Witchcraft 101: Books!
Hello everybody! Since we all seem to be stuck in this /lovely/ quarantine, I figured that I would share some of my favorite books on witchcraft. Time always seems to fly fast when you’re sat with a good book!
THE BOOKS:
Encyclopedia of Witch Craft - Judika Illes
This one is new to my collection, but I absolutely love Judika Illes’ work! This book shares knowledge on really everything to do with witchcraft. It ranges from early witchcraft to witchcraft in pop culture and movies. Even if this one doesn’t spark your interest, she has many other wonderful books including:
Encyclopedia of Mystics, Saints, and Sages
Pure magic: A Complete Course in Spellcasting
The Big Book of Practical Spells
and many more!
The Modern Witchcraft Grimoire - Skye Alexander
This book is an excellent guide on what to put in your book of shadows/how to set it up. It has two main parts: Designing Your Grimoire and Using Your Grimoire. When I first started using my grimoire, I had absolutely no clue how to properly use it, or what should’ve been included in it. After reading this book, it gave me clearer guidelines to use when I started working in my grimoire.
Practical Magic - Nikki Van De Car
Though it has a similar title to Alice Hoffman’s book, Practical Magic is more of a beginner’s guide into the craft. This book has three parts that cater wonderfully to beginner witches and closet witches. My personal favorite part was the chapter on pagan holidays, as it gives plenty of wonderful tips on how to celebrate those days.
The Modern Witchcraft Guide to Magickal Herbs - Judy Ann Nock
This book is a very in-depth guide on how to use herbs for magickal purposes. In many of my spells, I like to use herbs to amplify certain properties. This is another three part book, offering tips on how to use the herbs. I often use this book for reference on how to use certain herbs.
Blackthorn’s Botanical Magic - Amy Blackthorn
This book offers a guide to using essential oils in spellwork and how to safely use many of them. This book is pretty flexible, giving general knowledge to anyone who might need it. It also offers guides on how to cleanse your oils before using them and how to tell if they’re still pure.
The Witch’s Way - Shawn Robbins and Leanna Greenaway
This book offers historical background on modern magic. This also offers guides on how to figure out what kind of witch you are, how to make poppets, and how to get into contact with your spirit guides. Robbins and Greenaway have many other wonderful books such as:
Wiccapedia
The Good Witch’s Guide (ft. Charity Bedell)
And many more!
CASUAL READS:
I felt that I should also include a list of casual witchy books! These are less of guides and more for entertainment.
Alchemy and Mysticism - Alexander Roob
The Alchemist - Paulo Coelho
Practical Magic - Alice Hoffman
The Rules of Magic - Alice Hoffman
Women who Run with the Wolves - Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Ph.D.
Have fun reading these wonderful books! I hope everyone stays safe and healthy during this trying time. Blessed be!

Hi Diana! I'm sorry if someone already asked a similar question but in your opinion what are some mistakes a tarot reader should never make? Or more in general what are some things a tarot reader should be careful about?
The Most Common Tarot Reader Mistakes
Trusting Your Books Over Your Intuition
If a famous author says The Magician is manifestation, yet when you drew the card, all you felt was trickery and manipulation, listen to yourself. When it comes to tarot, even the best books are just crutches until you learn to walk by yourself.
Speaking Countless Possibilities
Since every card has many meanings, a spread can show a myriad stories. But your cards will tell you which is real. Do not go looking for Sleeping Beauty and Snow White, when Cinderella is looking right at you with eyes so bright.
Not Being Brave Enough to Face the Truth
The Devil can mean passion. But flanked by the misery of the Nine of Swords and the tyranny of The Emperor reversed, it obviously means oppression. Harsh readings do not mean tarot hates you. It means it cares enough to warn you.
Thinking that Negativity Makes You Edgy
But do not give a reading a dark twist because it seems too good to be true. Or because you think too much lightness would not make people respect you. Listen to what the cards are saying. That is all you should be speaking.
Not Letting the Querent Touch Your Cards
You shuffle, they cut. Shuffling lets the cards connect you to the source. Cutting allows the cards to feel the querent’s life force. Refusing contact would be like being a doctor who makes a diagnosis without fully knowing the symptoms.
Thinking the Cards are Replaceable
Tarot has a collective consciousness bigger than any single deck. It remembers any mortal’s previous mistrust and past maltreatment. So never forgo etiquette. Always show your cards respect.
Collecting Decks Merely for Decoration
Use your cards, and use them often. Some decks have been spilled on, and some have been torn. But nothing is sadder than a deck that has been forgotten. Do not deny your cards their purpose. That would simply be heartless.

Oracle Decks 101 🕯🌿
As my new found love for oracle decks bloom, I wanted to make a basic information page for them! It’s not much, but I needed to write this down somewhere so I don’t forget it since I don’t have a book for my many witchy info at the moment. <3
What are oracle decks? ✨
Oracle decks are a divination tool used to predict and answer your inner questions! They’re cards with depictions and specific meanings to aid you with answers.
What’s the difference between oracle decks and tarot decks?
The main difference between tarot decks and oracle decks is that tarot decks have a specific set of rules and structure to them. Tarot decks usually have 78 cards, whilst oracle decks can have as many or as little cards as the creator wants. Oracle decks don’t have rules or structures either. Tarot decks are very “strict” you could say while oracle decks are “free”.
Oracle decks have specific themes to them. And some oracle decks are created for a specific use (but they can still be used generally if that’s what you wish.)
Another difference I’ve personally seen, is that oracle decks are way more intuitive evoking and easier to read than because of how simple the oracle card’s message is, usually decks that have sentences on them.
Oracle decks are very straightforward. They tell you about the whole situation and what may come while tarot decks just tell you why it’s happening and how it’s happening. An example that always helps me remember what these two divination tools are used for is to always remember that tarot decks are telling the story and oracle decks ARE the story (credit to biddytarot.com for that an example, it’s a lifesaver)
Remember: tarot decks aren’t better than oracle decks and vise versa. It’s all based on personal preference and how you connect to the divination tool. I suggest trying both out and seeing which form of divination you feel helps you best.
What are they best used for?
Deity/spirit communication
Spreads (made for tarot or not, they work just as well with oracle cards)
Decision making
Daily draws
Past, present, future
General readings
Seriously oracle decks can be used for just about ANYTHING. Don’t limit yourself honestly, they work really great with almost every spread and question you have in mind.
What are some good oracle decks for beginners?
Personally, I think a first timer can go for any oracle deck they desire as that’s how you create a bond with your deck and find it easier to read the deck. So my first recommendation would be to get the oracle deck that calls out to you; you won’t be sorry.
If you want to make sure you have an easy first experience I really suggest finding oracle decks that have sentences on them! They make the card really easier to understand!
So with that being said, I suggest the “Work Your Light” oracle deck! It’s very straightforward with a “Yes” and “No” card included with its cards and the illustration is beautiful! Not only is it very pretty, but it includes woc and incorporates a lot of religions.
Goddess guidance oracle deck is another great beginner deck! It shows many goddesses from different pantheons respectfully and the illustrations are very beautiful! The cards themselves have those sentences at the bottom which are always handy in immediately knowing what the card is about when you pull it in a reading.
Magickal messages from the faeries oracle deck. This deck, obviously, is very faery based! Now, you can use it for communication with the fae or just in general.
The power of surrender cards. Like most of the cards I’ve listed off, this deck is very easy to interpret and understand when you draw cards. Very great for beginners!!!
How do I cleanse my oracle deck?
Knock on your deck three times
Cleanse with moonlight
Put a crystal on your deck
Blow onto it
Set it on your/or your deity’s alter
Sing to it
Shuffle it with cleansing intention
Wave it through incense smoke
Set your deck near your plants
Cleansing with sound

To make it!
✨ create a sigil that resembles the goal you wish to reach in your future, incorporate prosperity, abundance, and success into the sigil!
✨ place the sigil along with your pyrite into the jar, these will help the energy of your "wishes" to become more powerful. The more personal the sigil, the more powerful.
✨make adorable paper lucky stars of any or every color! You don't have to make them all at one go, this is a jar that's to be used over time.
Correspondences
✨ Green- luck, abundance, success, wealth, fertility, prosperity
✨ Pyrite - abundance, success, prosperity, wealth
✨ Stars - wishes being fulfilled, abundance, luck, success, prosperity, dreams
I did not use a spell candle with this since I will be opening and closing the lid if the jar frequently, but you can burn a green candle when creating the lucky stars for an extra boost!

This card symbolizes the point of your grief. What is paining you at this moment?
author’s note: you may substitute and use a single oracle card for this position, or omit it entirely
Card Two- Denial
This card symbolizes what you are not aware of. What are you not seeing?
Card Three- Depression
This card symbolizes the lowest low in your recovery. How bad is it going to be?
Card Four- Anger
This card symbolizes the unfairness of the situation. What gets you hot under the collar?
Card Five- Bargaining
This card symbolizes what you may need to give up in order to come to terms with your grief. What must you sacrifice?
Card Six- Acceptance
This card represents the overall outcome if you are able to successfully navigate your grieving.
It is important to note that although tarot is helpful, it cannot do the work for you. If you find yourself suffering from mental illness or entertaining thoughts of committing harm to yourself or another, please seek professional help.

The Ultimate Guide to Potion Bases
We all spend so much time thinking about the correspondences of the actual ingredients that go into our potions that we often forget to think about what the potion base represents! (At least I do.) It would be nice to have a list of all the various liquids that can be used in place of water. Naturally, I can’t think of everything but I think this is a pretty good starting point! What else can be used? Eventually, at some point down the road, I will compile all these thoughts into a book on potion making and want to include this! Keep in mind that these are my own correspondences. Let me know if you disagree or if you’d change anything up! Let’s see how big we can make this list. Also, I should probably note that not all of these liquids can be ingested. (Obviously.)
The List
Vinegar: Used for cleansing and purification potions.
Lemon Juice: Used in hexing, cursing, or revenge potions.
Cranberry Juice: Used in love potions.
Apple Juice: Used in healing, knowledge, and youth potions.
Ammonia: Used in banishing, cursing, purification, and protection
Red Wine: Love potions and potions dealing with death and the afterlife.
White Wine: Used in platonic love potions as well as success brews.
Rum: Used in potions involving spirit work.
Whisky: Another good base for potion work.
Vodka: A good base for work involving rapid banishing.
Laundry detergent: Good for cleansing potions.
Oils: Used to speed up a process.
Molasses: Used in potions intended to slow a situation down.
Rubbing Alcohol: Another good base for cleansing and purification.
Hydrogen Peroxide: Used in healing potions.
Milk: Used in potions to promote sleep and peace.
Sour Milk: Used to cause nightmares or in potions designed to torment.
Orange Juice: For potions of solar importance, healing, success.
Soda Water: Used in potions designed to encourage laughter and giddiness.
Ginger Ale: Used in health or healing potions.
Olive Juice: Used in peace potions.
Honey: Used in potions to sweeten up another’s disposition.
Syrup: Used in abundance and prosperity potions.
Beer: Used in potions intended to induce slumber.
Clam Juice: Used in aphrodisiacs.
Cough Syrup: Used in healing potions and to make someone ‘cough it up.’
Soy Sauce: Used in protection potions. (Thanks Lexa Rosean for this one!)
Pineapple Juice: Used in abundance potions and fidelity potions.
Coconut Milk: Used in spiritual and magical cleansing potions.
Ice: Solid first, then melted for transformation potions.
Coffee: Really, a potion in and of itself in my book.
Vanilla Extract: In small amounts, used in passion potions.
Witch Hazel: Used in communication and cleansing potions.
What else can you all think of?

A spread for change
Change is what propels us ever onward through life. It’s in our environment and it’s within ourselves at all times. Every moment is a chance to start anew and change is the catalyst.
So here’s a spread to help you figure out how change has shaped you then, now, and how it will impact you in the future!
1. What caused change in your past?
2. What’s causing change presently in your life?
3. Based on your past and present change, this is the outcome.
4. If the future is positive, then the fourth card is what’s preventing that future. If the card is negative, then the fourth card is what you can do to prevent that negative future.

The darker seasons are upon us, so here are some reminders for my fellow witches:
-society forgets that this is supposed to be a time of rest, make sure that you don’t! Take extra time for rest and sleep.
Here are some Very Good Reasons to take walks in fall and winter:
- take walks in nature to remind yourself of the natural cycles and connect with nature.
-take walks for some of that fresh, cold air. It will cleanse you from your troubles and calm your mind. Try to not listen to music and instead listen to the silence.
- walks are also great to talk to your gods, guides and/or ancestors. Give thanks to them and to nature itself.
- prepare your body and immune system for the winter and gradually get used to the cold by spending time outside.
- the air in a forest or a park is a lot cleaner than that in most public spaces, especially with the germs flying around right now.
- avoid the public transport system by walking whenever its possible for you!
- also, appreciate all of these beautiful colors autumn has to offer! There are a lot of energies to be found in them:
- the birds leave the cold weather and fly towards a climate thats more suited for their needs. Do the same and reevaluate whom and what you give your energies to, and who you share your space with. Leave unhealthy situations behind whenever possible.
-sew or draw sigils in your jackets, scarfs and hats to keep you warm and dry
- the bright lights, songs and consumerism of christmas aren’t natural and can be very draining. Don’t beat yourself up for not being as productive as usual. Few plants grow and bloom during winter.
- ward yourself before visiting christmas markets (or any supermarket, let’s be honest). I like to spray my scarfs with protective sprays, and this can be done with any piece of clothing. But make sure to always let them fully dry, folks!
- I cannot stress this enough, never underestimate self care and rest at this time of year. Remind yourself that nature itself survives winter by going to sleep. Never feel bad for resting.
- evergreens in the home will help you to stay healthy, positive and in touch with nature. It’s great and easy color magic and perfect for closet witches.
- I smoke cleanse most gifts I get. I do nkt need anyones negative energies hafting on things I might put up in my bedroom.
- catch every ray of sunshine you can get, you will need it. If you are prone to seasonal depression, consult with a doctor. For me personally, supplements have helped a great deal :)
-clean your personal space. Your bed, your room, your house. Fall and winter are important times to look within, make sure you have a welcoming space to do somthe state of our home often influences the state of our mind.
- ginger and cinnamon (and often lemon) can be added to most hot drinks and will give you some extra warmth and energy even on the coldest days.
- hot water plus ginger in the morning, with honey in the afternoon and instead with chilies in the evening will do wonders for your immune system!
- if you buy crystals on the christmas market make sure you get what you pay for.
- when you spend time with old friends and family during the festivities, communicate your (new) boundaries clearly and calmly, and do not force yourself to spend time with those who cannot respect them. Your wellness is the most important thing and you should treat it accordingly! Sigils and spells to improve your patience and clear communication can help here.
- if you must spend time around toxic people, cleanse yourself afterwards and remind yourself that people act and speak only for and against themselves and never against you!
- I love you and I wish you a beautiful and holy time. I hope you will rest and find peace this winter so you can have a wonderful start into a new year full of blessings and growth
