An Ancient Greek Curse
***This curse can be used for literally anything you want. It is very simply and easy to cast, so beginners are welcome to try it. Just remember to protect yourself as you're casting and care for yourself afterwards!***
This is an ancient Greek curse adapted for modern usage. In the original, the Greeks discarded the paper in wells and fountains, but since that's kind of a shitty thing to do nowadays, I've changed that step to burial. The lead tablet used has also been replaced with paper, since, well, you know, lead is toxic.
Most of the time, this curse was used against individuals in sports contests or for legal issues. Targets would be cursed on a lead tablet with a nail sticking through it. The formula of the curse varied, but the basic concept was the same. The spell would be returned to the earth by throwing it in a well or fountain; this was so that any Underworld Deities who wanted to help would be able to see the curse and lend their aid. This curse, therefore, does call upon Underworld Deities, although if there is a specific Deity you want to call out to, you're more than welcome to do that.
If you aren't able to use a nail or screw, by the way, I recommend using literally anything that can be stabbed through a paper and isn't extremely harmful for the environment if you were to bury it. Using a toothpick, for example, should work perfectly.
-
What You'll Need:
A piece of paper
Something to write with
A nail or screw
A place to discard the paper naturally
Intention
Steps:
Take your paper and write your target's name. I recommend giving as much information about them as you can (birthdays, parents' names, full names, etc.). I recommend also making a little drawing of your target as an effigy, even if it's just a stick figure.
Write what you would like to happen to your target on the paper. You can get creative with it! If you'd like to appeal more to The Chthonic Powers, I'd recommend briefly stating what the person did to you as well. Make sure you are placing your intention into the curse as you write!
Fold the paper in half.
Take your nail or screw and stab it through the paper. If you made an effigy, I recommend stabbing it through their heart or head, if possible.
Take your paper and return it to the earth. I recommend burying it to do this. You can even knock on the ground a few times to get the attention of The Underworld Deities.
You're all done! Great job! Now make sure to cleanse yourself and your space thoroughly. Take a cleansing bath/shower, burn incense, meditate - whatever you need to do.

Discreet/Practical Travel Altar: My Wallet!
Maybe it's just the Hermes devotee in me, but I love travel altars! I love how discreet they can be, but they can also have a practical use...which made me realize, my wallet is a travel altar devoted to Hermes!
The wallet itself can have a pattern and decorations reminiscent of a particular vibe, energy, spirit, deity...and prayer cards can double as idols without taking up too much space. Plus, anything you keep in it, like money, can be offerings!
I purchased the wallet a while ago from SewSophia--with the colors and map design of the fabric, it was the exact Hermes vibe I was looking for. I added a set of HearthfireHandiworks' bracelet prayer beads on the keyring, and the prayer card is the lovely work of WyrdCuriosities. I've had all these things together in this wallet for years, but it really has been a functional travel altar all this time, who knew! 🤣
(Edit: I've been warned to err on the side of caution with WyrdCuriosities so just passing the message along 👍)

Aphrodite Intro Pages
Let us delve into the realm of the Greek goddess Aphrodite, known as the Smile-Loving. She is a divine beauty, Her radiance rivaling that of the heavens, yet Her wrath can be as fierce as the sea She was born from. Emerging from the sea froth of Ouranos' castration, She is hailed as the daughter of Zeus. While She may be a minor deity of the sea, particularly associated with sea foam and creatures like tortoises, turtles, and clams, Her influence extends far beyond, shaping numerous myths and narratives as the Goddess of Passion.
These pages will give you a glimpse into my understanding and reverence of Aphrodite. The content, largely drawn from my grimoire, is a testament to my unique perception and worship of this goddess. However, it's important to note that the altar concept, while significant to me, is a conceptual representation and not a direct reflection of my daily worship. These visuals are crafted with the internet in mind and are highly aesthetic.
55. To Aphrodite (The Orphic Hymns, Athanassakis and Wolkow translation; excerpt)
Heavenly, smiling Aphrodite, praised in many hymns,
sea-born revered goddess of generation, you like the night-long revel,
you couple lovers at night, O scheming mother of Necessity.
Everything comes from you: you have yoked the world,
you control all three realms, you give birth to all,
to everything in heaven, to everything upon the fruitful earth,
to everything in the depths of the sea, O venerable companion of Bacchos.
You delight in festivities, O bride-like mother of the Erotes,
O Persuasion, whose joy is in the bed of love, secretive giver of grace,
visible and invisible, lovely-tressed daughter of a noble father,
bridal feast companion of the gods, sceptered, she-wolf,
beloved and man-loving, giver of birth and life.
Your maddening love-charms yoke mortals,
they yoke the many races of beasts to unbridled passion.
Come, O goddess born in Kypros: you may be on Olympos,
O queen, exulting in the beauty of your face,
you may be in Syria, country of fine frankincense
you may be driving your golden chariot in the plain,
you may lord it over Egypt's fertile river bed.
Come, whether you ride your swan-drawn chariot over the sea's billows,
joining the creatures of the deep, as they dance in circles,
or on the land in the company of the dark-faced nymphs
as light-footed they frisk
over the sandy beaches,
Come lady, even if you are in Kypros that cherishes you,
where fair maidens and chaste brides throughout the year sing of you,
O blessed one, as they sing of immortal, pure Adonis.
Come, O beautiful, O comely goddess,
I summon you with holy words, I summon you with a pious soul.

Ode to Aphrodite Migôntis (Μιγωντις "Marital Union")
The goddess of weddings,
The bringer of the bells.
Bringth to me the strength of a marital union,
A spouse so wealthy and kind.
Oh hear my call Migôntis,
My wish is a wealthy spouse.
One who is gentle and kind,
Bring to me my perfect marriage contract.
Bestow upon me the life of luxury and love,
A life of blessings true.
Allow the wealthy to love me,
Have them worship my words and style.
Allow many rich lovers to want me,
Help me find my wealthy spouse.
Allow me to marry and be happy,
In wealth and soul.
Oh hear my prayer great Aphrodite Migôntis,
I pray for a rich gentle spouse.
I pray for marriage and comfort,
I beg for love and wealth.
Please bless me oh holy mother,
My holy mother Aphrodite Migôntis.

Witches & Witchcraft: Types & Definitions
There is an abundance of types of witches, some being more common than others, for example, death witch or hedge witch. I have provided the different types of witches with a brief description/definition of what they study, believe and tools most commonly used for each.
The types of witchcraft is entirely up to the individual which they prefer to do. One person may only follow on type of magick whereas another may follow several. Listed are a handful of the many kinds, but I'm listing the most common/known types of magick/witchcraft that people fall into.
I have grouped some witches together as they fit together under the same or similar definitions.
Types of Witches
Religious witches;
Christian, Satanic (Theistic), Laveyan Satanic, Hellenic, Celtic and Wiccan, etc. are witches that follow a primary belief system and incorporate their religion into the craft.
Non-Religious witches;
Secular - doesn't work with [a] deity(ies).
Science - (also a craft type), uses metaphysical and scientific fads and theories mixed together.
Other types of witches;
Solitary - works alone and is not part of a coven. Won't typically work with other witches for spell work or any part of their practice.
Eclectic - a practice that includes multiple practises from different areas. A mixture of all practices, may practise one more than another, or all equally.
Hereditary/Generational - a witch who is born into a family whom practice the craft. The term 'Blood witch' is often a hot topic of controversy as to whether it makes one a more powerful witch.
Traditional - a type that is based on honouring the traditional ways of magick, which also ties in nicely with generational/hereditary witches.
Chaotic/Chaos - a witch who utilizes new, non-traditional and unorthodox methods. It's still relatively new and highly individualistic practice while still drawing from common forms of magick.
Types of Witchcraft/Magick
Green Witch; A witch who uses natural magick, such as creating blends of different plants, or primarily using herbs and/or crystals spells in their craft. Tools mostly consist of herbs, crystals, stones, flowers, soil or other greenery.
Hedge Witch; Also know as an astral witch, this type of magick is orientated around spiritual work such as astral projection, lucid dreaming, spirit work, healing and out-of-body magick. Tools mostly consist tarot cards, runes, pendulum, stones, crystal ball, mirrors & candles.
Dream Witch; Mindful and internal magickal practice mainly based from interpreting dreams and/or engaging in lucid dreaming. Practises used to 'de-code' symbols and messages in the dream world can be used similarly to how one would use divination techniques. Tools mostly consist of dream catchers, candles, books of glossaries of symbols.
Sea/Ocean; Derived from materials and abstract ideas involving ocean and the oceanic world. Sea or ocean magick can be worked with by using things found on or relating to a beach/lagoon. A sea witch might draw their energy from such tools. Tools commonly consist of driftwood, pebbles/stones, seashells, ocean water, bones, seaweed, candles.
Storm/Weather; magick used through combining one's energy with the weather; most commonly rain. Weather witches will collect different ingredients provided by the weather, absorb energy from storms, manipulate winnds, or perhaps predict the weather. Tools most commonly consist of rain/snow water, symbols/weather maps, crystals.
Cottage/Hearth; Magick that is weaved and worked or embedded into mundane tasks around the house or for loved ones. Cottage magick is usually worked into cleaning, hobbies or cooking. Tools commonly consist of essential oils, incense, bells, flowers, cleaning utensils, spices and herbs.
Tea Witch; Creating blends of teas for protection, remedies or even to use for tea-leaf divination. Tools commonly consist of tea, herbs, waters, spices.
Tech Witch; Use of technology in the craft, mostly based through phones or computers. Mostly used for storing of information, grimoires, spell books and Book of Shadows/diaries. Tools consist of apps on the phone, digital sigils, online blogs and pages.
Garden/Flora; Mostly (if not all) focused on herbal and botanical measures. Many garden witches have their own garden and plant flowers and herbs to draw in energy for their home and to include in rituals and spells. Tools commonly consist of flowers, soil, seeds, greenery, twigs/tree branches, leaves.
Elemental; Using all 4 (or 5) elements in an honouring or acknowledging form. A witch can choose to work with all, or singular elements. One may have a dedicated area on their alters to a particular elements. Tools consist of anything related to said element.
Faery/Fae; Magick for those who communicate with, and/or work with the Fae. Those whom work with fae may also leave offerings regularly as thanks for the assistance of a faery in their spell work. Tools commonly consist of anything sweet, sigils, offerings.
Spirit; A practice which an individual will perform spell work in conjunction with (or the help of) any manner of spirit, including Ouija, demon spirits, spiritual contact of any kind, working with ancestors. Tools commonly consist of crystals, bells, incense, Ouija boards, tarot cards, pendulums, sigils.
Draconian: The use of dragons and dragon imagery; whether it be trough astral matters or in spells and rituals. May also be connected with dragon spirits on their journey. Tools commonly consist of dragons art, statues, candles.
Seasonal; Utilizing and drawing energy from specific time periods of the year for their magick. One individual may feel more powerful at a particular time of year. It can also be spread out into the 4 seasons. Tools commonly consist of herbs related to certain seasons, stones, ruins and the weather.

Energy; Those who prefer to do magick through energy exercises and manipulation rather than many physical tools or materials. This may also include aura work. The only tools needed for this type is yourself.
Crystal; Magick that is worked commonly with stones and crystals. The practise may include chakra balancing, crystal meditation and even spell work or rituals. Extensive knowledge of stone, including how to identify them. Tools most commonly used are crystals, books, grimoires and stones.

Hymns to Hecate
Orphic Hymn to Hecate
Hekate Enodia, Trivia, lovely dame,
Of earthly, watery, and celestial frame,
Sepulchral, in a saffron veil arrayed,
Pleased with dark ghosts that wander through the shade;
Daughter of Perses, solitary goddess, hail!
The world’s key-bearer, never doomed to fail;
In stags rejoicing, huntress, nightly seen,
And drawn by bulls, unconquerable, monstrous queen;
Leader, Nymphe, nurse, on mountains wandering,
Hear the suppliants who with holy rites thy power revere,
And to the herdsman with a favoring mind draw near.
Hecate’s Hymn to Herself
I come, a virgin of varied forms,
wandering through the heavens, bull-faced,
three-headed, ruthless, with golden arrows;
chaste Phoebe bringing light to mortals, Eileithyia;
bearing the three synthemata [sacred signs] of a triple nature.
In the Aether I appear in fiery forms
and in the air I sit in a silver chariot,
Earth reins in my black brood of puppies.
(From Porphyry’s lost commentary on the Chaldean Oracles, preserved by Eusebius of Caesaria in Praeparatio Evangelica. According to Porphyry, this hymn was composed by Hecate herself.)
Magical Invocation to Hecate
Approach, you of the netherworld, of earth, of heaven, Bombo!
You by the wayside, at the crossroads, light-bearer, night-wanderer,
Enemy of light, friend and companion of night,
Rejoicing in the howl of dogs and in crimson gore,
Lurking among the corpses and the tombs of lifeless dust,
Lusting for blood, bringing terror to mortals,
Grim one, Ogress [Mormo], Moon – you of many forms,
May you come gracious to our sacrificial rites!
(Preserved in Refutation to All Heresies by Hippolytus)
Invocation to Hecate from PGM IV 2708-84
Come, giant Hecate, Dione’s guard,
O Persia [daughter of Perses], Baubo Phroune, dart-shooter,
Unconquered Lydian, the one untamed,
Sired nobly, torch-bearing, guide, who bends down
Proud necks, Kore, hear, you who’ve parted / gates
Of steel unbreakable. O Artemis,
Who, too, were once protectress, mighty one,
Mistress, who burst forth from the earth, dog-leader,
All-tamer, crossroad goddess, triple-headed,
Bringer of light, august / virgin, I call you
Fawn-slayer, crafty, O infernal one,
And many-formed. Come, Hekate, goddess
Of three ways, who with your fire-breathing phantoms
Have been allotted dreaded roads and harsh /
Enchantments, Hekate I call you
[…]
O Hekate of many names,
O Virgin, Kore, Goddess, come, I ask,
O guard and shelter of the threshing floor
Persephone, O triple-headed goddess,
Who walk on fire, cow-eyed BOUORPHORBE
PANPHORBA PHORBARA AKITOPHI
ERESHKIGAL / NEBOUTOSOUALETH
Beside the doors, PYPYLEDEDEZO
And gate-breaker; Come Hekate, of firey
Counsel, I call you to my sacred chants.

Book Of Shadows
｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆
I've been editing my Book of Shadows for a few days now and I think it's time to share some of it here. These are just a few excerpts from it. I purposely made it black&white so it looks Victorian and uses less ink when printed on parchment paper.
1. History of Paganism
2. Satanic Panic
3. The Sacred Circle & Altar
4. Lunar Transit
5. Moon Phases
6. Wheel of the Year + Imbolc
Keep in mind that these are just some of the random pages I picked so it's unorganized. I'll be sharing my Table of Contents next time to show you how I organized it all.
P.S. Almost all of the fonts are free to download from Dafont. So if you want any font from these pages let me know :) We do not gatekeep here!
