How to Make a Cleansing Spray for Beginner Witches

Ingredients:

spray bottle filled with tap/rain water (avoid distilled water for best results)

a full moon

essential oils of your choosing (be sure to pick ones you really enjoy, ones that make you feel happy and refreshed)

Procedure:

first, you have to obtain moonwater. the simplest way to do this is to fill your spray bottle with any type of water that is not distilled.

place the spray bottle outside or in a window on the night of a full moon, and be sure the moon’s light is not obstructed by anything such as trees or buildings.

let it sit overnight and retrieve it in the morning.

if you’d like to ensure the water is completely purified after being in the moon’s light, you can meditate over it for as long as you’d like until it has the energy you want.

once purified, add the essential oil(s) of your preference to the moonwater in the spray bottle. be sure to mix it into the water thoroughly.

after that, set your intent for the cleansing spray. what do you want it to do for you? how do you want it to help? the more specific the better!

when you have your intent, meditate on it. focus on it and see it clearly within your spray bottle. this step will serve to charge the purified moonwater so it will be more effective when you spray it.

The Witchy Apps I Use:

Seen a few of these posts so I figured I'd share as well! I use these for reference mostly, and personally prefer to do my practice irl. All are free!

Labyrinthos- this is a tarot app mostly, though it also has some astronomy info. I wouldn't recommend it if you're just starting with tarot, because the descriptions are over simplified and lacking. It does have a "learn" feature that can help you memorize/learn the basics though and for that it's pretty good! I use this to save tarot spread layouts that I use with my cards irl. It let's you create your own custom spreads and save them.

Co-Star- an astronomy/horoscope app. I love it because it does your birth chart for you in an easy to understand format and you can go back and reference it quick if you need it! But the descriptions of what everything in the chart means is also lacking and waay oversimplified here too, and none of the "aspects" are included. It'll do "daily horoscopes" but it won't have info on why/how it concluded that information based on your birth chart.

Moon phase calendar- a must for me! Always gotta know what the moon is doin. It has a lot of detail, including the percentage of visibility and rise/set times.

Make it rain- rain/thunderstorm sounds for meditation and practice

PictureThis- this is my favorite free plant identification app, and I'm pretty picky lol

Herbs dictionary- this is purely scientific information on an insane number of herbs, with medical uses as well. No magical uses listed. Again, this is for quick reference!!. If I'M personally using an herb for medicinal purposes it's because I'm familiar with it and know which are safe for me, don't just use whatever random herb some phone app says may help... Be safe.

Herbalist Grimoire- I think this one has about 70 herbs? And their magical correspondences. I love it for quick reference! It also explains how to use herbs (like making tinctures, oils, satchets, etc), a glossary of medical terms related to herbs, basics on how to grow herbs, and a brief history of herbs in witchcraft.

LunaDiary- a password protected night-mode diary with adjustable font and formatting and calming music. I use it for note taking, spells, ideas, some of which later goes into my grimoire. It has a back-up feature that uploads it to my Google drive. Plus the more notes you make, the more lunar phases and stars you get in the home page, so that's cute.

The occult library- exactly what it sounds like, it's got different witchcraft related books you can read for free.

Play Books- the basic Google play book app, I go to the android play store and download free books of interest related to my craft and philosophies I follow and read them here.

Improve intuition (called "intuition test" in the playstore for some reason tho)- this one has several choice-related activities that challenge your intuition skills! Big recommend.

Respire- a meditation app with different breathing exercises. I'm not a fan of hearing someone talk me through a guided meditation, so following a breathing exercise works much better for me. You can close your eyes and it'll make a ding sound to let you know when to breathe in, hold, and breathe out.

Down dog- an AMAZING free yoga app! It has restorative yoga, hatha, quick flow, and sun salutations in the free version. With different music genre to choose from that plays what seems like a genre radio. You can adjust the difficulty level, speed, and length. The instructors are great at guiding and the video to follow is aesthetically nice and it's all very easy to understand. Truly can't recommend this one enough.

I'm hoping to find an app that has a sheet to fill out for saving spells, like it would be great if it has the day/time, lunar phase, title, intent, tools, instructions, and outcomes to fill out. If you know of one, please let me know!

my practice and what i focus on:

lunar/cosmic witchcraft; mainly astrology, horoscopes, the zodiac, and things focusing on the celestial aspect of witchcraft.

divinity; somewhat similar to lunar witchcraft, incorporates different types of divination like scrying and tarot.

green witchcraft; mostly the botany/herbalism aspect. collecting and using herbs in my practice. potions, elixirs, essential oils, etc.

hashtags meaning:

🕊- personal updates, diary-like entries where i basically just ramble about my life.

🤍- witchy things such as potions, spells, divination and all kinds of things about my Craft.

🐇- advice and facts about witchy things like moon phases, information about witchcraft topics (wheel of the year, different types of magick, etc), basically all my tips and tricks to hopefully improve your practice!

🥡- my witchcraft hot takes! a way to have conversations and debates about controversial topics in the witchcraft community.

Moon Phases and Their Meaning

The moon is an important part of witchcraft, the phase of the moon has its own spiritual meaning and practices that should be performed during that phase. This isn’t a fixed rule, but it gives your magick a little boost that it may need to come into fruition. Being in tune with the moon makes us stronger.

Checking the moon daily is a great way to keep track of the moon phases, along with having a moon calendar in your phone. I also track the sun on my phone, but that isn’t necessary, it’s my personal preference.

New Moon 🌑

The new moon is a time of new beginnings and setting intentions. Some use this as a time of contemplation and self reflection, but this can also be done in later moon phases.

Waxing Crescent 🌒

This is the official moon phase for setting intentions, but I always do it in the new moon. This can also be used as a time of action, to act on your intentions

First Quarter 🌓

The moon for making decisions is the first quarter moon, this is a great time to begin acting on your intentions if you haven’t yet.

Waxing Gibbous 🌔

This is a time to further refine your intention and fine tune it into exactly what you want, revisit your new moon and crescent work to do this accurately.

Full Moon 🌕

Full moon is a time of manifesting, sealing intentions, and release. Let go of your expectations and allow the universe to simply make it happen

Waning Gibbous 🌖

This is a moon phase to show gratitude for the universe, the people around you, yourself, and everything you care for. Gratitude is so important and is underrated in my opinion.

Last Quarter 🌗

The last quarter signifies forgiveness. What is still hurting you? What can you let go of? Remember that forgiveness isn’t for the person in question to feel better, it is only for you. Also remember that you do not have to forgive someone if you feel they do not deserve it.

Last Crescent 🌘

This moon phase is about surrendering. Hold gratitude in your heart and release what doesn’t serve you as you move into the darkness of the new moon. This is also a great time to reflect on yourself.

🌑 🌒 🌓 🌔 🌕 🌖 🌗 🌘 🌑
