Ya Tenéis Para Entreteneros, A Mi Se Me Da Bien, O Sale Por La Ventana, Según Días.

I’ve been doing a lot of things with beads lately, and I wanted to make something for my Hermes altar. So here’s a necklace I made, this one fits over my head too, so it’s actually wearable ʕ •ᴥ•ʔb⋆·₊˚☆

I used tiger’s eye beads, because I asscoiate it with luck and prosperity and Hermes is considered a bringer of good luck and fortune. I also made some of the tiger’s eye beads into the pupils of four eye charms with wire and string. 

The eyes are meant to represent Argos, the many-eyed giant that Hermes slew. They also represent an epithet of Hermes I’ve read about that I really like, which is Euskopos (Ευσκοπος), meaning watchful or keen-sighted. (There are also so many other epithets of his that I like a lot, but this one was easier to represent in this project.) 

I used some black agate beads too, mostly because I like how they brought some contrast to the whole look. The alternation actually kinda reminds me of the stripes of a bee, a very active and always-moving creature which reminds me of another one of his epithets, Poneomenos (Πονεομενος), which means busy one ｡⋆·₊˚ᕕ( ─ v ─)ᕗ

I also incorporated the number four in this necklace as much as I could, since that’s a symbol if his as well. With four eyes in total and four smaller beads in between the bigger ones. 

To finish it off and add more of a central point, I made a tassel out of black string, added some beads onto the top string and attatched it at the middle point with two eyes on each side. 

I am very pleased with the overall look of this necklace, I’m epsecially happy with how the eyes turned out since they were kinda fiddly to make. I terms of shape and how I built the necklace, I kinda just went with what I felt like and didn’t really base it off of much else. But yeah, I really like how it turned out! <|:^)

♉ 🌕 FULL BEAVER SUPER MOON IN TAURUS ! NOV. 14.2016 🌕 ♉

Reminder for my moon witches! With this moon phase, it’s the perfect time to perform any spells you might have been putting off or waiting to do!

this is full moon is the beaver moon:

For both the colonists and the Algonquin tribes, this was the time to set beaver traps before the swamps froze, to ensure a supply of warm winter furs. (x) Similarly, now is a good time to cast spells that prepare you for the oncoming winter, and the new year!

it is also a super moon! that means:

Supermoons, also called perigee moons, are when the moon is closer to earth than usual, and appears 14% larger in the sky and up to 30% brighter. This one will be the closest we’ve had in 69 years! Supermoons are known to bring the largest tides of the year, the moon’s gravitational pull creating more variation between tides. 

the full moon is good for:

🌕 charging/cleansing crystals and items 🌕 healing 🌕 love magic 🌕 banishing 🌕 clarity

because it’s in Taurus, it’s also good for:

♉ love ♉ self-love ♉ leadership ♉ beauty and confidence spells ♉ glamours ♉ motivation and achievement

super moons are good for:

🌛 sea magic 🌛 tidal magic 🌛 spells that require more power

Series of Unfortunate Events curse

-Make a witches ladder and tie it to your target however you’d like (hair, name, etc)

-Tie in items that relate to unlucky things 

used up travel toothpaste-> they never seem to have toothpaste when they need it

a key with a ‘?’ drawn in sharpie-> you’re gonna be late to work, douche

empty battery-> they’re always just too tired to really get any work done

loose pieces of yarn-> so they always have that one strand of hair tickling their arm

a pushpin-> step on something sharp, asshole

a ripped piece of paper with the words “REALLY IMPORTANT THING”->so they always forget that one really important thing

an empty toilet roll-> every. single. time.

broken birthday candle->nobody remembers their birthday

Charge that sucker with your annoyed motherfucking energy and swirl some fucking smoke on it with a few spritzes of cayenne water for good measure. 

Now stuff it in an old sock and forget about it. Or hang it up. You do you.

Easy Blessing Candles Put tea light candles on a stove top (electric works best because it’s a flatter surface than gas stoves) on low heat. Melt the wax and then dash with herbs of choice. Then let them sit at room temperature to harden. 

Green witch tip!

Use recycled plastic containers for your baby plants. 🌱🤘🏼

🍀 Oxalis in Magic! 🍀

🌱 Oxalis is a very common plant, and a great natural resource for beginning witches because of that!

🌱 Oxalis is bound to Venus and Earth, love and home respectively. This makes the plant perfect for home protection and similar spells home oriented.

🌱 They are also commonly mistaken for clovers! Which makes them great for glamours, they are able to masquerade as something other than themself without trying. The glamour can be made for love especially, because of the ties to Venus mentioned earlier.

🌱 They can be used for luck, not only because of their looks relating to clovers, but because of their own lucky and abundant properties. Use in money and wealth spells for abundance and prosperity, as well as luck spells! 

🌱 These plants spread deep roots, which means they can help you with grounding. They are good to eat so consider eating some and grounding yourself before big magical endeavors!

🍀Overall we can see that Oxalis is a very versatile plant, used for love, luck, home, abundance, grounding, glamours. So go out and collect some!🍀

Happy Witching!✨

DIY All Purpose Cleaner Recipe

I’ve been using this recipe for a while now and there’s no use in having a recipe unless you plan on sharing. I use this recipe to clean any surface in our apartment that isn’t glass. 

-SUPPLIES-

-Bottle w/ Spray Top: I use a glass bottle that I bought from Amazon, but if you already have a bottle with a spray top, you can use that. 

-Borax or Baking Soda:  I use baking soda and I know more people have baking soda at home than Borax. **NOTE: Borax has been noted as unsafe to keep around animals and children so you have to make that decision for your household, but I’m letting you know this is good conscience**

-White vinegar:  That’s what’s in the glass apple juice bottle in the picture. We buy in bulk so I set some aside for immediate use and store the rest. 

-Castile Soap: I received this bottle as a gift, but this usually runs anywhere from $12-20 dollars depending on where you buy it. You use a small amount in this recipe so one bottle is going to last you for probably forever. 

-OPTIONAL SUPPLIES-

-Eucalyptus Oil: I keep eucalyptus oil around to help congestion/sinus infections, as a natural sunscreen, and as a surface germ killer in my bathroom and kitchen. 

-Tea Tree Oil: I keep tea tree oil on hand to soothe sunburns, in my skin routine, and a bunch of other things for around our apartment. It kills mold and is included in a lot of different DIY cleaning solution recipes. 

-RECIPE & INSTRUCTIONS-

1 teaspoon liquid Castile soap

1 teaspoon baking soda (or borax)

2 tablespoon white vinegar

2 cups hot water

OPTIONAL:

½ teaspoon eucalyptus oil

½ teaspoon tea tree oil

Mix all ingredients together in a spray bottle. This solution is good for any surface but glass. Just spray, scrub, and wipe off.
