✨ how to send good vibes! ✨

In the spiritual, metaphysical, and witchy communities, you’ll hear a lot of people say things like “sending love” or “sending good vibes”! fun fact, most people don’t know how to actually do that haha. with a little bit of practice and basic understanding of energy, it’s actually very easy to send simple healing energy to someone. before we jump in, it’s important to note the ethics of energy work. A L W A Y S ask for permission before doing any kind of energy work on someone.  even if you’re only sending positivity! there’s a difference between praying for someone/keeping them in your thoughts and actually sending them energy. you never know how your energy will affect them. maybe they’re not ready to heal. or maybe they’re doing their own healing and your energy might throw theirs out of balance. only do energy work on people who are open to it! 🌙  ✨✨

set an intention of positivity. this is vv important! make sure you make it clear that you only intend to send positivity. I like to say something along the lines of: “may this energy be filled with nothing but love and light” or “my intention is to send only that which is pure”.if you want to send bad vibes, just set the opposite intention (not that I recommend sending anything negative lmao)

get into a meditative state and positive mindset! you can’t effectively send someone good energy if you’re not in a good mental state, first. take some time to breath, meditate, listen to some relaxing music, eat, etc.

visualize that the person is in front of you. Imagine every detail of their appearance as if they’re physically in the room with you. it might take a while to create this image so take your time and breathe through it. don’t rush!

imagine a ball of bright light glowing and expanding from the center of your heart. this is referred to as your heart chakra! feel free to play around with different colors while visualizing. green symbolizes healing energy, pink is the energy of love, and white is cleansing energy. these are the main colors associated with the heart chakra.

next, hold your hand to your heart and imagine your hand absorbing that healing/loving/cleansing energy. at this point, you might physically feel a pulsing or warmness in your hands. make sure you’re still breathing and taking your time!

extend your hand towards the person you’re visualizing and imagine that the energy is flowing through your palms and into their heart center. the pulsing sensation may get stronger at this point! If you don’t feel a pulse, it’s fine. I promise it’s still working!

keep sending the energy until all of that light is drained from your palm!

to close out the session, visualize a waterfall of white energy washing over you and replenishing your energy.

congratulations, you just completed some basic energy work bby! there are so many ways to go about sending energy but this is my favorite way. It’s quick (should take 10-15 minutes) and perfect for beginners!

Organizing a Grimoire

🌹~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~🌹

🍁This isn’t needed, if you prefer the write as you go method that’s fine.

🍁For those of us who prefer to have it organized a table of contents is a must.

🍁Try and plan what your going to write down when. If it helps write down in a notebook or in your book of shadows every idea you can think of putting in your grimoire and number them.

🍁It’s ok if it’s not ‘perfect’ chances are this is your first grimoire so not only is ok its natural to make a few mistakes here and there

🍁Write in pencil if you don’t like crossing out mistakes or using tipex

🍁The key thing to remember is that it doesn’t need to look ‘Tumblr perfect’ as long as you understand it

Cosmic Tonics

Aries: Drink lots of water and move your neck often to make sure it doesn’t become stiff, you probably know the outcome of this and it’s likely a headache. Fast acting relief will only work for so long. You need head massages and wear your glasses like you are supposed to, don’t use your wounds and injuries as another form of exploration. An ice or cool press when feeling unwell, stressed, panicked, or have trouble sleeping can help. When everyone is agitating you, it’s time to stop, breathe, rest, and take some time to yourself

Taurus: Rest your voice, and feel the soothing sense of whipped cream running down your throat. Warm honey in the morning and evening may stop the sore, dry throat you can wake up with. When you don’t have plans tune your daily routine into the sun and moon, sleep when you are tired, eat when you are hungry, and don’t think about time. Affection and neck massages, cooking and enjoying substantial, nourishing, wholesome food is good for your health, but look for the pleasure of satisfaction in moderation, and not excessive and mindless satiation. 

Gemini: You breathe quickly or skip a breath without noticing, so whenever you can remember to take some deep and mindful breaths and just focus on counting them. You need clear lungs so you can keep talking, it’s where your spiritual energy is most abundant, but that fear of boredom, nerves, and urge to do something with your hands can be the reason for smoking and contaminating this sacred place, when you breathe in toxicity there is a moment of relief but a more wrenching tension to follow. You will have better focus and mental productivity with a mindful routine of eating substantial and nourishing food instead of hastily preparing or forgetting, and attending to earthly duties, it helps to reground and rebalance you. Arm, head, and hand massages are good for you 

Cancer: Blocked emotion can upset the inner balance and cause a high rush of sugar cravings or unsatisfying hunger. Hunger pains are not good for you, it means you are not thinking or feeling clearly. Try not to turn on your phone, social media, or news right after you wake up, your emotions are sensitive and easily provoked during this time so it can make you too overwhelmed and exhausted before you even begin the day. Getting as much sunlight and warmth in the morning as possible redirects your compass and spins your diurnal body clock. Taking care of people is also letting them take care of you 

Leo: If you start to feel the blood rush into your face and your cheeks burn it’s time to stop, take deep breaths, slow down your heart, and re-orient yourself. You can’t control time or outside forces, and nobody expects you to either. You will help people more by taking care of yourself when you need it, and not burning yourself out in self-sacrifice. Affection is good for you, so are dogs and babies and old people. Surround yourself with loving people because heartbreak is a physical, emotional, and spiritual breakdown. Lower back massages are good for you, and so is Sun Salutation, solar naps, falling asleep listening to a heartbeat, the press of somebody’s body against your heart 

Virgo: A panadol to relieve a headache won’t poison you, but a ritual of 2 a day probably will. You attach to whatever works with ease and efficiency, so you can adopt quick fixes and band aid habits that become automatic or relied upon as routine. Too little of something can be just as damaging as too much. You push the limits of how far you can go in terms of perfecting and stabilising your work, physical appearance and health, responsibilities, and skills that your inner needs, conditions, and psychological pleasure and balance are pushed aside and begin to decontaminate. While you are chasing that perfect self-image, don’t forget to take care of the one you have now, the one that is real and important. Head, neck, and hand massages are good for you. Dogs and pets are good for your health   

Libra: You need to stay as well hydrated as possible as Libra rules the kidneys and acidic balance, so the strain of collective contaminants can cause low back pain, keeping this area well cleansed and flushed can relieve the pressure. Back massages are good for you and so is the moderation of sugar intake, because you intellectualise as a reflex to emotion, a desire for sweets or insatiable hunger can be a symptom of frustration, a recent conflict, unstable mood or emotional discomfort. You may feel better if you take the help that people offer you   

Scorpio: Try to express, demonstrate, and release your emotions because keeping it inside can be very destructive. If it eventually sinks into the unconscious, you may be up for a trialing and enduring battle trying to find and validate it again. Your past always has a way of coming back to you, regardless of the lengths you take to run from it. Extremist behaviour is part of your nature, your diets can become famines and your exercise schedule can become militant regimes so moderation is important, establish a threshold that is challenging but not lethal

Sagittarius: Restless legs can be a symptom of emotional or psychological tension, lack of substantial movement and motion or too much of it. Your eyes are bigger than your stomach, and your desire is greater than your physical limits it will probably feel better to satisfy yourself until you are full rather than you are sick, not everything has to be a competition with yourself. Thigh and hip massages are good, and so is frequently stretching and keeping these areas flexible. Dogs and pets are good for your health  

Capricorn: A routine of deep stretching or yoga can be very beneficial because there can be a tendency to become extremely stiff, tense, and suffer repetitive stress injuries, it can also relieve the pressure in your back and shoulders. Good, therapeutic conversation where you share and release your worries can stop them building into contamination and straining your skin, causing irritants and reactions, fresh, country or salt water air is also cleansing for your skin

Aquarius: It’s always going to be difficult for you to reach a meditation of ‘thoughtlessness’ because your mind is so active, so establishing a method where you can engage in a sublime, non intrusive rhythm of thought and self reflection can be a meditative state, and because your spiritual energy is contained in the calves, it may be something like taking a long nature walk or swimming. The meditative experience may come easier through group meditation and dogs and pets are good for your health  

Pisces: Anything that massages, soothes, flexes, and restores the feet is good and nourishing for your inner balance. You can be restored by walking with bare feet along the shoreline or the sand, and it’s important that you have the right supportive shoes for your total equilibrium, when your shoes don’t fit in the right way you can become intensely irritable and be unsure of why. The water is good for your spirit, its like a baptism and revival, swim or listen to the ocean sounds whenever you can, sleep when you can, sleep when you are tired or you begin to lose a sense of what is real emotionally
