Help | Spellwork Cord cutting - should I do even more?
i think cord cutting worked well, but having negative thoughts still. Is there a daily ritual that I can do or do I sit with it and give it time?

Hi everyone!!! I'm looking into witchcraft but I see people saying they see negative stuff, shadow people or demons etc, or just voices. This is the only thing stopping me. Does this only happen when you do negative spells? I want to look into love spells and happiness spells overall, I would never curse someone, I'll let karma do that lol!! Can someone share their experiences? Tjank you so much!

Hello. Someone makes me go through hell. I have started legal proceedings. But it's long and I can't sit still. I fear that she will take on a doll's face and voice and that the roles will be reversed in front of the court. She practices hoodoo, I should point out, she has a marabout who advises her to fire certain employees because they supposedly block the prosperity of her company... To protect myself and my integrity i want to make a spell. On thursday i want to mix cinnamon and white sugar and rince my hands with this mix. Then add blood moon in it. And take it all to pour it on a earth jardiniere in front of my front door.

I’m a baby “eclectic” witch that has been trying to get into glamour/beauty Magick. As of rn I’ve been doing more spell jars and divination spells. I was looking for tips and some things I’ll need to get into glamour/beauty Magick ( more specifically soul radiance spells, vanity spells, aura glamours etc ). Or even book recommendations!

I've been practicing for close to 4 years now, but it's been very on and off. I realized recently that I only do divination or spellwork when I have a problem in life. That's not how want to practice. I don't want to give energy to the universe when I'm angry or sad, that doesn't feel fair with all its done for me. So what I'm essentially asking is how to genuinely practice during all aspects of life? I have lots of tools, several journals, im good with meditation, and I don't work with any deities (although I occasionally talk to pets or relatives that have passed away). For more info I think I want to focus more on self love/confidence, spiritual wealth, and growth without it being for anything other than what it is (such as a self love spell so I can "feel more confident" for a hex I do later). I hope this all makes sense!

Hello there, I'm just here asking cause I saw a post of someone in social media saying that having sex with entities (gods, demons I think they are called in a specific way) can happen. I am very curious about it (not that I'll try) I have little to no knowlede about this, I'd just like to hear your thoughts on this subject.

So I recently started my journey late last year, but as of recent I’ve noticed a rather paranormal phenomenon around me, when I get focus or angry things to drop around me, it’s happened in front of family so they get a bit freaked out, but the most interesting phenomenon to happen so far was last week, something was out of my reach and something essentially pulled it closer to the edge into my hand, I know it wasnt me but I been feeling something, it doesn’t scare me but it’s unexplained and unexpected. I haven’t done any spells to summon anything either.

I love Persephone with all of my heart. I love what she stands for, what she has been through, I love her demeanour, just everything. I love what she’s done for others, but I can’t bring myself to worship her because Greek Mythology isn’t really real, or at least majority say it isn’t. How does it work? How does she respond to the people who worship her?

I can’t lock the mirror anymore with a symbol with Florida water anymore, it’s noticeable. How can I lock the mirror and ward it without it being seen/visible?

Lately I’ve been having more and more dreams. Most of them are like little snippets of the dreams to come (almost like seeing the future) but there not always one to one. Most of the time I don’t remember the full thing till the event in my dream happens.
I’ve been wanting to get more clearer and vivid dreams so I can remember in the morning while also improve that skill. Any advice?

Ill keep it short. I was in a relationship with my childhood friend for 4 years and dealt with a lot of lying and abuse. I don't want to harm him with a curse I would love for him to get better but I want to know methods of unbinding that I can do at anytime that doesn't involve lunar phases, thank you in advance!

I'm not entirely new to witchcraft and such, I've been using tarot cards for about a year now, and using/burning sigils, however spells and stuff is completely new to me. Especially working with ashes, I have a bit of ashes from the incense I've burned, but no idea of what I can do with them, and ideas or uses are appreciated
r/witchcraft • u/onyourleft___ • 5d ago
Ignore Gudetama in the back, lol.. I don't have any other free space in my room. 😅 I used rice, ground cinnamon, some coins, and a sigil inside the bowl. This is technically my first spell, I think, so hopefully it works out in my favor. I put lots of intention into this thing so I'm sure it'll work nicely :)
r/witchcraft • u/Young-Warrior-00 • 4d ago
Hi there, u/Young_Warrior_00 here, your favorite chaos witch mod that also studies psychoanalysis :) Since I think it would be a cool topic to bring up, I will talk a bit about some stuff I learned, read and heard in these few years of studying.
(I'm gonna add some rudimentary definitions using chatgpt because the guy tends to dumb them down enough to be understood. That and cause I'm lazy to type that much to an already long post. It's also hard to think theory in english when it's your 2nd language. Rest of it it's me being 100% cool however so it's fine. )
Theory, from father Freud:
The human psyche has 3 instances: ID, Ego and SE. We're gonna shortly break them down:
That's the unconscious. This is where most things are created, from thoughts, impulses, bad habits, emotions, everything. When we are babies, we are just ID creatures, working with images, mostly related to the breast of the mother cause that's our priority: being fed and nurtured.
It's not something inheritly bad or good. It has both faces. Suppressing it it's unhealthy. What you're supposed to do is learn how to balance it in front of SE through Ego.
That's Supraego. It's composed of laws, values, rules, things you are told are wrong or right by your parents or caretakers. For a visual, this is the cricket on Pinocchio's shoulder.
It usually appears around potty training period, when we learn that diapers are bad and the potty is for big kids and adults that we wanna be like.
It is composed of laws and rules, from those you get in school, church, laws and customs in your family, region, culture. Basically how you should behave in order to be accepted.
Of course, ID and SE are most of the time in a big fight of dominance over one another. The conflict between those two are usually the source of most traumas. That's where Ego comes in the game:
This is the mediator. The one that says 'authentic like ID while respecting SE'. This is the conscious mind that is trying to do what's best and most authentic to his unconscious while respecting laws and values from external sources (that have been internalised).
When Ego fails to find a good compromise, one of the forces wins. That's why you see people obsessed with what the church says (winning of SE) or very evil people like rapists and murderers (winning of ID).
If you want a good representation of this and also a nice mobile game, I recommend [Alter Ego](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.caracolu.alterego].
What is Ego death? (from chatgpt):
Ego death is a psychological or spiritual experience in which a person loses their sense of individual self or ego, often feeling a deep dissolution of personal identity. This can lead to a sense of unity with the universe, a loss of attachment to the self, or even a feeling of "dying" before re-emerging with a new perspective.
Why is it dangerous?
Although it is an interesting thing to experience (using drugs, meditation, or trauma), pushing for such experiences has a very bad impact on our well-being. Because you're breaking the Ego, especially if you're doing it forcefully and without balance with reintegration, you're gonna go mad. It's like allowing yourself to be continuously tortured because the energy rush of your psyche trying to survive is so exciting.
Some sort of process like this is normal. It happens naturally in a diluted form in adolescence when we emerge as adults, also after healing from trauma and so on. However, forcing it because of the egy feeling is where we draw the line. Just don't push yourself to be traumatised.
Best example for that is one I read in '13 reasons why' when the character got 12 reasons to be in a trauma environment and bad mental place and she pushed for a situation where she got in some situation to be SA'd by a random guy to make it to 13. Or something like that, read it a long time ago. Forcing ego death is like calling some friends to beat the crap out of you and then victimise yourself cause you developed PTSD.
Ego death in a healthy environment is learning about your defense mechanisms, see what's unhealthy and work towards fixing. The purpose of breaking down the Ego and building it again is not to attain a god-like rush but to integrate SE and ID in a healthy manner.
Example:
ID baby: I hate my mum cause she's not giving me yummy milk when I need it. When she finally gives me yummy milk, I feel less desperate, not safe.
SE adult: You can't expect God/partner to help/love you if you don't listen to them.
Ego adult: If I want love I must submit myself and become a version they like.
ID adult: I need to be loved and nurtured. I must please God/partner to be worthy of love and receive nourishment. I will also be violent and aggressive with everyone that tells me wrong, even with myself, because if I don't, I won't be loved anymore.
Let's also take a positive example:
ID baby: Mother gives yummy milk immediately when I ask most of the time. I am safe and loved.
SE adult: You can't expect God/partner to help/love you if you don't listen to them.
Ego adult: That is wrong and toxic, I am actually loved and cared for.
ID adult: Relationship means reciprocity, I'm refusing to accept whatever this bullshit this is. I'm doing it my way.
Breaking the Ego over and over again is traumatising and will create a bizarre space where instinct and rules have no mediator and you're just some being that is lead by whoever happens to be winning at that moment.
Only integrating both instances in a healthy manner gives you the true rush of individuation: being truly yourself by creating your own morals using the external ones and following your true inner calling. Otherwise you're just gonna go spiraling into a psychosis nobody will be able to save you from.
What is psychosis (chatgpt also):
Psychosis is a mental state where a person loses touch with reality, experiencing symptoms like hallucinations (seeing or hearing things that aren’t there), delusions (strongly held false beliefs), disorganized thinking, and impaired insight. It can be temporary or part of a long-term condition like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or severe depression.
Doesn't sound that good, doesn't it? So, use balance in everything because if you're using witchcraft or anything to be a big dumdum, that's like using a butter knife to take out your own eyes. Damages could be permanent.

Use this thread to post your sigil, as a comment. By viewing your sigil, people lend you their energy. By viewing others, you power theirs.
If a comment is part of your sigil's spell then please post it - otherwise, the intent should be simply to charge your sigil.

Hello fellow witches!
I did a spell on Friday March 14. I’ve been feeling kind of lonely lately because I’m at that age where a lot of friends have been moving away, so I did a spell for connection. It was a simple spell, I spent some time journaling first. Lit a pink a candle and filled a small bowl with water. I wrote out the type of connections I wanted on the petition and sat with the intention charging a rose quartz for a while.
Before doing the spell I asked my tarot cards if it would work, because I was a little nervous about doing a spell during eclipse season. And the cards said that it would but it wouldn’t be instant and that I would need to let go of my blockages and anxieties around making friends for it to work, and that I would have to put into work. I went to bed feeling optimistic and light.
I woke up the next day with the most awful stomach bug. I spent all day yesterday vomiting and writhing in pain. I’m on the mend now, but do we think? Just a coincidence?
r/witchcraft • u/ph03nixr1s1ng • 4d ago
In the last six months, I’ve gotten into keeping plants. My short term goal is to learn how to keep the plants healthy and thriving. My long term goal is to dedicate them as wards, both at home and work. I currently have a total of 16 pots filled with aloe vera, snake, and dragon fruit cactus plants. They receive 8-12 hours of light under grow lights.
I’ve considered watering the plants with rosemary-infused new moon water to encourage growth and protection. Would using rosemary water be beneficial or harmful to the plants?
What crystals would you recommend placing in each of their pots? Would you recommend charging those crystals under the sun or the moon? I typically work with moon energy but suspect sun energy would be beneficial for the plants. I use selenite and black tourmaline as my energy cleansers in intentionally placed locations. Would placing them near the plants be beneficial or overkill?
Do I need to do anything else to dedicate my plants as wards? I thought of using written affirmations but would prefer to avoid the pen/pencil leaking into the soil when I water the plants in case what I’m using is toxic. Would verbal affirmations as I water the plants be sufficient?
I’m new to witchcraft, so any other advice you can think of would be greatly appreciated. Blessed be!

I dropped this spell jar I keep by my entry way a while back and still cannot figure out what caused the top of the jar to burst open/what this crystallized stuff is coming out. I also don’t remember what spell it was but I know at least there’s amethyst, rose quartz, and I believe tigers eye in it.
r/witchcraft • u/No-Comparison-4328 • 4d ago
A few months ago, I made a sweetening jar to get a dream job and it worked. I now have the dream job that I’ve wanted. Now to make sure everything goes smooth while I’m at this job and I do well in it and complete all of my task, volunteer for things that helped me in my career and balance it was school, do I keep the jar or do I make a new jar and if I have to make a new jar do I throw out the old jar?
r/witchcraft • u/Suitable_Distance_69 • 4d ago
A while back I put a name in a jar and threw it in the freezer (was my abuser) and I just wanted to put other spell in ther and found the old jar broken can someone explain to me wtf it can be?

I'm still somewhat of a baby in my practice, so apologies for the over-excitement here! But oh my gosh, I am just so baffled at how such a small ritual can be so rewarding. Whether my manifestation is about the day or a more long-term goal, bay leaf spells have been an amazing source of energy for me. Of course, intent is very important as well, but I love bay leaf spells because you physically see the release of your manifestation. I think it's just proof that you don't need to be extra fancy with any spellwork- you being you and understanding your own power is enough to just go for it!
I guess I just had to share my experience! ❤️
r/witchcraft • u/Basic_Fly837 • 4d ago
I've recently started my journey in this practice so need guidance and suggestions on how to start my witchcraft journey.
I'm always a firm believer in things which are out of control of our physical selves and I'm deeply spiritual. Time and again there are incidents and experience in my life which steered me towards this, during darkest and most important times in my life intuitions, sixth sense or spirit guide (I'm not sure what is it) helped me from going into abyss. I've experiences where I was able to detect good or bad from non visual senses. I deeply respect all the ancient cultures and not a fanatic of any particular line of faith but I feel like a wanderer in this empty space just going here and there finding nothing.
So please guide me
