Hi, baby witch here!

I currently have a sweetening jar for my SP. My intention was that he would think of me with love and speak about me sweetly. It was fresh off the break-up and he basically criticized me a lot, without looking at himself then.

I am sure that this is working because in one recent reading, it indicated that he actually thinks of me although he tries to avoid those thoughts.

My worry now is that he’s showing attention to other people. One reading says that this is ego, his need for a reaction from me, and he is projecting his feelings about me to others.

So far, I’ve already booked a “come back to me” working for next week, but I am not sure what I can do to get him off these people in the meantime.

Will it be okay to create another sweetening jar to have his thoughts and attentiveness towards me and keep away from all distractions? Or will it be too much? If not, what other kind of working should I consider to do aside from the “come back to me?”

I sealed my jar with wax and it was last recharged yesterday. I also usually work with candles and herbs. What else should I do or avoid?

Thanks in advance! ❤️

Hi! Baby witch here! I recently booked a practitioner for a working that will involve working with Hekate, and apparently offerings to her are already part of the practitioner's process.

I'm wondering if there's anything I should do on my end to support the working or show my own respect to Hekate? Would it be appropriate for me to make a small offering or prayer myself, or is it better to leave that part to the practitioner since they're the one conducting the ritual?

I guess I just want to build a good relationship with Hekate and show that I'm sincere about my intentions, rather than just expecting her to do something for me. I don't necessarily want to interfere with the practitioner's work either.

I've already asked my practitioner approximately a million questions and I'm starting to feel like I'm annoying them 😭 so I figured I'd ask here instead. 😂

I'd really appreciate advice from people who have experience working with Hekate! What would you recommend a beginner do—or avoid doing—in this situation?

Thank you ver much! ❤️

Hello! Are there any beginner-friendly workings or boundary spells you would recommend for protecting a home?

We've been having some issues with neighbors, and I'd love to create some sort of energetic boundary around our house to keep unwanted people and negative energy away. I'm looking for something that helps discourage them from coming close to our property, keeps them from paying attention to us or watching us, and creates a peaceful, protected space around our home.

I'm especially drawn to candle magic and herbs, but I'm open to other beginner-friendly suggestions too. Would this be better approached as a ward, a boundary line/property protection working, or something else? Thank you!

Hi! I'm a baby witch who only started studying recently, and I just casted my first spells this week! I started with a protection spell, then followed it with a "ward my name" spell because I know people have been talking about me a lot lately.

I actually got into witchcraft because of a major shift in my life haha. My biggest concern right now is my reputation. I know people—especially my ex—have been talking about me, and it's made me really anxious.

For my ward my name spell, I incorporated protection, return-to-sender, abundance, and sweetening my reputation, so it was kind of a warding + transmutation working.

I was wondering if there are any other workings that is recommend for my situation. Ideally, I'd love something that helps the truth come to light, discourages gossip, protects my reputation, and clears away any unfair or negative perceptions people may have of me. I'd also like a working that encourages my ex to reflect on his actions, take accountability, and actively correct any false or misleading things he's said about me. If possible, I'd love for him to speak truthfully and more kindly about me so my name can be cleared.

I'm not looking to hex or curse, just looking for a working that shifts the overall energy surrounding my name toward truth, understanding, and goodwill.

I'm most drawn to candle magic paired with herbs, so if you have recommendations that fit that style of practice, I'd love to hear them. If there are herbs, oils, colors, or spell types that you think would work well for this situation, I'd really appreciate any guidance.

Since I'm still learning, I'd also love to know if there are any beginner-friendly workings—or even things I should avoid doing this early in my practice. Thank you so much!
