Magickal Properties Of Moss: Luck, Money, Protection & Safety ♡

Reminder, solar eclipse water!!!

If you live in America mark on your calendars that August 21 will be the solar eclipse. It will peak at 2:44pm EST ( do a bit of research to see what you’ll be able to see and your locally occurring time).

I also highly suggest you collect solar eclipse water during this time. Solar eclipse water is good for supercharging spells to give it an extra kick if you need it as well as it works very well for spells involving transformation, change, or release.

🍀 Oxalis in Magic! 🍀

🌱 Oxalis is a very common plant, and a great natural resource for beginning witches because of that!

🌱 Oxalis is bound to Venus and Earth, love and home respectively. This makes the plant perfect for home protection and similar spells home oriented.

🌱 They are also commonly mistaken for clovers! Which makes them great for glamours, they are able to masquerade as something other than themself without trying. The glamour can be made for love especially, because of the ties to Venus mentioned earlier.

🌱 They can be used for luck, not only because of their looks relating to clovers, but because of their own lucky and abundant properties. Use in money and wealth spells for abundance and prosperity, as well as luck spells! 

🌱 These plants spread deep roots, which means they can help you with grounding. They are good to eat so consider eating some and grounding yourself before big magical endeavors!

🍀Overall we can see that Oxalis is a very versatile plant, used for love, luck, home, abundance, grounding, glamours. So go out and collect some!🍀

Happy Witching!✨

🌹How To Use Roses in Witchcraft🌹

⭐Add roses to Banishing Spells to overcome a bad habit

⭐Use rose petals in your bath for attraction rituals

⭐Make rose water

⭐Use the thorns from roses in Protection Spells or to deflect negative energies

⭐Can be used in any Beauty Spells

⭐Stuff rose petals into poppets/dolls for love, romance, and attraction.

⭐Rose colors mean different things. Use them for specific energies:

White- New Begins, Purity

Pink- Sweetness, Sincerity

Yellow- Friendship, Cheerfulness

Purple- Love at first Sight, Royalty

Black- Major Changes, Mystery

Red- Love, Passion

⭐Enchant a rose or a bouquet of roses before giving them to someone

⭐Use wilted roses for opposite effect (wilted purple rose being disinterest at first sight.) Not to be confused with dried roses. Roses left to naturally decay on a rose bush as much as possible.

⭐Sprinkle red rose buds on a candle to help bring in loving energy. Yellow rose buds to bring in friendships, etc.

⭐Use roses in tea to bring love, healing, and protection into your being.

so you're a bit confused about the different phases of the moon or how and what they do or you're just too lazy to actively hunt down the info and put it in your grimoire. No worries, your witch dad is here to help you :)

New Moon:

new moon, happens every month, start of a new lunar cycle.

cannot be seen, sun behind moon-lighting side faced away from the earth.

best for: new beginnings, setting intentions for the month, best place to make plans and decide what to do.

Waxing Moon:

seen as crescent in the sky, illuminated on right-hand side as sun slowly starts to move from behind the moon. first sign that energy is building and in a few days the moon will be at full power

best for: working on self-confidence/compassion/self-assurance. put plans into place to reach goals. build yourself up

First Quarter:

can see a clear half-moon in the sky. at half power. sun is side by side with moon

best for: reflection, taking a pause, revel in what you have been working on and celebrate achievements. think about how u want to celebrate full moon, get ready for serious action.

Waxing Gibbous:

slither of dark moon left unseen. one step away from full power

best for: one phase away from full, hone in on intentions/goals/actions.

make sure you are paying attention to details and staying mindful of what is externally and internally happening

Full Moon:

Big boy moon. Full power. can tap into her energy to help gain insight or to 💫manifest💫. most powerful time of the moon

best for: manifestations, adding more power to your intentions. good for rituals/spells. great time for releasing or banishing rituals, manifestations spells and meditation. good for charging and cleansing. Moon water

Waning Gibbous:

winding down of moons power. sun is moving away and taking its light with it.

best for: turn inwards and evaluate what has happened over last few days. think about full moon ritual/meditation and readjust your intentions goals for the rest of the month

Third Quater:

illuminated on the left side. back to half power and is fading.

best for: let go of what is holding you back, let go of any negativity in your life. Examples: self-limiting beliefs, people who aren’t great for you or your life, fear and basically anything that isn’t serving you or letting you progress in your life. Cleanse yourself and home.

Waning Moon:

power of moon is nearly over. small crescent left in night’s sky. nearly time for new moon and new beginnings.

best for: take a deep breath and surrender to whatever happened and what is beyond your power. don't beat yourself up if you didn't complete any of your goals. dust yourself off and pick yourself up and get ready for a new cycle. Remember to be kind and compassionate to yourself.

Difference between a jinx, hex and curse

I felt like people searching my tags would need a little clarification on the difference between a jinx, hex and curse (according to me).

A jinx is a form of malevolent magic where the subject gets bad luck, minor misfortunes. It’s simple, nasty, but isn’t meant to seriously harm someone. Usually only lasts a little while. A hex is a form of malevolent magic, more powerful than a jinx. Lasts longer, and is usually “broken” when the subject learns their lesson. A curse is the most powerful, and if done well it can last a lifetime or even longer. Can be cast on a person or family, and can last forever or until something is done to atone for whatever caused then to be cursed.

🌱 Green Witch Tip 🌱

Grow one plant for each area of your life (mental health, physical health, friendships, etc). Every time you care for that plant, check in with yourself and see if there’s any way you could be helping that part of your life flourish.

Prune/harvest to cut out old issues Water/fertilize to encourage growth Repot/add soil for change and new beginnings

Mud Magick

inspired by @curseworm and her love of dirt

(all associations are my own, this is just a personal guide)

Garden mud- hard work, growth, health, grounding

Pathway mud- obstacles, cursing, travel

Graveyard mud- spiritual communication, banishing, memory

Woodland mud- secrets, animal communication, invocation, peace

River mud- change, cleansing, blessings

Things to try

When you clean the mud off your boots, let all the negativity you’ve picked up along the way go with it

Get a jar of pathway mud and put someone’s name in it. This will make it harder for them to achieve their goals (ahem, ahem, Trump)

As usual- don’t take anything from private private property (unless you have permission) and don’t trespass. that’s just illegal and id like you to be safe

and it might be wise to leave a gift when you take something from nature, but that’s a personal choice

Green witch tip

When planting mint in your garden, plant it in its own pot rather than in the ground itself or it will quickly spread and take over the flower bed

When putting together any kind of job spell, I always include items/herbs for four intents:

Wealth - actual physical currency I can use to pay bills and buy food.

Prosperity - long term ‘doing well for myself’ beyond just ‘having money for food and bills’, but really having at least the potential to Go Places

Luck - because heck knows I need luck in job interviews and to get people to look at my resume and application

Happiness - oh god, I didn’t include this in the first job spells I did, and LEMME TELL YOU, I wound up with a job that paid decently and had lots of potential for promotion, and I ABSOLUTELY COULD NOT STAND my boss or my coworkers, the work itself was awful, and I cannot describe the absolute dread that filled me before going in to every shift.

[Protip: Aventurine has all four of these properties]
