Emporiblog - Budget Witchcraft pt II

-
Hello all!! With the increasing cost of living, I feel that posts like this are needed more than ever, so here are some more Budget Witchcraft tips!!


I briefly touched on charity and thrift shops in part 1, which you can find here 👉🏻 Budget Witchcraft



Charity/Thrift shops are about to become your new best friend! Apart from herbs and maybe Crystals, you should be able to get pretty much everything you need for your craft! Here are some examples:


- Candles/Candle holders. Chances are you'll be able to find some candles and something decent to hold them in

- Books. You'd be surprised at what you can find in charity shops, but don't forget to cross reference!

- Statues/Figurines. If you do Deity/Entity work, you may be able to find a suitable representation/offerings, especially for flora and fauna entities

- Altar Cloths. You might not be able to find something that is specifically an Altar Cloth but, there's bound to be something like a table cloth that you can augment

- Metals. Materials like copper, brass and iron have uses within Witchcraft and there's bound to be something in a charity shop that's made of what your looking for

- Jars/Containers. You can never have too many jars and containers

- Note Books. You can never do enough research or make enough notes. You should be able to find a notebook or two to continue your journey or even make into a BOS or a Grimoire

- Bells. Witch bells (separate post incoming!) or just bells in general can be used to sound cleanse

- Mirrors. Mirrors can be made into Scrying tools, used for glamour magic and mirror shards can be used in Spells and rituals

- Jewelry. It's always worth a look to see if there's anything you need in this section, but remember to cleanse!



I think I've covered the basics! I would also recommend getting clothes from the charity shop as well, especially if you have small children, you know how fast they grow!


Blessings,

Hello all!! We're continuing with Sigils today with another Pictorial Method!! This method has similarities to our first pictorial method, however, this method revolves around the Lo Shu Grid . This grid was invented during the time of Chinese Emperor Yu and every row, vertical, diagonal and horizontal, all equal 15. So, let's get to the method..... Step 1 - Make the Lo Shu Grid The Lo Shu Grid is as follows 👇🏻 Step 2 - Your affirmation For the purposes of this, we're going to use: Good Fortune Step 3 - Letters and numbers grid As with our first pictorial method, we will be using the same number to letter grid 👇🏻 Step 4 - Get the numbers Good Fortune w ill become: 7 6 6 4 6 6 9 2 3 5 5 With this method, you can have repeating numbers as long as they aren't consecutive, so our final numbers are: 7 6 4 6 9 2 3 5   Step 5 - Draw your Sigil Good Fortune will become 👇🏻 It is recommended to put a circle at the beginning and en...

Ancestral Work (part 1 )

 Ancestral Communication and Work. Hi Guys, It's me again, as this is work that I have been actively doing, and Cat and I agreed that I would do this post for you. It seems to fit in well with the season. We have discussed this subject briefly in some other posts, such as Vivianite  (just use the search function and input ancestors or spirit work, and you will find the posts to read whichever ones shout at you, as there are too many mentions to put them in here). We discussed communication with spirits in a previous post but this is a lot more specific as it deals with our own flesh and blood. I do have a qualification in Ancestral Healing, so this is a precursor to any more in-depth posts that we may do in the future if you want them. The pic above is one I took recently when I felt the call to tend to the graves of my nan, and her mum, whose headstone is pictured above. As with a lot of practices, you can be as elaborate or as basic as you need.       ...
