Anonymous asked: What are your top witch tips? |
- Trust your gut.
- Do copious amounts of reading a research.
- Stay out of closed religions and away from their deities. Respect the cultures of others and don’t take things that aren’t yours to take.
- The witchcraft and pagan community is not immune to homophobia, racism, transphobia, ableism, classism, and so on. Take responsibility for your actions, when you are called out on something–listen and self-educate instead of argue. It’s not about being “politically correct”–its about being respectful toward your fellow human being.
- There is magic in the mundane. Cleaning the floor is magic, cooking breakfast is magic, showers are magic, drinking a cup of tea is magic.
- All “special” herbs in spells can be replaced with literally anything you have on hand. Or in your own backyard. Take the time to learn about your local flora.
- All “special” tools can be replaced by your average kitchen essentials (as long as you’re not eating out of things that have come in contact with inedible stuff, or if you’re REALLY confident in your washing skills) Potion bottles = tupperware, mortar and pestle = coffee bean grinder, cauldron = pots/pans. Be creative!
- You can make your own Tarot deck out of a deck of cards. As pretty as the $25-$40 decks are–this is a great low-budget option.
- Cleansing tools quick tip: stick them in the freezer overnight or as long as it takes until it feels like they are clean.
- Food jars make great spell jars. Recycling them is great, but reusing them is better.
