Witch Tip

If you need to remember chants for a bath/shower spell, use soap crayons! Also good for sigils, other symbols or motivational words.

Soap Crayons - How to Make

Tools/Ingredients:

A bar of soap

Grater

Fork

Food coloring

Warm water

Cookie cutters

Instructions:

Grate the soap into a bowl

Add 1.5 tablespoons of warm water

Mix the warm water and grated soap with a fork.

Add at least 4 drops of food colouring and mix

Roll out log shapes or use cookie cutters to create your crayons

Leave crayons out overnight to air dry and harden

In the morning you will have tools to mark up your bath with magic that can easily be washed away with water

Tips:

You can separate your mixture to create different colours

If the mixture is too hard to mix with a fork use your hands to knead the mixture together

Lavender Water

I got the idea to make this water a while ago when I was shopping around at my local Botanica where they had a lovely but quite expensive Aqua de Lavender. If you already have lavender, OR know where to get it at a decent price this can cost you around 7 bucks, Compared to like 15.

The uses for Waters are literally endless but I’m making my Lavender Water to help with Anxiety, For cleansing Baths, Cleansing air mist, and cleansing Spray. Notice a theme here? 

To make yours you will need 3 things. 

Lavender Buds

100 proof Vodka, Or White Vinegar (I used vinegar here)

A glass Container 

To get your Lavender the most fragrant give it a nice grind in a mortar and pestle, Or bowl. Add the lavender to your bottled liquid and shake it the hell up. Thats it.

Within an hour the color will deepen into a nice purple, ruby tint.

You can strain the lavender once it has reached your desire scent / color but I like to keep mine in.

Enjoy!

Reading A Candle

Watch your candles closely and learn to read them to help you with your practice.

The Flame

A strong flame: It means that your energies are raised. There is a lot of power behind your spell and little to no resistance. Indicates that all your power and energy is focused on your manifestation. This is a good sign. If a candle shaped into a figure is used and has a strong flame it means that whoever it represents is either angry, winning, or using authority over another. When their are two figures the candle with the higher flame has authority over the other person.   

A weak flame: Indicates that the magick you cast is facing a heavy opposition and is a sign that you may need to recast your spell in order to overcome the opposing force. On a figure candle this may indicate that the representative may be loosing a battle or an argument. 

A jumping flame: This indicates strong emotions. There may also be some sort of resistance against you. Maybe close your circle and bring your mind back to focus before continuing. It may also mean an explosion of energy. When two figure candles are being used it often means that an energetic or a heated argument is taking place between them.  

A noisy candle: Indicates a conversation. It may may that a spirit is trying to send you a message or get in contact with you. The louder the noises get the more urgent communication must be. 

The flame catches something on fire: Someone one may be using malicious magick against you.  

A clean even burning candle: Means your spell and manifestations are likely to come true.

Fast Burn: The results of your spell will happen quickly.

Flickering Flame: If there is no breeze then it means a spirit is near by. If it is a devotional flame it means you were able to get in contact with your deity.

Cannot blow the flame out: A spirit may not be finished its conversation with you or you did not complete a spell. The spirit needs to complete its work, something may be may in the works that you do not want to interrupt. 

A flame goes out while burning: This means the spirits cannot help you and the answer you seek is already determined.  

The Smoke

Black smoke/soot: Your energy and magick is being blocked. Negative energy is being sent your way, whether as a curse or hex. You may soon be faced with tough challenges and a hard road ahead of you. 

Smoke wafts towards you: It means your call will likely be answered or your spell has been cast successfully. You will get results quickly.

Smoke wafts away from you: You must work harder in order for your calls to be answered.

Watch the direction the smoke wafts: East - Something powerful is assisting you, North - You are ready to begin your ritual and get results, South - The spell will be successful, West - A powerful interference from an outside force.

Smoking Candle: Negative energy is being burned away.

The Wax

When a candle leaves wax residue: Your spell may need to be repeated.

Look for symbols in the candle wax, like reading tea leaves.
