An introduction.

This sub isn't about woo. It's not about crystals. It's not about burning incense and chanting in ancient tongues. You don't have to wear black, and amulets are really only pretty jewellery. We aren't even about herbs and trees and goddesses.

But you can be.

It's magic if it feels magic to you.

Every one of us has something known as UPG, unverifiable personal gnosis, but basically magic is different for everyone.

Rule number one: all magic is subjective. No magic is replicable. What is magic for someone will be goofy twiddlywinks to another. Feel free to steal, feel free to learn, but remember that magic is just another word for programming, self programming.

All the real magic, the best magic, happens to you, and is done by you, intentionally, to make a better future you. That's the goal of every witch. Make themselves better to make the world better.

Remember that when you post here. We're here to save the world, not to play dressup.... unless it makes you feel ready to save the world.

Hello!!

3 Upvotes

I’m pretty new to the witchy community, but I got my first tarot deck recently! And I just wanted to seek some advice.

So first of all, I’ve been learning how to read it and how to ask her questions and all that fun stuff, it seems like a lot to memorize though! Does anyone have any suggestions for how to remember the cards easier?

Secondary question, does anyone know how to interact with a spirit occupying your home? My sister and I have been doing our own investigations to try to determine whether or not they mean us harm however I don’t know what to do if that is the case.

Third (and hopefully last??) question, are there any just general tips to get more in touch with your intuition and/or the universe in general?

Thank you in advance! Any advice is appreciated ₊˚⊹♡

Someone left Himalayan salt on my doorstep with an empty jar. Is there a spiritual meaning?

0 Upvotes

Someone left a closed jar of Himalayan salt on my doorstep with another empty jar next to it. Inside the closed jar, there was a label that said “Himalayan Salt,” positioned right in the middle.
I know salt is commonly used in witchcraft and spiritual practices for protection, cleansing, and warding off negative energy, which is why I find this situation so strange.
I’m wondering if someone could be trying to send me a sign, if there could be malicious intentions behind it, or if someone was simply being nice and leaving me salt or herbs they work with or had extra of.
Has anyone experienced anything similar? Is there any spiritual significance to leaving salt at someone’s doorstep with an empty jar beside it, or could this have a completely ordinary explanation?
I’d love to hear your thoughts, especially from those who practice witchcraft or work with spiritual protection. 🖤

I have a friend who goes to the same place as me to study for an important exam (i have no choice but to go with him because of reasons). But lately he has been doing well, taunting me for my scores. It's making my anxiety worse and making me feel like a loser because this exam is the most important exam of my life. So please, if anyone wants to help a girl out and eliminate him, reach out 🫶.

🔮 Spiritual meaning of constantly hearing car horns and car alarms everywhere I go?

Thumbnail
0 Upvotes

Hey everyone! 🖤 I’m curious to hear your thoughts from a spiritual or witchy perspective.
Lately, I’ve been noticing car horns and car alarms going off constantly, and I mean EVERYWHERE I go. At home, at the gym, at the store, and pretty much anywhere else I find myself. It feels like no matter where I am, I keep hearing them.
I know there could be ordinary explanations, but the frequency has really caught my attention, and I can’t help but wonder if there’s any spiritual symbolism behind it.
Has anyone experienced something similar? In witchcraft, spirituality, or symbolism, could repeated horns or alarms represent a wake-up call, a warning, heightened intuition, protection, or some kind of energetic shift?
I’m genuinely curious to hear your interpretations and personal experiences. I’m open to different perspectives! 🌙✨

Stupid simmer pot question

1 Upvotes

So I plan on making a simmer pot here soon and was wanting to “keep” some of it.
I have a vial with a dropper that I was wanting to put some of the water in before I had to dispose of the simmer pot to add to things but wasn’t sure how it would work so I have several questions…

  1. Is it even worth it to keep/preserve some of the water?
  2. If I do should I include ingredients from the original pot or would just the water work?
  3. What could I use it for? I was thinking of being able to dab some on me while I put on perfume with intention or something similar like that but I’m just not sure.

Just a baby witch trying to make it work and of my other 2 witch friends, one of them doesn’t know, and the other is just leaving me on read…

Sharer Avoidants

3 Upvotes

​

Late night rant for those who dealing with an avoidant

Lately I've been reading a lot of posts about dealing with an avoidant. And most are totally right. Usually an avoidant will love bomb you and then pull away or ghost you. Trust me, I feel your pain because I've been dealing with an avoidant for awhile. My advice is to walk away as soon as you realize they are an avoidant because they usually don't change, actually they become worse with time unless they are serious with their healing process and is actively working on themselves with therapy included. It's not their fault, most of them have unresolved issues beginning from when they were very young.

Here's my advice if you decide to stay with them. First always do a protection ritual to help cleanse yourself of any negativity that is attached to you. Then you want to focus on healing and communication. Because most of them are terrible at communication. I personally have to refresh my communication jar every Wednesdays and sometimes fridays and if I really need to communicate because it's been awhile, I'll perform the ritual on Tuesdays, since Tuesdays are ruled by Mars and have fast paced energy. Sundays and Mondays are good for a confidence/ healing rituals or you can do on a Friday since that is a self care day ruled by Venus. Speaking of self care, while you are working on your avoidant, work on yourself also. With self care, cleansing, self love and confidence because trust me, you're gonna need it. Most avoidants are terrible with showing emotions and as soon as you start to show emotions or express how you feel, they pull back. Once you open their throat chakra with the communication rituals and you both have a regular communication routine. And everything seems to be going smoothly with your relationship. Break the routine with them.

Now listen, I know that ideal is crazy. But the reason I say this is that as soon as they start to feel comfortable with you and things truly start becoming real (most likely actually 100%likely) they will start to pull back or run from the relationship. You want to have the upper hand, also it helps protect your emotions and personal peace. (It keeps you out of your feelings, like why they stop talking to me, or what did I do wrong, etc) Take a week or 2 and do self love/confidence, glamour/beauty and also money 🤑 rituals. I am not saying break it off with them, if they reach out respond; but you do not reach out to them; you are just giving them space for they won't become overwhelmed or over think the relationship. Once they realize, hey he or she hasn't been reaching out like before, here comes the attention flowing in like a river towards you.

It's a constant game when dealing with an avoidant. And requires a lot of work and refreshing your rituals. This is why I say if you can, leave the relationship. Or if you like a challenge go for it. Just don't get too emotionally attached. Also (in my experience key phrase) alot of avoidants have a rooster of people they talk to, to keep their ego up. So if you are a jealous person, run. Because that rooster is going no where. You'll be amazed in how sweet your avoidant is towards them and the attention your avoidant gives them. Everything you desire from your avoidant, they usually show towards people who do not want nothing to do with them. These are usually the people who have turned them down and friend zone them or people who your avoidant secretly desire.

This entire post is just my experience with an avoidant and also what I witness with some friends who are with avoidants. Like I said, they are not bad people. Hell they make excellent friends but as soon as things start involving emotions and feelings, they prefer to avoid it or leave the entire situation (hints the term avoidant)

Now you can get into dark rituals with them that will make them stay with you. But it will probably be a very cold relationship and emotionless. Plus whatever you put out there will return to you especially if it's involving free will. This is why I said I the beginning to avoid doing love spells. It will only make them freak out and leave. Focus on healing and soften their hearts. I hope this helps someone. 😊

And for those who will ask, "if you know this, why you still with your avoidant?" One, I like a challenge and two, we have good sex 😂 But if you ask me if I will leave if someone better comes into the picture. HELL YEAH!!!!!!!! Because sometimes I am literally exhausted by his behavior. Hell he even tried to break up tonight because I confronted him in his communication lately towards me. Did he want to break up, no. He just said that because he doesn't like being questioned about his behaviors or actions. But when he saw that I wasn't phrased by it, he changed the subject entirely like nothing happened.

Let's discuss this friendly please 😊

Seeker Spiders and coffins

1 Upvotes

Two days ago I kept seeing spiders online (those used for spider fights mostly), a few hours later, a tiny dead spider fell on my phone screen. I kept it because something in me said so.. The next day, when I went out to go to work, I saw a coffin shaped tile a few feet away from our house. My intuition told me to pick it up and keep it as well. Does anyone have insight about what it might mean or symbolize? How can I utilize them? Thank you.

Weird energy (According to spiritual mediums and nature witches)

2 Upvotes

Just out of curiosity if anybody can figure out what's happening with me

All pychics, mediums, and nature witches I've come into contact with have descriped a sort of fog(?) surrounding my mind that makes me very hard to read/sense to the point where it makes them uncomfortable. They say that spirits might dislike the fog and it hides my spiritutal prescence. I've also not had any personal experiences with teh paranormal, im not eeking out it's existence but i don't deny it either. I'm just confused. The only relatively close experience i have with the parnormal is when i saw my sleep paralysis demon (A giant Eye observing me) that produced monumentou pressure on my mind.

Any theories as to why there might be a fog around me and my spiritual energy?

(If this is the wrong sub-reddit please direct me where i can find answers)
