Everyday Things I Do For Eros, God Of Love And Sex

Witch tip: When you pick up candles from the dollar store, go for ones that come in sealable containers! Once the candle is used up, you can wash out the glass and use it to store herbs in a neat, decorative way 🌷

Clarice Lispector, from “A Breath of Life”, published posthumously in Brazil in the late 1970s

water witch: way too many jars, running out in the middle of a storm to collect water, carrying a jar everywhere, shower cleansing and grounding rituals

tech witch: embedding sigils in code, stereoscopic light of a phone screen, ambient soundtracks, witchy phone apps, emoji spells, digital grimoires

Motivation / Creativity / Inspiration Low Budget Spell Jar

What you will Need:

🖤 Any Type of Jar, I used small craft jars I purchased from the dollar store!

🖤 Yellow Candle

🖤 Palo Santo *

🖤 Lavender

🖤 Pink Himalayan Salt

🖤 Frankincense

🖤 Paper and a Pen



* This is all I had available to me, remember your intentions when making this jar. Please know Palo Santo is endangered and is part of closed practices with Indigenous People.

Starting:

- Cleanse your jar, go ahead and talk to yourself if you want!

- I made a sigil for my jar, if you want you can look up creativity, motivation, inspiration pre-made sigils or make your own!

- Roll the paper up, and insert it in your jar.

- Next, Layer the lavender, pink Himalayan salt, and frankincense until you reach the top of your jar. I made sure my sigil was fully covered with my materials.

- After I felt like I had enough in my jar, I put the cork in it and then sealed it with a yellow candle.

- I did not do this, but even add shards of Carnelian, Citrine, or tangerine quartz! Make sure to do your research with crystals before you add them into your work. These were some crystals I had in mind that helps boost creativity. Remember, this is YOUR jar. Add what applies to you.

* I do want to note that this may not work for everyone, or it will take a couple of tries until you feel like your spell has worked. It’s okay to try again in the future! This personally helped with me. *

* almost all of my materials were given to me, definitely check out your local dollar store in the craft area if you want small jars with a cork. They work for me the best!*

🌷All About Rose Quartz🌷

Rose quartz is the stone of the Goddess. It not only activates and balances the Heart Chakra, it also links with the heart of the Earth and the heart of the Universe. rose quartz is a beautiful pale pink stone that has been a favorite among witches and mystics alike for hundreds of years. Not only being a perfect stone for enhancing romance and attracting love, rose quartz is a mothering crystal; inspiring nurture to one’s self if one has lost their own mother or has not had a strong mother figure. It promotes bonding and is a good stone to place on the stomach during pregnancy to give your baby extra loving vibes.

🌷Rose quartz symbolism🌷

💛Goddess: Aphrodite - Astarte - Turan

💙Element: Water/Earth

💚Chakra: Heart

🖤Numerology number: 9

🤎Astrology: Taurus/Scorpio

🧡Planet: Venus

🤍Tarot: The Empress

🌷What is rose quartz used for?🌷

Rose quartz is used whenever you want to bring loving energy into your life. You can infuse water with rose quartz, sleep with rose quartz, carry it, put it on your altar…

🌷What is “charging”?🌷

To charge a crystal is to place your intention into it. Many hold their quartz and tell it what you want it to do. You can also generally charge it without a specific intention with earth energy or moon energy.

🌷How do I cleanse rose quartz?🌷

✨-There are a few methods you can try.

One is putting it outside in a bowl of salt water under the full moon all night.

✨-You can bury your rose quartz in the earth to cleanse it. I like to leave it in the earth for three days to ensure it is fully cleansed and charged.

✨-Sage is an easy way to cleanse stones, though it isn’t as potent as if you did what was listed above. Mostly because sage is a much quicker process than dedicating hours or days to cleansing and charging.

🌷Why do my crystals disappear?🌷

Crystals can have a lot of energy stored into them after charging. They can disappear and reappear at will, depending on the energy of the crystal. It doesn’t mean it is “angry” or anything if you used it for magick and it disappeared for awhile.

🌷What if I don’t have a spiritual connection to my rose quartz?🌷

Sometimes crystals choose the people. It doesn’t mean you can’t connect with a different rose quartz. It might be best to give it to a friend or to put it on display.

I hope this was helpful! Have fun with your rose quartz!

˳✧༚ ☽ witchy activities to strengthen your craft & relationship with yourself ☾ ˚✧⁎

☾ perform literally any type of self care! our energy is constantly being drained either in spellwork, studying, or everyday life. you deserve it. (take a shower, drink some water, make some food, etc. don’t underestimate the power of taking care of yourself!)

☾ get some air dry clay and have fun with creating! you can make witchy items such as a pendulum, pendants, offerings, amulets to write talismans/sigils on, etc. and it’s even better because you’re making it with your own intent!

☾ when stressed, take a moment to connect with mother nature. this can be done wherever, even inside. imagine you are sitting in the grass. your roots are intertwined with those in the earth. they are giving you energy and strength. remind yourself everything is in divine timing.

☾ decorate your bos/grimoire and make it more ‘you’! remember, perfection is a completely made up term to make people overwork themselves. it doesn’t exist. what works for you, is perfect. what’s made with your hands, and your mind, is perfect.

☾ create a witchy playlist for when you’re doing spellwork/studying witchcraft! music can be incredibly uplifting. i’ve even created a witchy playlist for my blog! (check it out if you want hehe)

☾ wake up with the sun, go to sleep with the moon. have daily conversations with them both. realize they are your friends and are always there for you.

☾ record when you make mistakes magically! i know, this sounds like a nightmare to most neurodivergents. but you can use this to your advantage! you will learn from them, and eventually figure out what’s works for you and what doesn’t. knowing what works for you will empower you.

☾ carve sigils into your furniture for further protection! (and i mean your furniture, not your parents, roommates or siblings. please don’t vandalize things that aren’t yours)

☾ don’t stress yourselves out over labels. it can be fun to be this and that, but there is absolutely NO obligation to call yourself a certain type of witch! i have some witch friends that simply vibe, and practice all types. you can simply be a witch if you’d like.

☾ create your own set of rules/reminders/moral code to follow (ex. bible). although a lot of witches that i’ve met usually all follow the same type of moral code; if you’re not hurting anyone/anything, or meddling in anyone’s life, do what you please.

☾ cleanse your room/home! you’ll feel better, and sleep better. you can do this with incense, sunlight, sound, or herbs (please only use white sage if you’re native or if it has been gifted to you by a native person).

☾ don’t let ANYONE tell you how to do magic! it’s your craft! it doesn’t concern anyone else but you. if someone tries to tell you you’re doing something wrong, pay them no mind. (unless they are telling you that you are appropriating a culture, or something of the sorts then LISTEN!!!!)
