What are some of the top mistakes you see new witches make (aside from not warding)?
Another wonderful question like the last one! I love that you know about my not-warding complaints. This is not meant to mock or shame new witches in any way, you guys are welcome here and I hope you know that. It's just for education and a bit of fun.
Let's start with a lightning round, here are all things that are false:
You need to be born into a witch family
You need to be a woman
Certain beliefs are required or you can't believe in God
You have to work with spirits and deities
You must pick a witch type
You need a metaphysical or witchy store to get supplies
Specific kinds of tools or supplies must be used
You need to be Pagan/Wiccan
Witchcraft is the only magical practice there is
Tools must be gifted
You need an altar & fancy supplies
Here are some further mistakes:
Not following mundane safety tips Practice fire safety! Wear gloves when you forage! Don't ingest essential oils! Don't take medical advice from strangers online! I see a long list of things spread around that are just really physically or mentally unhealthy for people.
Believing something just because you heard it in passing Just because you heard somewhere witches have to use crystals doesn't mean it's true. Take things with a grain of salt. Consider them. Cross reference. Knowing how to research and find solid information will serve you as a witch FOREVER.
Missing out on core practices Warding is one of them but also goes for cleansing, charging, grounding. You can decide to not do these things and I can't stop you but you need to know what they are first.
Jumping into spell work Doing a simple low risk spell after some research is fine but I see people trying really risky spells without any research! Backfire is a thing people.
Posting information someone could use against you Do not show exactly how you do a spell. Do not show exactly how you ward. Do not post your whole birth chart. I see witches and non witches alike do the last one and it sends me off on a tangent every time.
Lack of attention to themselves Know yourself. Find your intuition and follow it. What do you think about that? What do you believe? What do you want your path to be like? Knowing yourself and following your intuition is something that will serve you forever, just like knowing how to research.
Lack of experimentation You're a witch, not a pretentious ceremonial magician. Experiment! As you advance you can write your own spells. You can do tarot without a guide book. You can find your own ingredients. I could go on.

And I am not talking about the content on this website… I am talking about the website itself, like from a technical standpoint…
for example: the Create Post window looks like this:
but when you zoom in 200% with your browser it suddenly changes to this?
and this window doesn’t just look different, it is miles ahead of the other one in every single way, for example this his the build in text editor:
yeah, you can change color and font without doing any HTML bullshit…
And the wildest thing… you’re not limited to one kind of post with this create post window…
You want to create a hybrid post that has pictures, text, a video and music? you can just do that no problem…
Hello my loves! I am finally back with a new post! So todays post is a special one because one I love cats, and two we have hit 2500 followers! I would like to thank you all so much! I love seeing the comments on posts about how you enjoy the information and hacks!
Cats are great animals to work with if you wish to develop your intuition, as they have incredible psychic properties.
They symbolise a balance of a wild and tame personality, one that can act on a whim and be independent while also making sensible and open minded choices.
They teach us to balance the physical world with a deep awareness of natures spirit, encouraging us to embrace our spiritual side while also being able to remain grounded
A cat with tri coloured fur is supposed to be extremely lucky, and also has a extra strong protective effect on the home
A snub nosed cat is attracts wealth to its companions, and stroking any cats tail 9 times grants good luck in love
Cats were seen as protectors of the home from disease and rodents, making them an ideal household pet!
Are a sign of good luck
If you see a strange black cat for seven days straight it is a sure sign that you will recieve money
Represents that you must believe you are worthy, to develop your own personal and unique craft, and encourages you to take risks and learn from them.
Using cats fur in magic to add to your spells can contribute peacefulness, resourcefulness or grace to the spell
If you are stuck with a question of yes or no, call your cat in over a threshold and watch its paws, if its right paw crosses over first then it is a yes, left paw means no.
And thats it loves! I hope this is helpful to any cat lovers out there! Send me asks if you would like a specific topic covered and I will do my best to help! Later loves!
More grimoire pages from last night 👀 I made a few mistakes but other than that it's pretty good so far.
