this pain is excruciating. King Jelly Bean crossed the veil and this is my dark night of the soul. Knowing I’ll see him again hasn’t eased the pain of loosing his physical presence. I’m going to be going dark for a while. Please forgive my lack of response to messages. Self care is very difficult for me right now and it’s taking all my effort.
With cherries and chocolate this treat is meant to promote self love and invite love into my life.
I ordered this knock off perfume to replace my discontinued fragrance and it was a total flop. silver lining though - it came in this awesome satin bag that is begging to house a tarot deck.
I added this to my grimoire tonight. I found it online but no credit to the author was given so I'm not sure where it comes from. I'm going to try it out soon though.
Hello! sorry if I'm bothering you by asking this, but how exactly do I know that I have bad luck? I'm asking this cause for a couple of months now things have been...I guess you could horrible? I don't know how to word it right but it just hasn't been pleasant at all. Just when things were looking bright for me it all just crashed down and it's been hard for me since, almost to the point where I just don't want to live anymore. Is this bad luck and if so, is there a way to throw it out?
There's been a few times in my life when things sucked so bad I thought living wasn't worth the trouble. I'm sooooo glad I talked to someone knowledgeable about how I was feeling because it helped. I don't think you've got a bad luck problem, I think you've got something more serious and you'd benefit by talking with a counselor. Maybe it's a temporary sucky life syndrome that'll pass, or maybe it's more considerable like depression. Either way, I want you to talk to a counselor. Do you hear me? Then I want you to touch base with me afterwards. Please. I love my followers and I want to know you're alright.
My tarot cards have a snazzy new bag. It matches the gold and black theme of the Russian tarot deck that I love so much. I got it from Etsy.

Yeah so I got a 50% off subscription to Audible. Anyone have any witchy or witchy adjacent book recommendations you want to suggest? If you could get 3 witchy books for free, what would you get?

hey, lately my family's been very unlucky, a lot of bad things have been happening. Do you have a spell for this? maybe a luck spell or something idk
Sorry to hear about your bad luck. The good news is luck can change! I would begin by saying repeatedly to yourself as well as out loud, that you and your family enjoy good luck. Remember we create what we speak. Also I'll post a spell to help.
“Make a list of new worst things you can try. It can be anything like talking more walks or a new spell!”
Okay typos aside, I think I’m supposed to list some new witchy things to try. This is real challenge because I’ve been doing witchcraft for so long I’m not sure there IS anything I consider new…I’m going to have to think on it and reblog my list.
after some serious thought it finally occurred to me that I’d never made egg shell powder. So I made some just to try something new. I posted my process yesterday.

What the winner will get:
The Rules:
Enjoy and good luck to all you lovely souls!! Any other questions can be sent here!!
Egg shell powder is useful in witchcraft because it protects and purifies.
It helps block non-corporal beings from a physical space so pressing it into chalk form, or sprinkling it can work as a barrier to keep unwanted nasties at bay.
Some say it even blocks out the benign energies at work as well, so it’s great for those times when you need to just sit and be a muggle for a little while.
It can also be used to enhance psychic ability in a way because it protects you from that which seeks to take advantage of you when your engaged in psychic activity.
Another use is purification and is especially useful in the bath.
How to make it:
To protect from Salmonella (a harmful bacteria that can make you sick) store your used egg shells in the egg carton and refrigerate until you are ready to boil your shells, making sure never to leave them sitting out for long.
Added bonus: Egg shells make great plant food so you can share with your plants. I use this in my homemade pet food as a calcium supplement.
It was really easy. In fact, it was so easy I’m a little embarrassed to say it was my first time making it.
“Journal about the elements and what they mean to you.”
Um, I could fill a book with what the elements mean to me, lol! For the sake of y’all reading this, I’ll be brief. I envoke the innate power of the elements when I cast major spells. I draw on the power they embody that encompasses mother earth. When I draw on this power I am using the energy of planet earth and I can use them individually or together, depending on what I’m intending. Elemental magic is a very strong magic and when I cast spells I usually include some form of elemental magic, whether it’s the fire that burns my written desire or breath of air I use to activate a sigil. Though these two examples are but small instances of what I’d consider minor elemental uses, they are still powerful. They are just as powerful as the torrential rain I have stood in to purify my body and soul of heartbreak and the tornadic winds I’ve asked to rip away my anxiety.
How can you tell that you and your familiar have found each other?
Imo it's a sense of deep spiritual bond that, in some way, enhances your craft. My Pink Jelly Bean is so very talented and intuitive. She happily assists with spells and divination. King Jelly Bean has been with me for lifetimes and is a real asset to my energy work, especially in the Astral. The bond between witch and familiar is sacred and can take time to nurture. The communication between the two is important as well. When in doubt, ask your animal friend if they'd like to be your familiar.
Question about hairless cats: are they appropriate for people who are allergic to cat dander? I’m terribly allergic to anything with fur so I was curious
I'm allergic to cats and I have no adverse reaction to my sphynx cats. I suspect it's due more to their weekly required baths than not having hair as I've been told the allergen most often lies in their saliva and not necessarily their fur. Still, it's not a promise that you won't have a reaction to one. It varies from cat to cat. I took the gamble and I'm glad I did. I hope you have equal luck and get a hairless baby :)
