Dream Work or Dream Magick can refer to a number of different things from the perspective of witchcraft and the occult practitioner. This can include but is not limited to: 

Lucid Dreaming - Also known as Oneironautics. The act of becoming aware that you are in a dream. Often the lucid dreamer is able to interact with or even control their dream from inside of it to cultivate a desired experience.

Dream Interpretation - Analyzing dreams to derive meaning from symbolism and interaction that occurs while dreaming.

Dream Divination/ Prophetic Dreams - Also known as Oneiromancy. Often paired with interpretation, the act of gaining premature or previously unknown insight on a situation through dreams. 

Dream Spirit Communication - Sending or receiving direct communication from or to spirits in a dreamscape. This can include meeting entities, spirits, gods, etc for the first time, hearing their voice, receiving a sign or confirmation, or even meeting with them face to face. 

Dream Shadow Work- Exploring the subconscious and fears through nightmares 

and Dream Spellcasting - utilizing dreams to fuel or fulfill a spell. Included in this is intentionally using lucid dreaming to astral travel or cast a particular spell in the dream world.

Broke Witch Tips - Magic on a Budget

As capitalism sets its sights on the witchcraft community, it’s easy to get caught up in all the stuff that companies try to sell you.

Alas, not all of us have the money to spend on expensive items. If we're being honest, you probably don't need such items to begin with.

For those that are curious, however, let's talk about how to do magic on a budget.

First things first, reframe what you think magic is.

Magic is not what you buy.

It’s not pricey crystals, expensive altar tools, and pretty bottles. As fun as those are, they aren't necessary to practice magic.

All you need to create magic is yourself, your intentions, and your actions.

Still, I said I would talk about how to do magic on a budget, so here are some tips that I have picked up along the way as a broke witch.

Broke Witch Tips

Upcycle what you already have into magical tools. Plenty of the stuff you already own can be used for magic. Make a simmer pot in that old cooking pot. Use the kitchen spices as your herbs in spells.

Thrift stores are great for finding cool bottles and boxes to put your herbs and other magical items in. Also great for spell bottles/jars!

You don’t need every herb under the sun, many of the most accessible (and cheapest) herbs have similar, if not the same, correspondences as the expensive ones.

Buy herbs from the grocery store or farmers market, if possible.

If you have a green thumb, grow the herbs yourself!

Tarot cards can be expensive, but you can use a deck of regular playing cards for cartomancy if needed! There are also options such as tarot apps and websites that allow you to use their digital tarot decks for free.

Make your own tarot or oracle deck if you're artistic and have the time/energy to do so!

You don’t need to have an expensive cast-iron cauldron, just find a fire safe bowl or container. For me, I use a handmade bowl that I got at a fair in my hometown! Works like a charm.

The dollar store is a great place to find inexpensive candles, usually they’re tea lights but you might get lucky and even find some chime candles.

If you're working with deities: plenty of them like hand-made items for offerings! So you don’t need to go out and break the bank just to buy an expensive statue.

This is not a post to shame the folks who own expensive things for witchcraft. I’m sure most of us would agree that if we had the money to go all out, we certainly would! This is just a post for those of us that can’t afford costly goods but would still like to have physical items when practicing magic.

Feel free to add your tips for practicing low-cost magic!

Have a lovely day <3

Ok, witches! I gotta tell you about meteorological symbols!

There’s one for every weather condition you can think of! You can probably find a longer list in the back of a dictionary, or just search Google images.

You can use them as sigils on their own, or use them as inspiration to make your own sigils!

Use them for weather summoning!

Use the symbols as a substitute for certain weather conditions! For example, if a spell calls for rainwater and you live in the desert, use the meteorological symbol for heavy rain.

Use the metaphorical attributes of the symbols in spells! For example, a hurricane for added energy, or fog for concealment.

The list goes on!

How To Make Flower Soaps

DIY Recipe here.

Series of Unfortunate Events curse

-Make a witches ladder and tie it to your target however you’d like (hair, name, etc)

-Tie in items that relate to unlucky things 

used up travel toothpaste-> they never seem to have toothpaste when they need it

a key with a ‘?’ drawn in sharpie-> you’re gonna be late to work, douche

empty battery-> they’re always just too tired to really get any work done

loose pieces of yarn-> so they always have that one strand of hair tickling their arm

a pushpin-> step on something sharp, asshole

a ripped piece of paper with the words “REALLY IMPORTANT THING”->so they always forget that one really important thing

an empty toilet roll-> every. single. time.

broken birthday candle->nobody remembers their birthday

Charge that sucker with your annoyed motherfucking energy and swirl some fucking smoke on it with a few spritzes of cayenne water for good measure. 

Now stuff it in an old sock and forget about it. Or hang it up. You do you.
