Should I use psalms in my witchcraft?

What brings this question is that I wanted to make spirtual baths and sell them online for others for convenience. I tell my sister the idea(she've been practicing spiritually and witchcraft for about 5 years) and she ask what is exactly is my idea?

I explained my product to her and she said, "if it's a ready to take bath, than you should pray using psalms to bless the herbs. But if it just ingredients for the customer to use and bless themselves than that's fine too."

I said I don't really want to use psalms because I'm not really comfortable using prayers (think it's from religious trauma) and it uses "god" in it.

She said it's basically a book of spells and it fine for me to use it and we were raise catholic.

I started my witchcraft journey this year and have been studying mexican magic/Brujeria and our practices.

Is it fine or should I just make my own "prayer" and enchant the herbs with intention?

My brother died

We died I guess over the weekend? I don’t talk to my family & my parents still haven’t even told me. I found out through my ig DMs. Anyways, we did NOT have a good relationship, but I’d like to maybe burn candles for him or do a spell that guides him into the next life as we were raised Buddhist

Was my ex a Bruja?

Met a woman 6 years ago, i was drawn to she looked ethereal, but she had a boyfriend so i never pursued her. A year later we met online and she was single, i felt like it was a divine calling lol we started talking, hit it off blah blah blah. We had everything in common she was like my female counterpart. Around the time of my birthday, 4 months after we started dating, she gave me a present, it was like a statue/figure of two skeletons hugging she wrote our initials on their heads and "para siempre" on the base of the figure, and a bracelet around the entire thing.
We ended up splitting 2 weeks later Imao. The past 5 years shes been the only ex i think of, i see her face when i look at certain women, and worst of all Ive been dreaming about her, more frequently lately. Ive been very capable of moving on with all of my exes, even the ones ive dated for years, but not this girl ive dated for a couple months. Not familiar with witchcraft/voodoo/ brujeria.

a question for all my experienced brujas,brujos, and brujes(brujxs)

for context, I am also Latina and I am also a witch. and I was raised heavily around my culture, which also includes catholicism constantly in my life, but I also grew up around things such as Ocha (Santería, others call it Lukumi) and Espiritísmo. and they would work with Saint imagery whether by working with the actual Saint, or working with a spirit behind these saints like an Orisha(or where I am from, Oricha) but I am not initiated & while I have family that do practice, especially close family. it does not mean I can practice, so saints obviously exist, as in the catholic saint. but here’s the thing, I do not get along with the bible, and I have some issues & concerns with some of the practices. but another conflict is, I feel lost & conflicted. brujería is the only thing that brings me comfort because it connects me to my culture, but to work without the saints makes me feel disconnected. but, at the same time. how can I work without the saints but not utilize the bible? or in other words, get along with the institution of catholicism. if anyone can give me their perspectives, views, opinions, and what they do that would be helpful!

in Spanish/En Español

Una pregunta para todas mis brujas, brujos y brujes experimentados (brujxs)

Para el contexto, también soy latina y también soy una bruja. Y me crié en gran medida en torno a mi cultura, que también incluye el catolicismo constantemente en mi vida, pero también crecí en torno a cosas como Ocha (Santería, otros lo llaman Lukumi) y Espiritismo. Y trabajarían con imágenes de santos, ya sea trabajando con el santo real, o trabajando con un espíritu detrás de estos santos como un Orisha (o de donde soy, Oricha), pero no soy iniciado y aunque tengo familia que practique, especialmente la familia cercana. No significa que pueda practicar, por lo que obviamente existen los santos, como en el santo católico. Pero aquí está la cosa, no me llevo bien con la Biblia, y tengo algunos problemas y preocupaciones con algunas de las prácticas. Pero O en otras palabras, llevarse bien con la institución del catolicismo. Si alguien puede darme sus perspectivas, puntos de vista, opiniones y lo que hace, eso sería útil!

I really feel like it should not take that long. (Or as long as it took me JUST to clean the damn eggs..Those dudes are currently drying overnight..but seriously? LIKE 3 HOURS TO DO A DOZEN??? I know our tools and ingredients are way more effective when we make them ourselves because intention and all...BUT WHOA! Does anyone have any time-saving tips on how to make it? TIA!
