Must have books for witches

(Read at your own risk, I recommend researching the authors before buying or downloading if you don’t want to support their work. Take the information in this book with a grain of salt and double check with another source you trust)

Hello, last time I posted about a book a lot of people liked it so I decided to bring 2 more… Both are one of my favorite books and I find myself checking them all the time. The info in both is very useful for those who are just starting out, I know it’s often overwhelming you don’t know where to start when you want to cast a spell but the correspondence book I think solves that problem as it gives you a table of correspondences for each intention, crystal, some basic plants, deities etc….

As for the second book, Encyclopedia of Herbs, I have used it since I started practicing many years ago. We always find the same herbs in tumblr posts (basil, rosemary, sage….) but many times we don’t have access to those types of herbs so this book was very useful for me to work and familiarize myself with the plants that I could find in my region

Subtle Witchcraft Tips

(coming from a closeted witch of 3-4 years)

stitch sigils or runes into your clothing - use a thread that’s the same colour of the fabric for extra subtlety

use bandanas to veil

display certain items as if they’re just decorative - all of my crystals are on a shelf and when my family asks i just tell them i like crystals! they’ve now assumed i’m a geology nerd lol

look into tea magick! tea is such a powerful tool for witchcraft and simply stirring your tea with intention can be a form of magick

if you wear makeup, paint sigils on your face with your foundation or concealer before blending

similarly if you wear nail polish, paint sigils on your nails

use perfumes or body products with certain scents that correlate to certain meanings e.g my shower gel and body oil are both lavender scented

create a shoebox altar - this makes it small and easy to hide

household herbs and spices can easily be used in spells!!

remember that a pendulum doesn’t have to be a fancy crystal on a chain, any small weight on a string can work just as well

any basic candle can be used in spells

research the correspondences of wearing rings on certain fingers

i love doing kitchen magick!! it’s so easy to incorporate into everyday life without blatantly being a form of magick

house plants can be great in magick

i know i briefly mentioned sigils before but don’t underestimate how powerful sigils can be!!

create small spell jars that you could easily hide

and remember: your craft is uniquely your own. don’t let anyone tell you what is and isn’t required to be a valid witch. i’ve had to be subtle about my practice for years and it’s taken a while for me to realise that i’m just as much of a witch as someone who openly practices.

blessed be <3
