Let's Make A Quick Breakdown!

Since I did this just for funsies, I'll just put it here. An altar for Hekate, the witch ancestors and the spirit allies that I received as an epiphany through the sacred act of taking a shower... All hail the pipewater 🙌🏻

Let's make a quick breakdown!

On the very top of the altar, taking the spotlight, of course, is the Witchmother of this lineage, the matriarch herself, Miss Hekate of the Many Names! Formless Fire, Trimorphis, Brimo! This is her altar before anything else!

Her statue carries a coral-snake-like beaded necklace that tethers my practice to the land I live in, while also honoring these three sacred colors that represent her domain. A skeleton key hanged by red thread can also be seen, and, of course, her black candle is present, representing her main realm, which is earthly and subterranean. The ways, the dead, the world in which she makes herself Most Manifest.

On the lower left side, is the witch-ancestors part of the altar. I must admit I don't have much to put there considering this can only be fleshed out through practice, which is something I want to do with ancestors, but haven't yet.

Regardless, it is a place for deceased wotches that worked under Hekate's guidance in life. A skull is a classic for ancestry, and the cunning witch Medea is a main figure that would serve both as a gateway for these spirits and as a warden.

The candle is red, representing the oceanic part of Hekate's realms, but it's also the same blood that runs through our veins, that which is witchfire.

The lower right side of the altar is for the spirit allies.

The candle is white, representing the last realm of Hekate, that which is heavenly, and further away still. It is also the color of fog and elusiveness, that which is present in these spirits.

The star comes in a symbolic way, bringing the mystery of magic again through the lense of elusivity and unknown-ness.

This was done just as a visual aid for the idea I had. I wish I'll be able to bring these thoughts into reality soon enough.

Transparency: I couldn't bother drawing the statues from scratch for a visual exercise. The Hekate statue is very common and you'll find tons of them with a quick search. The statue of Medea was carved by William Wetmore, and the news it cannot be easily attained as a replica soured my day. /hyperbole

What Are Spell Bags?

Spell Bags are usually small bags that contain a range of ingredients linked to the intention of your spell. They can sometimes be known as different names, or have slight cultural differences. For the purpose of this post I will refer to a spell bag, but they may also be called spell sachets, charm bags, and in some cultures, mojo bags (please do your own research). You can also make spell jars, which are pretty much the same, only you use a jar and not a bag.

Bag Colors

Gold - wealth, protection, the God Silver - prosperity, the moon, the Goddess Yellow - healing Orange - travel, communication, messages Green - nature, growth, prosperity, abundance, friendship Blue - peace, calm, wisdom, benevolence Purple - wisdom, wealth, grandeur, mysteries, justice Red - success, romance, strength, protection Pink - love, healing, friendship Black - absorbs negative energy

How to Make a Spell Bag

Think about your intention for making the spell bag… Why are you making it?… What do you want to get from it?

Think about ingredients you want to put into the spell bag and their correspondences… What ingredients will fit into your spell bag?… What specific ingredients are associated with your intentions (for example, what herbs are used for protection)

Collect your bag and ingredients, and focus your intent on each of them. You may also want to write a magickal chant. This can be simply read out, or written down to leave inside the spell bag.

Assemble your spell bag.

Spend time either meditating on your intention, or reciting your magickal chant.

Find a place to put your spell bag. This may simply be on your altar, or in your pocket. Alternatively, there may be a specific place you want to put it (such as by your bed for a sleep spell bag, or in the corner of your room for protection).

Why You Should Learn Multiple Divination Methods

Why You Should Learn Multiple Divination Methods

Divination is a powerful tool for gaining insight, guidance, and clarity in life. While many practitioners have a preferred method, learning multiple forms of divination offers unique advantages and deepens your spiritual practice. Here’s why expanding your divinatory skill set is beneficial.

Different Tools for Different Questions

Each divination method excels in certain areas. By knowing more than one, you can choose the most effective tool for each situation, for example:

• Tarot provides in-depth storytelling and psychological insight.

• Runes offer direct, ancient wisdom with a no-nonsense approach.

• Pendulum dowsing gives quick yes/no answers for direct guidance.

• Scrying (mirrors, water, flames) connects you with visions and subconscious messages.

Having multiple techniques allows you to select the best one for your needs.

Cross-Validation for Stronger Readings

Using multiple forms of divination to confirm a message strengthens its reliability. If tarot, runes, and pendulum dowsing all point to the same answer, you can be more confident in your reading.

Adaptability in Different Environments

Some divination methods require more space or time than others. Having multiple techniques lets you practice divination anywhere, for example:

• Tarot and runes are great for detailed readings but require physical tools.

• Numerology or astrology can be done mentally when you’re without tools.

• Pendulums and scrying can be subtle enough for on-the-go divination.

Deeper Understanding of Symbolism and Intuition

Each system has its own symbolic language. Learning multiple forms of divination enhances your ability to recognize patterns and messages from the universe. For example:

Why You Should Learn Multiple Divination Methods

• Studying astrology deepens your understanding of tarot’s planetary influences.

• Learning numerology helps with interpreting numbers in divination spreads.

• Scrying sharpens your intuitive abilities for other methods.

The more symbols and correspondences you understand, the stronger your divinatory skills become.

Personal and Spiritual Growth

Every divination system has its own philosophy and historical roots. By exploring multiple methods, you:

• Gain a broader perspective on the unseen forces in your life.

• Connect with different spiritual traditions and expand your knowledge.

• Strengthen your intuitive and psychic abilities through diverse practices.

Enhanced Connection with Spirits and Deities

Some deities or spirits prefer specific divination methods. Expanding your knowledge allows you to communicate more effectively with different energies.

• Hekate is often associated with scrying and key-based divination.

• Odin, a god of wisdom, is connected to the runes.

• Mercury/Hermes aligns with dice and lot casting.

• Many demons are associated with divination practices, such as Gremory, Dantalion, Flereous, Delepitore, and more.

Having multiple methods lets you tailor your practice to your spiritual allies.

Avoiding Divination Burnout or Bias

Using only one form of divination can sometimes lead to mental fatigue or a fixed perspective. Switching between different methods keeps your practice fresh and prevents over-reliance on a single tool.

Knowing multiple forms of divination makes you a more well-rounded and adaptable practitioner. It strengthens your intuition, deepens your spiritual connections, and gives you access to the best method for any question or situation.
