 What is a money bowl? Who couldn't use some more money in their life? A money bowl is a bowl or other container filled with things to draw money to you. You can fill it with all kinds of things, there's no one right way to do it. below I'll go over how I do mine. Feel free to use it exactly how I write it or to change it up as you see fit! How I do my money bowl First I took a ceramic bowl & cleansed it with some incense. Then I drew sigils on the inside for things like "Money from good sources comes to me", "Money flows to me with ease" and "My Etsy shop makes sales". If you need a guide on how to create your own sigils, check out this post for all the details! This post contains a list of herbs & crystals for money if you don't have what I use or would just like to use something else.

What is Moon magic? Moon magic is basically just using the moon phases for spells. Each moon phase has its own intentions. Lining up the day we do our spells with what phase the moon is in isn't absolutely necessary, but it can give spells an extra boost. Lining up the day of the week does the same thing, check out this post for daily correspondences. Below is the list of moon phases and their intentions.  Moon Phases New or Dark Moon-  Dark magic, banishing, curses, divination, new beginnings, binding, soul searching Waxing Crescent- Growth, attraction, creation, healing, luck, success, friendship, inspiration, courage, motivation, love, power, production Waxing gibbous- Attraction, success, health, final planning, motivation Full Moon- Release, Divination, Cleansing, Repelling, Psychic ability, light work, romance, knowledge, blessing, guidance Waning Gibbous- Cleansing, releasing, letting go Waning Crescent- Removal, protection, cleansing, release, curses, mending relation...

  What is color magic? Color magic is when we coordinate the colors of things like candles, pens or pencils, sachets, or even our clothes, shoes, or jewelry, to our intention. Your spells absolutely will still do their thing without coordinating colors but every little boost helps, right? Below I've listed a bunch of colors and what they can each be used for. Feel free to use your own associations as well though. for example Red is usually a color for love but maybe in your head purple is a love color, go ahead and use purple instead. This list is just what the colors are most commonly used for. Colors White- Purification, Truth, Inspiration, Clarity, Spiritual strength, Enlightenment Black- Protection, Honor & Respect, Banishment, Unlocking Red- Love, Passion, Sexuality, Aggression, Strength, Control, Health, Vitality Yellow- Positivity, Courage, Vitality, Progress, Communication, Mental clarity, Focus Orange- Luck, Kindness, Celebration, Abundance, Optimism, Comfort Green- Lu...

  What is Meditation, Mindfulness, & Grounding? Meditation Meditation is basically the act of completely clearing your mind. You can do this by concentrating on your breathing or repeating a mantra, among other methods. There are guided meditations on YouTube, Pandora, and other sites and apps. When you meditate you can connect with your higher self or even a deity you work with. Grounding Grounding is basically the process of releasing excess energy while bringing yourself into the present moment. It’s important to do this because when you have too much excess energy it becomes hard to focus and without focus, no magical working you do will be successful. Below is a list of some methods for grounding.    Get into or nearby running water, even if it’s just running your hands under cool tap water.    Physically touch something that comforts you, a blanket, a worry stone, anything. Do a mindfulness practice  Walk barefoot outside letting your bare feet co...

 What is charm casting?  Charm casting is a method of divination. It can be done with any number of charms, trinkets, stones, etc. It's fairly common to start out with a small set and build it as you gain more practice, and as you come across new pieces. Each charm represents a different part of life or a life event, or really anything you like. At the end of this post, I'll include some possible charm meanings, but all that really matters is that the meanings make sense to you as the caster. Charm sets can be created by the caster or bought. At Sapphire Dopesoul's Etsy  There is a set of 13 charms. (They are intuitively picked for each order. No 2 sets are ever the same.)  How is it done? The way it's done varies from person to person. Generally though, the charms are shaken up while focusing on a person or a question. Then the charms are dumped onto a cloth or dish and based on how they land a reading is given. Some casters use a cloth or board that has aspects of...
