How Witches Choose the Element of Air to Elevate Their Life—Ep 231

How Witches Choose the Element of Fire to Accomplish Their Dreams
Over a span of five years, a great friend of mine, who is like my sister, and I would attend the Renaissance Faire in Northern California. We would immerse ourselves with the costumes, food, games, jousting, and actors. Each year we would fill up with glorious energy. This would be like oxygen and would fuel the flames of our creativity.
The Element of Fire is related to energy, passion, and daring.
I have three insights for you.
- Identify what is your oxygen that feeds your fire.
Two forms of “oxygen” for me are snuggling with my cat and talking on the phone with good friends. I also have game nights with certain friends, too. These are kindling to my fire.
What is in your life that builds up your energy? Make sure you devote time to what fuels your fire.
- Identify those people who extinguish your fire.
Who tears apart your hopes and dreams? Are they family members? Do you have a longtime friend who is really a toxic person in your life? It may be time to release them. Notice which people drain you. Once you have identified them, let them go. At least minimize your time with them.
It’s crucial you do this so you can accomplish your dreams and protect yourself.
- Invite the Gods to help you ignite and restore your fire.
Bring in the Gods to help you build your fire.
Here is a prayer so you can invite the Gods to help you.
Blessed Lord and Gracious Lady,
Help me identify those who extinguish my fire.
Guide me in protecting myself from their terrible influence.
Help me feed the glorious flame of creativity You placed within me.
So Mote to be.
May these insights support your path.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Choose the Element of Earth Over “Never Enough”—Ep. 230

How Witches Choose the Element of Earth Over “Never Enough”—Ep. 230
How Witches Keep Going with Their Creativity No Matter What
“I used to be so excited about the project. But now I’m just so tired. I’m afraid that having talent is not enough,” my friend, Jackson, said.
To give him some support I created the Elevate the Artist Ritual.
Elevate the Artist Ritual
Do this ritual on a waxing or full moon.
What you will need:
- One Green 7-knobbed candle
- Candle holder
- Lighter
- Candle snuffer
- Sachet of basil
- Clean towel
- Sea Salt
- Olive oil
- Frankincense (Incense)
- Incense burner
First, take a regular bath.
Empty the tub and rinse it out for the next bath. The ritual bath is not supposed to clean the physical dirt off your body. It is to cleanse you of negative energy you may have on your person.
Then place into the water of the ritual bath your sachet and three tablespoons of the sea salt. Relax in the bath and let go of all your stress. Make sure you wash your whole body (including your head) with the water. Breathe in deeply and let go with each exhale.
Get out of the bath and dry yourself with the clean towel.
Go to the room where you will be doing the Elevate the Artist Ritual.
Light the incense and waft the smoke over you.
Also, waft the incense smoke around your container of oil and the 7-knobbed candle.
Sit and meditate about what you want to happen. Really concentrate. See yourself with the success you desire in your heart. As you do this you will now “dress the candle” which simply means rubbing oil on it. Pour some oil into your palm. This is important: Rub from wick to base. Rub oil on the entire candle in this manner.
Place the candle in its holder and continue to meditate on your desire.
Now with your desire firmly in your mind, light the candle and chant the below prayer three times as the candle burns.
Let the candle burn until the first knob is gone. Then use a candle snuffer to extinguish the candle.
Over the next consecutive six days, you will repeat the burning and chanting for each knob of the candle. You will also continue to visualize your goal. This process will take a total of seven days.
The Chant/Prayer
Blessed Lord and Gracious Lady,
Help me remove the blocks in myself to joyful and healthy success.
Bless me to create great relationships in the ______________ industry.
Thank you for the gifts you have given me.
I do my best to create a great contribution to the people of the world.
So mote it be.
May you be supported by this process.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Stop Cursing Themselves – Ep. 229
How Witches Align with the Energy of Water
“Be like water,” I said.
“Really? You’re quoting Bruce Lee?” my friend, Jessica, asked.
In our conversation, we noted how water flows and transforms.
I have three insights for you.
- Learn to Say No.
Do you have a friend who is so kind and says yes to every request? My friend, Liz, is like that. And she’s tired all the time.
I later realized an important point: When you say no, you open multiple doors to other opportunities.
When I think of water, I realize that one can guide it. How? Build a dam. Guide how the water moves. Put up a flood barrier and say, “We’ll keep the water out of this area.”
Keeping the water out is “saying no.” We do this in our daily life.
Perhaps, you decided to stay in, during high school, and study for a test.
You said no and opened up a chance to excel on the test.
We, witches, can decide to do a weekly ritual and let go of watching some TV.
Saying no to one thing means saying yes to something more important.
- Learn to dissolve resistance.
Water is the universal solvent. Like water, meditation can help us dissolve resistance and stress.
During meditation, you can reach out to the Gods for guidance. We can use meditation to empower us to work out problems with the Gods’ help.
Are you resisting some new change in your life?
Consider meditation as something that opens your doorway to new possibilities.
3. Transform
If heat is applied to water, it doesn’t resist. It transforms into steam. If water gets cold, it doesn’t resist. It transforms into ice.
Are you resisting change? How is that working or not working?
I’ve learned that life is about change and growth.
We, witches, appreciate the natural flow of nature, cycles, and seasons.
What season are you in now? Is it a time of seeding, cultivating, enduring, or harvesting?
Do you long to speed up the process?
Be like water and transform when appropriate.
Life is all about transforming into something new. Even as we get older, we are transforming into what we will become—and what we need to become.
This is the reason that we study and honor the cycles of nature. The cycles of life, death, and rebirth.
Each day gives us the chance to awaken, flow like water, and experience rebirth into our transformed self.
May these insights support your path.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches See the Signs and Avoid Bad Outcomes—Ep. 228
How Witches Break free of the Negative Spiral
I couldn’t believe the mistake I just made. I had interrupted my friend, Sarah, as she was pouring her heart out. Our conversation went off the rails because I jumped in with my comment.
Because I have clinical depression symptoms, my brain immediately went to this question: “Why am I so stupid?” That question functions as an “Open Loop.” The Open Loop is a pattern in which a thought is not complete, and it causes distress.
Here are three insights.
- Beware of the “Controlling Open Loop.”
An Open Loop is something unresolved in our thinking. Perhaps, you’re like me, and you’ve thought: “Damn it! Why am I so stupid?!”
Then what happens? Your brain goes and finds an answer. Any answer. The answer may be false. But it sticks in the brain.
Then more negative thoughts rise. And you spiral down into a dark place.
- Beware of how authority figures use the “Controlling Open Loop” to get what they want.
Certain parents, teachers, and bosses use guilt and shame. Why? It works. The previous generation used such manipulative techniques on those individuals.
The pattern keeps going.
What is the solution? Devote compassion to yourself.
If you hear yourself say, “Why am I so stupid?” stop. Say something like: “That’s not me talking. It’s some voice from the past.”
Use Take 5. That’s a pattern of deep breathing. You breathe in deeply five times. On each inhale, tell yourself, “I breathe in Goddess’s love.” On each exhale, tell yourself, “I let go of unfair thoughts.”
- Ask the Gods to help you know your power.
Certain other spiritual paths want to control people. How do they do it? They label people outside their group as evil or wrong. Such groups declare that people who disagree with them will end up destroyed.
As witches, when we pause and connect with the Goddess, we know our power.
But then a “Controlling Open Loop” can strangle us with negative thoughts that deny our worth created in us by the Gods.
You can talk to the Gods through meditation or prayer.
A Prayer for Understanding
Lord and Lady,
Grant me the sight to see my true power.
Help me raise the curtain on my strength,
So, I can see my true light and conquer the Open Loop.
Let none turn me away or lead me astray with their hateful words.
Let my strength shine brightly.
So Mote It Be
May these insights support your path.
Blessed Be,

How Witches Release Frustration and Stress –Ep. 227
How Witches Enhance Their Luck
“Destiny! I don’t buy it. That’s denying all the work that Alicia put into earning that high-ranking job,” my friend Stephanie said.
“What about Van Gogh? He wasn’t recognized during his lifetime,” I replied.
If a person, perhaps, an artist or entrepreneur, achieves something big, is it a matter of destiny? Or luck? Or grace?
“Luck is success or failure apparently brought about by chance rather than one’s own actions.”
“Grace is … unmerited favor.”
“Destiny is the events that will necessarily happen to a particular person or thing in the future.”
– Oxford Languages
I have three insights for you.
- Release yourself from the shackles of an “unmerited favor.”
This is where Wicca steps away from a number of traditional spiritual paths.
In Wicca, we notice we are born with merited favor. How? We are born of the God and Goddess. That means we are born worthy.
We have earthly parents. But we also have the Gods as parents. They care about us so much.
This was hard for me to understand when I was a small child. I didn’t know what real love was until one day. I completed a session of reading my first book about Wicca. Then I meditated. I called on the Gods—and They manifested next to me!
I always remember this experience. This helped me feel, deep in my heart, that I have merit. I mean something. I am loved for who I am.
How about you? Do you feel your intrinsic merit?
Perhaps, you want to meditate or pray. Call out to the Gods.
Keep your senses alert to a possible sign of divine support.
If you are still struggling with a belief that you do not deserve love or the Gods’ favor, pray and reach out to the Gods.
- Elevate luck with human warmth.
The Gods love us and give us Their favor on many things.
The Wiccan Path includes showing your fellow humans warmth and kindness.
The author Tom Marcoux wrote: “The more you express kindness with people, the more they want you to succeed. The more they bring opportunities to you. This elevates your luck.”
When people feel good around you, they are more inclined to help you.
This means that you are more likely to get the break you really need. Perhaps, someone will connect you with a person who can open a whole new phase of your life.
In this way, we can make our luck with the help of others.
- Empower a Talisman
Amulets and Talismans—what’s the difference? Amulets are found in objects like four-leafed clovers. Talismans are man-made objects that are charged. You can make a talisman out of anything that’s natural. Don’t use man-made substances (plastic or otherwise).
Charging Your Talisman
First, be sure to charge your talisman during the waxing moon.
Cast circle in the usual way.
Cense and Spurge the talisman. Dance to raise power while holding the talisman and place the energy into the talisman.
Now put the talisman on the pentagram of your altar and place your hands on top of both. Focus on the talisman and say this incantation:
Little talisman of mine,
Listen up, for it is time.
I empower you now, So, listen up!
For what I say must give me luck.
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 my talisman all your power.
I call upon the powers of the rivers and the seas,
Listen to my honest pleas.
May this talisman bring me ________ and luck,
Protect me from ________ and muck.
Lovely Lady of the Moon,
Give me this my greatest boon.
You have now charged your talisman.
Do your Cakes and Wine Ceremony.
May these insights support your path.
