My altar to Hades and Persephone <3

It's not much but I worked hard on it. I also prayed to Hades for the first time in a while. I'm so happy that I'm finally able to worship him and Persephone in peace <3

The shot glass is water mixed with mint oil, the little square is mint gum (both for Hades), and there is a pine cone, rock, and coins in the center for Hades and Persephone. The bottle is an old Crown Royal bottle I filled with water for my next planned libation.

Can't afford wine so water's the next best thing.

The tarot cards are just representative of the relationship between Hades and Persephone, and the Death card is representative of endings/beginnings (end of summer, beginning of fall) also the domain that they rule together.

16 Ways to Connect with the Gods when you don't have an Altar

So I'm currently away from home for 10 days (pet/house sitting) and I don't have an altar space with me. I have my tarot deck and that's it. I decided to write this list incase it might help someone else who is away from home or is just in the pagan closet. Enjoy!

Read your Deity's myths or listen to people read myths on youtube

Sit outside and just think about them

Set your phone background to something that reminds you of them

Wear their colours or symbols

Make or listen to a playlist dedicated to your Deity/Deities

Do a digital offering on tumblr or another site

Just talk to them about your day

Write some poetry for them. Anything can be poetry, it doesn't have to be good

Scroll through their tags on social media

If you have coloured shoelaces wear their corresponding colours on your shoes!! (I can't believe i didn't think about this earlier)

Do your make up to honour them

Talk about them in a (dedicated witchy/pagan) discord server

Do something nice for someone. I know it's cheesy but it's cliche for a reason. For me it definitely makes me feel closer to my Gods

Draw/make art of them or one of their symbols

Youtube ambiance videos are great! If your Deity has an association with fire, water, birds, communal spaces or music there are heaps of videos on Youtube that you can play. Think coffee shop ambiance (communal space), waterfall/rain/water ambiance, nature/bird chirping ambiance, fire place ambiance, studying at the library ambiance, etc. endless possibilities

Draw their sigils/symbols on your face with skin care

I hope this helps!! Feel free to add any other tips. I tried to keep these relatively accessible for everyone.

Pshh, hey. If you are in a budget or if you have to hide your practice, I have some witchy tips for you.

• You don’t need to have an altar. But if you want to, creating an altar on a wooden box is great; you can collect stuff to put in there and you can hide it under your bed.

• You don’t need crystals. Common rocks can be energised to act with a certain intention and they work just as well. You can also associate the place you got the stone/rock from with an intention, such as: a rock from a river or sea can be used for cleansing, purifying, taking energies away from you. A stone found at the property of a hospital can be used for health spells. These are vague examples, so I might make a list later on of all kinds of things you can do with mineral founding.

• Energised water is a great offering to most entities. Water holds memory and it’s easy to energise it with a certain intention if you concentrate.

• You don’t actually need candles. For many deities, an object that remembers you of them works as a taglock, an identification of the deity you’re worshipping. Besides, many spells do not need candles to work, such as: ritual baths, petitions, etc.

Have fun, and remember that your practice isn’t meant to look the same as other practitioners’. We are supposed to do things our own way, as long as it doesn’t harm anyone or anything.

thrift stores have probably been more beneficial for finding items for my practice then any metaphysical shop and with a lot less cultural appropriation

the houseware section at my favorite thrift store had basically a whole altar that you could have bought for less than 15 dollars. I could see thrift stores working especially well for you if you practice Christian witchcraft or folk Catholicism, because there's no shortage of Christian imagery in small statues and wall art. I've bought literal bags of candles at thrift stores for just a few bucks, and the selection of items like beads, candle holders, jars and trays is something you're never going to find that reasonably priced anywhere else. not to mention the scarves! nearly my entire collection of veils (about a dozen scarves and a dozen bandanas) was thrifted. my advice to anyone starting off in their craft who wants to use common items like spoons and jars in their practice is to find them at thrift stores. obviously, always cleanse the hell out of them. there's gonna be all sorts of unwanted energy in and around them that you're not gonna wanna fuck with, but personally I also love the strong energy coming off a once loved, no longer needed item. thrift stores and charity shops are amazing ways to find new and interesting items to involve in your craft.

Low budget/Discreet cleansing

Use bubbles to cleanse your space. As they pop, they clean and cleanse as they float, and release positive energy into the air when they burst. Blow the bubbles in a clockwise circle to invite the energy into your space, or blow the bubbles in each corner of the room.

Different scents of soap can also be used for different intentions! (Flowers=growth, apples=hardiness/fertility, etc)

Enjoy!!!!

9 ways to use Vanilla a basic kitchen ingredient

Warms, precious and sweet-smelling, vanilla makes a great addition to magic spells. Whether you have it in who form, essential oil or as an extract, here are some great ways to use vanilla in spells and magic. Facebook49Tweet0Pin9 Looking for ways to use vanilla in spells and magic? Whether you have some precious vanilla essential oil, a whole bean or just a store-bought bottle of extract, this one-of-a-kind spell ingredient vibes with witchy energy.

Check out these clever ways to incorporate it into your magical practice.

Love Spells Vanilla is a classic love spell ingredient, especially when combined with rose oil or cinnamon. Use the whole bean in a sachet for love or combine it with a few drops of rose oil and dilute it in a neutral-smelling natural oil for a simple love potion.

As a Hearth Warmer The warm, beautiful smell of vanilla knocks the chill off of a recently vacant house.

If you just moved into a new space or are trying to bring a place to life after a period of stagnancy, all a few drops of vanilla essential oil to an oil burner or diffuser during the waxing moon for several nights in a row.

To Warm Cold Hearts Generally, it’s best to steer clear of cold relationships.

But, if you absolutely must deal with someone who is not especially warm, vanilla acts as a kind of heart warmer to ease tension in relationships.

Anoint your heart center with vanilla oil when you have to deal with a relationship that is cold to make warmth and compassion spread from you like a contagion.

The Kitchen Witch’s Best Baking Friend Vanilla is a common inclusion in baking recipes for a reason—it tastes amazing!!

But for the kitchen witch, there is the added layer of magical meaning.

Use vanilla in love spell recipes for romance on date night.

Try it in these love spell cookies or this recipe for love spell cake for a delicious way to make something magical out of dessert for two.

In Ritual Baths Are you one of those witches who likes to throw your entire magical cabinet into a ritual bath?

Add a few drops of vanilla essential oil (or even a splash of vanilla extract) to this Aphrodite Attaction Bath for a sweet-smelling botanical blast of sacred beauty vibes.

During Imbolc Vanilla is common pantry item, making it a staple magical item in the winter.

Incorporate vanilla incense or oil into your winter moon or Imbolc ritual to “warm up” your soul from the inside out.

Try this Imbolc White Magic Creme Brulee for a magical treat during the coldest time of the year.

Long Term Goals The bean of this plant (where most of its potency is stored) takes a whopping 9 months to ripen.

This “slow-burning” energy makes it a great addition to spells that require fortitude and persistance.

Use the whole bean as an amulet to keep yourself on track when endurance is crucial.

Cultivating Value The vanilla bean is one of the highest-value botanicals available on the international market (second only to saffron).

Use vanilla in spells to cultivate a higher-value life. A life where your time is better spent doing the things you love. Or in which you are using your talents to your best advantage. Or where you are surrounded by people who see your intrinsic worth.

However you define value, vanilla empowers spells for attracting precious things into your life.

Sweeten bitterness. Use this botanical in spells to dispel bitterness.

This spell component wards off petty attitudes and steers personal interactions in the direction of warmth and positive cooperation.

budget/broom closet witch tip!

if there are certain herbs you're having a hard time finding at a regular grocery store (such as lavender, lemonbalm, chamomile, etc), or if you don't have access to bulk stores/buying herbs online/etc, use tea bags! oftentimes tea blends you find at normal grocery stores will contain those hard-to-find herbs. simply cut up the tea bags and voila, you have your herbs! of course, it doesn't hurt to drink the tea, use them for tea baths, or even use them as dream sachets too!

I made my first money bowl today! 💚

On the bottom of the dish I drew sigil for luck and money then covered it with a mixture of rice, salt, cinnamon, eggshell, and peppermint.

I then scattered coins I had laying about along with pyrite, tigers eye, citrine, serpentine, quartz, some rose quartz chips and a fake sapphire from my friend.

In addition I added a "lucky cat" plush and a note with my intentions written on it tied with a green ribbon.

I dressed the vanilla candle in the middle with peppermint oil, dried peppermint, cinnamon, and eggshell.

I know it looks a bit ugly but it had a lot of care put into it 💚
