Witch things to add in your room, poor person edition

Fuck it Most of witchcraft people tell you to buy shit. So here's some stuff u can do for free

grab some sticks from the ground, bind them together in a shape you like, add intent (usually protection), hang it up

make a flower crown, add protection intent, dry it out, hang it up. protection spell and real ward. regularly recharge intent.

dry plants, set warding intent, hang them up.

crushed eggshells on your window sill to prevent bad energy.

wear a bandana or veil somewhere on your body, sometimes i use mine as belts, to protect from bad vibes.

paint your nails in the color meaning you want. mine are pink for self attraction rn

when you light up a candle always ask if theres a spirit or entity there, pyromancy skills can be learned through google, tumblr, and tiktok.

Regularly clean and rearrange your altar if you can't practice everyday, this keeos the space clean and shows entities around that even if ur not active, you're still a witch

A cup of water can be an offering to anyone, imagine being an entity and you can't have water at all for centuries??

If you have glasses, draw a sigil on them while you clean them (i usually wash mine with soap and water to make it extra clean ((and dry with paper towels)))

Give your wall art jobs. Sure they can be decorative, or they can be extra eyes to watch you while you sleep to make sure no one messes with you. (Ive had so much wall art fall in the middle of the night and turns out smth was trying to get in my room...)

If you have black-out/thick curtains, let the sun in!!! I keep them tied during the day so i can use natural light and ease up my electricity bill

Change ur bedsheets semi regularly, it doesn't need to be every week, but keep in mind bedbugs and other entities can get trapped there... or even try to get there to make your sleep unrestful.

If your room is a bio-hazard, at least make pathways so you can walk without injuring yourself.

Thats all i have for now <3 blessed be and fuck capitalism

Tarot: Understanding Your Deck

Connect With Your Deck The best way to connect with your deck is to sleep with it either beside you, or under your pillow. This will allow your energies to get used to each other. If possible, you should take your tarot deck around with you.

Visual Bonding This may be difficult for some, as it can be time consuming, but it can be beneficial to sit with each card, take note of what the symbols within the card represent. This can further promote a bond between you and your deck.

Interview Spreads A great way to really understand the personality of your deck is to ask your deck questions. Questions can include; What is your favourite card? What card do you feel represents you/me best?. I personally feel like one of the best questions to ask is 'Do you want me to count fallen cards into the reading?' As many tarot readers do feel like if a card falls out the deck, it counts to the reading where as others don't, I believe it depends on the personality of the specific deck you're working with.

Meditation Sitting with the deck and allowing yourself to meditate with it can be a really important part of tarot reading as it allows you to feel more secure in your relationship with the deck. It can open up your intuition with the deck and improve your relationship.

Readings Tip - Watch out for patterns within your readings! Reoccurring cards, numbers and symbols may be trying to reach out to you!

I’ll keep this post updated with more prompts when I find them

[forestulips]

I used to think that being a witch was making it an every day thing, with intense memorization and studying all at once... It isn't like that though, witch craft in it's core is about intention and magic and simply seeing the world around you can be just as good as going out of the way to spend money.

Go hiking. Fake your death. Become one with the forest. Elevate to forest god. The simple things.
