How Witches Shift From Life as a Solitary To Being In a Coven Ep. 37

“I have no choice about this,” my friend, Steve, said.
I immediately thought, Is that true? Does he have no choices?
Maybe you’ve been in a similar situation when you wanted to offer some ideas to a friend, but you could feel it … the friend just wanted to vent. They were not open to hearing new or different ideas.
The good news is that we can turn to the Gods when we, personally, feel confused or feel that we have no choices.
Here are three helpful insights:
Say a prayer and ask the Gods, “Please reveal to me some positive choices I have that seem hidden to me now.”
You can also use a divination tool like a pendulum or Tarot Cards. Ask the Gods to guide you while using the tool.
How to Use a Pendulum
You’ll use a chain with a stone attached at the end. Hold the end of the chain and have the stone (crystal, precious metals, etc.) dangle over a sheet of paper with your two choices inscribed.
Loop the chain over your middle finger. Hold still. Declare that if the appropriate choice is “A,” then the stone will rock vertically (flowing toward your abdomen and away). Also, declare if the correct choice is “B,” then the stone will rock horizontally. Ask the Gods to show you the correct answer. Hold still and see what answer you get.
The Gods care about you. They know of the path you need to tread. It may not be the path that is easy, and it may not be the path that you preferred.
However, it’s the path that calls you—if you can hear it. Ask the Gods to strengthen you and to remove distractions so you can hear the call of the path aligned with your destiny.
It’s important to walk your Destiny Path for your own personal growth. We have lessons here during this incarnation.
Invite the Gods to support you and walk with you on your True Path. You can do this through prayer, ritual, or simply by talking (in your mind) to the Gods. Consider taking a walk in nature and enjoying such an internal conversation with the Gods. Ask what you need to learn on this journey. Ask Them to clarify your answer. Additionally, you can ask the Gods to move any obstacle out of your way.
May this process bless your life.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Deal with Feeling Oppressed by Society Ep. 36

“I’m dreading taking the BART (the subway in the San Francisco Bay Area),” my friend, Olivia, said.
“Something in particular?” I asked.
“The last two times, some guy was stumbling around talking to people. These guys were strange—even scary. I was thinking—please don’t talk to me. Please don’t talk to me,” she said, her face wincing at the memory.
I can relate in that I’ve been using public transit recently. It feels like a gamble to take public transit. You could be late, verbally abused or worse.
So how can witchcraft help?
I ground and center before traveling. Additionally, I put up my energy-shield at the beginning of my journey with the InstaCircle.
How to Do an InstaCircle
Using your power hand (this would be your dominant hand), trace the Circle three times around and above your head.
I cast my Circle thrice,
round, round and round.
Point your index finger up to the heavens and then pull energy down to the ground.
Let no bane get in,
From heavens to ground.
That completes your InstaCircle and your energy-shield.
Next, I say this prayer:
The Safe Travels Prayer
Dark Mistress of the Waning Moon, and
O Hairy Horned Lord of death and rebirth.
Give me Your protection during this journey,
Keep all troubles that come my way at bay.
As I do Will, So, Mote It Be
May this process bless your journey.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

“I’ve heard of sacred oils for ritual use,” my friend, Mia, said. “How do they help?”
“You can anoint yourself as a blessing. You can anoint a magickal tool to cleanse it,” I began.
Knowing how to make sacred oils for ritual use is cost-effective, and it’s being truly witchy!
I prefer to harvest my herbs when I have the chance. But that may not always be practical.
When you look carefully, you can find reputable online sources and brick and mortar stores where you can find appropriate herbs.
Warning: Do not use poisonous herbs!
You can use sacred oils for anointing yourself and others for different reasons. Below is the Herb Empowerment Chant to charge your herbs.
Herb Empowerment Chant
Little bundle of [herb you are using] of mine,
I empower you now, for it is time.
I call upon the powers of the Moon and Sun,
I call upon the powers of the Earth and Sky.
I call upon the four elements, Earth, Air, Fire, Water,
Give this [herb you are using] all Your power.
I call upon the powers of the rivers and the seas,
Listen to my hopeful pleas.
May this [herb you are using] bring me peace and tranquility,
And protect me from all negativity.
Lovely Lady of the Moon,
Give me this, my greatest boon.
Now that your dried herbs are charged, use the following directions to complete your sacred oil.
How to Make a Sacred Oil
What you will need:
On a full moon, use your herb of choice.
Warning: Do not use poisonous herbs!
Cleanse and consecrate your jars, cheesecloth, funnel, and oil.
Ask the Gods to enrich these items with their positive energy.
Fill one of the jars two-thirds full of the herbs, and then fill the jar the rest of the way with the oil. Jiggle the jar to get all the air out from in between the herbs, where pockets of air can stick. Once the jar is full, shake it until the contents are well-mixed.
Leave the jar in a dark, cool place.
Shake the jar each day, and make sure to keep all the herbs submerged to avoid mold. Open the jar and smell the oil to make sure it isn’t going rancid. Repeat this process for a full month until the next full moon.
Once your oil has been fully infused with the herbs, you will use cheesecloth to strain the mixture.
Place the funnel into the opening of the second jar. Place the cheesecloth over the funnel and pour your mixture into the second jar—straining the mixture with the cheesecloth. Make sure you squeeze the herbs in the cheesecloth to get all the mixture out of them.
Place a label on the mixture jar to identify it—and the date when you strained the mixture.
May this process bless your life.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Maximize the Law of Attraction Ep. 35

Many of my readers seek healing and magickal empowerment. With Midsummer near, we have the opportunity to harvest and dry herbs. Witches know that empowering dried herbs is the first step to creating a magickal tincture to empower your magick and heal yourself or another person.
Begin by placing your dried herbs on the pentacle that resides on your Witch’s altar. Say the following chant aloud:
Herb Empowerment Chant
Little bundle of [herb you are using] of mine,
I empower you now, for it is time.
I call upon the powers of the Moon and Sun,
I call upon the powers of the Earth and Sky.
I call upon the four elements, Earth, Air, Fire, Water,
Give this [herb you are using] all Your power.
I call upon the powers of the rivers and the seas,
Listen to my hopeful pleas.
May this [herb you are using] bring me peace and tranquility,
And protect me from all negativity.
Lovely Lady of the Moon,
Give me this, my greatest boon.
Now that your dried herbs are charged use the following directions to complete your sacred tincture.
How to Make a Sacred Tincture
What you will need:
On a waxing moon thirteen days before the full moon, cleanse and consecrate your jars, cheesecloth, funnel and a bottle of vodka.
Warning: Do not use poisonous herbs!
Ask the Gods to enrich these items with Their positive energy as you fill one of the jars one-third full of the herbs. Fill the jar the rest of the way with vodka. Shake the jar until the contents are well mixed.
Leave the mixture in a dark, cool place.
For thirteen days, mix the herbs by shaking them daily. Make sure to keep all the herbs fully submerged to avoid mold.
Once your tincture (the mixture) has been fully infused, use the second jar, funnel, and cheesecloth to strain the tincture. Place the funnel into the opening of the second jar. Cover the funnel with the cheesecloth and pour your tincture through the cheesecloth—into the second jar. Make sure you squeeze the herbs to get all the tincture out of them.
Label the jar and identify when the tincture was completed.
Now the tincture is ready for you to use in your spell work.
May this process bless your life.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

Bad Thoughts and How Witches Deal With Them Ep. 34

“Do Wiccans get help from the ‘Dark Mother’?” one of my readers asked.
Wiccans know that working with the Dark Mother is helpful when you need to rid yourself of negative energy, illness, and ex-partners.
It is vital to notice that the Dark Mother helps one do something we can call “positive deconstruction.”
Deconstruction can be natural. For example, a tree falls in the woods. It is natural and good for the tree to decompose. Then there will be nutrients for other things to grow.
Here’s another example. A Wiccan can appeal to the Dark Mother by doing a spell in the waning moon (light to dark) to get rid of an illness. You are using magick to get rid of that illness.
As you can imagine, the Dark Mother is the opposite side of the fertile and growing aspect of the Goddess.
A Prayer
Dark Mother,
Help me get rid of _____.
I realize it is natural and good
To let some things decompose
So I may embrace my new chapter of life.
May this process bless your life.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater
