Little Love Witch Haul From Today 💕🌹

Things I've learned so far in my witchcraft practice:

Your intuition is your best friend; better to be wrong and safe than right and silent.

Your digestion knows when something is off.

Not everyone has to believe you, and not everyone is worth telling.

Divination is here to guide you, not to define you.

Protection. Cleansing. Protection. Cleansing. Protection. Clea—

When you get in your own head, you get in your own way.

Magick is science, psychology, intention, and unknowns.

Tools are only focuses; you are all you need.

There is energy in everything; atoms are moving all around us, each working together to keep the universe from unravelling. How bold of us to assume we aren't able to witness that energy.

Ask for permission, not forgiveness; your sister may forgive, but the earth may not.

Even if this is all bullshit (it isn't, in my experience), it's fun, and laughter is the best medicine.

Aloe for burns and antibiotics for infections.

"Let other men go to war; Protesilaus must love."

You don't owe your time, energy, or resources to anyone else, but sharing is often rewarding.

Some information is too valuable to give away; charge for the things you cherish; keep the things you need.

Be respectful of everything. I mean everything.

Research, research, research!

Sometimes the aesthetic is half the fun.

Your blood, your bones, your sweat, your tears; they are all deeply a part of you so long as you're tied to your body. They belong to you for a while, but they're on loan; use them wisely.

Know your present place; know your potential; they are not the same thing.

Witch tip

If you’re at a beach, write out sigils in the sand close to the water. The sun will charge them and the changing tides will activate them.
