Blessed Ostara! Even though I’m a bit sick and my sense of smell has vanished for five days, I needed to bake SOMETHING for the spring equinox!

This is an Italian Ostara braided bread. It was suppose to have regular sized dyed eggs in the center, but I didn’t have time to find a Easter egg kit so chocolate eggies seemed like the way to go! Looks like a cute, little nest. Baking has given me some peace and order during this chaotic time.

How are you spending Ostara? 🌿🌸🥚

For Mabon this year, I've made mulled wine:

1.5L dry red wine (healing, protection, emotion)

1 orange, sliced and peeled (love, luck, prosperity)

1 apple, cut into chunks (wisdom, knowledge, feminine power)

8 whole cloves, for each points of the wheel of the year (luck, prosperity, friendship)

3 cinnamon sticks, for the mother, maiden and crone (love, fire, passion)

4 whole star anise for the cardinal points (protection, guidance)

1/3 cup brandy (earth, love, masculinity)

Honey, to taste (sweetness, fertility, prosperity)

Add it all to a pot and warm, but don't boil. Best shared.

🔥glamour water🔥

this little spell uses the power of the elements and some herbs to enhance existing beauty and allure, and give you an air of fierce, “don’t screw with me” realness.

you’ll need:

◈ water collected during a rainstorm ◈ moon water ◈  honey ◈ thyme ◈ cloves ◈ heather leaves/flowers ◈ rose petals ◈ clover leaves

to make: ⚡ combine your moon and storm water into a container(i used a cork bottle, anything light can shine into will do). dilute the honey into the water. ⚡ add all of the herbs and flowers to the water. ⚡ leave the mixture out in the morning, and allow it to charge under both the sun and the moon for 24 hours before collecting it again for use

to use: use your finger or other method to dab the mixture onto your temples.  tip: if you’re someone who wears makeup, apply this before you put on primer/foundation to enchant your makeup with glamour. 

Happy witching, - Daisy.

When your lonely, visit the Kami(spirits) of the forest. I found company in the flowers and rocky road.

Turn an Unused Corner into a Meditation Station

It’s almost a year since I started on my witch journey. A few books and stones has turned into a lifetstyle, altars, and overflowing shelves in my room.

My sacred items were starting to mingle with my daily stuff and I could tell the energy mesh wasn’t good. Also, my expanding mind needed room to breath.

We have a spare bedroom that the roommates and I use for storage of random things like the air conditioner, vacuum, and boxes. Seeing as how my roommates never asked me and my husband about furnishing or decorating the common rooms, I took over a corner of this room as my own. They fear me, so I doubt I’ll have any qualms about it.

This was what I had already; a big cushion, salt lamp, fluffy stuff

Upgrades included; bookcase, floor lamp, coffee table, work lamp, woven rugs, fake grass, and fluffy rug. All from Ikea, cost was a little over $100.

Bottom shelf of the bookcase has my books, compendiums, tarot and oracle decks. Upper shelves hold my Hermes altar and Aphrodite altar. Top holds candles, incense, dirt from Bongathon, my cleansing jars, himalayan salt lamp, river stones from a different Bongathon

The coffee table is my work station for divination, setting up crystal grids, writing, crafting, or studying. The new home for my stones!

And under the coffee table is all my Moon Water

I’ll slowly add more art to the wall and will probably need another bookshelf soon! My bedroom now has a bunch of shelf space for my cosmetics and craft supplies. My personal space in my bedroom is the finance and prosperity quadrant when it comes to Feng Shui, so energy improvements are happening everywhere!

I hope you enjoyed the makeover pics, maybe it will inspire a few ✨
