I spent a good chunk of today reacquainting myself with Witchblr.
It feels like a pale imitation of itself compared to my last visit, and I’m not sure why. Is it because I’ve changed? Or did these last couple of years just wreck everything and everyone in their path?
Or is the Great TikTok Migration to blame?
Oh, well. I guess I’ll stick around and see what happens. Maybe after some extended digging, I’ll find worthwhile treasures…
For the ancient Greeks, a fire made from privet [Ligustrum vulgare] opened the gates to the afterlife. To summon and speak with ghosts, burn wormwood on a bed of privet fire.

Sometimes, we may think that our magick is invalid, or that our deities don’t want to work with us anymore when we have depression. Altars get dusty, the air gets stale, and maybe you have quit working with magick all together, but still identify as a practicing witch.
Depression is an illness. If a professional runner fractured a leg, how could they continue to run while going through recovery? Can a witch continue to do mental work if their mental health is suffering? Think about it: witches are constantly using their brain to get themselves in a highly spiritual and magickal state. You cannot expect yourself to want to work with magick if getting out of bed is difficult on its own.
Understand that your deities are forgiving and understanding beings. Your magick will not dwindle. In fact, when you are sick, your deities and spirit guides will protect you and make sure nothing bad happens to you while you are sick. Don’t feel guilty for your depression. Depression is an illness, not a lack of dedication or general carelessness. I am going to give you advice on what kinds of spiritual work you can do while in a depressive episode.
Candle magick 🕯
🔮 Light a candle of your choice that symbolizes whatever you want to manifest (i.e yellow = confidence)
Aromatherapy 🧼
🔮 Different essential oils promote all different kinds of things. Lemon is uplifting and happy, while lavender is calming and promotes sleep.
Healing crystals 💎
🔮 All you need to do is set the intention. You can keep crystals by your bed, or you can set them up in a specific way for a spell or intention.
Chanting 🗣
🔮 You don’t need to get up for this one! You can even chant in your head.
Sleep meditation 💤
🔮 Sleep meditations are wonderful because of all of the insight you can get from intense dreaming. YouTube has great sleep meditation music.
Guided meditation 🧘🏻♂️ 🌀 🧘🏼♀️
🔮 This can be done in the bed as well. There are meditations on akashic records, spirit guides, past lives, you name it.
Be safe and know that it is okay to feel depressed sometimes. Make sure to get professional help if possible to help if these depressive episodes are chronic or prolonged. Know that the world loves you. Your deities love you. I love you. We love you.

Skacaga ona are guides and guardians for an individual’s life. Skacaga ona are emanations of ourselves split off at different moments which embody various aspects of our essence. We can interact with these pieces of ourselves for guidance and protection. Because they are formed from your essence, they may take on the shape and connection of past entities with which your kna has interacted before, but their forms will always be connected to their lessons and the essence of you they represent. These entities are usually related to animals or mythical creatures, and we’ll use that connection to portray their message or what they are connected to. These entities involuntarily exist in and from your mental and spiritual being and are part of you and separate from you. Because of this, they have great insight into your life and can be powerful conduits for you to interact with the world. Every individual has at least one Skacaga though they may not have made their presence known.
They are created at different parts of your life, and they will either be with you the entire time or only temporarily. Lifetime skacaga ona are skacaga ona that will stick with you throughout your whole life or will be created at one point, and we’ll continue until death. Temporary Skacaga ona are guides that will show up from time to time in your life and will only stick with you for a short time.
Skacaga ona will usually come into your life to teach you a lesson and leave once the task is learned. They will come to you in times of great need, dire situations, or when you must learn a life lesson and will last with you tell that time is complete. A lot of the time, they may give you a message in meditation or your dreams. They will try to teach you everything they think you need to know and try to do it in the best manner for you when you are ready to learn it. These guides will help you problem solve and help you work through certain situations to better yourself. They are a lot like good friends that you can always count on for assistance and will help you achieve a particular desire or outcome. The practitioner will usually call on these guides to ask for their help in certain situations, but the guide can always help without being asked. These guides can be called upon when you need healing and may even be short-term guides that pop in to heal you when you are injured. Often, these guides also take the form of animals to heal you using the kna of that animal. They may also help you heal others if you ask them to and can be powerful allies in channeling healing kna. These guides will usually defend you from threats and keep you out of harm’s way. This entity will also protect you when you open yourself up to others’ kna and keep away other entities you do not want to interact with. They will also cover the connection of entities you’re communicating with during spiritual communication. These guides may also tell you how to defend yourself and will keep watch over you. Skacaga ona inspires and motivates practitioners to create and get you to make and create new things. They will try to be your muse, can inspire arts, and can help clear artist block.
Skacaga ona of the shadows:
Skacaga ona of the shadows are guides that challenge you to face the hidden parts of yourself that you don’t usually deal with. This usually makes you deal with fears, insecurities, and remote parts of your sub-conscience, That you may have locked away. These guides may also take forms that you fear or are uncomfortable around to show that they are the shadow guide. They will do all of this to allow you to better yourself and are a manifestation of your shadow side.
Ways of communicating with your Skacaga ona:
There are many ways to communicate with your guides to build bonds and gain insight from them. Individuals and their Skacaga ona can have different preferences for how they would like to communicate. Because of this finding, the right communication method will allow you to communicate more effectively. There are three primary ways to communicate with Skacaga ona: divination, Vaskaknaova, and dreams. You can get their attention by asking aloud for them to appear to you before you dream, divination, or Vaskaknaova. Doing this will call them to appear.
