Zapdos’s Thunderstorm Power Storage Spell (Pokemon Inspired)

“Zapdos is a legendary bird Pokémon that has the ability to control electricity. It usually lives in thunderclouds. The Pokémon gains power if it is stricken by lightning bolts.” -Pokedex Entry

A storm spell to cast during a thunderstorm to gain power from it and store it into a rock to use for later.

You Will Need:

⚡ A rock, marble or clear quartz crystal ⚡ Thunderstorm or a video of a raging storm

Steps:

⚡ Cleanse yourself, your space and the rock you will be working with

⚡ Open your window to let in the smell and winds of the storm, if it is safe you can go outside, though it is generally safer to stay inside

⚡ Hold the stone in your cupped hands and hold them out towards the window and the storm outside

⚡ Feel the power of the air from the storm, smell the rain, and feel the literal electricity in the air. Visualize this energy pulsing like electricity all about and how now your rock is drawing it in light a lightning rod. Focus on this and your intent to store the strength and energies of this storm into your stone.

⚡ Stay like this until you feel that your rock is pulsating with the electrical power

⚡ Tuck it away and safe for the future when you need the empowerment or the energy of a storm for yourself, a spell, enchantment, etc

Witchcraft: Storm Correspondences

Witchy Things To Do on A Rainy Day

One of my favorite ways of calling a storm. Reeds tied into a whisk. I whisk the water while visualizing the kind of storm I want. I also keep a water library that includes water from different storms to help form the right kind of storm.

When I'm done, I use the whisk to flick the water in the air like rain, much like the old broom and bucket folk magic spell. It's better if done outside, I think, but I usually end up doing most of my storm calling inside just due to convenience.

This particular set up was done on a night when I wanted to influence an already existing storm system to get here faster.

Witchy Things To Do on A Rainy Day

Rainbow Water???

Okay, so I realized something today. I always see posts detailing the various correspondences of different types of water. Moon water, sun water, eclipse water, rain water, storm water, snow water, even *dew* water. Water from a lake, a river, an ocean, a stream, a brook. Even water collected from mist.

But y'all know what I haven’t seen?

Rainbow water.

So hold on to your seats yall because I’m about to take ya on a ride.

Rainbow water is something I use quite often in my craft. Why? Because it’s got so many uses! I use it for:

Honestly, I have no idea why I haven’t seen rainbow water being mentioned before. It can’t be because it’s too difficult to collect because, y'all,

You can make your own rainbows. You don’t have to wait for one to show up in the sky.

Observe:

That right there is a bona fide rainbow that i created with nothing but a hose on the mist option and natural sunlight. Get yourself a pretty (or ugly) bottle with a wide mouth and you can very easily make your own rainbow water!

“But wait, Eiolrin, what if I don’t have a hose?”

Nothing to fear. I’ve got your back. You can also collect rainbow water by:

Draw a rainbow. Print out a picture of a picture of a rainbow. This rainbow is in my grimoire in the form of a magic circle (enchantment circle) and i’ve imbued it with the energy of a rainbow. I use this to make rainbow water sometimes.

So go forth and conquer, my lovelies! Be the witch/mage/occultist that uses rainbow water! Spread this around and make sure this is something that becomes a thing because in my opinion, rainbow water is just too useful to be ignored as a valid component in spells and other things.

As a bonus, here’s my rainbow water!

Perfect for iris devotees!! And sun/rainbow witches!!
