Keeping Yourself Protected

Ways to provide protection from spiritual and physical beings:

Make a witches bottle: They provide you with protection against curses, hexes, and spells sent your way as well as to protect your property and possessions.  

Salt circle: A salt circle provides the person inside with protection from negative entities and demons. Line your window sills and door way entrances with salt to create an impenetrable barrier.      

Iron: Repels evil.Three iron nails driven into a doorway or window sill will block negativity from entering your home. Note: Iron repels Fae!

Plants: Some plants have protective properties. 

Ask your deity for protection

Mint leaves in your shoes protects you from curses

Put pepper in protection sachets to protect against magickal attacks.

Burn bay leaves to reverse curses

Scrawl your home and clothes with protective sigils

Quartz Crystals: Provides protection.

Visualization

Paint your front porch blue to ward off ghosts:They fear water so this may confuse them.

Hang an upside down horse shoe above your door: to ward off evil spirits.

Hang wind chimes around your home: To scare off bad spirits

Nazar or evil eye: Protects your home from bad luck.   

Rowan: Two branches from rowan trees bound together with red thread in the shape of a cross. It provides protection when hung above doorways, according to celtic traditions.

Arrowheads: Placed above your door will help keep burglars and unwanted guests out.

Cinnamon Sticks: Tied over the door will protect your home.

Rosemary wreath: A wreath of rosemary bound with green thread can provide your home with protection. Add other plants that correspond with protection as well. 

Ivy: Grown up your house provides protection,

Witchy Ways to Care for Yourself

Witchcraft does not, in any way, replace the medication, the therapy, or the doctors that you may need. Get proper care if you have any health problems!

Witchy things you can do to provide yourself with peace and spiritual care:

Cleanse and clean your space regularly.

Ground

Meditate

Sit down to reflect and think

Offer gratitude to any spirits, deities, elements, etc. that you work with.

Spend time in nature

Get some sleep to let yourself recharge and rest

Think positive thoughts as much as possible

Create a sigil that has a “healing”  “self care”  “positive thinking” meaning to scatter around you.

Create a positive chant to say to yourself when you need some positivity.

Create your own tea blend to calm and offer you comfort.

Get a plant that you connect with. Whenever you are feeling down care for it, whether you are watering it, fertilizing it, singing to it, or reciting poetry to it. Name it. Provide it with the happiness that you are lacking.  

Provide yourself with a playlist or soundtrack to play when you need to calm down and unwind.

Create your own daily rituals to help keep you grounded. 

Drink a cup of tea.

Send thanks and say good morning to the sun when you wake up and wish the moon goodnight before you fall asleep.  

Garden

Carry rose quartz, citrine, and tigers eye with you to boost your self esteem and self confidence. 

Take a moment to BREATH

Journal

Carry a crystal that you take favor to and feel familiar with.

Turn off all the electronics in your room. Lights, cellphone, laptop,ect. Light some candles and write in your grimoire or read a book.

Create a self care jar and add herbs and crystals with self-care type correspondences. Leave it somewhere that you can see it. Charge it with good intentions so whenever you look at it, it brings you a small bit of happiness. 

Look up at the stars.

Talk to the moon.

Take a long bath and add lavender to calm yourself. Maybe light some candles as well.

Connect and spend time with your tarot deck, familiar, magick tools, etc.

Make something magickal whether you cook or craft it. But let it come from the heart.

Do some yoga.

Exercise

Cloud watch

Do not forget to take your prescribed medication, it was prescribed to you for a reason.

May the moon light your path!
