POOR MAN’S BATH(NEW MOON)

POOR MAN’S BATH Supermarket/Farmer’s Market BUY FRESH Thyme Basil Rosemary Sage BUY DRIED Cinnamon Sticks Bay Leaves Black Pepper Salt Cumin 2 tablespoons of Olive Oil DOLLAR STORE White Candle Gallon of Water

Everything I listed is very inexpensive. If spend more then $30. You’ve spent to much. Be wise. Shop within your budget. It’s all about the intent.

You’re going to need the largest pot that you can find in your Home. Take all the fresh herbs and rinse them off with cool water and pat dry with a paper towel. You don’t have to use them all but be generous. If you are taking this bath for 3 nights then I suggest you use them all. Then take the olive oil and add it to the pot on high heat. Then add the fresh herbs.Stir for a few minutes and then add the dry herbs(be generous). Continue to stir but don’t burn. Turn fire down if necessary. Then add the whole bottle of water.  Then add the holy water( Take a glass and fill it with cool water from the sink and pray over it).  While stirring constantly think of what you want to get from these baths. Peace of mind, Strength, clarity and focus? Think of all this as you stir. Add another gallon of water(Refill the first one). Let the brew come to a boil. Let it boil to you feel like it’s done. Take off the heat and let cool.

You’re going to have to divide the bath into 3. I personal leave mines right in the pot and just pour 1/3 at a time. But, it’s your choice. Draw a bath as hot as you can bare it. While the water is filling the tub add 1/3 of the brew. With your hand, swirl it around in the water think of what you want to come of the bath. Then, Light the candle and pray to your GOD. Pray for only you. Not your children, family or friends. This bath is about YOU and what you want for yourself. Say Amen and read Psalms 91. Get into the bath. Soak. -Rub the herbs everywhere, face head hair. Then read Psalms 91 again. Say amen. Repeat Soak. Then repeat . Psalms 91. Then before you get out the bath make 3 wishes for YOURSELF. Only you. Between you and GOD. After each wish take the bowl and pour the bath over your head. The bath is done. ***GET OUT OF TUB IMMEDIATELY!*** Pat Dry. Dress in all white. White on your head body and feet(white soaks). TIP: You can lay the towel over the pillow to collect water from your hair.

***SHOWER INSTRUCTIONS**** Add an extra gallon of water and brew for twice as long. Slow and even and stirring… ***Shower first!*** Then place a third of your brew in a huge bowl or bucket. Make sure that some of the herbs is slit between all three 1/3 portions… Standing. Using herbs as your sponge… Start at your face and spread the brew all over your body. All the way down to the soles of your feet. Say Psalms 91 for the second time(First when lighting the candle). Starting at the face and using the herbs… Spread brew all over your body. Back included. I have a small cup or bowl near by to pour slowly down my back to cover it…. Say Psalms for the last time. Take the small cup or bowl and dividing the left over brew by 3…. Pour 3 times over head and hair. Each time saying a wish for yourself. Pat dry… Dress in all white etc…

Stormbornwitch’s Prosperity Spell Bottle

This spell bottle contains my prosperity powder. This powder is ideal for drawing money, prosperity, and success. Just on its own, the powder could be sprinkled onto a burning candle, dusted around your home or workplace or you could even add some to a hot bath!

Prosperity Powder - Grind & Combine:

  • Eggshells for protection, prosperity and good fortune
  • Sage for helping you make wise decisions
  • Bay Leaves for prosperity and success
  • Basil for wealth and success
  • Peppermint for money, prosperity and abundance

Then the powder is poured into a jar or bottle. Attached to the jar/bottle is a bay leaf with the rune Fehu (wealth and prosperity) painted on it in silver paint.

Using knot magic, the bay leaf is attached to the jar/bottle and then a candle is affixed to the top of the jar so that the candle can be lit every time I need a little money to flow into my life. This little spell bottle works really well. I’ve even been asked to make one for my boss at work.

This little spell jar is my own personal recipe for protection! You can light a candle while you make it and make sure to repeat your intent as you layer the ingredients. This simple but effective little jar contains:

Sea Salt

Ground Sage

Rosemary

Bay Leaves

Lavender Essential Oil (you don’t have to use an essential oil, i use it because I don’t have real lavender)

May this jar bring you protection and cleansing.

Yesterday I’ve made a new batch of my Sun oil and I realized that I don’t like the way I used to do it. So I updated it. This is a real good example that your witchcraft is really personal and definitely evolves over the years and months. Please feel free to add or remove any ingredients. I made this new blend bc I have more herb knowledge than I did 1 ½ Years ago and I’ve added all the herbs that made sense for ME. There are many different properties of the herbs, so if you find a herb that makes more sense to you feel free to substitute one of mine with yours ❤️ But I would raccomand doing this when you’re in a good moon or high in energy.

☀️You’ll need☀️ > Cloves { good luck, prosperity, protects from negativity from the outside like gossiping} > Juniper berries {protection and purification} > Bay leafs {cleansing} > Cardamom {inner strength and I just looove the smell} > Rose and/or Lavender {gentle and soothing energy} > Lemon and/or Oranges (Peels or essential oil){Sun energy and association, also used in cleansing rituals or baths} > Citrine (or any other Stone you associate with the Sun) {Sun energy and overall energizing stone} > Optionally an Orange Candle {Sun association}

☀️Procedure☀️ > Cleanse all your ingredients and place them into a container > Say a little blessing or incantation. Mine went like this “This oil contains the energy of thousand suns” and Imagine a sun glowing in your container and after you fell that there’s egough energy you imagine the Sun fading away. > Add your carrier oil and close the lid. Shake thoroughly (Any vegetable oil can be one. Sunflower, Olive and Rapseed oil are the best for this since there aren’t pricy) >Now, if you’re doing this in the evening (like I did bc let’s be honest you don’t always have time to be witchy) put an orange candle in front of the Container and let it burn down (I used an Ikea candle). If you’re doing this during the day let it sit in the sun and don’t let it touch Moonlight on the first day. > After that you can leave it on your windowstill for as long as you wish (I’m going to leave mine for 3-4 weeks, depends how inpatient I get). To drain it you can use a panty hose if you don’t have a cheesecloth like me.

This oil can be used up to 3 Months or longer. Just look out for mold on the bottom (That happened to my old batch)

  • a bell
  • salt
  • dried basil

When to do it?

During a Full Moon night

Method:

Quite simple!

Take the time to meditate and focus on your intent (bringing abundance and prosperity in your life), try to be precise and to visualize your success clearly.

Then add all of the ingredients (cleansed if you prefer) in the bag.For each ingredient, take the time to stay focus on what you want, visualize prosperity energy charging them, imagine yourself reaching abundance.

Finally, close the bag and add the bell to the ribbon.

Now you can carry this little bag with you, or keep it in the main room of your house, to unlock your prosperity and let abundance enter your life.

Or you can decide to take it, smell it and take a few minutes to focus with it every morning and evening. up to you :)

Feather-set’s Protection Satchel to Ward Off Ex-Lovers

This satchel idea was brought to me from a friend’s friend who went through a painful, abusive relationship. They left their harmful partner and wanted to find a way to protect themselves so that they can keep the ex-partner away. 

What it does: this satchel will help protect you from an ex-lover or abusive partner that you’ve decided to break contact with. This helps protect you from toxic people who might otherwise take advantage of or hurt you. 

Before making this satchel: make sure that you’re not going to allow your harmful ex back into your life. Don’t call them, text them, stop them on the street to say hello, etc. Do not allow them to puncture your space by any means. And if they do manage to come up to you, leave as soon as you can. 

What you’ll need:

  • A black satchel 
  • Rose stems with thorns 
  • Sea salt
  • Hematite, onyx, iron, or some black stones
  • Sage, rosemary, bay leaves (or two of these, or all three for maximum protection)
  • An item to represent you (charm, hair, clipped nails, personal trinket, etc)

Casting: You are free to cast the spell however you wish, though I would recommend burning a black candle while you put the items into the satchel, saying the intent of the pouch as you fill it. Chant something like 

This bag is my shield and these items keep it strong All these things protect me from (name)’s wrongs

Everyone’s casting styles are different, so you are free to do your own version of whatever spell you want to accompany this. 

Meditate on the purpose of the satchel. Feel the powers of the herbs and stones protecting and holding the items that represents you; in turn, imagine your psychic shield wrapping around you, protecting you from the harmful person’s presence. 

Wear the satchel on you when you’re out or feel uncomfortable, until you feel safe and secure knowing they will no longer bother you ever again. 

Why I chose these items: I’m very fond of plant/herb magick and crystals, so there’s one. Salt is a very protective mineral that is very commonly used to ward off negative presences. Rosemary, sage, and bay leaves are also protective. Rose thorns are the shield that roses, the symbol of love and frailty. Hematite, onyx, and other dark crystals are protective, especially hematite. Black is a strong colour, and is very defiant and protective.

7 Herbs Known to Help Induce Prophetic Dreams (that don't cost an arm and a leg!)

When we say ’prophetic dreams’, we are talking of dreams that allow us a glimpse into the future. They may be vivid, or perhaps a mere clue amongst a sea of confusing subconscious flashes and imagery. The following herbs amplify and enhance psychic power and induce prophetic dreams:

  • Bay Leaves: place beneath your pillow before you go to sleep.
  • Heliotrope: place the leaves under your pillow before sleeping.
  • Jasmine: burn the dried flowers in an incense burner prior to sleeping.
  • Marigold: scatter the flowers in or around the bed before you go to sleep.
  • Mimosa: fill a bag with the flowers and place under ypur pillow - the colours blue and yellow are often connected to psychic awareness.
  • Mugwort: filling a bag and placing under the pillow or drinking this as a tea are very effective methods when it comes to inducing dreams.
  • Peppermint: fill a bag with the leaves and place it underneath your pillow. You can also drink peppermint tea prior to sleeping.

Felix Felicis -Liquid Luck

A potion to help fate lean in your favor.

Ingredients

A large bowl and a smaller bowl.

Consumable full moon water

One candle

Bay leaves

Rosemary

Sage

Honey

This potion has varying degrees of effectiveness, depending on how far you stray from the directions. Generally, the amount of time and effort put into this potion will be proportional to how much you get out of it.

Method

  1. Prepare your work space however you may like. Cast a circle, charge the surface, call on your gods -anything that you feel is necessary. Feel free to conduct another complimentary ritual before this, using this as the catalyst, or using this alone.*
  2. Place a coin in the center of the large bowl, then the smaller bowl on top of that, and a candle in the smaller bowl. Carve “wealth,” “success,” and “love,” into the candle and anoint with oil (or charge in your favorite way). Light this candle, and make sure it doesn’t run into the bowl.
  3. In the kitchen, bring a cup of full moon water to a boil. NOT rain water. Do not use water that has been left out side, improperly sealed. Once a nice steam is rising, remove the candle from the smaller bowl, and pour the hot water in it’s place.
  4. Take your herbs and place them in the outer ring, between the small bowl and the large bowl. You may also wish to place corresponding crystals, sigils, ect, here. If drinking immediately, drizzle some honey into the water.
  5. When the candle goes out, the potion should be complete. Snuff it out if you’re in a rush. If not using presently, put the water in a jar and keep in a cool, dark place. For best results, drink heated with a teaspoon of honey. Each brew only works for one use, and it is best not to drink this more than once a month, lest it loose its potency. I find rare occasions (in general) tend to supply more power.

* If you really need some luck, something more than just a boost on exams, there’s another crucial part.

Keep a piece of ribbon, rope, or string easily accessible at all times. Keep it with you when your inside, outside, traveling, ect. Whenever something particularly miraculous happens, tie a knot -during the event or immediately after, always in the same location. Upon reaching three knots, you can begin the above potion. At some point during the ceremony, burn the knots with the candle until they unravel. Once the knots have disintegrated, I would recommend drinking the potion as soon as possible.

Lantern Magic

Lanterns have been used as a guide, path markers and a source of light for countless people through out the years!  So that means they have great possibility for magic!  These are a few:

↝ Place rose petals inside of a lantern to draw in love, passion and forgotten memories.

↝ Fill with lavender to attract serenity, peace and intuitive guidance.

↝ Charge up in moonlight and place where desired to fill your space with the power of the moon!

↝ Write the name of someone you know on a slip of paper and place in the lantern to help guide them through dark times and offer hope.

↝ Burn a blue candle in a lantern to help draw in wisdom, knowledge and clarity.

↝ Place a rune or tarot card within the lantern to attract the qualities associated with it into your life.

↝ Use in a curse, place your target’s name (bound) in the lantern so that they will remain lost or confused until you choose to set them free.

↝ Anoint with storm water to draw in a storm.

↝ Burn a white candle inside to help reveal the truth of a situation.

↝ Place a labrodorite stone inside to draw in creativity, inspiration and adventure.

↝ Put bay leaves inside to draw in prosperity.

↝ Use crystal grids around the lantern and it can be the vessel for the focused energy.  A way to keep it stored for a short period of time if you will.

↝ Use as a tool to force a person to see the truth that they have been ignoring or rejecting.

and of course because I’m a dragon witch I have to throw in:

↝ burn a dragons blood incense cone to draw in dragon spirits!

The finished bottle spell for healing for Dan. Who knew making a wax “bead” out of liquid wax and hair would be so fun? (And HARD?)

The first thing I did was make this string of beads.

When tossing around ideas for this stuff with a friend, she mentioned a rosary and decades of beads in relation to…something else, but the idea stuck in the back of my mind. So this isn’t any sort of rosary, rather it’s a visualization of how much time to live my friend should have - 100 beads for 100 years, divided up into decades, starting from a “bead” made of taglock hair & wax from a purpose-bought candle, and ending with a skull bead to represent death. (I feel like I should note that I had extra trouble stringing beads # 76 & #92, so Dan, if you’re reading, watch out for those years? :P ) Underneath the beads in the bottle are: Aventurine - speeds healing Amethyst - calmness, peace Carnelian - dispels depression, health Hematite - health Orange Calcite - protection Clear Quartz x2 - health, boosts other ingredients Dan’s hair Bay Leaves - health, purification Cinnamon Stick pieces - health Garlic Powder - health, protection Rue - health Rose Buds - health Allspice Berries - health Balm of Gilead “tears” - health Rose Hips - health Rowan Berries - protection, health Candied Ginger - health, protection Pine Needles - purification, health Lemon Balm - health Peppermint- health, purification Spearmint - health Stinging Nettles - health, purification Rosemary - protection, health

Ingredient correspondences are a mix of my own thoughts and Cunningham’s encyclopedias. I am amused by some of the things that have healing correspondences - things like ginger, garlic, berries (ie: things that are used medicinally for health benefits!).

Reblogging because I added a ton to the description.

Sending good thoughts!
