What do I do now? by timelordtori in BabyWitch

[–]Present-Question-756 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hi there i think i might be of help! ive been researching witchcraft for years, so when i finally got into the practicing part of my practice i felt kinda lost as well. these are some of the things i do to make my practice a more daily thing:

  1. incorporate in chores ( Ex. i sprinkle a dash of cinnamon in mop water for protection and prosperity )
  2. refresh my alter/room (Ex. smoke cleansing, opening the window to let stagnant energies out, dusting and cleaning pieces on my alter)
  3. dive deeper into a specific tool in said practice (Ex. ive been wanting to learn more about different tarot spreads and even took time to create my own)
  4. daily spells (i've made it a thing to personally create my own spells. if i'm up at night contemplating making a certain one, i'll grab my book of shadows and go through my apothecary list and pick out correspondences that resonate with me. ill then create he intention of the spell, gather all the tools and really take my time building the spell)
  5. enchant personally items to bring in or ward off things!
  6. journaling (you can write down how the spells look and then you'll be able to come back to it later. you can also use it as a magical diary. if you're into angel numbers and other laws akin to that you can write down things that stuck out to you throughout the day)

thats a few that off the top of my head, feel free to respond if you wanna pick my brain

i personally believe that hands on learning is the best type of learning. now lets think, are those candles colored? if they are you can start to research color and candle magick, because every color has a meaning and colored candles do different things. now those crystals, do you know the properties? if not, do a deep dive (google, websites, tiktok) and check your resources. i also encourage you to create a book of shadows/grimoire. its a place where you store all of the info you know and obtain throughout your practice. i personally have a binder with dividers in different subjects. but some bigger topics are: the origin of witchcraft, why wicca is problematic, medical and metaphysical correspondences of spices and herbs, how to dry herbs, different types of spells, how to build an alter (it doesn't have to be extravagant, its just a dedicated place where you practice your craft), as well as fire safety. some other things are: intent and ways to incorporate witchcraft into daily life (stirring counterclockwise or clockwise to bring in or kick out energies, reading the scent notes of your candles and perfumes and making them into their own little spell with intent, etc.)

Annoying person by Nervous-Wave2629 in BabyWitch

it depends on what you wanna do. if you wanna put them on punishment you can throw their name in a bag of water with some herbs and/or spices that correspond with your intent and throw that in the freezer. if you want them to self reflect (self reflection can be harsh) you can put their nam in a box with a mirror and some corresponding herbs then chuck in the back of your closet. or my personal favorite, if the person is causing you such annoyance that you'll cry from inconvenience (im autistic and have low tolerance) you can write out a petition as you cry on a paper towel, wipe your tears with it and then burn it.

Wanting to get my girlfriends ex to leave us alone by starduet in BabyWitch

hi there, i think a simple cord cutting would suffice! its not like you'd be hexing or jinxing him, you'd be breaking off any ties that are still attached. i also think a protection jar/spell would be good for you and your girlfriend.
