Some seashore detail photos from a trip to the local beach a little while ago. It was a cloudy day, and the seaweed patterns on the sand were so pretty!くコ:彡 <3

I just woke up at 7 am exactly w a weird feeling, then a few minutes later my whole room is rumbling and I can hear the glass in my window rattling. It lasted about a minute or two. I actually thought there was an earthquake for a few minutes there. But no, just Space-X launching their "Super Heavy" rocket, the "most powerful launch vehicle ever built', about 25 minutes away from my home. I cannot even describe how much I hate Space-X for all that they've done to my community and the environment in which we live. Musk has inflicted SEVERE and unforgivable harm upon land extremely diverse in plant and animal species (we have the 2nd highest concentration of wildlife next to Everglades!!), has made sea turtle nesting sites unsafe and unusable for the turtles, and is encouraging the gentrification of our culturally unique border community. Not to mention, the land which he disrespects so blatantly is occupied by the Carrizo Comecrudo tribe and is extremely significant to the indigenous peoples of this region. My own ancestors relied on this coastal environment for nourishment and safety, and it has always been a source of peace and love for my family and myself.

my pocket altar to Amphitrite
this is probably the only time I’ll post photos of a full altar and that’s because I felt called to share. Amphitrite isn’t as well known as other deities of the Greek pantheon so I think sharing is caring in this instance. The only thing that isn’t pictured is the divination tool I use to speak with the Lady Amphitrite.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I repurposed an altoids tin for this pocket altar. I energetically cleansed it and placed items that I felt called by Amphitrite to put inside. I have some shells I collected from the beach, sand mixed with sea salt, an aquamarine crystal, a devotional candle, small incense sticks and a doily as an altar cloth.
I also decorated the inside with some sea imagery and I made a small paper standee to act as a stand in for a statue/figure.

do you have any sea witch resources by any chance? if not that’s fine
I didn't have any saved but I found some just for you! I haven't proofread everything here, so remember to always take what you read with a grain of salt, critically think and cross reference.
Sea Witch Resources
Sea & Water Witch Resources on the Web
Sea Magic References
Witchcraft for the Sea Witch
Sea Witch: Harnessing the Power of the Ocean
Sea Witchery Ideas
Charm Bags: Sea Witch Style
Animals in Sea Witchcraft

Also this website/personal blog is under construction and I have no idea how long it's been that way but it looks cool and may be something to keep an eye on?
I feel like concepts like "sea witch" are a relatively new thing so a lot of what I found tends to be shorter, online inspiration unfortunately. But it's something!
Also reminder, you guys can ask me for resources anytime. I'm more likely to get back to you through messages, but I do my best either way.

Sea witchcraft
Sea witchcraft, also known as sea magic or ocean witchcraft, is a type of witchcraft that is centered around the sea and its energies. It is a form of nature-based spirituality that draws upon the elements of water, air, and earth, and the rhythms of the tides and the moon. Sea witches may focus on healing, divination, or protection, as well as working with sea creatures and the spirits of the ocean.
Here are some key practices and beliefs associated with sea witchcraft:
Connection to the Sea: Sea witches believe in the power of the ocean and its ability to heal and transform. They may feel a deep connection to the sea, and incorporate its energies into their daily practice.
Working with Water: Water is a central element in sea witchcraft, and sea witches may work with it in a variety of ways, such as using sea water in rituals, collecting rainwater for use in spells, or working with water crystals or gemstones.
Moon Magic: The phases of the moon and its connection to the tides is an important aspect of sea witchcraft. Sea witches may perform rituals or spells during specific moon phases, and use lunar correspondences in their practice.
Sea Creatures: Sea witches may work with the spirits of sea creatures, such as dolphins, whales, and sea turtles. They may also use shells, coral, or other oceanic items in their spellwork.
Protection Magic: Because the ocean can be dangerous and unpredictable, sea witches may focus on protection magic, using spells or charms to ward off negative energies or to protect sailors and fishermen.
Divination: Sea witches may use various forms of divination to gain insights and guidance, such as tarot, runes, or sea shell readings.
Weather Magic: The sea and the weather are closely connected, and sea witches may work with the energies of storms, wind, and rain. They may perform rituals to calm storms or to bring rain during droughts.
Sea witchcraft can be practiced both on land and at sea. Some sea witches may work by the ocean, incorporating natural items like shells, driftwood, and seaweed into their practice, while others may incorporate the essence of the sea into their practice by using items like sea salt, seashells, or sea-themed decor in their homes.
Sea witchcraft is a beautiful and powerful way to connect with the energies of the ocean and nature, and to deepen your spiritual practice.

"How does one practice as a sea witch?": An open dialogue
Hello! Something I've been thinking about today is, what does it mean to be a sea witch? Namely, what does one's practice look like as a sea witch?
🐚 What tool(s), ingredient(s), and/or magical actions does a sea witch use in spells?
🐠 What deity(ies), if any, does a sea witch use in their practice?
🫧 Do their visualization(s) and meditations involve sounds of the ocean, music that invokes imagery of the sea, viewing pictures or videos of the ocean, holding seashells or other items collected from previous beach visits?
🐡 Do sea witches invoke just the powers of the sea in their craft, or any body(ies) of water?
💧 Does one look to just the ocean for one's power, or things related to the ocean like sea creatures, seaweed, etc.?
These are the questions that inspired this post! I'd love to hear from other sea witches what their practices look like. If you're a sea witch, feel free to share however much or however little of your sea witchcraft you'd like. 💙
To ease us into things, I'll start with my own craft:
🌊 Whenever I'm feeling decalibrated, or if I know a full moon is coming up, I go to the beach! I'm lucky to live close by, so I make the trip whenever I can. Nothing has made me feel more powerful as a with than dancing under the full moon light on the beach and hearing the waves crash fervently onto the shore.
🌊 I collect items from the beach whenever I can - mainly seashells, driftwood, and sand. I thank the ocean for whatever I collect, and I make sure to pick up any trash I see while I'm collecting as a way of giving back!
🌊 When gathering energy, I'll imagine I'm underwater sitting on the sea floor, and I have a small bubble in my hands. As I chant, I imagine the bubble growing bigger until there's enough energy inside it to envelope me inside it.
🌊 I invoke the power of the sea (and water in general) when casting spells.
🌊 I write runes or sigils on seashells.
🌊 I keep seashells and a vial of sand on my altar. The seashell is nice to hold during meditations.
🌊 I use sand in my cauldron when I'm burning incense or spell ingredients.
🌊 I have a mermaid-themed tarot deck! I connected with it right away & it has yet to steer me wrong in any reading.
🌊 I made a playlist on Spotify with songs that remind me of the water! Some songs contain bubbles, ocean waves, and sea life sound effects, which is so so so useful when I'm meditating.
I'm excited to hear from my fellow sea witches what they do in their practices! And I hope this post helps anyone tinkering with the idea of sea witchcraft! 😊

Personal ideas for simple devotional acts to Njörðr
Tumblr media
Let us all praise the Lord of Ships, the Vanir King. He is the bestower of wealth and the guardian of seas, and his gifts are many! If you’re looking to start working with Njörðr, or worshipping him, these ideas make for quick and simple gestures that showcase your interest. They’re also perfect for a pagan who already maintains a close relationship with the sea, water spirits, or a sea deity. After all, spiritual practice gets hard to sustain when you’re working on a tight schedule! Which is why I hope these little personal ideas can inspire even those of you who already actively worship/work with Njörðr. 
First things first: pondering on what Njörðr stands for, what you think he can bring your life and what you think he would appreciate in return. 
Going for walks on windy days. Njörðr is said to raise winds that are favorable to sailboats! 
Cooking and eating sea products, especially if you can find them fresh! I usually keep an eye out for fishermen’s markets. It’s a good idea to buy locally if the opportunity presents itself. The most important thing is to make sure you’re buying from sustainable fish farming companies, especially if you’re at a restaurant or buying from a grocery store.
Putting the sound of waves as background music before sleep. You can visualize the sea, or the ocean, and use this image to connect with Njörðr either by simply meditating on him and his gifts, or even by praying to him.
If possible, spending time near bodies of water: water is a network which connects the land to the ocean. In the end, all rivers, no matter how small, are bound to the ocean. 
Watching documentaries on the sea, or on marine life! The simple gesture of learning about his domain, developing your understanding of it, can make you feel that much closer to the Father of Light-Bringers. 
Whenever you’re at a local beach, collecting seashells or rocks which catch your eye! They’re a way to bring a piece of the sea home with you! 
Since I cook a lot, there’s this little habit I’ve come to develop, of adding a pinch of sea salt (or fleur de sel) to every recipe. Of course, I won’t do this if I’m cooking a simple sandwich for myself: I’m talking about large pots of soup, meat pies, stews, etc. It’s a way of reminding myself that the Vanir bring about the fertility which allows us sustain ourselves. 
Learning sea shanties!!! Did you smile? That’s because sea shanties are fun, and what better way to honor a God than by having fun in their name! One of my favorite songs ever is a folk ballad about an old woman who begs her husband to leave the city and go back to the island where they used to live, where she could watch the seagulls and where he would fish their dinner. Songs such as these can make for beautiful and deeply personal offerings. Once you’ve learned a fisherman’s song, you’ll find yourself humming it in your day-to-day, and thinking of Njörðr as you’re doing so.
Making offerings of coin to him. I’ve heard that he was particularly fond of the coin-shaped chocolates that are wrapped in gold foil! Generally, anything that is made of gold or silver makes for a beautiful offering to him. You can, of course, keep such objects after offering them! The act of sharing them with Njörðr is symbolic, as are many offerings, and you are as entitled to keeping these valuables as you are to drinking offering alcohol after the ritual is done. Placing your silver/gold object on a windowsill or an altar for a day, a week or a month is enough to act as an offering.  
When it comes to the Vanir, you usually can’t go wrong with buying local products! What does your area specialize in, in terms of food? Now that summer’s at our door, we’ve reached the perfect time to look into local farmer’s markets. If, like me, you’re in the habit of offering alcohol to some or most of your deities, local draft beer is a great idea for Njörðr. In my area, grocery shops sometimes sell this one beer that’s made using salt water! It’s my go-to for Njörðr, understandably.
Acting generously, taking opportunities to share with others! It’s a way of honoring and embodying the Vanir King’s own benevolence.
As a follow-up, working on your ability to be compassionate: putting yourself in somebody else’s shoes, forgiving a wrong that has been done to you, finding compromise during a conflict with loved ones... If you are put in a position of leadership, lead others with care and attentiveness. Njörðr’s mythological son Freyr is heavily associated with peace. By protecting peace, you are honoring them both. 
Keeping a symbol of his on you as an amulet: representations of fish, anchors, lighthouses, ships, or anything else that symbolizes the sea all make for beautiful reminders of Njörðr’s presence. Especially if they are silver or gold-colored! In fact, a simple silver or gold coin, or even just a coin with special meaning in your heart, is the perfect amulet to keep in your wallet/purse in his honor. 
Learning to tie knots, or any other simple skill that is useful on a boat is fun and a great way to feel connected with the sea. This goes without saying but if you’ve got the chance to go for a boat ride, take it in his honor!
Asking him to grant you a safe journey before traveling long distances.

I was able to get more clip-on earrings recently, so I made a bunch of new pairs!! <|:D
I made some with wire-wrapped shells, green sea glass I found at the beach, little flocked bears, and pinwheel beads. I also wire-wrapped a set of dice and a matching necklace :)

May your ancestral communications be clear and healing these Dias de Los Muertos 🤍 I did some cleansing work last night using a space cleansing chime candle I make. The candle is made with beeswax, soy wax, and Sage, Patchouli, Bergamot, and Lavender essential oils. I dressed it with Lemon essential oil and the herbs I used. The intentional herbs that I chose to help cleanse and balance my space while inviting forward and honoring my ancestors include Itzayahuatl, Rosemary, Mugwort, Cinnamon, and Jasmine. I also used small chunks of pink Himalayan salt to represent the 4 directions, so my intention would flow clearly through each direction 🌊 I cleansed my spellwork plate beforehand with Agua de Florida, Copal, and Palo Santo to invite warm and loving energies. I also cleansed myself with the Copal and Palo Santo 💗

Being a neurodivergent or mentally ill witch…
Let’s admit it, a lot of the most popular witch tips out there are very centered around neurotypical brains. Sitting down in complete silence to meditate for hours? Dedicating time to sitting down and reading? Having a set schedule everyday for witchcraft? It’s just not realistic for everyone, especially those that can experience executive dysfunction due to neurodivergence or mental illness. For me personally I experience ADHD and compulsions due to anxiety, and listening to the wrong witchy advice in the past caused me a lot of discomfort and anxiety in my life. I thought if I did something the wrong way an evil spirit would take me, or I felt like a failure because I can’t sit still and meditate for long periods of time. Witchcraft is for everybody and I want people to stop witch-shaming those of us who just have to do things a different way in order to achieve our spiritual goals. I get a lot of my information through podcasts and audiobooks as opposed to sitting and reading. I meditate while doing a craft I enjoy and put magickal energy into my art. There is no one size fits all way to do witchcraft.

Foraging for Witchcraft
One of the great things about foraging specifically for Witchcraft is that you're not restricted to just edible things. You can forage/find stones, clay, bones, herbs, water, fruits and vegetables, wood and more.
I've made a post previously about how important low-cost Witchcraft is. So consider this a follow-up of things you can find for your practice that are completely free.
Some useful tools that are simple to forage if you are near the sea:
-Sea salt
Just gather filtered sea water in a pot and boil until salt crystals form. Then put the salt on a baking tray and either leave to sun dry or put it in the oven. You can also make infused salts and black salt like this
-Sea shells
They are common for love workings but are also great for protection, grind them up and use them in a protection salt (obviously not one you're going to eat)
-Sand
Often used for ritual magic, especially dyed sands. Also good for spell bags, planting certain plants, keep it in Jars or boxes and Bury things in it for a freezer spell.
-Stones and crystals
Of course I love flint, but there are many different stones based on your geographical location that will be good for Witchcraft. Quartz is great for protection, it doesn't have to be clear in order to work. White quartz is just fine.
-Sea glass
Sea glass is such a great form of protection, with colours from green to blue to brown and even a very rare red piece. Being infused with the ocean's energies really makes it special.
Some tools that are simple if you live near a forest/wooded area:
-Branches
Fallen branches can work as wands, divining rods, kindling for a fire, and depending on the type of wood they have different associations. You can make your own broomstick from collecting enough branches.
-Moss
Moss is often overlooked in magical practice, but it is an amazing type of plant that you can grow in a jar terrarium or dry and use in spell work. It is often the first thing to grow over dead wood or old stones, and as such it is Hardy and useful for hard times and new growth.
-Plants
So, so many different plants. Some edible plants like wild garlic have great uses in kitchen witchery, some poisonous plants like hemlock can be an amazing kick to your death work or baneful practice. What plants you can Forage will depend on your local area.
-Bones
Animal bones are a beautiful way to incorporate death and life into your practice. I usually let the Bones that want to be used for my practice come to me- if I can't find any more in a spot there used to be loads, I take that as a sign they did not want to be used/found a better resting place. I could do a whole post on cleaning and preparing Bones for your practice but vulture culture on tumblr has you covered.
Things you can Forage if you live in a city:
You may be surprised that I've included urban areas in this list. Most of what you can Forage here is more commonly thought of as rubbish, but it has excellent magical potential nonetheless.
-Broken glass
Excellent for baneful workings and baneful protection magic. Please be careful when collecting it, wear gloves and use a sealed container so no shards escape.
-Coins
Find a penny, pick it up and all the day you'll have good luck. I always keep the pennies I find on the pavement as a token of good luck.
-Beer bottle caps
I love collecting these and putting them in little jars. Corks can do a similar job when it comes to magic- keeping something in that you don't want coming out. Like an urban salt circle. Put a lid on it.
-Weeds
While you might not be in an area with abundant foliage and wildlife, you will undoubtedly be able to find weeds growing in the pavement or on gates and buildings. Ivy has great binding properties, dandelions are great for protection, shamrocks for luck ect.
-Feathers
These are easy to find if you live near pigeons and other birds. Please don't pick it up if there is a bird flu outbreak in your area, and as with bones make sure to wash them before bringing them into your home.
