r/witchcraft

Is there possible malicious Brujeria or Mexican folk magic behind it? There's more context, before anyone jumps to conclusions - our household is Hispanic as well and my mom and I practice witchcraft as well. And we have a wonderful relationship with our neighbors. One of their sons lives on the house on the other side of ours, so they all walk across the yard all the time, no bad blood.

But he, specifically, spits on the grass/driveway often when he crosses our house. We thought it was just a macho thing, or that he spits a lot because he smokes a lot.
But today, he even rolled down the car window while driving by, to spit on the streetside edge of our driveway.
I've heard of spit being used in both harmful and protective manners, but it's always on OUR side of the driveway/grass. We know he's spiritual in some way, because he's asked my mom for rosemary from our plants to help cleanse his house.

So... those of you familiar with Mexican folk witchcraft... What do you think? What should I do in case it's malicious?
My mom already walked the property line and sprayed vinegar around to cleanse, and we've always had wards.

Merry Meet,

I have been searching for a simple, hooded ritual robe or dress. I got scammed on Etsy already. Though I have already received a refund, it's probably too late to have anything ready for my first Pagan festival later this month.

I'm hoping you have recommendations on where to find something that's natural fabric because I don't want to burst into flames immediately when working with fire.

I'm grateful for any suggestions you might have.

See comments for pictures!

I'm trying to gauge if the witch community in general likes this sort of thing and what someone would be willing to pay for something like this.

This is a Talisman/Altar pouch. It has a pocket on the back that I keep small tokens or crystals or other various every day carry things in. I clip it to whatever bag I'm using. It's about 4 inches long and made with some nicer materials (velvet and silk) and a heavy duty clip. This is the first one (she's a bit rough but I still love her) and it's been on my bag for about 3 years now. I have made a couple of them in the past and have been told I should make and sell them but I've never really thought about it too hard.

There's a metaphysical store opening in my town and they are interested in carrying local artisans stuff and I thought I might try making a bunch to sell but would love to know if it's worth looking into before I really commit!

Hello everyone,

As the title says, I need help identifying (what I think is) a deity.

I'm pretty new to my spiritual journey and a few months ago, I started meditating daily. During a meditation, I saw a young girl, probably about 14 years old with thick black hair and tan skin wearing a white dress standing next to a child version of me. This made an impression on me since I hadn't seen her before. Shortly after that, life got busy and I stopped meditating for a while. I picked meditation back up last week and last night while I meditated I saw the dark haired girl again but this time she was an adult, probably in her late twenties or so, wearing a white dress and sitting on a chaise next to some tall white columns. Her hair was very thick, slightly frizzy, and she was making some interesting movements with her hands as if she was beckoning to me.

I'm wondering if this figure sounds familiar to anyone. It could also be a spirit guide or maybe my version of the Goddess, but I wanted to see what you all think. Have a beautiful day ❤️

Hi everyone,

Is it safe to do a cord cutting ritual on my ex when we have a child together? I just want to cut my emotional connections with him as they’re very strong. I was experiencing domestic abuse from him and I was deeply trauma bonded…
I’ve separated from him for 6 months now! But I still am struggling to move on (even though he’s moved on already :/ )
Anyway, does anyone have any tips or advice. Is it okay to still cut ties with him romantically and spiritually without our daughter involved?

Thanks
