♎️Pink moon in Libra spread 💕

Top card- Where is there a lack of equilibrium

Left middle card- one side of the conflict

Right middle card- other side of the conflict

Bottom left card- what can bring them together

Bottom right card- what is the right thing to do

Goddess of knives (flipped): this card normally represents a fully blossomed intellectual. however, because it is flipped and in this placement, it represents a lack of learning or an unstimulated mind.

The fool (flipped): normally this would represent new beginnings or potential energetic, but because of its placement and that it’s flipped, it represents laziness or the idea that something is ending.

Judgement: of course this card would show up in a libra spread. normally this card would represent a moral compass or seeking balance but because it’s reversed, it represents an imbalance or the idea that you’re making bad decisions.

Ace of knives (flipped): this once again represents the idea of learning and intellect, and because it is flipped it tells us to try and learn about things we maybe don’t consider important.

The emperor (flipped): this card would normally represent creating and maintaining physically order, but because it is flipped, it suggests once again that we look towards intellect.

Summary: of course this deck was filled with air cards and judgement, it’s in the true libra spirit! this spread suggests that either you or someone close to you is unstimulated mentally. on one side, things look very bleak and you’re feeling a push towards laziness, and on the other side there is an imbalance or lack of good decisions. we can bring these two sides together and help fix them by trying new things in the sense of learning, maybe getting a coloring book or even doing some math to stay stimulated. and finally the right thing to do, curtesy of the Emporer, is to look not to material order, but to intellectual order.

Hope you all had a lovely full moon and blessed be🔮✨

🕯️ place a pinch of rosemary into the white candle’s wick

🕯️ light the white candle with the red, and burn the rosemary.

Daily Draw

four of stones (flipped): the stones suit indicated financial and materialism while four indicated blanace and tolerance. however, because this is flipped, it indicates an imbalance in finances or a career. take the time to asses what you’re investing in and your career, or maybe you are being too materialistic and need to focus on the real finer things in life that can’t be touched

Have a lovely day and blessed be 🔮✨

New home spell:

cast your circle

bless each direction and element

ask for protection for the home and banish all evil that may enter the house

extra idea: take some stones and bless them with intentions and place them in the desired area of the house

also did a nice celtic cross spread, turned out very interesting.

Daily draw: two of feathers

the feathers is the fire suit, corresponding with passion and drive. the number two is representative of dreaming, sensitivity, and conception. this card therefore, shows a conception of new passion or a new undertaking beginning. it could also represent you being dreamily in love with a person or idea. this card warns against complacency and while it’s nice to dream on your ideas, make sure to act at some point before the window of opportunity closes.

have a blessed day🔮✨

Uses for Moon Water 🌙

Due to popular demand, I’ve decided to make a post on the uses of moon water! 

Add a drop to lunar spell jars based on intent

Add to a bath for cleansing and relaxation

Rinse and cleanse your hair with it in the shower

Purify and use in consumable potions for enhanced psychic abilities, relaxation, protection, or dreamwork

Make a cleansing spray and use in your home

Sprinkle a few drops around the perimeter of your home or bedroom

Use to anoint and cleanse objects such as magickal tools or crystals

Use to anoint yourself before spellwork or divination, or simply to promote peace and relaxation

Use to charge objects with lunar energy

Water your plants with it

Add it to your water cup when painting to promote imaginative thinking 

Add a few drops to the washer before washing bedsheets to promote dreaming

Use as a representation of either water, the moon, or both on your altar

Combine with corresponding crystals or herbs for an added boost of energy

Fill a hollow pendant with it and wear it to represent the moon, a particular lunar phase, or one of its associated correspondences (protection, relaxation, enhanced psychic abilities, etc.)

Anoint a charm with moon water and carry it with you for protection, safe travels, or improved memory 

Tips & a few words of caution:

Always purify and filter your moon water before consuming

If you plan to add crystals to your moon water, use tumbled stones so they won’t break down in the water (especially if you plan to drink it)

If you do plan to consume your moon water, store it in the fridge to extend it’s shelf life

Don’t water your plants with cold moon water; make sure it’s lukewarm or at room temperature first

If you’re unsure on what kind of intentions correspond to lunar energy, check out the links below 

These are just some ideas on how to use moon water, but feel free to get creative!

Daily draw: Temperance (flipped)

normally, this is a positive card, representing a balance between the higher self and the human self. however, flipped, it indicated a lack of harmony, that you are focusing on one aspect of your life more then another. for those of you in quarantine who are feeling helpless and spending the days watching tv, this is a wake up call. these are stressful times, but giving into lethargy and apathy will only make these times worse. find something to keep you active, physically or mentally. and stay safe witches!

have a lovely day and blessed be🔮✨

Water Masterpost - uses for magic

Hello my little sprigs! I just made a short “masterpost” of water types. I know there are a lot of these floating around, but I had to do this because I remember things better when I write them down tbh so why shouldn´t I post it.This is out of my grimoire, I added some personal references.

waters you have to “make”: moon water ritual cleansing, spell work, dream work, astral travel - but moon water can be used for almost everything

sun water ritual cleansing, self esteem, social anxiety, truth and the revealing of lies, enlightment

shadow water strengthening of lies, hiding ones location, tarnishing relationships

gutter water curses.

waters you can gather: sea/ocean water healing, psychich work, the ability to adapt changes, manifestation of goals, strenght, glamours

river water changes, moving forward, warding, releasing emotions and feelings

lake water (inner) peace, relaxation, reflection of thoughts and/or emotions

rain water light rain: (gentle) energy, protection, growth, finding truth heavy rain: energy, destruction, curses as well as cleansing

storm water force, motivation, relaxation, spells regarding anger and releasing (unwanted) feelings

swamp water banishing and binding, cursing, protection (to attract negativity and redirecting it from you)

waterfall water power, energy, success, moving forward, bravery

ice water transformation, balance, creativity

snow water purity, resolutions, balance

dew fertility, love, glamours, growth

fog creativity, hiding truth, protection (via hiding your location), curses

flower vase water growth, glamours, depending on the flower that was in there different uses

[etherealwitchery]

☀️Sun water☀️

🌞Used for:

Protection, healing (especially physical), happiness, truth, clairvoyance, courage, strength, prosperity, luck, self-love, cleansing, confidence, leadership, justice, gardening, growth, warmth, comfort, fertility, and creativity

🌞How to make it:

Leave the water on a sunny windowsill or outside, preferably in direct sunlight. Sunrise, 9 am, 12 pm, and 3 pm are perfect times for this, or you can leave it from sunrise to sunset. You can also add herbs and flowers to it as well (lemon peels, orange peels, marigolds, chamomile, cinnamon, sunflower, etc.) Or charge it with some stones (like sunstone, orange calcite, citrine, tigers eye, goldstone or carnelian), but please don’t put these stones in the water. You can also make a sun tea with sun water for a very potent solar spell.
