Working with Air
Tumblr media
Welcome to the third part of my elemental series! Today we will explore some aspects of working with air like offerings, devotional activities, common lessons, aspects, and more! With all that said lets get started!
To preface: I am a devotee to water itself, I am a west witch practioner which means I work within the domain of water, the past, divination, and psyche! I also am a general elemental practioner and have experience working with all of the elements and their aspects!
What is working with air like?
While looking at verified gnosis and cultural nuance some things remain familiar, things like air being both stagnant and rushing, life giving, and more! It is a major backbone (Much like all the elements are for each other) in the way that all organisms that preform aerobic respiration (Air breathing) need oxygen, air, and a form of atmosphere including water based animals. Air does not have a concept of gender (same with all the elements), however you can always ask as a bonding opportunity or follow a cultural addition that may apply pronouns to an element.
In general, air is primordial, but it is considered one of the youngest of the elements mainly because magma, water, and a form of earth had existed before O2, and an actual atmosphere. With that in mind, the air ended up facilitating a lot of growth here on earth, and from there air has many aspects! Air has tempest, dead air, atmosphere, wind, and breath! There are plenty of types of air spirits like syliphs, Sylphons, Spirulites, and more.
Some people work with wind, air anomaly's like tornados and wind storms, and breathwork. Wind and breath teaches more gentle and peaceful lessons about how to take a step back and take a moment for yourself. Someone who works with tempest might receive more lessons relating to coming into your own power and growing a backbone. Each aspect will have different lessons and personality traits, but each of them still follow the same lessons of balance between motion and pause, and even speaking.
In your relationship you may be called to breath work, using feathers, and more that we will be discussing a bit later, however air is will see us like any other animal, and is more apprehensive to engage in a conversation so practioners may have to call out to it first. UPG: Air is really rushing and sometimes can be overwhelming, and we have had many wonderful conversations relating to hard work, taking things as they come, and not falling into unhealthy stagnation. Air has not been very direct and tends to come as needed into my space and isnt an omnipresent force! In general I have needed to call on it first for information or advice, it is also quite stoic and serious when needed but also upbeat and kind when needed.
Finally, air does have some birth connotations, but they are directly indicative of the relationships it has with other elements. Air cannot do its job in a vacuum like space until some level of atmosphere is established. However 'air' can mean different things to different people, and in a way taking a first breath is life!
What are common offerings?
People tend to keep an altar to air near doorways, windows, and living rooms because of the rush of energy as people walk through doors, the energy of change from windows, and more! historically a lot of air honoring comes from within like being outdoors, having windows open, and doing breath work in a special place because of the motion you can feel from the air.
In air practices there are heavy emphasis on working and action! this comes from most of air needing to be moved to be felt, as often times we dont notice when we are breathing or walking through the precious gas. Moving air like with breath, feathers, and fans can be really helpful.
Some common practices include meditation and breath work, energy motion, dance, song, using feathers, fans, and incense scrying are all really common aspects of work! Another aspect is action, doing divination with clouds, the sky, and smoke is helpful, and then another thing is storm chasing, tracking the weather, and observing the atmosphere can also be really good forms of connection.
What are some correspondences?
Crystals - Amethyst, Angel Aura Quartz, Angelite, Celestite, Clear Quartz, Danburite, Flourite, Green Adventurine, Howlite, Kyanite, Labradorite, Rainbow obsidian

Looking for a way to incorporate more of the element of Air in your Craft? Consider meditating!!
One way of meditating is keeping focus on your breath for an extended period of time. What better way to honor Air than to consiously welcome it when it enters your body?
If you want a real easy minor spell: ask the air in your lungs to bring you energy/ calm/ joy/ gratitude!

I'm gonna be honest I don't like money in witchcraft. Herbs corresponding with money and gaining money is weird to me. Crystals that "make you rich" give me the ick.
I'm not saying it's not real, most human concepts (like money) are things that magic can totally affect. I just hate it. I hate that people have to rely on witchcraft to be slightly more financially stable. I hate the concept of conflating something so horribly misused, overprioritized, and utilized to ruin peoples lives with something so beautiful, deeply human, and deeply natural.
I know that magic can be applied to nearly any aspect of life, modern life included. Fuck capitalism i guess

🔮 Elemental Witch🔮 
//don’t claim it as your own and/or repost it on other platforms// An Elemental Witch is a practitioner who deeply connects with and harnesses the energies of the natural elements - Earth, Air, Fire, and Water - in their magical and spiritual practices. From a perspective deeply rooted in nature, the Elemental Witch views the world as a tapestry of interconnected energies, each element holding its own unique power and symbolism.
Here's a breakdown of how an Elemental Witch interacts with the elements and their perspective on life:
Earth: The Elemental Witch reveres the grounding and nurturing energy of the Earth. They work with crystals, herbs, and natural materials to connect with the stability and abundance of the Earth element. They honor the cycles of nature and find strength in the deep-rooted wisdom of the earth.
Air: The Elemental Witch embraces the element of Air, representing intellect, communication, and clarity. They connect with the winds, use visualization techniques, and work with feathers or incense to invoke the expansive and transformative qualities of the Air element.
Fire: The Elemental Witch harnesses the passionate and transformative energy of Fire. They work with candle magic, perform rituals under the light of the flames, and embrace the power of creativity, inspiration, and courage that the Fire element embodies.
Water: The Elemental Witch honors the emotional depth and intuition of the Water element. They connect with bodies of water, use water in their rituals, and attune to the ebb and flow of emotions and spiritual insights that the element of Water represents.
From the Elemental Witch's perspective, life is a dance of interconnected energies, and they seek to harmonize with the natural world to bring balance and transformation into their lives. They see themselves as stewards of the elements, working in harmony with nature to manifest their intentions and honor the cycles of creation and destruction.
In their magical practice, the Elemental Witch aligns with the energies of the elements to manifest their desires, gain wisdom, and bring healing and balance to themselves and the world around them. They view the elements as allies and draw upon their energies to create change, find inspiration, and deepen their spiritual connection.
Overall, the Elemental Witch lives their life attuned to the rhythms of nature, finding beauty, strength, and guidance in the elemental forces that shape the world. Their perspective on life is one of reverence, connection, and co-creation with the natural elements, seeking to weave their magic in harmony with the earth, air, fire, and water.

A Baby Witch's First Grimoire
Grimoire Entry 13 - Marijuana in Witchcraft
Tumblr media
Disclaimer: This blog post is intended for readers ages 21 and older, or 18 and older with a medical marijuana card. I do not condone the misuse of marijuana by anyone.
My history with marijuana
Back in early 2020, about a few months before June, I started to smoke marijuana for medicinal purposes. I had already been practicing magic for 4 years at this point. I had no idea what I was doing and had no structure for my craft. I started smoking once a night and occasionally would feel compelled to light a candle. Over time I started to notice myself performing magic when I was high. I realized that this really helped me to tap into my higher self and made my intent much stronger. Now that I'm older and wiser I've learned many other uses for marijuana that I had never even considered beforehand.
What are some uses of marijuana in witchcraft?
Cleansing
Divination
Blessing
Charging
Connecting with your higher self
Smoke blends
Spell writing
How to use marijuana in witchcraft
1. Cleansing yourself:
Take 3-5, 3 second hits from your cart or bong and visualize the smoke carrying away the negativity. If you're a heavyweight take 5-10, 3 second hits from your cart or bong. If you're a lightweight take 2, 3 second hits from your cart or bong.
2. Cleansing your space:
Start by standing at the entrance of your space, the area you walk through to enter and exit the space, and take a 3 second hit from your cart or bong. Exhale the smoke and visualize it clearing any negative energy. Move in a clockwise manner around the corners of the space, taking a 3 second hit for each corner.
3. Cleansing & charging an item:
Take the item you want to cleanse and charge. Clear the item of any dirt or dust that has collected on it. Take a 5 second hit from your cart or bong and exhale the smoke across the item you want to cleanse. Take a 3 second hit from your cart or bong and exhale over the item again to charge it.
4. Connecting with your higher self and writing spells:
Smoke until you feel a slight tingling sensation, or until you're high but still functional. Find a quiet place where you won't be disturbed and sit in a comfortable position. Allow yourself to meditate on the sensations you feel and all of your senses. Allow yourself to really focus on each one. When the time feels right begin writing down any spells that come to mind.
5. Create a smoke blend and use it for divination
Make a smoke blend that is 2 parts marijuana, 1 part intention herb, and 1/2 part aromatic herb from the list of smokable herbs listed below. Call upon your deity of choice and smoke in their name. Follow the method outlined in method 4 to connect with your higher self. Allow your divine self to commune with your deity of choice. Make sure you thank them when you're done.
Smokeable Herbs:
Lavender* - Good for healing, relaxation, and sleep
Rose Petals* - For love and beauty
Damiana - Increases the calming and relaxing effects of weed, used for lust and passionate love
Mullein - Communication with spirits and protecting oneself from evil spirits
Blue Lotus Petals* - Increases the calming and relaxing effects of weed, used for lunar magic, divination, and connection with deities
Wormwood and Mugwort - Used for divination, protection, and psychic power. (Do not smoke Mugwort if you're on birth control or are pregnant)
Mint* and Peppermint* - Used for good luck, money, energy, love, protection, and clearing negativity
Cloves* - Used to clear negative energy, attract money, stop gossip
Red Raspberry Leaves - Used to ease symptoms of PMS, offers protection, and love
Catnip - Relieves period cramps
Motherwort - Induces astral travel, channeling, increases psychic awareness, and eases anxiety
* - Aromatic Herb

I believe in incorporating the plants that live and grow around you into your spiritual practice and common Lilac is prevalent in my neighborhood. During spring it’s incredibly fragrant and I love to harvest the wood and blossoms to make spiritual oils and more. I believe in it comes in a variety of different colors, but I’ll be focusing on its purple and white aspects.
Common Lilac
Gender: Feminine & Masculine
Planet: Venus & Mars
Element: Water & Air
Zodiac: Gemini
Metaphysical powers: Spring, renewal, growth, exorcism, banishing, protection, playfulness, good fortune & misfortune, flirtation, romance, attraction, cognition, memory, wisdom, divination, illusions, pleasure
Lilac wood is commonly used to enhance memory, concentration and more due to its air like properties. This wood is excellent for wands and is also said to be a great offering to forest spirits.
Allegedly, according to several sources the sprigs are used in Russia to imbue children with luck and wisdom. In the UK, in a small localized part of England it was believed to be bad luck to bring white lilacs into the house, but finding one with five petals was considered lucky. The purple and red varieties were less feared but were excluded from house decor as bringers of misfortune.
Since the flowers only bloom for a short period, just a couple of weeks depending on where you live, you only get a brief period of time to harvest, the fragrant blossoms. They typically appear between Beltane & Litha, but often can start budding in late spring in April. This is why they are also associated with spring, renewal, growth and perseverance since they also have the ability to push and penetrate through harsh an heavy winter energies. They’re great for initiating and facilitating energetic breakthroughs and new growth.
In these fairly modern times, they are used for banishing negative energy, ghosts, ghouls and other assorted haunts, specifically the purple variety. They are also considered a romantic sort of flower, that inspires flirtation, playfulness, summer flings/love and short attractions. It may not bring you a marriage proposal but it does bring a fun, playful energy that’s good to incorporate in glamours and love work & it can even defend you from the evil eye.
Could you see yourself incorporating Lilacs into your spiritual practice ?

Advice for the signs based on which element dominates your chart 🔥🌍💧💨
i was meditating and recieved great insight into the thought process of some signs through the literal embodiments of their element.
Earth signs: are grounded and practical but they can also easily get stuck literally or mentally in certain thought processes, because just like the earth it takes a lot to get them to actually move or change, like earthquakes or mudslides or even Pangea just over long periods of time, or sometimes it just needs a comet to come in and completely change the way they work or think, they need to remember that they cannot let themselves become stagnant and know that though it takes great effort to change--especially the way they think, they have the hands to mold who they wish to become.
Fire signs: ever changing, growing and always going towards what brings them joy or enlightenment, can feel like they over power a space and are lonely in their growth, but free in their dance to learn the balance between destruction and creation and what it means for them, to keep finding a light or to be their own, they are centered and sure of what they want but their unpredictable way of moving and changing can be jarring to others, while others might fear them because of their self assuredness they need to remember their center of good and come from a place of warmth, you can be your own light, but don't let your self destructiveness take over
Air signs: free flowing, goes where the wind takes them, sometimes not being able to put action into their own lives but other times being lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time, but they can get sucked into their own heads lost in thought and unsure of where they're going, Air signs abstract patterns are what keeps them excited but can make them lonely, they need to flow with life while knowing which direction they're going, and to let others into their lives and not let the people they like slip from their grasp from being too carried away with other things, sometimes you need someone to keep you grounded, it's okay to need others
Water signs: can sometimes fall too deep into their emotions, accidently consuming themselves in their own waves or the ripples created by others, can turn themselves into the most fearsome tsunami rather than remembering the calm waters they can have, always absorbing other waters, you need to center your emotions within yourself and remember that you are a creature of growth, ever changing, some days you will feel like a smooth sailing river and other days will feel like thrashing rain, and you need to center yourself and remember that that is okay

Sylphs and the Air Kingdom.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
We go onto the elementals of Air! The Sylphs!
I don't know honestly what people think of the air elements, and the air elementals but they're anything but the gentle creatures they are. In truth the Air kingdom is more about the open heart and gentle approach to not get overwhelmed. If there's anything that can sum up the whole essence of the air kingdom is that.... It is Refinement. To Quote Vimalananda
"Most Westerners today believe that all their desires, and their sexual desires in particular, should be gratified immediately. But there is nothing speedy about refinement; it takes time and restraint. Refinement occurs automatically in all aspects of life, and especially in sex and in spirituality, if you just slow down. Westerners think the spiritual urge can be gratified in the same way that they gratify their sex urges. No wonder that most of them end up with fake gurus.”
If I already put the main idea is that of REFINEMENT. Then that means I should build on that with certain aspects of this refinement that bring that refinement, I would call them, Appeasement, Detachment, Slowing Down, and Service. I will preface, very explicitly that all work with Sylphs and Air elementals is better to be done through an intercessor, angel, god, etc and whatever else you take as a guiding and protective spirit instead of dealing with them directly.
Appeasing/Praying For Spirits of Air
I feel uncomfortable to even call it appeasing because these spirits usually are full of wisdom and light but often tend to be easily slighted or easily fickle if we are not careful with them. Do I mean that ALL sylphs are fickle or easily offended? of course not but the general flightiness of their elements can make them jump from one thing to another, to have that excessive force without grounding. Don't you find sometime when you get in argument to feel like you're "flying in rage" or flying heedlessly into the situation. That's all there's to it, pray for the spirits because if you die then who will pray for you? who would give you light and stability if you don't give it to them.
Detachment and Slowing Down
The best way to attain the detachment from the rushing winds and tempest is simply to slow down. If you're rushing through the prayer then you will get overwhelmed with it, if you rush through your prayer, exercises, and meditation then you will be rushed by it. If we remember the Undine's post then we can see the same reflective nature of spirits and that they often reflect our tendencies and behaviorism. If we come to the spirits rushing them like a tornado then the air element aspect of practice will start rushing us and pushing us like a tornado and we might want to slow down and take a breather. Even in Writing, in talking, in playing, in working, in praying, in sleeping, in doing your day to day life. Yes, the clock is ticking but the faster you go the more stuck you get. I am not advising people to like detach themselves emotionally or intellectually and become jaded but more of slowing down, so you can have that *space* between you and your life and not get overwhelmed.
Service
Service here implies serving someone something of value, that aspect is pretty weird to think of but when we take the time not to think about ourselves but to think of other we will find a great deal of blessings coming our way. If there's anything that Air elemental can teach you is that humbling presence when you walk out of water and Earth and see the sky above you. People can overlook how humbling the firmament look like, literally when you look at the Sky and see the great expanding heaven above you then you can't say or do anything but be in awe of the greatness of the world. What can we serve? That's a question for you to answer honestly, but that's an essential point I would like to emphasis in the Air. Serving elevates more than just being "here", there's a lot more to just grabbing stuff forcefully and grace plays a huge role in this. Let the Ray of Thine Intelligence and the warmth of Thy Love penetrate even unto us; then that which is volatile shall be fixed, the shadow shall be a body, the Spirit of Air shall be a soul, the dream shall be a thought. And no longer shall we be swept away by the Tempest, but we shall hold the bridles of the Winged Steeds of Dawn, and we shall direct the course of the Evening Breeze to fly before Thee.
Until Next time, with the Fire that doesn't lie. PS: my friend, @witches-bottle is doing a series on elemental work on a faster pace than me, I recommend you go check them out :D

Working with Earth
Tumblr media
Welcome to the fourth part of my elemental series! Today we will explore some aspects of working with earth like offerings, devotional activities, common lessons, aspects, and more! With all that said lets get started!
To preface: I am a devotee to water itself, I am a west witch practioner which means I work within the domain of water, the past, divination, and psyche! I also am a general elemental practioner and have experience working with all of the elements and their aspects!
What is working with Earth like?
Per usual: Things can depend on gnosis and the cultural lens we are looking at, however some things are consistent! In general earth is considered a constant force, something you can always tap into because you are always within it, on it, or in the case of astronauts near it. Earth represents consistency, slow but meaningful changes, and perseverance. Earth doesnt have a gender (same with all the elements) so asking during a working relationship can be a great way to bond! In general, Earth is primordial being the very first to be created even if it was just a ball of flames and liquid stone. Earth is considered but also not considered to be the first element to house life! People debate if it was water with the primordial soup or if it was earth giving water a space. However it is clear earth is a major life giver regardless. Earth has many aspects from rot, biomes, to just pure grounding energy, and working results change depending on who you are interacting with.
Some people work with earth as a whole, and we see this with the 'mother nature' archetype! This energy tends to be balanced, loving, and full of trial and error. Another aspect may be with specific biomes like navigating loneliness and introspection with desert, or managing your energy levels with rainforest! In any case, earth has major emphasis on love, grounding forces, but also cycles. All energy you use earth will eventually take back from the living. In this case, earths personality is not set in stone, often times changing and reflecting specific nuances. Another important thing to note is earth has frequently been described as both powerful but also sometimes a push over. We can observe this in mundane life with the invention of GMO's, pollution, etc. Earth allows us humans to do a lot of awful things to earths natural systems (evolution, balancing, etc) however Life will always find a way. It is important to remember you are an animal like any other deer, fish, or bear! Respect the earth as it speaks to you. Earth is a lot more direct because of the heavier role it plays on us. Patience is the best virtue when interacting with earth.
UPG: Earth is an extremely kind spirit to commune with, often happy to speak directly to all of its creatures. Earth usually presents 'slow burn' lessons usually being carried out over seasons, years, or decades. Working with earth is all about taking things one step at a time and learning indirectly not what it means to be human but what it means to be animal. Earth is all about establishing your place within the world, and encouraging you to leave this place better than you found it. Earth represents the present, pausing, and setting up long term goals no matter the weather or struggles we face. Its about unity and learning to love others with the short mark we leave on our home.
A thing to note is earth has a common 'womb' and 'mother' element often being nicknamed mother nature, dirt to life, etc! Most cultures observe earth to be the ultimate womb because of our history. Compared to all the elements earth has the heaviest association to life and birth, just as much as it does death and recycling. This has lead to the darker element of 'rot' being an aspect taking. Rotting and Decay takes time, much like all things.
What are common offerings?
Most people place altars to earth by windows, on the ground floor, and by living rooms! Earth tends to enjoy pretty much all offerings because it not only can represent advancement but also returning to roots. However: There is heavy emphasis on ethical offerings like with crystals, locally sourced items, and growth. So I would hold off leaving a red bull on the altar for now. Earth enjoys going place, so travel altars, smaller altars, or collapsible ones are a great choice! Dont feel limited to one point in your home
In earths case, there is heavy emphasis on longevity! So common offerings usually include dusting and cleaning, taking care of a plant, and things that may require repetition like preparing a meal or drinking water. In my water post I talk about net positive, neutral, and negative offerings and earth is no different. A lot of workings can be done outdoors in forests, prairies, and more. Make sure you are researching what hurts flora and fauna before you go out, for example: Leave the salt at home! Salt can hurt the salinity of the soil and hinder growth.
Some ideas include hosting forest or highway clean ups, going on hikes and nature walks, collecting flowers or just communing with nature, foraging, helping others, and getting crafty!
What are the correspondences?
Crystals - Smokey Quartz, Amazonite, Obsidian, Jasper, Malachite, Aragonite, Super Seven, Moldavite, Unakite, and Septarian Herbs - Dandelion root, Hawthorn, Linden, Oak, Red clover, wood sorrel, Rasberry Leaf, Food plants (nuts, berries, gourds, etc), Pacholi, Ivy, Fern Colors - Green, Brown, Gold Energy Centers - Root, Sacral Zodiacs - Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn Tools - Terracotta pots, Coins, Plants, Plates, Crafts Scents - Musk, Soil, Moss
