Combining the Elements: Water
Elemental magic sometimes requires us to marry two elements into one to get our desired results, which can be a bit baffling at times. This short guide is to help with some suggestions of elemental combinations you can use to combine the power of two, sometimes opposite, elemental energies into harmony. There are likely many other combinations, these are just some of my personal suggestions - but other combos exist!
Tumblr media
Water and Fire: steam, vapor
Water and Earth: clay, mud, roots, wood
Water and Air: bubbles, fog, clouds, storms
Water and Light: rainbows/colors, mist, reflections
Water and Shadow: ink, paint
Water and Sound: water drops, rain, rain sticks, waves
Water and Frost: ice, snow
Water and Moon: moon water, dew droplets
Water and Sun: foliage/flowers, fruit

"How does one practice as a sea witch?": An open dialogue
Hello! Something I've been thinking about today is, what does it mean to be a sea witch? Namely, what does one's practice look like as a sea witch?
🐚 What tool(s), ingredient(s), and/or magical actions does a sea witch use in spells?
🐠 What deity(ies), if any, does a sea witch use in their practice?
🫧 Do their visualization(s) and meditations involve sounds of the ocean, music that invokes imagery of the sea, viewing pictures or videos of the ocean, holding seashells or other items collected from previous beach visits?
🐡 Do sea witches invoke just the powers of the sea in their craft, or any body(ies) of water?
💧 Does one look to just the ocean for one's power, or things related to the ocean like sea creatures, seaweed, etc.?
These are the questions that inspired this post! I'd love to hear from other sea witches what their practices look like. If you're a sea witch, feel free to share however much or however little of your sea witchcraft you'd like. 💙
To ease us into things, I'll start with my own craft:
🌊 Whenever I'm feeling decalibrated, or if I know a full moon is coming up, I go to the beach! I'm lucky to live close by, so I make the trip whenever I can. Nothing has made me feel more powerful as a with than dancing under the full moon light on the beach and hearing the waves crash fervently onto the shore.
🌊 I collect items from the beach whenever I can - mainly seashells, driftwood, and sand. I thank the ocean for whatever I collect, and I make sure to pick up any trash I see while I'm collecting as a way of giving back!
🌊 When gathering energy, I'll imagine I'm underwater sitting on the sea floor, and I have a small bubble in my hands. As I chant, I imagine the bubble growing bigger until there's enough energy inside it to envelope me inside it.
🌊 I invoke the power of the sea (and water in general) when casting spells.
🌊 I write runes or sigils on seashells.
🌊 I keep seashells and a vial of sand on my altar. The seashell is nice to hold during meditations.
🌊 I use sand in my cauldron when I'm burning incense or spell ingredients.
🌊 I have a mermaid-themed tarot deck! I connected with it right away & it has yet to steer me wrong in any reading.
🌊 I made a playlist on Spotify with songs that remind me of the water! Some songs contain bubbles, ocean waves, and sea life sound effects, which is so so so useful when I'm meditating.
I'm excited to hear from my fellow sea witches what they do in their practices! And I hope this post helps anyone tinkering with the idea of sea witchcraft! 😊

Bedridden Water-Witchcraft Ideas:
Tumblr media
1. Meditate with a real shell, just hold it and examine it until you go into a trance if you want! Connect to the water spirits that are still attached to the shell. I like a good scallop shell but any shell will do
2. Drink lots of water. Make sure you have a good supply of water close enough to your bed to where you only have to sit up to drink it (charge it with whatever intent you wish).
3. Do scrying with a sealed clear glass jar of water. It can even have some sand swirling around in it if that helps you scry.
4. Mist yourself with rain water you’ve collected and put into a spray bottle. You can even add a drop of lavender or lemon essential oil to spice it up!
5. Watch videos of different bodies of water on your device. This is super easy to do from bed and it’s ok if you fall asleep!
6. Speaking of falling asleep, you can sleep with a Pearl bracelet or a crystal that corresponds to the water element under your pillow, so even when you snooze you connect to water.
7. Watch documentaries of different aquatic creatures in their natural habitats. (I avoid ocean ones due to my fear of sharks but that’s just a personal preference).
8. Sleep under a blue blanket for color magic!
9. Lucid dream of you can! You can visit a water source that way from your very own bed!
10. Pray to a water god or goddess or spirit of your choosing if that fits your practice.

Let’s talk about working with the Water Element; divination, magical waters, workings and cultivating a relationship with it and its spirits.
🎶Sharing my experiences and thoughts, don’t rely on just this make your own experiences and thoughts.🎶
Tumblr media
How do I grow my relationship with Water itself?
Begin opening yourself up to it more and incorporating it into your daily life. When I began building my relationship with it this is what I did:
To be done over a months period
Washed my hands & face with cold water when waking up and letting them air dry as much as possible.
Brushing out my hair and braiding it, picturing my hair flowing like a river with every movement of my fingers.
Beginning my day by intentionally drinking a glass of water, sitting down to really appreciate it and how it aides your body. I like cold water because you can easier feel it flow through you, I also like charging it beforehand.
Visit as many water sources as possible during this period. I am lucky enough to live by the pacific ocean and I would go and swim in it everyday to cultivate my relationship. However, if that is inaccessible for you there’s options such as sitting by a public pool, taking a bath, standing in the rain, eating your lunch by a river, etc.
While you’re spending time with water just talk to it. Tell it stories, sing it songs, ask it questions, water is living and it longs for a connection.
Record your progress throughout the month either in written journal entries, scrapbooking, or digital trackers. Just have a way for you to look back at how you’ve changed during this period.

What can I benefit from working with water?
Regardless on where you are from, what path of life you are following or anything else we are connected by our need for water. It is not only our connection to other humans but our connection to the natural world as well. It makes up 3/4 of our planet and 60% of your body. You can get a better understanding of yourself just by going back to that fundamental need to sustain yourself with water as a life-force. The element itself is well known to be a very introspective force and most spirits representing or associated are similar (spg). When you are inviting it into your home you are inviting that connection and energy in too.
Tumblr media
Water takes life without discrimination, just as it gives life. Working within that provides a confidence and at least in my experience a sense of balance within ones self. If you are feeling like you are being tossed by the path of life, as if you are a lone ship at a storming sea, this might be your sign to stop fighting the current and start moving with it. If you can make the waves move at your asking then what is there to stop you.
𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 𓆝 𓆟𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 𓆝 𓆟𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 𓆝
Hydromancy
hy·dro·man·cy /ˈhīdrəˌmansē/
noun
divination by means of signs derived from the appearance of water and its movement.
Some argue this is the first form of scrying Hydromancy is a very useful tool. It can be done with natural bodies of water, or things like tubs, cups and bowls. It can be frustrating to begin so this is how I would begin if I were you: (works better with an established connection to water)
Tumblr media
Go somewhere quiet and still, I prefer outside at night but do what is safe and comfortable for you.
Prepare your space and yourself however you normally would set the tone for a divination reading. Some choose to say a blessing prayer, drink a divination tea blend, or anoint themselves with particular salve or oil. I will usually ritually prepare myself (let me know if you want me to go more into this).
In a shallow dark colored bowl (or scrying bowl), pour your preferred water of choice. I usually go with waning moon water.
Relax and begin to gaze into the water. Let yourself open up to messages. Sometimes it comes as scenes of images, or a shape or even words that can come through.
Write down anything you receive to interpret later on.
If you are struggling try this ritual but use the light of a candle or the moon to interpret those shapes. Or meditate with the bowl and pour it out onto the ground and scry the shape it leaves behind.

"Drain Them" Sinking Spell
Tumblr media
a spell to keep someone drained mentally and busy with things stressing them out rather than dealing with you. spell was originally intended for helping out a friend with someone negative in their life
⚓ gather: glass/metal bottle, taglock, black origami paper or striped origami paper, bits of a mouse's skull (ethically sourced. my mouse skull was from an owl pellet i dissected) ⚓ note: if you don't have striped paper, use black paper. if you don't have black paper, use striped paper
⚓ take a metal or glass bottle and fill it with water
⚓ use black and striped paper and fold it into a butterfly. butterflies themselves represent creativity, transformation, hope, faith and rebirth. in origami, butterflies can also represent moving on from something while striped paper can represent discouragement or imprisonment and black paper can either symbolize protection or oppression depending on the intent
⚓ take apart the butterfly and place mouse skull pieces in the middle of the paper and refold it a butterfly. skulls in death witchcraft represent the mind, thoughts and can even connect you to animal it originally came from
⚓ place butterfly in the bottle and seal with the intent to keep the intended target drained mentally and for that to persistently follow them. shake bottle if necessary if spell feels to be wearing off or energy feels dull

You know what I like about tea? It’s a combination of the four elements. 
The tea leaves make up the earth, the foundation, the water that creates the body, the heat and flame that boils the water in order to bring out the properties of the tea leaves, and the delicate, silvery wisps that rise and disappear as we blow on the finished drink to cool it enough to sip. 
It’s the perfect blend of the elements, all converging in one place to create a beverage that can be used in so many different ways, whether it’s just to enjoy while doing some paper work or reading a book, using it as an offering to a deity or Mother Earth, or stirring in a spell or enchantment as you add honey or lemon. 
And the number of different types and ways you can make tea are nearly limitless! If you’ve got a filter you can use purified rain water or moon water. You can make your won medicinal tea with herbs, or use the flowers you foraged from the great greenwood and vast moor, or harvested from your garden. 
It’s truly the witch’s beverage, no matter the path or practice you choose.

I’m collecting rainwater for reasons. Can some one tell me if it has to come directly from the sky or if it can hit a metal overhanging. I would leave a bowl on the ground but if you do that in an apartment complex some one will steal your bowl.

Spiritual showers
Turning your shower into a more spiritual experience can be a wonderful way to start or end your day with mindfulness and tranquility.
Here are some ways to make your shower more spiritual:
1. Set an intention: Before stepping into the shower, set a positive intention for your experience. This could be to wash away stress, find clarity, or simply be present in the moment.
2. Use aromatherapy: Incorporate essential oils or scented shower products with calming or spiritually uplifting scents, such as lavender, eucalyptus, or frankincense.
3. Practice mindfulness: Focus on the sensations of the water and the sound of it falling. Be fully present in the moment, letting go of distractions and worries.
4. Meditate: Consider using your shower time for a short meditation. Close your eyes, breathe deeply, and clear your mind as you feel the water cleanse your body and spirit.
5. Visualisation: Visualize the water washing away negative energy or stress, leaving you refreshed and renewed.
6. Affirmations: Recite positive affirmations or mantras while in the shower to promote a sense of inner peace and self-empowerment.
7. Gratitude: Express gratitude for the water, which is essential for life, and for the cleansing and rejuvenating effects of your shower.
8. Gentle movement: Incorporate gentle stretches or movements to promote physical and spiritual well-being while the water flows over you.
9. Sacred symbols: Consider placing meaningful symbols or objects in your bathroom to create a sacred atmosphere.
10. Music or chanting: Play soothing music or chant softly to enhance the spiritual ambiance and promote relaxation.
Remember that the key is to create a personalized experience that resonates with your spiritual beliefs and intentions.
Experiment with these suggestions to find what works best for you and adds a spiritual dimension to your shower routine.
