Made this because of yet another Tumblr fiasco! Im a queer witch trying to find a new home that offers the same quirkyness as tumblr. But without the problems :)
who you are in high school is not who you will be in college and who you are in college is not who you will be when you are 30.
when you accept that you are malleable and ever-changing, you will be less resistant to new ways of thinking and being and you will grow into the beautiful person you are meant to become.
resist the urge to remain stagnant. there are always things to learn about the world and yourself. let yourself learn them.
Aries:The high priestess of a coven pre dating written magic. Draped in gold she enchants the tools used to forge the future. From her mountain top she plans the rise and fall of man. Taurus:A young witch who has just stumbled upon her ability. Living alone in the woods she practices making the flowers grow and turning toads to swans. Gemini:A witch from ancient Greece, who rose to political power as more than man or woman with their knack for magic that plays tricks on the eye and hexes for those who opposed them Cancer:A mom living the average middle class life. Her kids no nothing of her wild days past now tucked away in spell books and photo albums. She has an affinity for love spells and charms. Leo:Riding through the desert, a witch long flowing hair tries with shaking legs to stand on her broom going full speed. She feels alive and free as she changes the color of the dust in her wake. Virgo:A librarian from the inner city, this witch has forgotten more about magic than you or I will ever know. She is never tired, time is in her control. Libra:The business men who visit the geisha house leave with empty pockets and no memories. Inside lives a young geisha who has perfected bending the will of those who find her attractive. Luckily everyone does. Scorpio:A swamp witch, draped in fur and black charcoal symbols marking her skin. Her familiar, a crocodile, brings bodies from the swamp so she can give their souls the passing they long for. Sagittarius: Every kid at Lakeside Elementary loves Ms W’s magic shows on Fridays. Especially when she turns into a cat, but that’s only when the other adults aren’t looking. Capricorn: An outlaw in the wild west, this witch lives in a homestead protected by her crows. She tends to her garden and land minding her own. Twenty Graves stand on the property line of the men who tried to get too close Aquarius:Living in a downtown loft apartment, her laptop types away by itself. Working for the news was never this witch’s goal, but it pays the rent until she can gather the materials to summon her army of undead. Pisces:A seaside witch in 1978 the day before her lover died. She calmed the sea and holding her in her arms, she walked on the water into the sunset. And when she could no longer walk, they sank to the bottom, together, to be reborn, together.
If you’re in an abusive relationship and asking me for a tarot reading to see if you should leave them, don’t. Leave them.
If you don’t study for a test, magic will not make you ace that test. It can’t cure your mental illness.
Magic can aide these things but they do it alone.
You might be able to do a protection spell to aid you in leaving your abusive relationship, but don’t hesitate to call domestic abuse support, and the police.
Study for your test and also cast a spell to aid in remembering what you studied.
Go to therapy and also make sigils to aid in recovery.
And if you’re asking if you should leave your boyfriend, then you already know the answer. Leave ‘em.
🚗 Enchant your windows and mirrors so that you can pay more attention to the road and the other drivers around you!
🚗 Hang a protection amulet on your rear-view mirror (if legal) to keep you safe on the road.
🚗 Keep tiger’s eye in your car to protect you against accidents!
🚗 When you go to the car wash, visualize your car being cleansed at the same time!
🚗 Enchant your steering wheel for easy turns!
🚗 If you have to have a parking permit on your rear-view mirror or on your car, enchant it so that it will bring you luck in finding a good parking space that’s available!
🚗 Keep an ash leaf in your car for protection.
🚗 If you’re a secret witch, keep your magical items locked in the trunk of your car.
🚗 Enchant your car radio so you can always find good music to listen to while you drive!
🚗 Keep a talisman in your car to ward off bad drivers!

Questions
for all spirits
How
are you?
By
what name may I call you, if you wish to give me one?

Questions
for guides
What
form are you most comfortable in?
Tom
and Alexandria say: “This is mostly for human curiosity and does
not really matter.” Thicket disagrees; the form a creature can take
can communicate very valuable information to the practitioner.
What
do you think about the direction I am going in?
What
paths are available to me right now?
Tom
says: “Do not agonize over the future.” I think this is personal
advice and not really a question.
What
am I doing right now that could be dangeous?

can I improve my life right now?
How
can I aid you in your goals of guiding and directing me to a more
secure life?

of this question, especially Tom. They communicate that this has no
real bearing on a spirit’s ability to do it’s job – Thicket again
disagrees)

situations should I contact you about? (Serious, casual, everyday,
rare)

Other
Notes
Some
spirits appreciate being chattered to all day long, just like a close
friend. Other spirits prefer to be contacted only when a serious
matter arises, or even not at all. When greeting a new spirit, ask
them how much they would like to communicate in general.
Do
not directly ask for names. Names are serious business in the spirit
world! Instead ask, “by what name may I call you,” indicating you
are not searching for a true name. Tom feels that even these given
names should be kept somewhat secret, and another nickname used to
communicate about this spirit to humans. Alexandria somewhat agrees.
Do not be offended or worried if a spirit refuses to give you any
sort of name at all.
Do
not confuse offerings with worship. Offerings are more like gifts –
literally, you are just “offering” something to a spirit. A cup
of coffee, a shot of liquor, some food, or even a nice glass of water
makes a good gift. Just as you would offer snacks and beverages to
any guest in your home, politely offer spirits something just to be a
gracious host.
Avoid
asking questions that give spirits leverage over you. “How do you
feel about me?” is a question asked primarily by insecure people.
Tom thinks this is harsh. Alexandria thinks this is correct. Some of
these questions you may feel are somewhat unavoidable in
companionship relationships. Let me encourage you to just be careful.
Tom wishes to leave a final note: “Always be careful. Spirits are not always what they seem.”
Meditating during long car journeys helps clear your mind, pass the time and totally counts as practicing.
If you like plants, collect plants. If you like crystals, collect crystals. Collect things that makes your soul sing!
Charity shops are brilliant. You can always find something you need in there.
Salt, salt, salt. I love it and you should at least consider having it in your witchy cabinet as it is brilliant for protection.
You don’t need all the tools the books say you need unless you feel they’ll help.
Stock up on as many black candles as you can during the Halloween season or wait until they’re on the discount aisle.
Love is a powerful tool, don’t abuse it. The love you have for someone or something can help make any spell stronger.
Wicca is the religion, Witchcraft is the practice. You don’t have to be Wiccan to practice Witchcraft, You don’t have to practice Witchcraft if you’re Wiccan.
If you’re having difficulty with magic and witchcraft, Labradorite can help significantly.
Be careful around incense and smoke if your an asthmatic witch! Goodness knows how many time my lungs have almost quit on me during cleansing. You don’t have to use it.
Stir a bit of cinnamon into your morning tea to help bring good fortune throughout the day.
Respect all living things, including plants and insects.
If you’re having trouble visualising your magic and will, try taking inspiration from fantasy media, such as Skyrim or Harry Potter, and visualise the magic from those.
If you relate a song to a spell or ritual, put it on and sing along to it!
A small rose quartz under your pillow will help ease nightmares.
Sometimes a digital grimoire is better and easier to write than a physical one.
If your life is getting difficult to manage, take a break from witchcraft if it helps.
Craft stores are a great place for mini bottles and jars.
You don’t need to be part of a coven to be a valid witch.
Anyone of any gender can be a witch.
Don’t rely solely on a healing spell or potion to help with an illness, visit your doctor too.
Share your knowledge to people who are willing to learn.
but thank you so much for the tips! I’m definitely checking out that starter kit 😀
