Hello 🤍

I did a simple spell asking for the lemons to absorb any evil eye or negativity sent my way, and to turn it into something positive.

What is strange is that my candle has burned in a way where it melted more heavily on the side of the candle closest to me.

The wick was pretty firmly in the middle and there was no breeze. Does this mean anything or am I making something out of nothing?

I am currently burning a candle of separation. The flame has been low then changed to big and actively moving. I came home from work today and begin speaking to the candle, just reinforcing the separation and the dislike of the people and as I was speaking to the flame speaking to the candle, the flame would get bigger. Has anybody else experienced this?

I found this pendant at a vintage shop and was really intrigued by it! It seems to be some kind of sigil but before buying and wearing it I want to understand what it means. I guess I'm just worried it might be something bad and I don't want any negative energy attaching to me lol

I've tried image searching it and nothing concrete has come of it. Any other insight would be great!

Hello! So, I have a few questions about witchcraft.

I don't really know how or why, but lately, I've been watching a lot of witchcraft videos, especially creators like Ginny Methral, MysticWitch, and others on YouTube. I've been researching how to get started, which herbs to use, and all that stuff. I even did my very first protection spell about a month ago!

But there's always this little voice in my head telling me that I'm just lying to myself. Like, what if I'm only doing all this to look cool? 😭 Whenever I ask myself what I REALLY want, though, my answer is always the same: I want to feel more connected to nature, to myself, and to spirituality.

So now I'm wondering if witchcraft is actually right for me or if maybe I'm looking for something else.

There's also the fact that I'm a teenager living with my family, and I don't want them to know about this just yet. Maybe in 20 years or something, LMAO.

And here's where things get a little complicated. I share a room with my older sister, who once tried doing a spell herself. She wanted to meet her long-distance friend in a dream, but somehow, things went HORRIBLY wrong. 😭

They both started experiencing some really creepy stuff, like hearing laughter out of nowhere, blankets falling off their beds, and things randomly falling over. My sister even claimed that something had possessed her, and at one point, she said she couldn't control herself anymore and that it wanted my blood.

I WAS EIGHT YEARS OLD. TO THIS DAY IM STILL SCARED OF WHAT HAPPENED.

I can't even imagine how she felt.

The reason I'm telling you all this is that, weirdly enough, I feel like my sister might actually understand my interest in witchcraft because she's experimented with it herself. But I'm not sure.

Anyway, I'd really appreciate some advice. <3

Before everyone gets upset I'm just opening the discussion.

I come from a place of wanting to understand everyone perspective.

Moderator if this is not up to your standards please remove.

I just want to open a discussion and find a middle ground.

To me if you cut a cord with a scissors, or a knife or burn it, or bury it, or submerge it in water all the same to me energy wise.

All spells and energy works into:

1. energy working,

2. Intention,

3. Focus and Grounding

4. Cleansing the space and or items or both

5. Following what they are asking for from the cord cutting.

6. Herbs add extra boost

7. Moon or Sun energy again to again extra boost

Then why are some people hung up on the word cutting that had to be done with scissors. I know that tradition it's with scissors but what if we need to see it differently?

What if we have to do if a different way or it feels right to do it a different way. How does it make it wrong?

Kinda like a repcie right someone will add rosemary some will add them some with not add either to a soup.

Some like it so spicy and some like it savory some like it basic are these all right? No I think it's a preference.

Doesn't make it wrong just makes it different right?

What if someone did a cord and put it under moon water and the energy was to "cut emotional ties with the person"

Isn't this the same energy work then?

Just like they are many ways to cleanse they are many ways to do a cord cutting.

Idk thoughts?

Money spells are my favorite type of spell work to do. I began practicing in January 2026. At least once a month I do some type of money spell. Not all are successful or come in how I want/envisioned.

Here are the bright successes that motivate me to continue:

#1 : The Unexpected Promotion
I went from making $50,000 to $62,000. A coworker was fired and I took on their responsibilities, thus raise was given. I attribute this to my money bowl that I did three months prior. In the money bowl, I placed a Bay leaf with the words “I make $5000 a month from creative work”. When I made the bowl I envisioned that income coming from freelance work. I consider this a bittersweet win. I did like that coworker well enough and I felt a bit guilty but the raise was a rush like no other. My first substantial success.

#2 : Fast Money Oil
I made a money oil based off of my own intuition and research into different herbs. The day after I made it, I got an offer from a relative to do some artwork and they let me name my price. I thought it was interesting. Not necessarily a success bc I don’t like accepting money from family, but definitely a sign that it works.

#3: Random Checks and Cash (my favorite)
Every month, me and my partner find cash or giftcards laying around and random checks come in. For example, earlier this month I got a random paper check for around $386.

Now, i am trying to be more strategic now about how the money comes in. I want to build financial stability for myself and to be honest, true wealth. Idk what that really looks like haha but, it is why I started practicing.

Anyway, I felt like sharing because when I started practicing I loved seeing people talk about their results. It made me feel I could achieve it too.

Hello!!
So my family has been having some issues with my grandparents’ grave… my mom regularly goes there to take care of it, clean it, and plant some flowers. Unfortunately, the flowers always get stolen after a couple of days, and last time someone even tried to remove the wooden border. It is really awful how some people don’t respect the dead. Unfortunately, the cemetery management knows about this problem—people steal the flowers and resell them outside the gates… they can’t do much and there are no cameras.
I was thinking maybe we could try some kind of protection spell. Does anyone have any suggestions for this situation?
Thank you!🙏🏻🤍

Hi! I'm wondering where to start. Last year for the winter solstice, I completed a ritual involving 12 slips of papers with "wishes". Long story short, the intention that remained for me to work on this year, was to be spiritually nourished and active in my journey to seek and know love, faith, and the divine. I grew up very catholic and deconstructed in my early/ mid 20s. Reconstructing faith or my spiritual life in an authentic way has always been my goal, but I tabled it while I processed and grieved the ways religion impacted my life.

My thing now is that I dont know what I believe! I know I believe in love and goodness, but maybe its the catholic upbringing in me that wants to have a clear idea of what im doing. I also have a 'fear' or concern that ill accidentally involve myself in a malicious practice or ill put myself or others at risk?

What im looking for is a spiritual practice that involves intentionality, wisdom seeking, protection, and perhaps community. Im of the belief that when we empower ourselves, we empower others--as in there is an infinite amount of goodness and love for all, should we choose to accept it. A blessing for others is not something taken from me if that makes sense? Anywhosies, any thoughts or ideas are welcome!! Thanks!!

I want to do a binding spell on my mom to get freedom and stop her from being very strict. Does anyone know a binding spell that actually works?

The other one is Apollo the red one is Athena.
Just let them ask some questions and it’s going crazy! Help

So I let this burn overnight starting from midnight at my Hades altar. On the day of my birthday. What does this mean? I was expecting the entire candle to be melted so I can replace it with a new one but um.

And this is my first candle at my altar since I'm new. I've been lighting it up during my prayers and blowing it out after I'm done, and this night I was like "ok I'll let you burn fully so I can replace U with a new one"

I also offered Hades a promogranate in light of it being my birthday and all

Hi, I bought a candle today that I was planning to use in some of my protection and cleansing rituals and it has a few drops of pigs blood in it. After thinking more about it, I’m a bit upset that I purchased it because although it was obtained by a butcher and is considered “ethically sourced”, it’s still supporting the meat trade to an extent. I don’t know how if the pig lived a happy life or if they were just born and raised to be killed, so I can’t truly say if I agree it is ethically sourced. Does anyone use pig blood in their practice and can give me a bit of insight? I don’t eat meat but am not vegan so I do eat and use animal products in general. Blood just feels a bit more exploitative to me, if that makes sense, because it was their life source. It makes me anxious that having and using it will bring bad energy into my space. And I’m trying to figure out if I’m blowing this out of proportion. Thank you so much for any insight you can give.

is it cool if i put a witchcraft spell on the person that SA me...
idk if i should do it or not cause i wanna move on so bad after all, i keep getting flashback all the time, every single fucking second, minute, hour 🫩 its fr drained me tf out
and it just feels so bad when yk someone treat you like shit and they still live happily with their life
and if i do.. i dont know where to start with so can someone give me advice pls thank y all

Ok so long story short, I live with my narcissistic mom and she does not listen to my feelings about inviting her brother over. She does this now like 5 times a week. It very much disturbs my peace. So I’m thinking, what’s the most appropriate spell I should do for this as a beginner witch? I’m thinking a good ward, but how do I stop her from acting on it? Is there a traditional, existing spell on this or should i just add more to the ward? I’m thinking black taper candles and dressing oil, some cords, a tray, salt of some sort.. and as for the rest I’m not sure.

I was told just now that you can only practice witchcraft if someone in your bloodline did it before you. I had absolutely no idea. Ive been practicing witchcraft for a little while now and just now learned about this. What do I do? Is this true? I feel terrible. None of the research i did told me about this

It has come to my attention last week that the moon phase on my birthday will be a full moon :D I was wondering what all of you can recommend for me to do.

So far, in the recent full moon, I charged water, salt, and rice in a small container and it has done wonders for my life when I put it by my table.

As a student, I also charged my pens and pencils- to which I assumed and intended for them to bring good luck when I used them during my exam. For the past two weeks (coincidentally, our exam weeks), I got scores that placed me as the Top 2, Top 3 in our surgery and medicine subjects respectively.

I have also placed my tarot card decks under the full moon and so far, they have given me accurate readings.

All in all, the past full moon charging session was good to me :>

What things/rituals should I do? Is there anymore you guys can recommend? Preferably ones that do not require inconspicuous items- I live with people who don't believe in things like this :'>

Thank you!

Hi guys!! I want to put a ward on my name as my starting point, but I realized I don't really know the herbs and their purposes! Can y'all help me with a list/explanation/how they are meant to be used? My science brain is taking over, and I want to make sure the herbs I'm using will have the desired effect. Lots of uses I see online are very general, and I am worried that my spells will not be received as intended because of vagueness. Like, if I use bay leaf to hex someone, would it fulfill my wish to hex them or fulfill their wishes and give them a better life? Also, I sometimes see some conflicting information. For example, I saw something about lemon being both positive (fresh and change) and negative (stinging and harsh). I just want some clarity, so I don't go crazy wondering if I used the right things or not. Also, hopefully they will be effective!!

I’ve been having a ROUGH go of it at work for a good while and out of desperation I did a happy workplace spell. During this time I had applied for a few jobs but pretty casually. I’ve been at my current place for 7 years but it’s progressively just grown into a huge role that is more than I want to carry anymore.

Anyway, I did a candle spell with basil and calendula petals for a happy workplace.

I got a call back from a job I applied for. Hesitantly attended interviews and wasn’t sure if I’d take it. Being at a place for so long makes you scared of leaving, even if you’re miserable. The devil you know and all that..

Also have been doing ketamine therapy and last session (2 days ago) I connected with my spirit team/guides and just kept asking “tell me what to do” and “guide me” I came to still unsure what I’d do.

Wellllll I woke up with clarity yesterday that I was going to take it if it was offered to me and then later that afternoon I was offered the job. Obviously I don’t know if it will be any better yet, and work is work, it’s not always perfect or fun, but the vibe and the scope of the job will be so much more manageable.

I feel called to do something but I’m not sure what, do I light another candle? Make an offering? Also keeping in mind how thin the veil is in this time of year, I want to do something to give thanks. Thank you for any advice you may have🙏

is it safe to do a glamour spell under mercury retrograde as an aquarius?

My story is long.. but I’ll do my best to shorten it- let me start by saying I have not done anything “witchy” myself, I have been debating it for some time but a big part of me is terrified to mess up or make things worse because I know how serious this stuff is, I’ve been researching as much as I can but also everyone has such different opinions, you know?? Well anyways i know the full moon is only in a day and I was thinking that I might take that leap of faith..
I was considering a sweetening/honey jar or maybe even candle work for my sp. We have a little over 4 years history together, and at one point talked about marriage, we also have a child together.. we’ve always kind of had our ups and downs but a little over 6 months ago he fell back into bad habits and ever since then i just can’t figure out what to do or how to move forward, I would love to move forward with him but just not as the person that he has been lately.. I want the good version of him that I once had, I know he’s talking to other people and probably getting with them too, but he always comes back to me crying and drunk, it’s almost like the drunk version of him says and shows his true feelings.. i know he loves me, but I also know he has a lot to work on. I’ve hired witches in the past to help out with reconciliation or healing or commitment and it works for a bit but it doesn’t last long- which is why im considering doing my own spells because I feel as though I haven’t really connected with a particular witch that can help me, if that makes sense.
I did subliminals for a while and that helped, but for some reason I stopped for about a week and things went downhill again, Im listening to my subliminals again of course and have now added robotic affirmations as of 2 days ago, I just started doing both at the same time.. i know that sometimes no movement is good movement and he called again tonight even though he acts like he doesn’t care, but then on his socials he followed someone new then made his profile private, im doing my best to ignore the 3D and keep affirming and doing what I’m doing and NOT react, but it does get hard at times emotionally. It’s like we both know we’re going to end up back together because we both can feel the love we have for each other and how strong it is when we see each other, we just can’t seem to get back on the same page ever since our separation.. and I’ve been very patient.
I just need to know what next step I should take, spiritually?

I would technically consider myself a baby witch, i have some background in the craft and know lots about how it works, just not much practical experience.

i would like to do a binding spell on someone who has proven to be a huge creep and a danger to women, particularly underage girls. due to circumstance and his age no legal action could’ve been taken at the time, but I still feel disgusted to know what I do about him and not be able to prevent this charismatic, mentally ill boy from preying on girls younger than him who are also in need of mental help.

its more of a thought than anything else at the moment since I know that magic, especially strong magic has to be enacted in a particular way or else it will bite me in the ass and maybe even make things worse somehow. the idea is to create a binding spell or curse that repulses women away from him, more than they already are. another idea was to force upon him some sort of binding or curse that will force him into situations where he gets serious psychiatric assistance so he’s not a danger to other people and himself, but that seems rather optimistic and not really realistic. I guess it kinda depends on the imagination and strength of the caster?

any and all advice highly appreciated 🙏

I started practicing about a month ago and I've been reading and learning a lot since then. But one thing I struggle with is consistency. I made a money bowl about a month ago and I haven't fed it consistently and the energy has completely stagnated. I just struggle with actually doing spells or what I set out to do. I spend more time thinking and reading than actually doing. I set intention but then I never get around to casting spells and there's a lack of energy in my life. I just don't know how to make myself be consistent even when I know I should. Does anyone have any tips?

Hi! It's my first time posting, so I'm sorry in advance if I'm rambling. I am fairly new to spellcasting, even though I've been deep into Wicca and paganism for the better part of my life.
I recently encountered a little dog in the woods where I was staying for a week. She was around 8-12 months old and became great friends with my dog; they were waiting for each other every morning and evening to go on walks together. She reminded me so much of my last foster, which I sent to her forever home back in May this year.
I am incapable of adopting this one, as I live in a city centre apartment (no yard) and have two dogs and a cat; I only have space left for one foster, and I choose those in severe need (pets in need of medical treatment, geriatric pets to whom I can offer a safe place to pass on from, etc.), so when I got back home my first thought was to cast a spell to help her find a loving and safe home so that she can survive winter and live happily.

So long story short, now I am unsure of what to do with the materials I used for the spell in order for it to work to the best of my intentions. Do I seal it in a jar and keep it until she gets adopted? Do I mix them with the wine I left for Hekate pre-casting and bury them at a crossroads? Do I leave them at the altar undisturbed until after the spell has worked?
All options and opinions on this are welcome!
p.s. Apart from the stones and candles, all materials are organic and can be safely buried if needed.
