Workplace Witchcraft - Memory And Awareness

☾ Rose Salt ☽

One of my personal favorite things to make, Rose Salt has a variety of uses. Whether you use it as a scrub in the shower to cleanse yourself and your energies, as a relaxing soak in a warm bath to relax in, or sprinkle it in doorways and on windowsills as a form of protection, it’s multipurpose and very easy to make! What You’ll Need: - Dried Roses - Salt - A Vessel With a Lid to Keep It In - A Mortar & Pestle Optional: - Rose Essential Oil Steps:

Take the petals and buds of your Roses, save the stems and thorns for other spells, and grind them finely with your Mortar & Pestle.

Add Salt.

Mix both well until they are combined well.

Add the mixture into the vessel you chose.

Add the essential oil, seal the vessel, and gently shake to combine everything together more easily.

One of the many properties of Roses is Protection as is with Salt so combining the two gives you a simple, fragrant protective material to keep around your home.

Simple Coffee Spell

Hey all!  I’m still very much a newbie, but this has quickly become my fave to do and has helped me SO MUCH in this past month.  Careful not to overdo it- when I was perfecting it I did it three days in a row and had unusual amounts of energy for days!

What you’ll need:

- coffee cone and filter

- your favorite coffee

-hot water (just finished boiling)

- your favorite coffee mug

Prep your cone, filter, and coffee while the water comes to a boil.  I like to use ¼ cup grounds for two cups of coffee, but feel free to use it to taste.  This would also be the time to add any spices or herbs you want to the coffee grounds if you’re really needing some extra kick.  You should also be solidifying your goals for the day during this time.  One goal for mental energy, one goal for physical energy, and one for mental energy.  (This can be the same goal.)  The more specific the goal, the better the spell works.  Once the water has stopped boiling, pour it semi-slowly into your coffee grounds.  Think or say aloud “Give me the mental energy to complete (task.)  Give me the physical energy to complete (task.)  Give me the strength to complete (task.)”  Repeat this until you have filled the cone with water.  While the coffee drips into your mug, place your hands at the base of the cone (careful, it may be hot!) and repeat the above mantra a minimum of three times, until all the water has drained out of the cone and into your mug.  As you are doing this, notice the way the steam curls and smells and the way the grounds shrink as the coffee water drips into the mug.  For greatest effect, drink the coffee while you begin working on one of your goals.  Otherwise, consume as you usually would.

Happy productivity!

“Cut It Out, Cut Them Off”

I could’ve swore I had seen a spell similar to this on Tumblr somewhere, but seeing as I can’t find it… I guess it’s safe for me to post my own version.

Purpose: 

This spell is to help you sever any ties with a person that you no longer want in your life. It can also be used to assist in removing any negative habits or intrusive thoughts.

It requires simple supplies, things you could find at the dollar store, so it isn’t hard to perform in that sense… but it does ask you to draw and reflect on negative things in your life. If there are some things you simply cannot face or think about in regards to anything you wish to be free of, this spell may not be the best for you.

Ingredients:

a length of ribbon, preferably white, long enough to wrap around an ankle or wrist

a thin tipped marker, pen, or Sharpie, preferably in black

a pair of scissors

a fire-proof container and matches (optional)

Method:

Gather your supplies. Prep for spellwork in the way you normally do (cleanse your space, cast a circle, invoke any deities / spirits, light candles or incense, play mood-setting music, etc.).

On your ribbon, write the name of the person that you want to cut away, or the habit / thought you wish to remove. When you are done, hold the ribbon in your hands, and think of what you wrote, how it makes you feel, all the negativity it brings into your life. It may be painful, but pull up as much as you can - bring every last bit to the surface if possible. Take as much time as you need to do so. 

After you have brought forward everything you can / can think of, push it all into the ribbon and the words you wrote upon it - every last thought and feeling you have about what you are trying to rid yourself of. The aim is to get all of the negativity outside of you and into the ribbon.

When you feel you have done that, or as much as you can, tie the ribbon around your wrist or ankle. As quickly as you can, snip it off your body and let it fall. It is gone.

Take the ribbon with your writing and get rid of it. (If you can, burn it, though this is optional.) Cut it up into smaller pieces, throw it out, bury it someplace you rarely go, let it go in the wind or water, as long as you completely rid yourself of it.

After the ribbon is gone, take some time to meditate on how you feel now that you are free of that person / habit / thought. Feel how light your shoulders are now, how bright your spirit. Reflect on how great your life will be now that what troubled you is gone for good.

Do your best not to think of the spell, or what you got rid of, again.

Optional: go have a shower to be sure to cleanse yourself of any of the negativity from the ribbon on your skin. Also, have a snack, drink some water, relax - you just purged yourself of some pretty heavy stuff, you deserve a break.

Notes:

Only write one thing on the ribbon - one person, one habit, one thought. If you have more than one thing you wish to be rid of, do this spell multiple times. Just be careful not to drain yourself from expending too much energy.

This spell may best be paired with a self-love spell; you should bring in some positive to fill up the space and make you feel better after dealing with all the negative thoughts and feelings.

#BackToSchoolWitchcraft - Day 9

Make a small magical sachet to keep in your backpack

This is basically a protection sachet against negativity, that might infect your school. All of the following ingredients are substitutable. 

What you’ll need:

Rosemary - protection against negativity

Pine needles - protection against negativity

Cloves - banishing negative energies

Basil - protection against negativity

Bay leaves - dispelling negative energies

Red pepper - to burn away negativity

Clear quartz - protection

Aloe - protection against negativity

Protection sigil 

Some of your hair

How to do:

1) Optional. Make a protection sigil. Mine states “Protection from negativity”. 

2) Place all your ingredients into the sachet, while asking them to protect from/burn/banish negativity, depending on what ingredient you use. 

3) Close your sachet firmly, and visualise your intent being sealed within it. 

Note: If you want to, you can charge your sachet under the full moon that’s coming up later this week! It’s a great source of extra energy, and could give your sachet a powerful boost. 

This one actually required a lil bit of guts to post because while this works for me, I’m just starting to branch out of the research phase of witchcraft and starting to do my own practice, but I’m still petrified of doing things “wrong.” That disclaimer aside, I’m gonna explain what I’ve been working on and experimenting with.

So I’ve been making spell jars with candles on top lately. The idea here is that the spell jar is harnessing the energy of its contents when the candle is burning. That’s my intention for it anyway, and it seems to be working quite well.

This particular one I made today for the purpose of cleansing residual energy after I’ve helped a spirit cross over. I’ve had some issues with spirits in my apartment lately so that’s the reason for this.

It contains: 💧Stream Water (for cleansing) 💧Swamp Water (for banishing) 🌱Juniper leaves + berries (for cleansing and protection against malignant forces) 🍃 Violet Leaves (protection against evil)

(Also I’m totally aware that the ingredients list in my grimoire includes sage. I just forgot to add the sage before I sealed it lol).

I tried it out and it works pretty well. After I helped this one spirit cross over, I left it burning where she was standing for a few minutes and the residual energy was lessened but not gone. I’d imagine I’d need to let it burn for longer.

Anyway this was a little insight into my current practice. Maybe it could serve as an idea for someone else, or maybe I’m about to get roasted. I don’t really know.

Either way, thanks for reading ☺️
