PROTECT YOUR NECK ! Lyonessa’s Speedy Tutorial for Sharp Shootin

Protection, Uncrossing & Curse Freezin in a Traditional Hoodoo style.

A good practitioner eventually has the good common sense to be diplomatic and avoid a witch war. Avoiding drama, means avoiding headaches. It’s easy until it isn’t. Smoothing sailing isn’t always a guarantee in this world. Stay vigilant and well prepared.

Knowing how to protect, defend, uncross and cleanse yourself is a basic but crucial part of the Hoodoo practitioners spiritual hygiene.

Now this is a quick basic tutorial, to set you straight and keep you right.

⚔️ - KEEP YOUR HEAD SHARP & CULTIVATE COMMON SENSE

Hot heads, I’m talking to you. Emotional self control can save you from the stress of unnecessary witch battles with other practitioners. Be respectful, be mindful but take no shit. Try your best to avoid witch wars with other practitioners. I’ve seen these things be drawn out for years and it’s a huge colossal drain of energy and finances, usually over something very petty. Usually the person with most financial backing and resources wins but I’ve also seen clever maneuvering outweigh more powerful players.

It’s so easy to get caught up in drama in the spiritual community and have it spiral out of control. As your developing relationships, try to avoid warring and argumentative personality types so you don’t get caught in their crossfire. Committing all of your energy to constantly defending yourself from petty attacks is a waste of your energy. Cultivate social discernment & wisdom. This is not an invitation to live fearfully but smart. This is also something that takes time and practice.

On the other side of the spectrum, as you gain experience do your best to not become mad with power & trigger happy.

Constantly throwing jinxes, hexes or curses takes it’s toll mentally, energetically & physically, in some cases it can cause serious physical health problems further down the line. Don’t develop a god-complex. Stay grounded. Now I can’t tell you where to draw the line in the sand when it comes to certain situations, because every practitioner has their own code of ethics.

I’ll use myself as an example. On my spiritual journey I’ve acquired and invested in vast amounts knowledge and other resources which have made my defensive and offensive skills pretty extensive. Some of the things, rituals, and spirits that I have access to would be overkill depending on the circumstances. Coming into a massive powerful spiritual inheritance so early was hard.

I had to learn by trial and error to be more respectful of my own power. I was an overpowered baby witch shooting lightning bolts, while burning my own hands. Learning to practice emotional regulation allowed me to hone my skills better. I had to do shadow work and confront my traumas.

Cultivating a respectful working relationship between yourself, your own power and your emotions can save your life.

⚔️ - PRACTICE GOOD OFFENSE

A good practitioner will use various methods of divination to spiritually strategize before moving to attack. Attacking blindly without any knowledge, can cause all sorts of problems, especially if you’re dealing with someone who has strong spiritual or ancestral protections or a higher rank then you, worst case scenario you’re going up against a coven.

Excellent offense means doing recon. Good Reconnaisance skills means gathering information about your target, through various means of surveillance. Gather as much information about your enemies or targets resources, spiritual force or power, protection and activities. You should approach this like a military operation. Once you’ve got enough information, then you can strategize, prepare and do divination on what your next move should be.

This isn’t always easy either, depending on the skill of your target. People can cloak, shape-shift, even have guardian or monitoring spirits or ancestors to alert them. When in doubt, always use stealth. Always make sure to cloak and protect yourself when surveilling your target. It’s the most practical form of offensive protection. I’ve seen practitioners attack folks just for doing surveillance. Don’t get caught out here lacking, put on your damn armor.

All Power is intoxicating and life altering. Without self control you can seriously injure yourself and others. Ego often makes many people in this community think they are invincible, until they get humbled, tale as old as time. Respect your powers & yourself. Cultivate self control & discipline. Resist wild impulse. Build habits that protect you in the future.

Our plant allies are crucial to our practice and connection to spirit and the earth.

A Beginner's Guide: The Enchanting World of Candle Magic

Candle magic, a spellbinding practice deeply rooted in ancient traditions, offers a beautiful and accessible gateway into the mystical realm of the craft. Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or a curious novice, let's explore the basics of candle magic and how to harness the flame for your magical intentions. 🔥✨

Understanding Candle Magic:

Candle magic is a form of sympathetic magic, where the candle serves as a symbolic representation of the spellcaster's desires. The flame, wax, and even the color of the candle are all integral elements that contribute to the energy and success of the magical working.

Choosing the Right Candle:

Color Correspondences: Each color holds specific magical properties. Choose a candle color that aligns with your intention.

Red: Passion, love, energy.

Blue: Communication, healing, wisdom.

Green: Abundance, prosperity, growth.

White: Purity, protection, clarity.

Purple: Spirituality, psychic development, transformation.

Candle Shapes: Consider specialty candles with shapes corresponding to your intent (e.g., hearts for love, skulls for transformation).

Anointing and Dressing: Before lighting, anoint the candle with oils and dress it with herbs relevant to your spell for an added layer of intention.

Setting the Stage:

Cleansing and Charging: Clear the energy of your space and candles using methods like smudging or visualization. Charge the candle with your intention.

Sacred Space: Create a sacred space for your candle magic. This could be an altar adorned with meaningful symbols, crystals, and other items.

Candle Lighting Ritual:

Focus and Intent: Before lighting the candle, focus on your intention. Visualize the desired outcome with clarity and positivity.

Recite Incantations: Speak or chant incantations that amplify your intention. Craft your own or draw inspiration from existing spells.

Observing the Flame:

Flame Behavior: Pay attention to the behavior of the flame. A strong, steady flame signals a positive working, while flickering or erratic flames may indicate resistance or obstacles.

Candle Wax Interpretation: As the candle burns, observe the wax. Patterns, shapes, and residues can provide insights into the success of your spell.

Extinguishing the Candle:

Closing the Spell: Extinguish the candle with gratitude and a sense of closure. Acknowledge the energy you've released into the universe.

Dispose with Care: If the spell involves banishing or releasing, dispose of the remnants appropriately. Burying or scattering the wax can symbolize the dispersal of energy.

Common Candle Magic Spells:

Love Spell: Use a pink or red candle, anoint it with love oils, and visualize the love you desire while the candle burns.

Prosperity Spell: Choose a green candle, dress it with prosperity herbs, and focus on abundance and wealth during the ritual.

Protection Spell: Opt for a white candle, anoint it with protective oils, and envision a shield of light surrounding you.

Tips for Candle Magic:

Moon Phases: Align your candle magic with the phases of the moon for added energy. New moons for beginnings, full moons for culmination.

Consistency: Practice regularly to strengthen your connection with candle magic. The more you engage, the more attuned you become to the energies involved.

Keep a Journal: Document your candle magic experiences, including the colors used, incantations, and observed outcomes. Reflecting on your practice aids growth.

Embrace the flickering flame as a conduit of your magical intentions, and let the dance of light guide you on a mystical journey. Whether you're seeking love, prosperity, or protection, the enchantment of candle magic awaits, inviting you to illuminate the path of your desires. ✨🕯️🌙

Hoodoo Spell To Help Turn Back Negativity That Was Sent To You.

I wanna just say we all know how powerful magic can be in the right hands. Rather if it's Hoodoo, Vodou, Palo, real Witchcraft etc, in the right hands of the right person they all can be lethal.

Q. Can Any Practicer Do A Negative Spell? Yes, Any one can do a negative spell, but not all are affective. For your magic to work well and for you to get good results one must make a strong connection with the spirits and that takes time. It's a everyday thing that's why it's called a practice.

The Spell To Send Back Negative Work: Get yourself a small mirror and write your full name on the back then write Psalms 23 on the back of it also.

Flip it over on it's back so the the glass part is up. Sit a white candle (plain) on top of the glass and burn it. This should help to turn back anything negative that was sent to you.

Check out my other posts on using mirrors.

i'm not sure how many people will connect with this, but it's been on my mind . . .

if you're religious, imagine your f/o participating with you ♡

if you go somewhere like a church, synagogue, or temple, imagine them coming with you. meeting everyone for the first time, or greeting them like friends if they know each other already. maybe they hold your hand during service, read or sing along, light a candle, bow their head in prayer or contemplation.

if you tend to practice more at home, imagine them there with you in your daily practice. encouraging you to keep your altar tidy if you have one, asking questions to learn about your personal faith, helping you during rituals or prayer, even surprise you with presents like crystals or candles.

your f/o loves every part of you! and that includes your spiritual side! they feel honored that you would share something so personal with them. ♡

bonus : imagine it vice-versa as well! your f/o sharing their religion with you! they trust you wholeheartedly and want to be with you all the time! they want to involve you in every part of their life ♡

Did a protection and banishing negatively spell. Also had some amethyst and obsidian for banishing negativity and protection. Of course some salt as well. Used Palo Santo to cleanse my altar, myself, and my room too. I rolled my candles with some rose petals and Rue. It definitely all felt right. loved this ritual I did.

One question though: my black candle that stood for banishing my negativity, burned much faster than my white candle. Any witches have any thoughts on that?

Augusnippets Day 18 - Protective Caretaker - Ted Lasso

Jamie finds himself in hospital yet again and Keeley and Roy find out through a secondary source. Neither of them were called as Jamie's emergency contacts. So if it wasn't them ... then who was it?

Here on AO3 @augusnippets

Jamie was in hospital. Again. According to Jamie he had been helping out a neighbour and had fallen off a stepladder rescuing a kitten. Roy had no reason to not believe that tale of events but he just didn’t. Also according to Jamie, he was fine and didn’t need the ambulance that Shannon had called. Now that he absolutely didn't believe. "Why were we not called?" Keeley growled in a great Roy Kent impression at the poor doctor that choose that moment to come check on Jamie. 

"Keeley come off," Jamie groaned, arm drapped over his eyes. 

"No! I am his emergency contact and I should have been called as soon as he was admitted," Keeley continued to vent. 

"There's nothing wrong with me they didn't need to call," Jamie's groans turning more and more into whines. 

"Well there if it isn't our little bruised banana," Ted announced himself bursting into the room with Beard on his heels. 

"What are you fuckers doing here?" Roy frowned. 

"That's what I was trying to tell you. Mr Tartt here is at risk of a concussion from his fall and so needs to leave with someone to supervise him," the doctor interrupted the posturing contest. 

"Oo I'm very good at those. I have different voices to keep it fresh," Ted pointed at the doctor then Jamie who looked like he was in his own personal hell. 

"Which is why we called Jamie's emergency contact ..."

"Which is me." Everyone slowly turned to look at Beard with a varied tableau of surprise. “Imagine how I felt.”

The doctor fled with the promise of a prescription and discharge forms leaving them to try and work all this out.

“Jamie? What’s going on?” Keeley was immediately there, squatting down at Jamie’s bedside with a comforting hand on his hip rubbing little circles.

“Just tired,” Jamie groaned. “Can I go home?”

“We need to wait for the doctors with your prescription. So we can have this conversation now. Why the fuck were none of us called and Beard was?” Roy growled.

“Roy,” Keeley scolded, but Roy could tell her heart wasn’t in it and she wanted to know as well.

“I’m fine it’s just some bruising,” Jamie muttered.

“That wasn’t the question Tartt!”

“This is why,” Jamie shouted, wincing as he jostled the bruises on his cheek. “I knew that even the most minor of injuries you lot would be all up in my business and making it a problem and a big deal. I ain’t that badly hurt. I’ve been hurt way fucking worse. I just need to go home and sleep,” he vented, pointing between Roy, Keeley and Ted.

“So why Beard?” Ted asked quietly, the only one out of the three that did look somewhat scolded.

“I needed someone in Richmond that I could trust would come but wouldn’t care that I was hurt and would sign the discharge papers. None of you lot would have done that,” that one moment of heat seemed to be rapidly fading out of Jamie. Roy didn’t know if it was the pain of his injuries taking over or regret at this bullshit scheme.

“Of course we fucking wouldn’t you idiot,” Roy shouted back.

“Really not the time Roy,” Keeley sighed.

“And you thought I would,” Beard’s calm steady voice dragged them all back on track as he stepped forward to be at the foot of Jamie’s bed. He reached out and grabbed onto the plastic hand holds. It was near impossible to read Beard’s emotions on the best of days but now he was locked down tighter than Fort Knox.

“You’ve never been my biggest fan have you?” Jamie muttered, eyes locked onto Beard almost challenging him to disagree. “When I’m hurt it’s always an inconvenience, a problem you know. I didn’t want to be a hassle to people who actually care about me. I know I’m a lot so I put down someone who wouldn’t make this a big fuss about it. But now we’re all making this big fuss about it,” he sighed, resigned to his fate. Good, because they were not letting him slip away to go lick his wounds in private. That was never going to happen again.

“I’m sorry I’ve made you feel that way,” Beard broke the silence, causing all the eyes in the room to lock onto him in varying degrees of surprise. “I didn’t like you at first but I don’t think anyone did …”

“I mean …”

“Don’t lie Ted he was a fucking prick.”

“Thanks grandad, really smashing the making me feel better bit.”

“As I was saying,” Beard continued through the veiled threats, “however I did think that our relationship was improving and so am sorry you didn’t also see that.”

The surprised eyes then turned to Jamie like they were watching emotional tennis. All Jamie did was shrug, curling up into himself as much as he could despite being all one big bruise.

The doctor saved them from these emotional reveals going on for much longer. “His prescription can be filled at any pharmacy but I recommend the one downstairs on your way out. He needs to be regularly checked to make sure cognitive function doesn’t deteriorate …”

“I don’t think there’ll be anything left if his brain withers any further,” Roy mutters and grins when Jamie flips him off.

“… and rest is the best mediciene for the bruises,” he finished holding out the discharge forms to the room in general. Roy went to grab them but Beard snatched them out of the doctor’s hand before he could.

“I’m his emergency contact,” Beard stated, already signing it.

“Coach you really don’t …”

“I’m your emergency contact, you’re coming home with me,” Beard’s tone left no room for argument. And Jamie didn’t, he just looked bashfully down at the bedsheets. Roy and Keeley looked at each other and shrugged. Looks like Jamie was going home with Beard … that was not going to end well.
