and pierce it with pins like a pincushion.
3. Throw the grape and any extra pins into the vinegar mixture. (A rusty nail can also be added).
4. Finally put a piece of paper with the target’s name or their photo in the jar, seal it and shake it well.

The jar should be buried outside and allowed to rot. The target will have an awful run of bad luck that gets worse as the fruit rots. To remove the curse, the jar must be smashed. (Safely, especially because there will be a lot of contaminated sharp glass and pins.)

I take no responsibility for anything that may happen as a result of this curse, because it would have been your choice to cast it.

If you’re doing magic on the fly and need a quick candle, use a birthday candle. They burn quickly, cleanly and there are a million colors, patterns and even ones whose flame matches the candle color to choose from!

FIGHT THE DOUBT DEMON

spell-a-day:

FIGHT THE DOUBT DEMON

In the gloom of winter we all feel discouraged by the snow and cold.

Light a black candle or a white, and surround with salt.

Feel a protective light surrounding you say:

Demons of doubt

Who nip at my hells,

Who haunt my dreams,

Although you’re not real

Get thee behind me.

Get thee away

From my circle of light.

You are banished this day.

Simple, effective.
