♥️Instead of Tarot Cards,Use playing cards or a book

♥️Use a bracelet or a piece of beaded jewelry as a prayer rope

♥️Go outside and pick a Bouquet of Flowers for your Deity ♥️

Folk witch tip #2

Someone did you dirty but you don’t want to get down into the nitty-gritty? Instead of hexing or cursing, bless them.

Bless them to learn their lesson sooner rather than later. Trust me, life lessons hurt.

Ooooor, you can bless the people around them to see their true nature.

You’ll make them pay for sure ✨

Holy Mary, Mother of God,

Amen.

Bible magic and divination ♡

~Sleep with a bible under your pillow to avoid nightmares

~Keep bible open to David's psalm at the front door to keep roaming haints out

~To get an answer for a question to God, close your eyes and flip through the pages. Stop your finger at a verse that you feel God is drawing you to.

~Write down psalm 23 on a piece of paper to carry with you to protect from lightening, rheumatism, bad luck, and harm.

~Take the bible to a crossroad or outside on a windy day, let God blow the wind to a verse and read it.

~For arthritis or other ailments of the bones, take some lard or oil and rub it over the aching place while reciting Proverbs 16:24 or the Lord’s Prayer.

~For pain in the body, the place is rubbed “to the left”, while saying “Tame thou flesh and bone, like Christ in Paradise” seven times.

~Keep photos of loved ones in your bible to keep them safe and out of trouble.

My personal Alternative Hail Mary Prayer:

In Traditional Latin and English.

---english

Hail Mary, full of Grace.

Thy Devotees are with you.

Blessed art thou among Women, and Blessed is the fruit of your Womb.

Hail Mary, mother of all,

help us now,

and at the hour of our death,

Queen of Heaven guard us from harm.

----latin

Ave Maria, gratia plena, devotus tuus tecum .

Benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus fructus ventris tui.

Ave Maria, Mater omnium nostrum,

adiuva nos nunc

et in hora mortis nostrae.

Regina caeli, ab iniuria nos custodi.

Hope someone has benefited from this knowing you can *change traditional Catholic prayers to fit Paganism, Gnosticism or Folk Catholicism!*

I'd love if people reblogged and tagged this poll with their answer, their religious identity (if any), and the type of magic they practice! No judgement for any particular answer, just genuinely curious.

A Warning to new witches

Reading makes you smarter. But reading does not mean you are smart. This applies to those who read occult texts as well. Just because it is about magic and witchcraft, does not mean you are smart to read it. Be discerning of authors, publishers, and wording. You should not judge a book by its cover but you SHOULD judge a book by its title. be cautious of books using words like ____ Magic(k). The overuse of adjectives to describe types of witchcraft are purely used to make books attract crowds who follow trends. An example would be "Lunar Magick" which is a title to over 200+ books on amazon. They use these names to get your money for very little information. Most of these self published books are plagiarized or just watered down versions of actual grimoires with a historical basis. Be perceptive. And if you struggle to discern if a book will be good or not, ask me! I try to read the shitty throw away books just so I can help educate my mentees on what to NOT do. Know your enemies including bad authors. (Matt auryn is one of these bad authors. No matter how popular "psychic witch" is.

Behold, the Lamb of God,

Who cleanses this world of sin.

He who chose to receive a crown of thorns,

So that we may be crowned with his love.

He is beaten, he is whipped, he is crucified;

He is risen.

[appalachianhearthcraft]

We turn to you for protection,
