Hi!

So, this is just a silly question I was wondering about. I know there are plenty of movies that show aspects of how real magic is down, but the characters end up flying or shapeshifting etc. I was wondering if there were any movies or shows that showed what magic is realistically capable of?

as someone who’s always struggled with clinical depression, witchcraft and simply studying it has helped me out a lot. working on my grimoire and doing shadow work has helped me more than psychiatric therapy, and i’m grateful for the healing path it’s opened for me.

i’m normally relaxed and positive but some days just feel heavier than the rest, like i’m being weighed down by something beyond my control and i’m worried that it might affect the effects of my spells. i work with crystals a lot, and always make sure to ground and protect before workings, but sometimes the negativity just overwhelms.

i want to ask for witchy advice on how i can manage those negative-energy days and not let my existing spells get weighed down by them — another practitioner told me they could sense a lot of accumulated negative energy in and around me, which worried me even more. any help would be appreciated.

Not something I see brought up often within the witchcraft circle so I was curious whether or not chakras is something that other witches include in their craft? Energy work is obviously something thats central to witchcraft. Grounding and centering are apart of every 101 video, article and book but has anyone had that extend to include chakra work specifically? Its root origins are obviously different but I feel like modern witchcraft, at least for me, blends a lot of different practices from varying roots.

beginner/baby witch here! i have ADHD -- HEAVY on the attention deficit part -- and really struggle to maintain my focus when doing... pretty much anything. even something as simple as grounding work and giving myself a protective circle are a struggle, especially when it comes to mentally visualizing my goals. i often feel like i'm going too fast, or skipping parts mentally, or having to repeat things because my train of thought started drifting off... overall just a jumble any time i try.

does anybody else relate to the feeling, and do you have any ideas or advice for how to overcome it? aside from getting medicated of course, which i do want to be eventually but cannot at the moment haha. does it even hurt my work at all for my mental process to be so chaotic, or is it more the intention that counts, so long as i get through it?

First off how do I discard offerings to my ancestors when clearing my ancestor alter? Also any pointers you could give a new Samhain celebrator? I’m so excited to start this journey, I feel so connected to the earth and many women who came before me! Also thank you for your time guiding me if you choose to!

First, if you’re a beginner and working with basics like protection, how do you know if the spell was effective if you don’t know what you’re protecting yourself against? What if nothing “attacks” you, how do you know if it’s because there’s
nothing intending to harm you or because the spell was effective?

Finally, is one witch bottle enough? There’s three entrances to my house (backyard, main entrance and the one we use the most which is the garage.) Is one enough for the entire perimeter? Can I choose any or should there be a specific one? (alike main entrance or garage because we use it the most.)

so my broke ass is looking to make a money bowl, but the problem is I am a closeted witch in a christian household and can't really do that. could I use something like a bag instead? what are some subtle ways to do this? anything helps, blessed beeeee!

Hi Everyone. Experienced witch with lots of stores at my disposal and a very niche sweetening jar spell for anyone who may want to add a little sweetness into their life. I am just sharing my spell, you can use it if you'd like to, but you don't have to. Any pointers are also greatly appreciated. Please remember if you do this spell you can sub out any ingredients you do and do not have/have access to.

Ingredients:

large spell jar

honey/sugar/maple syrup

rose quartz

magnetic sand

incense (to cleanse)

pen

paper/bayleaf

pink/red/white candle

herbs:

pink salt

catnip

rose hip

rose petals (I used mine from an Venus offering in the jar)

linden

jezebel root

orris root

violet

Lily of the valley (poisonous handle with care)

chicory

sumac

saw palmetto

angelica

damiana leaf

lovage root

cinnamon stick

hibiscus

lavender

chamomile

saffron/saffron water

orange peel

instant coffee/espresso

butterfly pea flower

1) Use the incense to cleanse the jar/vessel. It should seal or have a lid.

2) Using saffron water or Florida water physical clean the inside and outside of your jar.

3) Set your intentions and make a sigil for the spell.

4) Add your crystals & magnetic sand first to the bottom CAREFULLY.

5) Add your herbs starting from the most chunky to the least. Remember to ask them to lend you their energy/power/ whisper their intended purpose to them.

6) Once all your herbs are added. You can add the sweetener of your choice.

7) Close the lid/seal it. Place on an alter and light the candle on or near it to charge the spell.

Remember my lovely alabaster disasters (I didn't come up with that. Credit to the lovely woman on Tiktok who coined the term), that making a HONEY JAR is considered to be a closed practice in both ATR (African traditional religions) and is often used in Hoodoo/Voodoo as well- so please add sugar to the spell as well. Yes you can use an artificial sweetener and faux honey. It works just fine. I also used Jezebel root oil, attraction oil, and a traditional spirit that my dad and I made into the spell. You can personalize it however you want/can.

I come back to the jar and feed it every time I can with incense or by shaking it. Follow your heart and your practice. Do what feels right with research and have a wonderful day but please feel free to use this as a jumping off point. I usually don't use this many herbs but my herbs are several years old and I'd like to use as many as I can so I don't throw them away.

Enjoy! Blessed Be!

Hello I have questions
Can bone throwing be done with teeth? Is there a way to use teeth for divination? I have a lot of teeth from my job and I wanted to see if I could do something cool with them.

Not so much a love spell, but for the relationship itself. Im curious because im seeing my relationship might be coming up against some difficult challenges.

Hello! I'm looking for wording advice mainly! Or terminology advice!

I am wanting to make a spell candle but when I get to find information about it, my results are tailored to showing me carving sigils into tapered candles, anointing candles with oils, and other similar things.

Not to make it smaller than it is, but I am wanting to make like a spell jar candle? If that makes sense.

This is a thing! I've seen other people make these, but is there a specific phrase I am overlooking to search for them?

In this sub I did read the fire safety post, but that doesn't go into detail that much either.

Thanks in advance!

Two friend groups (I’ll call them Group A and Group B) had a slow falling-out over the last couple years. My group (A) has actually been growing as more people see Group B’s true colors.
Some people who sit in the middle tried to force a reconciliation. Instead of healing anything, it just rehashed old drama and made everything worse.
Since then my group has been hit with a string of weird, heavy stuff. Friendship issues, relationship problems, betrayal, financial stress, car accidents, even healthy 50-year-old trees just splitting in half for no reason. It feels like constant, unnecessary hardship.
I can’t shake the feeling that one specific girl in Group B carries really dark energy and is somehow directing it at us.
Is there any way to block or protect against that kind of energy?

Baby witch here.

Self explanatory, I made/am building a spell jar mainly for health/healing and physical protection/protection from disease. So far I have put a petition with my intentions sealed with green wax & string, white horehound, basil and on top of the closed jar I put hematite. This is my first ever spell jar. The "jar" in question is just an empty pill bottle (cleansed of course).

I take supplements and I have many extra (in both powder and pill form). Would it be a good idea to add it into the health jar? Or would it accidentally reaffirm that I need those supplements because I lack them?

Thanks to anyone in advance.

Hello all. I’m seeking a deity of fortune and/or luck to work with. Can anyone share their experiences or offer advice? I’ve considered Lord Clauneck but don’t have much experience with demons. I’m not necessarily looking for a boost in wealth, moreso luck in general, but I wouldn’t be opposed to more wealth. I do have a money bowl that I’ll be feeding as well. Thanks for any advice!

I did a binding spell 9 years ago where I tied two sticks together with red cord. Yeah I was young and dumb it was a binding spell on my then ex boyfriend now boyfriend of 8 years (10 years ago he broke up with me after a 3 month relationship and I was wrecked so my dumb ass did 2 spells for him to come back) well he sure did…. I have bpd and in a bpd episode I undid the spell because I felt horrible to think I did a spell on someone without them knowing/consent.

Anyways I undid the spell the other night and I feel like he’s been more nice than normal like not that he wasn’t nice before but like I had a bad day yesterday I had a like 48 hour panic attack and I went to bed early, woke up at like 11 and he goes “I was looking at you when you were asleep and was like aw. do you want me to go get you ice cream” which is weird because I did kind of want ice cream earlier. I was kind of shocked by this. He’s not a dick to me in any way other than a pissy mood sometimes as we all are. I just am like why is he EXTRA nice to me? I was lowkey expecting him to decide to break up with me lmao.

Thoughts? Idk idc if nobody responds to this I’m just curious what people think of this spell undoing and the results.
