Me Practicing Energy Witchcraft/Manipulation

What I see:

What everyone else sees:

Y'all, I have finally found some proper chocolate scented incense!

---

How did you gain such extensive and well rounded knowledge of astrology? Any book/resource recommendations? I’ve been highly interested in learning more about it for a while and I feel ready to dive in!

The short answer is that I've been studying astrology since the Fall of 1996 so we're coming up on 26 years of study. The longer answer is that I have read every single astrology book that I've ever gotten my hands on (I used to sit in the astrology section of Barnes & Noble and just read), I have investigated my own chart and the chart of every single person that I've ever been close to (and more than a handful of my "enemies"), and I am completely unafraid to ask questions. I have unabashedly made my friends, loves, and others my test subjects. This will be a long answer and I will write a separate post on astrology books (I've been meaning to anyway) BUT astrology is impossible to learn if you tackle it all at once. What you can see my synthesize IS 100% 26 years of study - I didn't start out here. Not by any means. I don't know where you are on your astrological journey, so I'm going to start very basic. The first thing that you need to learn is the signs. Inside and out. You need to understand the elements. You need to understand the modalities. You need to understand the seasons. You need to understand how each of these things comes together to create the energies that we associate with the signs. There is a reason that Taurus is fixed/earth/spring versus Virgo's mutable/earth/summer versus Capricorn's cardinal/earth/winter. You need to learn the ways that earth interplays with water and the ways the fire interplays with air and how the signs create oppositional energies with each other. Other than looking at your own birth chart (which you should ALWAYS be studying), I would not go any farther than that until you feel like you have reached a level of mastery of the signs themselves. Then, you need to understand the planets. These relate closely to the signs as each planet rules one or more of the signs, so your understanding of the signs will help you here. This is your first point of synthesis - you will realize that you were ALWAYS studying how the Sun shows up as a sign because that is what we are taught in pop culture astrology is. Don't focus on the outer planets - stick to the Sun and Moon here at first and then go on to look at the personal planets (Mercury, Venus, and Mars). This is where most of the meat of natal birth chart interpretation lies and is what you will, inevitably, spend the longest time in study. Until you think that you can explain why Mars in Scorpio is different from Venus in Scorpio which is different from Sun or Moon in Scorpio, you really need to remain here. Understanding how the energies of each sign work with each planet is vitally important - this is the longest course of study for a reason. Next, you need to understand aspects. This is how the planets interact with each other in positive or negative ways. This is a lot of math and you can have programs do it for you but you really should learn to somewhat do the math yourself if you are capable. This is really just basic geometry - everything is about angles because the horoscope is a wheel. The most important aspects are calculated at 30 degrees intervals - 30 degrees is two planets in conjoining signs, 60 degrees is a sextile or two signs in aligning elements (earth to water or air to fire), 90 degrees is square or two signs in non-aligned elements (earth to fire or air, as an example), and 120 degrees is rrine or two planets which share an element, and so on. Until you can explain this as well as I just did and understand the orb of effect (how many degrees apart from an exact angle if allowed for you to consider the planets in aspect with one another) - this is where you should remain. This is the meat of the natal birth chart - it shows our natural strengths and our weaknesses. After you have mastered this - you finally have a choice. If you are interested in continuing down the path of the personal birth chart, I would tackle houses next. If you are more interested in how we interact with each other - I would tackle synastry - the study of how two charts interact

with each other. If it's especially important to you, you could also specialize at this time by doing a deep dive into planetary retrogrades, or the outer planets and how they impact our lives, or some other astrological niche. (I went with Synastry here and no regrets, it's a fascinating subject) Transits - what I post about most often on this blog - as a synthesis of my knowledge of the signs, the planets, and the aspects. You need to have a deep knowledge of how a planet affects an individual who is born during a transit before you can start to understand how people living in the world will experience that very same transit. This point is the hardest to explain how to get here - all I can say is that I asked the planets to show me. This came to me when I started working planetary magic - primarily with Mercury and Venus but also with the others as well.

That was a lot. I hope that helps. Feel free to send me additional asks if this wasn't what you were looking for.

Telling the bees

The custom of "telling the bees" is a charming and ancient tradition where beekeepers inform their bees about significant events in their lives, such as deaths, births, marriages, and other major occurrences. This practice is believed to have its roots in Celtic mythology, where bees were seen as messengers between the human world and the spirit world. The presence of a bee after a death was thought to signify the soul leaving the body. The tradition became particularly prominent in the 18th and 19th centuries in Western Europe and the United States.

To tell the bees, the head of the household or the "goodwife" would approach the hives, gently knock to get the bees' attention, and then softly murmur the news in a solemn tone. This ritual was believed to keep the bees informed and prevent them from leaving the hive or dying. The custom underscores the deep connection and respect that people historically had for bees, viewing them as integral members of the household and community. (The Historian's Den)

I can easily see how you can turn this in a magical tradition with some little adaptation: plant flowers and plants for bees in your garden, invoke the spirit of the bees, keep bee-telling to the bee-spirits and take care for the plants. I am sure that one day the spirit of the bees will be your ally and that you will learn from it. And a big plus: you are helping the bees to survive in a world full of mono-cultures and poisons. Witchcraft and care-taking for your environment can go hand in hand if you wish to.

SPELL JAR FOR LUCK

Hello all,

It has been a very long time since I posted anything but I am back to practicing as of recently! I hope to continue posting more of my grimoire for you all to see. To ease myself back into the craft, I decided to do a spell jar as I am moving house soon and I need as much luck around money and prosperity and abundance as possible.

What you’ll need:

Nutmeg - money, prosperity, protection, good luck

Cinnamon - success, healing, protection, luck, money

Poppy seeds - good luck

Thyme - good luck

Mint - wealth, prosperity

Dandelion flower - hope, wishing

Salt - protection, good luck

Honey - prosperity, abundance

Buttercup - luck, money

Hair and saliva (optional) - I wanted this to be as specific to me as possible, and I felt sacrificing some of my hair would be sacrificial to boost the power of the spell.

Steps:

Cleanse the utensils you are going to use such as the jar and any measuring equiptment.

Write on a piece of paper what you need luck towards - are you moving house? Do you need luck with an exam or a job? Try to be specific, but not overly so to allow room for adjustment. (Optional: write this in yellow, green or gold pen as these colours are associated with wealth or luck. You can also include a sigil of your choosing).

Put the piece of paper in the jar alongside the rest of your ingredients.

Once the lid or stopper is fitted, light a candle and seal the jar with yellow, green or gold wax (I used yellow).

Once you have done this, hold the jar in your hands for a few seconds and think of what this luck will grant you. Imagine yourself in the position you'd like to be in if this luck is granted to you. Blow out the candle you used to seal the jar and watch as the smoke dissapears.

Bees in Magick:

Bees are closely associated with the fae and their presence in gardens which indicates blessings of fae.

Thus, encouraging the blessings from the fae, while harming bees can anger them and cause them to seek revenge.

Bees in your dreams:

May be a good omen.

Bees in your dreams may be telling you to take a look at your social networks. They may be pointing toward a desire for more harmonious and functional relationships, or celebrating the ones you already have.

A visit from a bee in a dream may also be notifying you that a friend or family member needs to speak with you. You will know as this person will also pop into your mind somehow. It means call them or perhaps, that you will hear from them soon.

Dreaming of a beehive usually relates to the home and family or your business and coworkers. A happy, buzzing hive means a happy, buzzing home. It may foretell incoming abundance, and fruitful times ahead. If the bees are swarming around the hive, rather than working in it, proceed with caution. There is a lack of harmony that is interfering with productivity.

A swarm of bees may indicate that you feel that a group of people upon whose cooperation you rely is becoming chaotic and out of control. Perhaps the need to balance your own interactions with your different business and social groups for your own sanity.

Beehives bring to mind abundance and prosperity: bees seem to work hard and are rewarded by flowing stores of honey. An empty beehive, then, represents the opposite: lost opportunity and financial misfortune.

A beehive can also represent a home. The fullness or emptiness of the beehive may indicate unconscious feelings about family life, marriage, children, or the house itself. Honey may represent your property or belongings.

A beehive on fire or burned bees are often interpreted depending on your emotional and physical condition. Burned bees may mean you are overcoming fear and want to take control of life and anger, are you’re progressing through life with more confidence without any fear of obstacles. Burned beehives can also mean you have lost something precious, like money, a relationship, or some valuable information that you’ve forgotten or ignored.

If a bee or a swarm of bees is chasing you in dream, it may mean there is some unsettled business or a memory that haunts you. Make sure you let it go from your mind or deal with it in order to avoid these bees.

If you dream about getting a bee sting then something may be bothering you, or you have a persistent annoyance in your life. Concerns about your relationship, career, finance, or some unknown issue is bugging your subconscious mind. Find out what it is and sort it out.

Magickal uses for Honey:

Can be used in binding spells to symbolically stick things together.

Used for offerings to fae and deities.

Can sweeten a person or a situation.

 Honey is sacred to Aphrodite.

Can be used in spells corresponding to purification, health, love, happiness, spirituality, wisdom, good fortune, fertility, 

Use certain types of honey that corresponded with your spell.

Bathe in warm water and honey to attract love.

A dish filled with honey can attract angels and beneficial spirits.

Do your part to save the bees they are an important part of our life and in our magick practices. 

May the moon light your path!
