reconciliation spell

Hello, i just wanted to ask something about reconciliation spell, someone that does witchcraft told me that the spell for getting back with your ex is not permanent and it has bad effects like bad luck, you lose your job, you will have anger issues and even get very obsesed, and i was wondering if this applies for a reconciliation spell or what bad effects has (only white magic) and which is the best spell to get back with an ex and make things work and what would be the bad effects

Plot Twist September

I’m open to suggestions, every September for the last 3 years I’ve had an event that has changed the entire course of my year going into the next year, a plot twist. I typically don’t even realize it until it’s too late. I cannot mentally afford another plot twist and with this September coming up I’m in fear of whats coming next. Any suggestions on how to cheat fate. I’m fully open to suggestions. And no I’m not opposed to taking advice from any star witches out there, not a practitioner myself but some of my friends are.

Candle question!

Hello! I’m new to Reddit and I’m new to witchcraft. The pictures you see are of my altar and of a spell jar I just did (sweetening jar). As I was conducting the spell, I noticed my pink candle burning much quicker and creating a much larger wax “mess” than the other three candles. My intentions for this jar was to increase my hope, intuition, wisdom, and over all self-love and love from those around me.

I did break the candles to set a time frame, making sure the candles were as equal as possible. But the pink candle (which was the longest) burnt out first. The green and the blue candles burnt out next, but the purple candle took the longest. At the time of posting this, the candle is still burning. (As per the last picture.)

The candles are sitting on a fire safe dish with salt. I drew a love/ self love sigil into the salt before I placed and lit the candles.

I have a generalized idea as to what the candles’ activities could mean, but what do you all think?

First bond strengthening/sweetening jar- Am I doing this right??

Hey y’all! Baby witch here and I’m looking for some opinions/advice from people who have more experience with this kind of work than I do.
I’ve technically been practicing for about 3 years, but most of my practice has been tarot and spell work focused on myself—protection, cleansing, money/abundance, things like that. This is my first time really doing a sweetening jar and a cord/bond strengthening spell involving another person, so I’m definitely still learning and I’m curious how other people would interpret what I’ve been seeing.
For the sweetening jar, I used honey, brown sugar and cinnamon along with my petition. I also added some personal taglocks to it. I’ve been keeping the sun and 4 of wands with the jar because those were the tarot cards I felt drawn to use for the intention behind it.
For the bond-strengthening work, I used two red candles, one representing me and one representing him, with red cord tied between them. I also tied knots into the cord with my intentions.
What has me really curious is the way the candles have been burning. (For context candles were lit in a closet with zero airflow no fan no ac vent) His candle is on the right and mine is on the left. At different points one flame will get noticeably taller than the other, then they’ll switch. There has also been a pretty noticeable wax bridge forming between the two candles, and as they’ve burned that connection/bridge has gotten thicker and more defined rather than separating. His candle burned down toward his written name, and I waited until the burn reached that area before ending that session. I’ve been snuffing the candles instead of blowing them out because I’ve been working this over multiple sessions rather than just letting them completely burn down at once.
I know candle behavior can have completely mundane explanations too—wick length, wax, how the candles are positioned, etc.—so I’m not automatically taking every little thing as a sign lol. I’m just really interested in how people who practice candle magic would traditionally read a burn like this, especially the wax bridge and the flames changing dominance throughout the burn.
Also, would you keep the knotted red cord with the sweetening jar after finishing the candle work? Right now I’ve been considering keeping it with the jar along with The Sun and Four of Wands, but since this is my first time doing this type of work I’d love to hear what more experienced practitioners would do.
Please be nice lol I’m still learning this side of witchcraft 😂 I’m not looking for anyone to tell me something is 100% guaranteed to happen—I mostly want to understand the symbolism, candle reading, and whether I set everything up in a way that makes sense.
Thanks 🖤

Succubi/Incubi Exorcism (For Men)

To keep this concise, applicable, etc. I'll be making it relatively very short and sweet for people who wish to read it through and reduce the chances of nocturnal emissions and astral attacks. I have fought these types of entities since the beginning of my life on this earth in vivid sleep paralysis, astral projection, lucid dreaming, and have noted the ins and outs of their existence and would like to share more on how to exorcise Lilitu and break generations curses and hexes with these beings because these creatures can most definitely actually kill you in your sleep or cause death in your life at worst if you're not protected from life-force drainage or any other means coming from someone who has came close to death from suffocating as these entities strangled me many many times. To start you must realize all Lilitu are prostitute slaves of Lilith and are gender fluid in nature so they can change into a succubus when attacking men to steal their semen and lifeforce then change into an incubus when attacking women to impregnate them astrally or physically and spread hexes and curses to any entities involved in the process and can also initiate people into a Lilitu/Sex pest/Preta hungry ghost in their next life cycle cursed to insatiably engage in sexual acts and reproduce to spread the curse of Lilith (this is all on the wiki and in many old writings). Remember that this is all from personal experiences and research that lines everything up so do as you will, all info I refer to can be found on the wiki but I myself am also simply making connections and putting it in a digestible form so to clarify, I believe these things without a shadow of doubt and will definitely die on most of these hills because of how vividly I've experienced these things in lucid dreams and astral projection probably better than most have ever experienced. From my own experience Lilith is the same as the Old Hag sleep paralysis demon and works alongside the shadow people and the Hatman (relatively widely known as the leader of the shadow people, discarnated souls wandering the astral spreading their own forms of hexes misery and misfortune much like Lilith & the Lilitu) and is known as a water element based demon. To counteract the fallen water element one must strengthen the flow of their kundalini and the inner fire that rises within them while simultaneously protecting it and gaining astral power enough to crush these astral parasites through herbs, (eating and drinking organic and heirloom heritage foods only is your BEST bet because these foods and drinks are heighest in energy and will strengthen you enough to be untouchable), I've also found that shifting my practices to more heritage, indigenous (non-colonized & unadulterated by any conquistador's cultures) works best and keeps you protected from imposter entities, sleeping in as cold of an environment as possible (I have invested in a 700$ ac that gets to 60° just to ward of demons and get a good nights sleep), ice baths, lighting as much heritage non-genetically modified or engineered incense and beeswax candles all without paraffins or toxins (with this you just need to do research). The coldness serves to help with semen retention because this is the first thing I will put out there for people because spilling seed in any way whether in a dream or not when you're haunted by demons feeds them by slowing bloodflow to the root chakra and reducing inflammation in the entire body especially the lower regions. When the body is inflamed or overheated especially at night, demons can manipulate the nervous system especially when there's enough subtle stimulation to amplify in the lower regions like blankets (its better to sleep naked and with thin heirloom cotton blankets like egyptian cotton because heritage/heirloom is higher in energy and with both legs bent laying on your back) through subtle energies much like how in Avatar the Last Airbender water benders have it in them to blood bend, I hope you can see where I'm going with this if you're a man. Use many bitter herbs that are known to kill parasites or keep away pests I've found, burn them and ingest them orally, black walnut hull is great, use many fire element corresponding herbs to build sexual fire within the kundalini, use lucid dreaming herbs like dark lesser blue lotus, egyptian light blue lotus, yellow lotus, pink lotus, sleep herbs, silene capensis, use black ginger (a testosterone boosting herb i've found is very powerful and doesn't overly contribute to nocturnal emissions), use black soy (heirloom heritage soy that works similarly to almond milk in ayurveda for treating nocturnal emissions), use chasteberry (monks used to use this to reduce sex drive and in severe cases can be used directly around or on the phallus), use bala herb (is used to directly treat nocturnal emissions and I'd rate this as the most important). I will not condone drug usage but if one chooses to use them please make sure they too are organic and heirloom/heritage. In ayurveda, it's said that one should take less testosterone boosting herbs for a while and it also mentions many other things I have written that I have taken directly from ayurvedic medicine and I will also note that it says to avoid hypersexual activity (which should be obvious in all cases). Ritualize all of these practices as much as you can, get creative, and be mindful and smart about all of your practives and you will get out as much as you put in. Remember that above all, demons feed off of your deadly sins, habits, ignorance, misery, misfortune, shame, mental state, etc. so if you have any addictions or blockages of any sort, these MUST be addressed and taken seriously with urgency before anything can transpire in your favor because purification of your soul, mind, body, etc are all synergetic. Always address your own distortions, confront them, don't fall into shame, be a good person and do works for others, give these demons no room to grow stronger and suffocate them from any form of energy. If necessary visit a therapist, an ayurvedic practitioner to address nocturnal emissions, a sex addiction specialist, anything to address the root causes. Emphasis on the doing for others and dharma because these things can and will help things lean in your favor and destroy sexual hexes. These beings feed on distorted philosophy, ill intent, shame, etc. Be 100% honest with yourself and purify your shadow and it will have no choice but to leave you alone. (A few more things to avoid and to consider before I wrap things up: do NOT use generative ai, look at it, or listen to it. It opens you up to demons because demons love it and it's energy signature. Likewise avoid listening to 440hz frequencies too often and don't rely on any popular music app for 432hz frequencies because they automatically are shifted from 432hz to 440 and other fallen frequencies tend to be added, rather make your own or convert the frequencies from the original yourself. Avoid having random people you don't know nearly enough about do spellwork or any witchcraft for you including readings. Don't use just any geometries, sigils, spells, mantras. The more heritage, indigenous, aboriginal and correspondent to your own bloodline while keeping in mind and being aware of the fact that trickster entities do in fact exist. Be mindful and apply what you can but know exactly what you are getting into. The occult and magick is nothing at all to play around with as it can effect both this life and the next so know exactly if you're willing to make a commitment and what everything you choose to do implies.) If you want to get more information I will be posting a lot more so my account is definitely available.

new witch 🩷

hai! new witch here! just for some background, I have never been religious but as I learned about paganism and witchcraft a few years back I really felt attracted to it. I attempted to start my craft a year ago but I wasnt properly educated or prepared, so I ended up letting my anxiety and ocd get the best of me and stop me from continuing (i never even did any spells yet lol). Now, I feel ready and I have done soo so much research and ive been taking notes from different sources! anyway, this is a pic of my first spell I did a few days ago, a simple protection spell on myself with the materials I had, salt, and a white candle carved with my name and a protection sigil. this path feels right and ive been seeing my lucky number 44 or 444 an insane amount of times just as I did last year when i started. anyway, this is my first post and I just wanted to say hi! any tips for future spells or info on anything witchy is appreciated! 💓💓

Can l discard some cards from the deck? Witch’s Way Home deck

I have bought the deck and love all 39 cards. The 3 on this picture are complete nonsense for me. There are also some angels that l can keep but will not shuffle. So l just want to put those away or even bin those. How people feel about “adjusting” the oracle decks? I feel like l should just go with my gut and completely ignore the three with no hard feelings left hehe but some comments say about the deck being unstable or something. I am sceptical. Should l abandon the deck altogether ? Feels unfair for the 39 cards that work perfect for me. Feels like the creator tried too hard. Its almost missing unicorns (that l cannot stand either) and we would have full marks heheh Thoughts?? Thank you !!

How to safely make your own sigil?

Okay so long story short.. I’ve been meaning to get a coverup tattoo for a while now (I got an initial), and because of how small the tattoo is, I’m very limited with what I can do with it. I’ve recently been looking into spirituality and witchcraft and I’m thinking maybe the easiest way to go around it is make my own personal sigil, something I identify with and would have special meaning to me. However, would it be okay for me to have it tattooed on myself? How do I make sure that my sigil is safe and doesn’t have any hidden meanings behind it? How do I make it unique? Is there any rules on how a sigil should look? I’ll attach a picture of my tattoo so you guys can let me know what I could do with it :,) any advice or help would be very appreciated!!!!

I think someone cursed me with a yeast infection…

Okay, I know this sounds really weird, and I don’t have any proof, but this is something I’ve been experiencing. I’m obviously just an average girl, and I never really had problems with my body. I’ve always considered myself healthy and never had any major issues. I know even healthy people can still get yeast infections or other infections, but I had never experienced anything like this before.

However, I had this roommate who really didn’t like me. Honestly, I don’t want to make assumptions, but I think it might have been a race thing because she also acted strangely toward the other girls. She was the only white girl, and I genuinely wanted to be nice to her, talk to her, and maybe go get lunch together since she was my roommate. But every time I tried talking to her, she would act really bitchy toward me. She would look at me weird, stare at me, and make low-key racist comments about how I “act so white” for someone of my ethnicity.
Eventually, I stopped talking to her because I wasn’t going to waste my energy trying to communicate with someone who obviously didn’t want me around.

She would also have her friends over extremely late at night, sometimes close to the morning. One night, around 2 a.m., I politely asked her if they could keep the noise down. She just looked at me, and one of her friends stared at me too. Her other friend was the only one who apologized, and they eventually went into her room.

This happened frequently. She would also be on her phone, screaming and talking at maximum volume in the middle of the night. I would usually wear headphones, but sometimes even that didn’t help. Eventually, I reached my breaking point and told her, “Shut up. It’s 1 a.m. You need to chill the fuck out.”
She snapped at me, and I snapped back because I was tired of dealing with her behavior. She then started accusing me of not taking out the trash or cleaning the dishes, even though I barely used the kitchen. I usually ate at the dining hall because I paid for a meal plan, and I kept emergency food in my room. I also used my own plastic plates, cups, and utensils because I had made it clear that I wasn’t responsible for cleaning up after other people.

I also called her out about her drinking because she would leave beer bottles all over the floor and table. I told her she needed to stop expecting other people to clean up after her. I admittedly went too far when I made a comment about her beer belly and her drinking, and she got extremely pissed off and stormed away. I felt bad about saying that, but I was also frustrated because I felt like she needed to understand that nobody else was responsible for her mess.

She also had this other friend I mentioned earlier who would stare at me strangely. At one point, I overheard them talking about witchcraft because apparently this friend had been practicing it for four years. I don’t know exactly what they were talking about, but at one point they were screaming, “I KNOW THAT BITCH IS EATING MY FOOD!” even though I wasn’t.
They were apparently talking about me because someone else in our apartment eventually told them to shut the fuck up or they were going to call the police.
After all of this, my roommate unexpectedly moved out. I was honestly surprised because she had been living there before me and had told her friends she was planning on staying for another lease term.

When I was leaving for the airport, I caught a glimpse of her friend, and she gave me the most evil-looking stare I’ve ever seen. It didn’t feel like a normal “fuck you” stare. It felt more like, “You’re going to get what’s coming to you.”
After I arrived in another state, I started having these really weird dreams about an ugly, old hag-like witch. She would repeatedly say my name, and around the same time, I started feeling a strange tingling and itching in my vaginal area. By the third day, the itching had gotten much worse.

I also started having more dreams about the witch whispering my name. The itching became so intense that I had to go to urgent care and spend $200 on an antifungal medication. They also prescribed me an antibiotic because they thought I had a UTI.

The treatment didn’t completely fix the problem, though, and the itching eventually came back. I went back to urgent care a second time, and thankfully, my symptoms are much better now. I still have some itching around my anus, especially at night or when I wake up, but it isn’t nearly as severe as the itching I had before.
I also stopped having the dreams about the witch.

I actually started thinking about all of this while I was on the plane, and I ended up wondering if maybe someone had cursed me. I even bought a bracelet for protection, although I don’t know if I’m going to spend more money on this. Part of me wants to find a witch or someone who practices that kind of thing to put some type of protection on me.
Honestly, I don’t want revenge against my roommate. Her face is already a curse in itself. 😭

But this is me being paranoid, obviously. I did get tested, went to urgent care, and got antifungal medication and cream. So if you’re dealing with a yeast infection or any other infection, please get proper medical treatment instead of going to a witch for something that needs medical care.

spell or practice to hide your energy from past works

Does anyone know of any practice, ritual, spell, etc. that can remove energetic traces of past witchcraft? Basically, I need something that will help me keep my energy from being tied to that work; it's mainly to protect my energy from people in my past who have brought me a lot of harm.

Head feels weird?

Hi, I'm new here. I always get pressure in my head when I'm using crystals or tarot cards. It's like a headache but not painful, it's just pressure. I feel it in my ears as well. It's all crystals, not worse with certain ones. I wonder if something is trying to connect with me, as sometimes it goes away after I pull some tarot cards.

Admittedly I've been out of touch with my spirituality for about 5 years after having children but I'm getting back to myself, and I just wondered if anyone else feels something similar and what it might mean.

Help with a creativity spell jar

Good morning everyone. I'm making this post so that those of you who are more experienced with creating spell jars can give me some guidance.

I'm a writer, and like almost everyone here, I practice witchcraft.

Recently, I found a recipe for a spell jar on one of those free apps on the Play Store. It's called "Creativity Boost."

The recipe is as follows:

  • A glass jar or bottle (energetically cleansed)
  • Himalayan salt / Pink salt: To promote positive energy
  • Carnelian: For energy flow + vitality
  • Citrine: To increase motivation + creativity
  • Sodalite: To promote self-expression
  • Rosemary: For a creative boost
  • Rose petals: For self-confidence + creativity
  • Cloves: To clear the mind and creative blocks

All the ingredients are placed inside the jar, and the jar is then sealed with blue candle wax. Personally, though, I was planning on using sealing wax because I think it would look nicer.

I have a few questions:

1. Does the appearance of the jar matter in any way? I'm asking because I was planning to use a bottle shaped like a fat woman, and I'm not sure whether that could affect the spell somehow.

2. Are the ingredients and their associations correct, or should I change/add anything?
It's worth mentioning that I mostly practice tarot reading, and I haven't really made spell jars before, aside from the classic protection jar.

3. Should I take advantage of the energy of the full moon on August 28th, or are these kinds of spells not THAT affected by lunar factors?

Thank you in advance for your help and understanding.

Plumbing hex?

My husband and I are currently building our house from the ground up which includes but is certainly not limited to running the plumbing for the "waste" water. Between gluing fittings together we started to joke about writing people's names on the inside of the tube as a form of a hex, washing over the names with the waste. Now I want to clarify that these names are not just random people, these are people in power that have made decisions to make people's lives awful. We've heard from other sources of hiding hexes behind the toilet to add some extra oomph and keep them out of sight. Putting them under the pipes under the floor would also be a nod to shoe magic and walking on them.

Would there be any repercussions from keeping the names permanently under our house? We won't be able to get rid of them as they will be under a slab of concrete.
