need herbs. where to find the best herbs???
life is so good when you enjoy rain and snow and sunshine and starlight and wind and mornings and twilights and spring and autumn. to pay attention to weather and natural phenomena is to hack the days of the year into bringing you many gifts, predictable, perhaps, yet no less delightful
a perfect vibe year round imo

Pagan pro-tips
Having been pagan and polytheistic for about 7 years, I can attest to these tips’ efficiency.
Pinterest is your best friend when it comes to devotional art
But don’t ever trust a single line of information on there.
Casually call out or whisper a deity’s name when something makes you think of them, so you can invite them to witness it!
If someone asks too many questions and you don’t feel like “coming-out” as pagan, tell them you’re ~more spiritual than religious~ and they’ll act like they get it.
Write your own prayers who tf cares
Playlists playlists playlists
I’m serious, even the simplest stuff people would label as “aesthetic” works well when you’re on a busy schedule but you want to stay casually connected to your faith.
Sure, paganism is deeply personal, but are there other people you could learn from? People you could help? Listening + sharing = community building!

so you're a bit confused about the different phases of the moon or how and what they do or you're just too lazy to actively hunt down the info and put it in your grimoire. No worries, your witch dad is here to help you :)
New Moon:
new moon, happens every month, start of a new lunar cycle.
cannot be seen, sun behind moon-lighting side faced away from the earth.
best for: new beginnings, setting intentions for the month, best place to make plans and decide what to do.
Waxing Moon:
seen as crescent in the sky, illuminated on right-hand side as sun slowly starts to move from behind the moon. first sign that energy is building and in a few days the moon will be at full power
best for: working on self-confidence/compassion/self-assurance. put plans into place to reach goals. build yourself up
First Quarter:
can see a clear half-moon in the sky. at half power. sun is side by side with moon
best for: reflection, taking a pause, revel in what you have been working on and celebrate achievements. think about how u want to celebrate full moon, get ready for serious action.
Waxing Gibbous:
slither of dark moon left unseen. one step away from full power
best for: one phase away from full, hone in on intentions/goals/actions.
make sure you are paying attention to details and staying mindful of what is externally and internally happening
Full Moon:
Big boy moon. Full power. can tap into her energy to help gain insight or to 💫manifest💫. most powerful time of the moon
best for: manifestations, adding more power to your intentions. good for rituals/spells. great time for releasing or banishing rituals, manifestations spells and meditation. good for charging and cleansing. Moon water
Waning Gibbous:
winding down of moons power. sun is moving away and taking its light with it.
best for: turn inwards and evaluate what has happened over last few days. think about full moon ritual/meditation and readjust your intentions goals for the rest of the month
Third Quater:
illuminated on the left side. back to half power and is fading.
best for: let go of what is holding you back, let go of any negativity in your life. Examples: self-limiting beliefs, people who aren’t great for you or your life, fear and basically anything that isn’t serving you or letting you progress in your life. Cleanse yourself and home.
Waning Moon:
power of moon is nearly over. small crescent left in night’s sky. nearly time for new moon and new beginnings.
best for: take a deep breath and surrender to whatever happened and what is beyond your power. don't beat yourself up if you didn't complete any of your goals. dust yourself off and pick yourself up and get ready for a new cycle. Remember to be kind and compassionate to yourself.
Beginner Witch Tip: Remember The Five W’s!
IE, Who, What, When, Where, and Why. Whenever you’re doing research, keep these in mind! For example, let’s say you read a statement like “[Goddess Name] is associated with love.” You’d want to ask yourself questions like: Who associated this goddess with love? Which culture(s) did this? What kind of love did they associate this goddess with? Are we talking sweet, cuddly, romantic love, or burning flames of rip-roarin’ passion kind of love? Or something else? When did people associate this goddess with love? Was she always associated with love or was it an attribute she acquired later on? Or was this association held early on but dropped later? Where did people associate this goddess with love? Did this association vary between regions? Why did people perceive this goddess this way? What values, mores, and lived experiences influenced their perceptions? Or for another example, let’s say you’re reading a witchcraft book. You might ask questions like: Who wrote this book? Do they have any scholarly credentials? What’s their cultural background? And who is this book marketed toward? What kind of politics and worldview does this book advocate? What conclusions does it lead you toward? When was this book written? Is it perhaps relying on out-of-date scholarship or now-discredited ideas? Where did the author come from? How might their environment have affected their worldview? Why did the author write the book? What were their motivations? I mean, the book probably says that they want to enlighten and empower you, but is that really the goal here? Or was the author just looking to make a buck, or were they trying to push some sketchy agendas? Remember: the more detailed answers you can find, the better! For example, “this goddess was petitioned for relationships in the 8th century BCE” is better than “this goddess was worshiped in ancient times.” And “this author was born in Paris in 1581″ is better than “this author was born in Renaissance Europe.” Of course you won’t always be able to find detailed answers, but you should always be looking!
Witchcraft: Warding
Warding is the method of casting a shield or barrier to defend and protect a space, person, portal, or item or to deflect potential negative energies and dangers. This is a remarkably important intention to consider and practice.

Personal:
Writing or tracing protective sigils, runes, or symbols on oneself. Magickal topicals, salves, tinctures, lotions, and diluted essential oils. Enchanting something you can wear such as clothing, or jewelry. Enchanting & carrying item that is symbolic & represents you or intent. Casting a bathing or shower ritual; running water is considered very sacred and will protect as well as cleanse your soul of other energies.
Spatial:
Using smoke like an incent, bundle, or blend around your residence. Growing, hanging, or burning protective or plants throughout your space. Enchanting your crystals, salts, herbs, potions with defensive wards. Sealing mirrors, covering them or inscribing them with sigils or symbols.
