🌸 Self Love Jar 🌸
Materials
Glass Jar with lid
Whole Cloves - draws in love. Good for divination.
Chamomile Buds - Love, sleep, protection and purification, also reduce stress.
Brown Sugar or Honey – to add a little sweetness (I think we all need to be a little sweeter to ourselves)
Rose petals – not only good for self love but attracting things to you and beauty spells too.
Pink Himalayan Salt – Salt is known for its protective and purifying nature
Lavender – calming and is great for heightening awareness. Also to rid anxiety.
Hibiscus Flowers – perfect for attraction and helping with dreams
Rosemary – this is my go to herb for lots of spells and rituals. A perfect substitute for any herb. Stops gossip and is great for the memory.
Bay Leaves – Write your intentions or mantra on the leaves (I am strong, I am beautiful etc)
Cinnamon – perfect for getting rid of negative energy and ‘warming up’ your own power!
Pink Peppercorns – to give yourself a little kick
Rose Quartz – to help open your heart and create feelings of peace. Raw Rose Quartz for self love in its most natural state.
Pink Candle – To seal the jar.
Method
Light some incense and take a few deep breaths before placing all your items into a jar. The size will depend on how powerful you want it or if you want to carry it with you. I have some teeny little jars that pack just as much punch as the larger ones. It is all about the intention you put into it.
As you add each item say either out loud or to yourself what you hope to gain or are wanting from the item.
‘I add this lavender to help ease my anxiety and give me a sense of calm’
With the bay leaves I like to use a permanent marker and write clear directions.
I AM STRONG
I LOVE MY BODY
This sets the intention solidly and you are not asking for permission. The words are declaring that you have got this and it is true!
After all of the items have been added you need to seal the spell. Light the candle and allow the wax to drip down the sides of the jar/bottle to form a wax seal. While still wet I like to place the crystal, in this case rose quartz, into the wax.
Hold the jar in your hands and feel the positivity you just created. Place onto your alter or work desk where you will see it regularly. When you feel the need for a little pick me up, hold it and feel the good vibes flow.
🌸 I am constantly growing, evolving and becoming my best self. I am enough. I am whole. I love myself. 🌸

A few days ago I got a spell request for Self Love. This ritual is adapted from a part of that spell. If you’d like a custom spell, they’re only $2 right now!
Message me for details.
This ritual is perfect to perform in the morning when you’re getting ready for the day, or at night when you’re getting ready for bed! Or just whenever you need to show yourself some love. 🖤
Everyone will have the supplies, so there’s no reason not to try it out.
Things You Need:
- Your favorite bath wash, shampoo, conditioner, and face wash.
- Coconut Oil, or your favorite lotion. (If you don’t like using oils or lotion on your face, you could use your favorite face wash here, or another substance you like using on your face.)
- Toothbrush & Toothpaste
The Ritual:
1. Take a cleansing shower or bath with your favorite bath supplies. Throw some bubble bath mix in there too, if you’d like, and if you have any rose quartz crystal, you can place those around the bath for some extra loving energy. While bathing imagine all the negative thoughts and energy being washed away from your mind, and cleansed from your body.
2. When you’re done in the bath, brush your teeth and imagine all of the negative things you’ve ever said to yourself or about yourself being brushed away and rinsed down the drain. Then rinse your mouth, and smile at yourself in the mirror. Say out loud: “I am amazing. I am worthy of everything I desire. I love myself.”
3. Rub the coconut oil or lotion on your face (or other substance), and while you’re doing that just imagine all the different things you love to do to nurture yourself, and all of the things you love about yourself. You can rub it all over your body if desired.
After doing this simple ritual you will feel an abundance of love for yourself, and if you perform it everyday, your self love will grow exponentially.
I hope you treat yourself kindly today and remember to take it easy on yourself.

The golden, misty, mysterious magick of autumn stirs colors in the soul of the Art Witch
1) Record an autumn color collection. Create a page cataloguing the autumnal colors you notice in your environment to heighten your magickal vision and drink in the seasonal beauty
2) Dab cobs of corn with paint or ink. Roll the corn cob onto the page for harvest inspired textured backgrounds or papers for later use.
3) Create a page dedicated to all of the beautiful poetic names for the autumn moons: Harvest Moon, Singing Moon, Wine Moon, Sturgeon Moon. Make up a name for a full moon inspired by your own environment.
4) Write a list of all the teachers you are grateful for: spiritual, craft, vocation, ancestral, animal, digital and academic teachers.
5) Trees are the star of autumn. Dedicate a page to honoring Dryads! Leave your book in a tree overnight for tree blessings and green magick inspiration.
6) Experiment painting with fruit juices to invoke bountiful harvest energy. Try pomegranate, cranberry, berries and wine
7) Use acrylic paint, paint pens or metallic paint to decorate dry leaves with patterns, words of power and symbols for all the blessings of the season.
8) Make a cornucopia shaped pocket. The cornucopia is a powerful symbol nourishment and spiritual abundance. Tuck drawings, magazine cuttings, words or symbols inside the cornucopia pocket to invite abundance and gratitude.
9) Write an affirmation to help you navigate change gracefully.
10) Use boxing tape to create specimen tags of autumn herbs, flowers and leaves. Sprinkle or place your dry botanical specimen on the sticky side of the clear tape. Seal with a second piece of tape and burnish out the air bubbles until the tape is flat. (These make fabulous mini spell book marks!)
11) Compose a letter to Themis, the goddess of Balance, Justice and Equality. (Her feast day is September 28th.) Ask her to imbue you with Reason, Fairness, Truth and Justice
12) Mushrooms galore! Celebrate mushroom magick in your book: Draw mushrooms from life, write a recipe using mushrooms, learn the names of mushrooms in your area or research mushroom myths and lore.
13) Create a dark mirror in your book. Paint one side of a piece of clear plastic packaging or page protector with black paint. Adhere the plastic to your grimoire page *shiny side out*, painted side in. (This gives you a reflective surface.) Draw or collage a frame for your dark mirror and scry away!
Wanted to share a two-day daily organiser with space to track/set your schedule!
