Happy Thanksgiving, everybody. Blessings to you and your family this weekend.


THANKSGIVING HEARTH-BLESSING

A practical, grounded spell for warmth, peace, and calm during Thanksgiving.

---

​

Ingredients & What They Represent

• Candle (Fire) → warms the atmosphere & gives you a moment of focus
• Pinch of salt (Earth) → grounding, stability, steady emotions
• Wooden spoon (Earth) → physical anchor; carries the intention into the food
• Your dish / tea / whatever you're making (Water/Body) → carries the blessing into something everyone will share
• Your breath (Air) → clears tension & sets the mood in the space

Everything has a job. Nothing is random.

Timing

Do the spell when you first start cooking Thanksgiving morning.
If you’re not cooking, do it while making coffee or tea.
The stirring is the activation — that’s it.

---

​

Step 1: Light the Candle (Fire)

Place the candle somewhere safe in your kitchen and light it.
Fire = focus + warmth + “beginning the moment.”

Take one slow breath.
This sets your emotional tone for the rest of the spell.

---

​

Step 2: Stir Clockwise With Intention (Earth + Air)

As you stir your food clockwise, say:

“May this meal bring peace.
May this home hold warmth.
May every heart here rest in kindness today.”

If you're not cooking yet, you can stir the air with the wooden spoon.
Clockwise = building, increasing, warming the space.

The spoon = Earth → it grounds the intention.

---

​

Step 3: Add the Salt (Earth)

Salt is the stabilizer here.

Sprinkle a pinch into the dish (or onto the counter if you aren’t cooking yet) and say:

“Seasoned with safety, flavored with ease.”

Salt = Earth element → steadiness, calm, emotional grounding.
It anchors the blessing so it doesn’t float away into “hope” but settles into real feeling.

---

​

Step 4: Let It Settle (Air + Fire)

Let the candle burn a little while you move around your kitchen.

Your breath + the heat of the candle = Air + Fire working together
→ clearing tension and warming the energy of the space.

You don’t need to “believe” in anything supernatural.
You’re just using objects to help shape the emotional tone of the day.

---

​

Step 5: Close the Spell (Fire → Earth)

When your cooking is done, blow out the candle.

Blowing out the flame seals the moment:
Fire ends → Earth settles → blessing stays.

Carry on with your day.

---

​

This spell works because:

• Fire warms and focuses your attention
• Earth (salt, spoon) grounds stress and steadies emotions
• Air (breath, spoken words) clears tension
• Water (food, tea, liquids) carries comfort to everyone
• You’re setting the emotional tone of the home through intentional action

Is family getting to be a little stressful?

The Personal Boundary Rite

(For Holidays, Gatherings, and Family Fields)

Date Use: Waning Moon, Jupiter Day (Thanksgiving)

---

​

Purpose

A rite for holding shape in rooms that once softened or scattered it.
Used on days when the emotional field thickens—holidays, reunions, houses with old echoes.
This working reinforces personal autonomy, ensuring you do not match the room unless you choose to.

---

​

Underlying Mechanics (Notes to Self)

• Waning Moon contracts the field.
  This sharpens edges, making sovereignty easier to anchor.
• Jupiter Day diffuses tension but, during waning, encourages discernment, not expansion.
• Cold weather static can misfire symbolic work; grounding is required before ignition.
• Indoor EMF noise disrupts subtle or airy tools; keep the spell physical and minimal.
• LHP principle: No external sources of authority.
  All power arises from internal compression + collapse.

---

​

Compression Statement

Choose one:

• “My field is mine alone and centered.”
• “I am present without absorbing.”
• “I hold my shape in every room I enter.”

(Note: One statement only. Multiples split the vector.)

---

​

Tools

Earth Vector

A small stone, iron piece, or a discreet pinch of salt.
Reason: Earth hardens the boundary and holds the field steady under social pressure.

Fire Vector

One candle (tea light is fine).
Reason: Fire generates the ignition point for collapse. Minimal flame keeps Will focused, not scattered.

Ether Vector

Hand-to-sternum gesture + breath.
Reason: Ether delivers identity consolidation. Gesture serves as the collapse trigger.

No water. No incense. No diffusers.
Those blur the boundary.

---

​

Space

A quiet room before the gathering begins.
No circle. No container.
You are the container.

---

​

Ritual Sequence

1. Ground

Touch the stone, iron, or salt.
Exhale once.
Feel weight, not calm—weight is the anchor.

2. Light the candle

As flame steadies, speak your chosen compression once:

“My field is mine alone and centered.”

Do not repeat.
Repetition frays the edge of intention.

3. Boundary Compression Gesture

Hold your hand a few inches from your sternum, palm facing inward.
Inhale once.
On the exhale, press the palm gently to your chest.

This moment is the collapse—
the ritual’s spine compresses into identity.

4. Fix the Boundary

Place the stone (or salt/iron) beside the candle.
Say:

“My shape holds.”

Short. Clean. Final.

5. Extinguish the flame

Snuffer, fingers, or pinch.
Do not blow; breath disperses the boundary you just forged.

---

​

Closing

Place your hand on any solid surface—
table, counter, floor, stone.

Say:

“The work is closed.”

Closure seals the field and prevents drift.

---

​

After effects (Recorded Observations)

• Emotional pressure from others feels like it hits a surface, not a door.
• Conversation flows around you instead of through you.
• Old family roles lose their gravitational pull.
• Mood stays yours, not the room’s.
• Leaving the house feels clean, with no lingering residue.

The spell does not make you distant.
It makes you defined.

---

​

Optional Note

If tension rises mid-gathering, touch the stone in your pocket or press two fingers to the sternum and silently repeat:

“Shape holds.”

This re-engages the boundary line without re-casting.

Sigil for Insight & True Understanding

A quiet-working sigil meant to steady the mind and sharpen perception during magical study.
It helps the witch recognize what is useful, sense what is genuine, and understand the deeper pattern beneath what she reads or practices.

Designed for beginners and early-tier work, gentle but effective.

---

​

Purpose

To create a clear space within the mind where understanding can settle easily, and where the witch can recognize the difference between meaningful knowledge and distracting noise.

---

​

Intention (Clarity)

Write this line on a small piece of paper:

“My perception is steady, and I recognize truth as I learn magick.”

This intention focuses the spell on:

• steady perception (seeing things as they are)
• truth-recognition (feeling when something rings true)

Both currents move inward, strengthening the witch’s skill without touching anything external.

---

​

Sigil Construction (Compress)

Remove repeating letters from the intention and weave the remaining ones into a single symbol.
Let the shape simplify itself until it looks self-contained.

The sigil is meant to hold the intention quietly, not loudly.

---

​

Charging

Charge the sigil gently using one of these:

• a slow breath
• steady warmth from the palm
• a brief press of the thumb

Insight spells respond best to calm attention rather than force.

---

​

Activation (Collapse)

Look at the sigil for a few seconds.
Close the eyes and let the written sentence fade, leaving only the shape in mind.

This soft release activates the work.

---

​

Closure

Discard or tear the written sentence.
Keep the sigil in a calm place—a journal, a wallet, a drawer, or near an altar.

Do not focus on it afterward; let it run quietly.

---

​

Duration

The sigil’s influence naturally lasts for one lunar cycle (about 28 days).
If continued understanding or deeper insight is needed, create a new sigil rather than reworking the old one.

[Aldebaran]

Menstrual blood gets a lot of hype in witchcraft spaces, so here’s a fuller breakdown for anyone who wants a realistic picture of what it actually does in spellwork, without the dramatics or the “goddess blogger” polish.


A lot of newer practitioners hear that it’s “the most powerful ingredient” or that it “makes everything stronger.” That’s technically true, but not in the way people expect. It’s strong because it’s a blend of a bunch of energies at once: hormonal shifts, emotional states, reproductive symbolism, your personal signature, lunar cycle timing, and even ancestral threads. That makes it one of the densest, most layered materials you can put into a spell.


The problem is that most spells aren’t built to handle that many layers. A simple intention — like protection, money, job stress relief, calming work, cleansing, love drawing, or whatever — doesn’t need a full-spectrum energy source behind it. It needs a clean channel and a steady current. Menstrual blood isn’t steady; it’s raw, it’s loud, and it activates anything it touches on multiple levels.


That rawness is where people run into trouble. When menstrual blood is added to a spell that didn’t require that level of intensity, it can cause:

• emotional overshoot
• manifestations that “hit” sideways
• spiritual pushback
• ancestral or shadow stuff surfacing unintentionally
• the spell pulling in unrelated energies
• the result landing way faster or harder than expected, and not always cleanly

It’s not that menstrual blood “ruins” spells — it’s that it brings so many extra channels with it that the spell ends up doing more than you asked for.


This is why many experienced witches only use it for specific kinds of work: deep healing, generational or womb-line magic, major path shifts, binding that’s meant to root deeply, potent relationship workings (if you know exactly what you’re doing), or anything involving life-force transformation. In those cases, the intensity is actually the point.


If the spell is small, practical, or meant to stay tidy, menstrual blood is usually not the best option. It’s like trying to fine-tune a radio while blasting a whole symphony through the speakers. The signal gets muddy.


Another thing that gets overlooked: menstrual blood is not emotionally neutral. Whatever is going on in your life, your body, or your cycle will show up in the spell. Stress, anger, grief, exhaustion — all of that rides into the working with the blood. If you’re not intentionally weaving those energies into the spell, they become interference.


There’s also a misunderstanding that “blood = stronger = better.” Stronger isn’t better unless the spell genuinely requires strong. More power doesn’t make a spell more effective; it just makes it more forceful. If the structure of the working can’t handle the force behind it, it bends and warps the direction of the intention.


So if someone doesn’t feel called to use menstrual blood, they’re not missing out on some secret elite practice. Most witches get perfectly solid, consistent results without it. It’s a tool — a very intense one — not a requirement.


And if someone does want to work with it, that’s fine too. It just helps to actually know what’s happening so the choice is intentional, not based on hype.


Bottom line: menstrual blood is valid in magic, but extremely strong and very easy to overdo. Use it for big work that needs that kind of depth. For everyday spells, more stable and neutral materials usually give cleaner, more predictable results.

Thank you. This explained a lot more than anything I've read about using menstrual blood, which was just "its dangerous". Can I ask, I'm very much new to spellwork and still working first on the basics like raising energy. Eventually though, I'm working up to a spell that would bring out the truth of a situation. Such as getting undeniable proof or having folks involved volunteer the information they have about wrong doing and negligence. Then lastly for these people to be held accountable. Any suggestions?

Thank you for the kind words!

As a personal rule; I never cast magick that can influence the Will of another. Do what THOU Wilt. And all that

That doesn't mean I can't play within those rules. So instead of casting spells that force others to tell the truth, I can cast a spell on myself to raise my ability to perceive deception. The same result but a world of difference in intent.

Thank you so much for replying! I completely understand your stance. I feel like my situation could bring about legal proceedings if I could just get some information confirmed/ denied and if anyone would tell on themselves. Without that happening its just my accusation without proof. I'll try to get more creative though. Thank you again!

What about casting a spell where the intent is 'The truth reveals itself" ? IDK. just thinking out loud

The Mirror of Arrival​

Purpose: Command presence when entering a space

​

The Talisman​

One personal object you already wear or carry
(ring, necklace, watch, bracelet, coin).

The Spell​

1. Pause at the threshold
   Stop just before entering the space.
   Take one full, unforced breath.
2. Name the quality
   Silently choose one quality you are arriving as
   (calm, authority, warmth, gravity, ease).
3. Touch the talisman
   Briefly and intentionally.
   No visualization. No amplification.
4. Release the quality
   Let it go immediately.
   Do not hold it in mind.
5. Enter without adjustment
   Move naturally.
   No posture correction.
   No self-monitoring.

One Rule (This Matters)​

If you check whether it’s working, you break it.
Glamour functions like good music: you play the note, then you trust the room.

---

Explanation​

This spell works because it balances intention with restraint. The pause clears residual momentum from wherever you came from, creating a neutral baseline. Naming a single quality introduces direction without overload — glamour weakens when multiple traits compete. Touching the talisman binds that direction to the body rather than the imagination, keeping the spell grounded and repeatable. The most important step is the release: by letting go of the quality immediately, you prevent effort, self-consciousness, and performance. Presence only reads as authentic when it is not being managed. Once you enter the space without correction or checking, the field does the rest — others perceive the quality because you are no longer trying to project it. The glamour holds precisely because you stop touching it.

Traditional spell structures use: elements, direction, steps, symbols. Glamour works differently. Its balances are:

• before / after
• inside / outside
• self / field
• intention / restraint

So instead of adding parts, we add counterweights.
