Sun Magick
The Sun (also called Sol) is the one and only star in our solar system. Throughout the time almost every culture has worshiped the Sun as either a God or Goddess. Ancient Shamans used the power of the sun to heal the mind. The Sun is associated with life, health and healing. The light of guidance and illumination is an important magickal symbol. Solar energy helps you center in your own power, like the center of the solar system. Planet Earth orbits around the Sun. Other bodies that orbit the Sun include other planets, asteroids, meteoroids, comets and dust. Generally, the primary stellar body around which an object orbits is called its "sun", and stars in a multiple star system are referred to as the "suns" of bodies in that system.

Sunrise
when the sun wakes up and peers over the horizon. This phase is all about new beginnings, changes, health, employment, renewal, resurrection and finding the right direction.
The Morning
the sun is growing in strength, so it brings the magical power for growth, positive energy, resolutions, courage, harmony, happiness, strength, activity, building projects and plans, prosperity and expansion of ideas.
High Noon
When the sun reaches its peak in the sky at midday – work magic for health, physical energy, wisdom and knowledge. It is also a good time to pop your tools or crystals out that need charging. (Note: some crystals can fade in strong sunlight so check first before putting them out).
Afternoon
This is a time to work in your communication, clarity, travel, exploration and professional matters
Sunset
As the sun takes itself off down below the horizon, work magic for removing depression, stress and confusion, letting go, releasing or finding out the truth of a situation.
Sun water is very similar to moon water. But rather than being charged by the moon, it’s charged by the sun. Sun water can be especially useful for helping boost the energy of a spell, to help an intention grow, and to cleanse.
Instructions:
Get a glass bottle
Fill it with any type of water.
Leave the bottle with water out in the sunlight or shade (indirect sunlight) during any time of day and for your preferred amount of time.

This post is not even close to complete but I intend to continue expanding it as often as possible
- poetry (or art of any kind)
- self care in his name!
- a dedicated candle dressed with herbs that are associated with Him
- prayer in the evening, trusting Him to sit by your side until you fall asleep
- prayer in the morning for a good outlook on the day
- music! playing music, writing music, listening to music,…
- therapy
- taking your meds
- sharing a drink with Him (coffee, tea, wine, anything)
- shadow work!!!
- watching the sunrise
- any kind of magic in His name
- divination
- trying out new things and getting out of your comfort zone
- human rights activism
- focusing on yourself
- questioning authority and standing up for yourself
- enlightenment, learning and pursuing the arts
- studying philosophy
- befriending your local neighbourhood crows
- getting Him scented candles that smell like His associated herbs
- making Him a Pinterest board
- making a playlist with songs that remind you of Him
- learning how to properly ward and protect yourself (magically)
- dedicating a piece of jewellery to Him (and asking Him to bless it)
- making a journal for Him (digital or analog) with prayers, tarot spreads, offerings and information about Him (I recommend this for every deity, honestly it’s really useful and a great way of showing devotion)
- learning more about Him and common misconceptions associated with Him (especially in Christianity)
- wearing clothes that radiate His energy and make you feel confident
In the end, any offerings you give Him are valid and will be appreciated, as long as you put some thought into it. Don’t worry if you can’t give Him the things you’d like to give Him, He will accept anything that comes from a place of love and devotion.
I also posted that in my witchy discord server! inv: https://discord.gg/N57k5YKHcG
CHANNELING SPIRITS 101 Channeling spirits is one of the most fun, interesting and complex things to do in witchcraft. A lot of you might have done that already when talking with you deities, but this is a guide that will focus more on the general things.
Before we begin with the guide, I want to list some REALLY IMPORTANT THINGS YOU MUST READ BEFORE TRYING ANY OF THIS.
1. Always respect spirits.
Doesn't matter if it's a random one, or your own spirit guide, always approach them with respect. Don't worry, intrusive thoughts don't count, it's your intention that matters.
2. Your permission and boundaries hold power.
It's a good idea to NEVER trust a random spirit with your permission, especially if it's about something personal. You can and It's recommended to, to place boundaries. Let the spirits know your rules, state them so they don't do anything you don't want them to. Also respect their boundaries if they have any. If you aren't comfortable with that, just say goodbye.
3. Channeling drains your energy. Don't overdo it, ground yourself before and after and make sure you are feeling okay.
Be cautious with how much you do it, make sure you don't force yourself while you're tired or anything.
4. Be protected.
It's a good idea to ALWAYS have protection on you, but you should do additional/temporary protection. Spirits cannot harm you at all if you're protected, so you have nothing to worry about if you are!
Pretty much everything. You can speak to your ancestors, random positive spirits around you or you can call upon any deity/god. (If you're a reality shifter, you can also channel people from your DR.)
1. Cast a circle, do your protection and ground yourself.
You don't have to do that when speaking to deities, but it's a good idea overall to have some sort of protection.
2. Invoke the entity you want to speak to. Hold your cards/pendulum/other divination tool, invoke the spirit! "I invite in any positive and helpful entity here to speak to me through [divination tool.]" is a good way to go. Make sure to focus, be clear with your intentions and you should feel when it's ready.
3. Ask your questions. Speak with them. If you use tarot cards, just ask the question normally while focusing on the entity you're speaking to. It's about intuition, you will know when to stop shuffling and what to look at. (NOTE: Tarot cards often tend to fall off when speaking to spirits especially, don't ignore these cards.)
4. When you're done, thank the spirit(s) and say your goodbyes! You can say "thanks for your messages, I release you and peace and light, goodbye." and you will be okay. Afterwards, cleanse your space and ground yourself again and you'll be done.
That's it, I hope that's helpful, make sure to ask me if you have any questions!!
