a day in the life of a green witch.
to honor nature and use it in our crafts.
it shows in the way we hang our herbs to the flowers strewn about our home. it's in everything we touch, and everything we see.
we respect nature, and the earth thanks us for it.
the energy tonight is so intense. cherish it, work with it, and most importantly, respect it.
this type of energy is rare. remember to light a candle to honor the blue moon, amidst whatever else you have planned for tonight.
happy samhain ✨🕯️
☽ Moon Water ☾
The dew of the morning spreads across every surface, sealing the magical charge of the moon inside.

and i need to address a few things, as well. i'm a pretty neutral page, and being uplifting to those just starting out in their practice is something i enjoy doing. positivity and encouragement is extremely important.
i've been seeing a lot of "you're a real witch when___" lately
no. just no.
you're a real witch regardless if you're self sufficient or not. look up spells if it's needed, find a mentor if it's needed, educate and find yourself with your pace. it does not mean you're any less.
you're a real witch if you don't have a grimoire, or you don't have your spells memorized.
you're a real witch if you fall into depression and find it hard to practice. make sure your deities know this, find little ways to keep them happy.
you're a real witch, regardless of race, sexuality, whether you're just starting out or you've been practicing for years.
you're a real witch if you're not gatekeeping.
don't discourage our young witches. they need reassurance too. there is no wrong or right way to practice, as long as you're aware of which practices are closed and shouldn't be used unless you're from that heritage.
you're a witch, period. stop telling people that they have to fit a certain criteria to be a "real witch"
i don't believe that you become a witch. it was within and around you all along.
every time you'd collect rocks as a child, or spoke to the moon when you needed comfort, or even when that warm, tingling sensation would hit you while walking in the woods. it was always the little things that didn't quite make sense.
it was calling to you, remember that. you're no less just because you figured it out later.
self care is going into a thrift store and buying random items that work well with your craft. jars, bowls, candle holders, spice shelves, otherwise nonwitchy objects that can easily be personalized. i've bought some of my most favorite alter items from thrift stores.
it's a surreal feeling. and i wanna feel it again.
perhaps, soon, i will be one with nature.
where i've always belonged.
do you feel it, too? everything feels off within the veil. the Earth is giving off signals, and no one can seem to read them. is she distressed? is she happy?
something's coming and it's eerie to see how many other witches feel it too.
moss —
it grows everywhere. it takes over even the simplest of structure. but do not fret, because once you appreciate its' beauty, it will become your friend. it is necessary.

Green Witch Tip:
Cork Planters | Carved Chalices!
If you have limited space, or you enjoy tiny versions of pretty things like the goblins we are, cork planters are the perfect option for you!
I typically use a pocket knife to carve out the hole, and then a dremel to smooth the edges and/or make a creative design! The nails are typically used for stability. Remember to use succulent specific mulch or potting soil!
I also enjoy carving mini chalices like above, especially for my altar! You can add all sorts of things inside, like herbs, succulents, salts, crystals, etc! Whatever your deity/ies may desire.

mushrooms are forest babies, sacred and protected and loved. respect them. they are a powerful tool.
your grimoire does not have to be full of water colors, or illustrations, or dried plants, or essential oil infused ink. your pages do not have to be pristine, you don't have to include aesthetic tapes, or pretty polaroids.
you're allowed to mess up. your grimoire can have tears, or burns, or coffee stains, or wrinkled pages from the time you spilled your tea all over the place. it can be written in .5 mechanical pencil led or crayon.
the point is, your grimoire is apart of you. and if you love it, then you're doing it right.
