Grow one plant for each area of your life (mental health, physical health, friendships, etc). Every time you care for that plant, check in with yourself and see if there’s any way you could be helping that part of your life flourish.
Prune/harvest to cut out old issues Water/fertilize to encourage growth Repot/add soil for change and new beginnings
This spell is really easy and simple! It doesn’t take much time or setup, so its good for those that need rain in their area or want to help encourage a small storm, but don’t have much time!
Vape, for the smoke. You can also use a cigarette if you smoke. NOTE: Please don’t pick up a cigarette or vape if you don’t already smoke! You can find a substitute!
Cup
Map - If you don’t have a paper map, pull out your phone/ipad and pull up google maps in the area that you want it to rain in!
Rice
Pull your map up or out, and set your cup on top of the area that you want it to rain in. You can use any type of cup or mug, although I prefer clear glass or a copper mug if I have it available, with no stem. Just make sure the cup is well situated over the area that you want the rain in… if you want it in a bigger area a phone or iPad actually works better because you can zoom out.
Think of your intent, and don’t stop thinking of it.
Now take your vape (or whatever you are using for the smoke) and take a drag, and then exhale into the cup so that the vapor gets trapped inside. I wouldn’t exhale too hard, or you may end up causing some crazy wind and/or just blow it all out of the cup. The idea is to get it trapped inside the cup, at least for a small bit! The vapor smoke represents clouds.
Now remember your intent! Take a handful of that rice, and slowly sprinkle it into the cup through the smoke. You can say an incantation here if you like as well. If you want heavier rain, drop more rice! Its adjustable to what you want to achieve. But thats it!
Enjoy!
Reminder for my moon witches! With this moon phase, it’s the perfect time to perform any spells you might have been putting off or waiting to do!
For both the colonists and the Algonquin tribes, this was the time to set beaver traps before the swamps froze, to ensure a supply of warm winter furs. (x) Similarly, now is a good time to cast spells that prepare you for the oncoming winter, and the new year!
Supermoons, also called perigee moons, are when the moon is closer to earth than usual, and appears 14% larger in the sky and up to 30% brighter. This one will be the closest we’ve had in 69 years! Supermoons are known to bring the largest tides of the year, the moon’s gravitational pull creating more variation between tides.

(all associations are my own, this is just a personal guide)
Garden mud- hard work, growth, health, grounding
Pathway mud- obstacles, cursing, travel
Graveyard mud- spiritual communication, banishing, memory
Woodland mud- secrets, animal communication, invocation, peace
River mud- change, cleansing, blessings
When you clean the mud off your boots, let all the negativity you’ve picked up along the way go with it
Get a jar of pathway mud and put someone’s name in it. This will make it harder for them to achieve their goals (ahem, ahem, Trump)
As usual- don’t take anything from private private property (unless you have permission) and don’t trespass. that’s just illegal and id like you to be safe
and it might be wise to leave a gift when you take something from nature, but that’s a personal choice
Easy Blessing Candles Put tea light candles on a stove top (electric works best because it’s a flatter surface than gas stoves) on low heat. Melt the wax and then dash with herbs of choice. Then let them sit at room temperature to harden.
When planting mint in your garden, plant it in its own pot rather than in the ground itself or it will quickly spread and take over the flower bed
Quick Witch Tip! 🎃🕯 If you are in the Broom Closet but want to add sigils to your Jack-o-lantern, write them discreetly in the tea light base. I’ve written a sigil for protection and comfort in mine. And to make sure no one finds it, melted the bottom of the tea light just for a quick second to seal it to its base. When the light is burned up by the end of the night, toss them away and no one will be the wiser! Be safe the Samhain and have fun!

I felt like people searching my tags would need a little clarification on the difference between a jinx, hex and curse (according to me).
A jinx is a form of malevolent magic where the subject gets bad luck, minor misfortunes. It’s simple, nasty, but isn’t meant to seriously harm someone. Usually only lasts a little while. A hex is a form of malevolent magic, more powerful than a jinx. Lasts longer, and is usually “broken” when the subject learns their lesson. A curse is the most powerful, and if done well it can last a lifetime or even longer. Can be cast on a person or family, and can last forever or until something is done to atone for whatever caused then to be cursed.
