🌿Minimizing Waste as a Hearth Witch🌿

Minimizing waste saves money and the environment. With a little creativity, there are many ways you can create opportunities to reduce waste and maximize the supplies you have.

🍄 Keep your jars. If you buy something that comes in a useful container and can be reused - then reuse it. In my experience, the best reuse for plastic containers is to freeze food. Also, small bottles like Advil bottles, are EXCELLENT spell jars. However, for all types, you can use them to store food, organize drawers and closets, store spell ingredients, or even make decorations. The possibilities are nearly endless!

🍄Keep all your fruit, vegetable, and herb scraps. With some scraps and water, you can make a lovely broth. Alternatively, you can use them to make a simmer pot for a spell or simply for the scent.

🍄If you eat meat, keep the bones. Again, a great broth ingredient!

🍄Avoid paper towels whenever possible. These are super wasteful and expensive. Whenever possible, I opt to use a towel or cloth. You can recycle old textiles for rags. However, if you're feeling ambitious you can knit or crochet towels and cloths; this is a great way to use up that scrap yarn you probably have laying around! You may even choose to add a bit of knot magic to these pieces.

🍄Thrift and upcycle. This is a bit of an obvious one; but really. It's a great way to have lovely belongings while reducing waste overall and saving money. With a bit of love, many things can be new.

🍄Almost every dish can be salvaged. It happens. We mess up. But, before you throw it away, do some research on how to salvage it. Odds are, you will be able to do it!

🍄Don't throw away fruits or vegetables that are overripe or wilting. Within reason, of course, many of these fruits and vegetables can be frozen for soups, casseroles, sauces, and smoothies!

🍄Buy a reusable coffee filter and tea basket for loose tea. Really, this is a given if you are a tea or coffee lover. Disposable ones are so wasteful and the reusable ones will pay for themselves in no time.

🍄Compost if you can. Compost dirt is amazing for growing ingredients for dishes and spells. While you're at it, save your eggshells, as well.

🍄Mend your clothes, blankets, and even shoes. A little bit of love can go a long way, including increasing the life of your favorite items. You can also add flair by learning how to darn and apply patches.

🍄Learn how to remove stains from fabric. In the same vein as mending, learning how to remove stains increases the life of your clothes. Different stains require different methods of removal, but usually, it is not impossible. Failing this, learn how to dye your clothes to revamp them.

🍄Use alternative cosmetics. This is a really big topic and I will create a post about this later. But, consider doing research. There are lots of things that can be made or substituted; notably face masks, hair masks, and using coconut oil as a make-up remover.

🍄Localize your practice. Use natural herbs and ingredients found in your local environment. Create your own correspondence if needed.

🍄Collect rainwater. Unfortunately, it is no longer a great idea to drink rainwater - but use it to water plants and clean your floors. Rainwater is also a powerful spell ingredient for spells that don't require drinking or putting on your skin.

🍄Only buy what you need. This time of year more than ever it is VERY tempting to buy up cheap Halloween-themed goods. But, consider an item's long-term usefulness, if it will create clutter and disorder in your home in the future, and if there are alternatives.

🍄Buy a cheap food dehydrator. These are perfect for making tea and drying out herbs, flowers, and other ingredients for spells and cooking.

🍄Consider alternatives in cooking and spells. There is always an alternative, you may not have to buy something new.

🍄Meals and beverages as spells. As a full-blown kitchen, I believe spells eaten and drank are extremely powerful. It also saves on ingredients.

This was well-received on Instagram and the clock app, so here's the easiest way to acquire red brick dust for Southern folk magic. You absolutely do not need to pay $20 for a tiny bag online, I promise.

I made this ancestor tree for Samhain years ago and realized I don’t think I ever posted a tutorial on how I made it. If you’d like to try making your own, I’d love to see how they come out!!

Feel free to save this image and share!

People who use animal symbolism in their practice:

Don't overlook those little plastic toy animals! This strawberry dart frog is going to be an anchor for a ward.

Did I know Morning Glories were vine plants? No

Do I know now? Yes

Did I have access to a trellis for them? No

Did I make some out of kabob skewers because I found a 100 pack of long skewers for less than $2? Yes

Am I now thinking about making rune trellis for my future garden? Yes

I made myself some back flow incense cones last night to use with the incense holder I made the other day. They’re cinnamon, clove & honey and they smell amazing already.

Then, last night I finally got the opportunity to catch some rain water. I’ve been wanting to collect some for a few weeks but every time it rains it’s either not enough rain or over too quickly. I’m excited 😆

I feel amazing today. Full of self love and acceptance. I feel empowered. I feel like I mean something to the universe 🥰 I hope you all can feel it also 🫶🏾 Have an AMAZING day and happy witching ❤️‍🔥

I tried my hand at making prayer beads for the entities I worship and work with!

Obviously not every bead correlates to an entity, but I do have a list in my spell book of which ones correlate with who. I even added some for my familiar and my ancestors.

I figure this is a nice way to honor them all, especially since I made it on a Sabbat.

Example of next year's spiritual calendar! I have a Telegram chat channel where I put all the messages, reminders, notes, whatever 🌟 Upper Management 🌟 needs me to jot down.

Each cycle (kvi) has its own spiritual focus/guide. I used to change out altars and focus every month but I started noticing the energy change happening pretty consistently with the New Moon, thus I switched to Kvi (it just means month in the language I use for my magic writing). Name is easy, [Guides name or Focus] + Kvi. for example, Björkvi is the month for my guide Björge (sorry, no veneration Kvi for Björk). Stidikvi is the only deviantion from this, stidim is the word for ancestor.

None of the Mudoran/Hylian pantheon have there own Kvi since they have an altar up all year round, and also they kind of show up around the same times as some of the other folks so every day Hylia day lol. Hylia usually pops on around Lamkvi with Lamiya, then gets a boost around D'sukvi(hello tears of the Kingdom release???), then pops up again around Junakvi/Stidikvi since you know veil thinning/convention season and such.

Stidikvi and Eliakvi are the only ones that take the whole Greg month, mostly because that's kind of a rest period and there's SO much going on during those months in my personal life (birthday, anniversary, candle nights/Christmas/yule, birthday again, new year smth or other) that I forget whosewhatwherewhen anywhow.

I write these dates on the good old Greg calender since it's pretty easy to find one that has moon phases included!

CALLING ALL WITCHES (or friends of witches)

I’ve been making custom spell jars for a while now and would love to expand that part of my practice! Looking to transition from gifts for friends to a nice little side hustle lol. If anyone is interested, please feel free to reply or DM or anything of the sort! Happy to provide examples (with photos!) upon request 🥰 xoxo

some representations I made for the planets for spell work. the first picture has wax seals using colors that I already had. the second picture features rounds of air dry clay, shaped and painted. I really enjoyed making both of these, I might use them in tandem but I haven’t decided yet!

Winter Solstice Spiced Bourbon

With the Winter Solstice just around the corner I've decided to make myself some infused bourbon for the cold season.

This can be used for spiritual offerings, served at celebrations, or incorporated into rituals and spellwork. It makes a great spiced Old Fashioned or Manhattan.

Ingredients

2 cups bourbon

5 whole cloves

1 cinnamon stick

1 sprig of rosemary, dried or fresh

Zest of orange, peeled into strips

10 dried cranberries (I used dried cranberries infused with pomegranate.)

Instructions

Combine all ingredients in a glass jar or bottle. Seal and shake well.

Store in a cool, dry place for 7 days.

Strain into a new sealed container. If the flavor is too strong, let the infusion rest for another 3-5 days.

If you want to get fancy, you can use a cocktail smoker to smoke the infusion just before sealing. This will result in a more complex flavor profile with a woodsy aroma.
