Foods:
Oatmeal, pinch o salt, milk, brown sugar, cinnamon, allspice
Diced potato, finely cut beef, salt paprika, basil, lemon zest, scrambled egg
Tilapia & Shrimp - salt, cilantro, lemon, paprika, chilli powder, basil
Steamed white rice, salt, brown sugar, cinnamon, allspice, milk
Green tea with lemongrass, lemon, & mint
I usually use sea salt, but whatever
Jar: Basil, Bay, Carrot, Egg shell, Lemon slices, pennies, sealed with green & yellow wax, I used Chinese lucky coins tied to a ribbon to tie around the jar.
Altar: Gold cloth, 2 green taper candles, 1 yellow chime candle, a crap load of foreign currency, pennies, serpentine, carnelian, jasper (yellow or greenish colors), dragon’s blood scent, fehu rune and/or the Sun card from shadowscapes, and some of the wands cards depending on context
Galdr: chanting “fe fe hu” for about half an hour, sometimes I mix in, depending on context fehu with uruz or ansuz and so on, and/or ansuz (the z sounds can conflate between uruz and ansuz, and the u sound can conflate hu all three, imo)
Listen to your favourite song about the subject, use lyrics like a chant. Dress up during song. Wear jewelry or clothes like a body altar (gold and green colors, brown and copper are pretty good, coins and currency signs, etc) to invite prosperity to you.
Enchanting a coin, a favourite coin, and wearing it (in your shoe, in your pocket, on a necklace, in your wallet is preferred tbh - you can even shake it to help “activate” it)
Yule-Mothers Night Blót
I put this ritual together from various sources-I can’t claim all the wording myself only the final form of the ritual. This was used for my kindreds the first Mother’s night. Because of our eclectic group, we chose not to only focus on Frigg, and instead included many mothers. As offerings, each of the members that wished to partake creates a Poppet from straw in the shape of a woman, which was burned at the end of the ritual.
Hallowing-
To be done before the arrival of guests- it is not essential that there be witnesses{this was done to cut down on time, during the cold winter}
Godi holds the ceremonial hammer and opens the circle with the traditional blessing:
In the Elhaz position standing facing North the Godi speaks:
Hammer to the North, hold and hallow this holy stead.
Hail Odin and the Northern forces
Godi faces East and speaks:
Hammer to the East, hold and hallow this holy stead.
Hail Freyr and the Eastern forces
Godi faces South and speaks:
Hammer to the South, hold and hallow this holy stead.
Hail Balder and the Southern forces
Godi faces West and speaks:
Hammer to the West, hold and hallow this holy stead.
Hail Thor and the Western forces
Hammer above and Below me Hold and hallow this holy stead
Hail the Aesir and Vanir, the Ancestors and the wights of the land
Sacred Fire
Loki.
Pine-fire.
Through the power of my love for you, I ask that you kindle the flame of this sacred fire.
As you have you have kindled one in me.
As we honor this evening our mothers, I ask for the comfort of the hearth for my kin.
May they know your gifts, as the gods have done
***
{godi speaks}
Welcome, to the Wolves of the North Mother’s night Blót. I hope the evening finds you well and warm. Tonight, the longest night of the year, we come together in this circle to praise the many mothers in our lives.
Motherhood is a sacred charge, AVAILABLE, to every woman.
Whether conceived through coitus, or artificial insemination.
Through natural birth, or C-Section.
Born of the blood, or adopted.
How a woman becomes a mother varies, but what never changes is her love and her place as a guardian and teacher of the next generation. Like Skuld of the Norns and all mother Frigg, every mother is a safeguard of the future. Let us honor them.
Invocation
The Godi faces the altar, holding high with both hands a horn of mead and recites:
Meditation
{insert name/Gothi} will now lead us in a mediation; hold your poppet and reflect on your Disir, your ancestors and ancient mothers. Reflect on your living mothers and most of all your respect and love for them and theirs for you.
Hailing
We will now commence with a Sumbel, a little different than usual. In the first round I invite each of you to hail a goddess, Round two you may hail one of your Disir and on the third round a living mother of your family. At any point you may offer your poppet to whomever you would And As You cast it to the fire, reflect, feel their love for you. And give it in return. If you wish to pass on a round simply pass the horn to the person next to you.
Gythas example - Hail to Laufey, also called Nal, the Needle and weary Mother of Loki.
*poppet is offered to the fire*
Closing
Spirits of the nine realms we thank you for your presence here in this circle. We ask for your blessing and while you depart to your noble realm we bid you hail and farewell. I hereby release any Spirits that may have been imprisoned by this ceremony. Depart now in peace to your abodes and habitations. The blót is now ended, let the merriment begin.

Oorlog is the relationship of cause and effect in Norse belief. Causes and effects weave in and out of each other to create the Web of Wyrd, or the web of destiny.
Oorlog is the yarn, the Wyrd is the total knitted project.
Loki is a trickster who operates as an element of random chance in Norse stories, inciting change and movement.
Loki’s name means “knots.” Now I know why.

This is probably the witch advice you didn’t ask for, but I’ve found it’s much easier to remember to do general periodic maintenance that’s otherwise easily forgotten or put off when tied to milestones such as solstices, equinox, new, or full moons.
For example: Stow your winter blankets or clothes on the Vernal Equinox and take them out again on the Autumnal Equinox. Replace your air and water filters on solstices and equinoxes (every 90 days). Begin new 30-day challenges or do reset/cleaning of your living space on the new moon (every month).
Living cyclically breaks life down into manageable little blocks of time and helps us live in the moment by paying attention to the ebb and flow of the Earth.

1) Basic Cooking : This is probably pretty obvious and most people interested in kitchen witchcraft know at least the basics. But if you don’t - learn. You can do kitchen magic without even turning on a stove (sandwiches, salads, etc)
2 ) Cooking From Scratch : Start with basics and get more complicated. Basic things can include - Soups, Sauces, Marinated or Seasoned Meat, Potato Dishes.
3 ) Baking and Baking From Scratch : Baking from a box is perfectly valid. you can add things like fruit or nuts, you can make frostings or fillings, you can decorate. But baking from scratch is also a good skill. Pies, Pastries, Cakes, Etc. Also remember savory baking (like bread, meat pies, etc)
4 ) “Drink Potions” : Any drink really. Coffee, Tea, Juice, Milkshakes, Etc
5 ) Canning, Pickling, Preserving : I have limited experience in this, but there are lots of recipes for “Freezer Jam” or “Refrigerator Pickles” and im going to start with them.
6 ) Cheese Making, Yogurt Making : Another thing i have no experience in, but you can buy kits online for a decent price.
