Fork In The Road Tarot Spread

“Fork in the Road” Tarot Spread

A good spread to help you evaluate two decisions and their possible outcomes.

Grimoire Herb Garden

Make a page with a pocket. I’m a big fan of journals with page pockets xD. Decorate the pocket to look like a chest or a bottle. Or a little flower pot. Make it shaped like a bottle if you want. Remember to leave one side open so you can use the pocket!

On a separate sheet of paper, draw pictures of your favorite herbs and flowers. Or cut pictures of flowers from magazines. Or print pictures of herbs from the internet. Color them in if you drew them. Paint them. Make them sparkle with old nail polish.

Cut them out.

On the back of each one, you could write their correspondences, your favorite thing to use each one for, or a recipe.

On the back of your lavender, you could put that it helps with sleep and draw the moon and some stars.

On the back of your rose, you could put that it represents love and draw lots of hearts in different shades of red, pink, and purple.

On the back of your picture of your bergamot, you could put a picture of a smiling sun, and write that it brings joy and positivity

Once all your herbs are done, put them in your pocket. Now you have your very own herb garden hiding in your Grimoire!

Bonus ideas: repeat the same with fruit. Make an orchard. Build a cave and hide crystals behind stalagmites and stalactites. Or an ocean with different shells and sea glass hiding in the sand and sea weed. Your Grimoire is your world. Create it.

To Wake Up Early Sigil 

It is said that it takes your body 20 days to get used to something like waking up early… but if you don´t want to wait that long or need some help use this sigil 🌞

university/college witch tips

☕️ brew a cup of tea in between, after, and/or before classes. use herbs according to certain correspondences(I personally use lavender & chamomile after class, rosemary & mugwort before or in between if I have enough time). stir in sugar with intention. pour in a thermos if you’re on the go.

☀️ wake up 20 minutes early and meditate. set intentions or goals for the day, say your prayers, give thanks to the universe or to your deity, focus on your chakras. whatever feels right and simple, make it a part of your morning. [alternative: if you have 20 minutes in between classes this can really help you unwind before your next class]

🎧 instead of listening to your regular music, find something spiritually enriching to listen to when you have a moment. there’s plenty of wonderful spirits on youtube, instagram, etc. that speak to me on a daily. listen to an astrology forecast, a tarot reading, info on certain gods or deities, other witches and their practice, anything that resonates with you. [alternative: find witchy playlists on spotify, tumblr, or 8tracks* ]

📔 combine your practice with your planner. jot down the astrological influences of each week/day. track your tea intake. record pre-planned workings/spellwork/rituals/etc. dedicate a spread to your intentions each Moon cycle, at the end of the cycle cross off everything that manifested, migrate the remaining intentions to the next spread. this is a great pastime when you’re bored in class

♥️ shuffle your tarot/Oracle/etc. cards in class. take them with you throughout the day, let them experience what you do. at the end of the day ask them for their thoughts, or any other thing you feel. make sure to cleanse your deck however you prefer after a long day, your cards will absorb all the energy around you and it may lead to them acting wonky

🖊 draw sigils to help you study and prepare for tests. if you’re struggling with lateness, come up with a sigil to help you be more time efficient. if you suck at homework, write a symbol for wisdom or focus on yourself before you start doing it. sigils are an urban witches best friend

💸 to save money, diy items for your altar. if you live on a college campus, there’s plenty of places where people give away unwanted items either or free or really cheap. get them, if they resonate. paint them, sculpt around them, whatever. then put it on your altar
