Why I Do Spellwork

Why I Do Spellwork

I am not new to the world of magick and have been practicing spellcasting for nearly 6 years now, refining my skills in rituals and spellcasting. I never could be religious about my beliefs although I have tried in the past and found that I use magick best as a mental strategy to manage feelings of depression, anxiety, and stress.

Everyone is different when it comes to their reasons to begin their spiritual journey into witchcraft and although it sounds like a religion it can be as religious as it can be nonreligious. I tend to practice on the nonreligious side. Sure I like hearing the stories that come with deities, Gods, Goddesses, etc. I find them to be something quite interesting and all have morals. One could always learn from tales of old. Their symbolism means a lot to me when it comes to spell crafting and although I may not worship them, I see them as spiritual guides. 

I am no master at the craft, I am always learning more each day I study. Each day I learn something new about myself and what materials and symbols mean for my spells. I enjoy learning. I feel like the mind becomes more and more aware with the knowledge that fills it. 

I use my studies not only for me but I find it useful to help others who ask for it. I always focus on the positive outlook of spellwork, I work to achieve happiness, luck, protection, etc. If someone came to me for a protective spell or charm I would put my little heart and soul into it to help them. I sometimes think that I worry too much for others and I care too deeply (that’s usually what gets me hurt), but the feeling of helping others is too good for me to stop.

Overall, spellwork and rituals really help influence the energy around me. Whether it is to help my mental state or to help protect my home from negative forces. Spellworking is a gift and a spiritual guide to the unknown and to understand better yourself and the others around you.

I've recently just found my love for the colour gold. I've always loved rose gold but I feel like gold in general has made it onto my list of jewelry I would wear and things I would own. I always hated the colour gold until I was given a gold ring by my now fiancé <3 I think that's what influenced the change of heart

Hi, I hope you are having a good day. I desired to receive a free reading, and my question is if we are going to sell our family home at September? Thanks.

Good Day! I hope you are doing well!

For your reading today I will be using my Modern Spellcaster's Tarot deck [by Melanie Marquis and Illustrated by Scott Murphy] and I will be reading the cards faced upright.

As I was shuffling, an extra card popped right out of my hands! This means there is definitely something the cards are trying to tell you!

The Past (Card on Left) - For your past I pulled card 3 of the major arcana; the Goddess. This house you are trying to sell within the next few months has held on to many memories even before you owned it. The compassion and family love that is hidden in the walls over so many years is overwhelming and can be felt strongly by anyone who enters. In the time you lived there the people inside have matured and grown spiritually and physically.

The Present (Card in Middle) - The present is represented by yet another major arcana, card number 7; The Chariot. This card is interpreted by your inspiration to move to a new place. A new home, maybe in a much different place than what you are used to or it could be a small step to a bigger living space. Or you could have scooped up an opportunity that you made the decision for the good of yourself, your spouse, or your family.

The Future (Card on Right) - For your future I pulled King of Cups from the minor arcana. My interpretation of this card is that in the future someone with a great love of family will buy and move to your house. A father who truly cares for his spouse and children or will soon be a father and needed a place to grow his family.

EXTRA (Card in Bottom) - When cards pop from a tarot readers hands they must be included in the reading and should not be ignored for it may represent great or bad news. In this case your future from this extra card holds much greatness. The card that popped from my hand is from the major arcana, number 19; Sun. This card represents extremely good luck and all your wishes for this situation to come true. The sun represents the bright light we can all share with the world and the warmth and comfort that we share for others. I believe that this card is telling you that it will be very possible that you may sell your house by September.

Your reading looks very promising! You could sell it by September or even before then if you are lucky! Unfortunately the cards and myself have no knowing when you will actually sell your house. The cards represent a peek into what could be and offers advice to keep you on a path that may lead to an abundant future. I really hope this reading helps you gain some insight. I had a little bit of trouble with this one but blessed are the cards and what they try to tell me.

Have a wonderful day!

Yesterday was my first day finally getting back on track with my new routine and I plan on keeping up with this new routine. It isn't as daunting as I thought it would be and seems like a lot but putting in the right amount of effort and taking necessary breaks will improve my perspective on life as a whole.

With my cold finally gone and with eating the right amount of calories and proteins I can say that my workout last night was a success and I am back to feeling great! I just have to keep at it.

Today's Tarot Card:

(Pulled from my Fairy deck illustrated by Howard David Johnson) 4 of Summer. This card reads: 'Being distracted and failing to see magical opportunity. Taking someone or something for granted. Discontent with life.' At first I read this card as something I'm doing in my new routine is not substantial to my spiritual development but I think I can read it as that I'm not taking the right opportunities that I'm given to get in my daily practice such as meditation, study, anything to do with magick that I'm missing out on and should be improving upon. Never would I go out of my way to burn myself out but anything to help with my spiritual and mental state throughout the day is recommended.

Today is a cold day in my small city of Colorado although it is technically supposed to be Spring now. Colorado really do be bipolar with the weather (it was 80 degrees just the other day). I feel blessed by the cold weather, it reminds me to take care of myself by staying inside when I am not doing well.

Recently I have been fighting to get through a cold that hit me like a truck. I have been working towards getting healthier and fit. I don't know if maybe my body just can't handle the newer, healthier food and the amount of exercise I am trying to achieve but it seems like every time I attempt to push myself and have a really heavy workout I seem to wake up the next day feeling absolutely awful. This is the second time I've had a cold this month and both have started up right after a hearty night of working out at the gym.

On Monday I was able to sleep throughout the day to get my strength back and I'm starting to feel better today. I don't know, maybe I'm dumb, but I'm going to the gym once more tonight to see what happens. I won't do a lot but just to have a little more exercise in the day to get me back on my feet. If I wake up in the morning with another sore throat then I know there's something really funky going on with me.

Today's Tarot Card:

I used my Fairy Deck illustrated by Howard David Johnson and pulled 3 of Summer. The card features three fairies dancing and having a good time in a stream with bushes of red flowers and summer trees surrounding them. The card reads: 'News worth celebrating! Announcements such as weddings, graduations, or births. Friends you cherish.' So maybe my worrying about my health is all in vain or there may be simple answers to my ailments that I may be overlooking. Hope all will go well.

Personal Updates and More

I am going to be really honest and say that I didn't think I would ever get over 100 followers! Thank you all so much for following! It really means a lot to me especially with what I have been going through for the past few months. You are all super fun and I love being able to feel welcome in such a compassionate community of witches and solitary practitioners alike. The energies that I feel when I'm here make me so inspired and motivated to keep learning more in all areas of magick, self care practices, and meditation. I admit I still have a long journey ahead of me but it's all going to make sense in the end.

A few updates: I didn't know that I would get so many requests for my free 3-card tarot readings! It's so wonderful! I'm a little backed up and have to put aside some time after work to complete them one at a time. I use a large amount of energy focusing on these readings and like to keep things detailed and worth while. I know that this process is very time consuming, but I love trying my best to read and interpret the cards to the best of my ability and I feel like the questioner deserves a legitimate response.

I also may be starting a new job soon! Somewhere where I won't be so stressed out and can finally be happy doing what I love doing. The hours won't be so hard on me either.

Moving has been quite a pain in such a short amount of time and I think the main thing I'm having trouble with getting past is finding where everything can go and try not to get bit by any spiders that may now be lurking around my boxes... I tried reaching for some face toner after washing my face and there was a giant, hairy spider hiding in the corner of my bathroom drawer... Not something I wanted to go to bed to...

Anyway, that's really all for now! Once again, if any of you are waiting on a tarot reading please be patient! The spirits and the cards will reveal what they want to reveal and sometimes it takes me quite a while to interpret them decently. Again, if you want a tarot reading please be very specific about your situation and share with me some personal attributes like your star signs and elementals. It's hard for me to get a read specifically for you if you just ask a question. This is the internet and unfortunately I have no way of really speaking face to face to get to know any of you. Thank you so much for your guys' time!

Thank you all you beautiful creatures on here!
