This is one of the most important skill to learn for beginner witches. Practicing magic and witchcraft tends to attract a lot of positive and negative energies, so it is important for you to regularly cleanse your home to reset the space. There are many different ways of cleansing your home using the 4 elements.
–
🌪️ Start by opening your windows and letting some fresh air in. 🌪️ Burn palo santo wood to clear the air and reset energies. 🌪️ In a small cauldron, burn cleansing herbs like rosemary or lavender and walk from room to room to disperse the smoke.
–
💧 Clean your floor using a herbal floor wash (rosemary, sage, bay leaves). 💧 Make a cleansing spray with salt water, rosemary or lavender. 💧 Leave a small dish of Florida water in rooms that need cleansing.
–
🔥 If possible, let the sunlight in as much as possible. 🔥 Inscribe the word ‘peace’ on a candle and let it burn out. 🔥 Place burnt-looking crystals like smoky quartz and black tourmaline in your entrance as they collect negative energies.
–
🌱 To cleanse your witch tools, place them on the dirt near your houseplants. 🌱 Use your besom (aka broom) to sweep dust and dirt from your home. 🌱 Finish your cleansing at your entrance door by releasing negative energies back to the earth.

Candle magic is one of my favorite type of ritual, because it is relatively simple to setup, and non-expensive. You just need a candle, and fire to light it up. If you want the spell to be even more powerful, feel free to carve symbols or sigils on the candle before lighting it. Then sit down, observe the flame, and think about a question that is worrying you.
–
⚪ White candles: healing, purification, innocence, meditation, peace
⚫ Black candles: strength, negative energies, resilience, self-control
🟤 Brown candles: intuition, animal protection, stability, decisions
🟣 Purple candles: ambition, power, focus, concentration, inspiration
🔵 Blue candles: happiness, calm, laughter, relaxation, harmony, water
🟢 Green candles: luck, love, fertility, birth, health, success, earth
🟡 Yellow candles: imagination, divination, intelligence, energy, air
🟠 Orange candles: authority, changes, control, support, versatility
🔴 Red candles: love, brave, blood, passion, death, sex, fire
–
🔥 Candle will not light: the question cannot be answered anymore, because things are already in movement, you cannot turn back now.
🔥 Strong, stable flame: the answer to your question is “yes”.
🔥 Weak, small flame: the answer to your question is “no”.
🔥 Dancing flame: there is chaotic, undisciplined energy present. You need to focus and meditate before taking any decision at the moment.
🔥 Crackling flame: spirits might be present in the room, and they would like to speak to you. Be open to their message.
🔥 A lot of smoke is coming out: the universe is helping you cleanse yourself and your room, leaving space for new opportunities and energies.
🔥 Candle will not go out: the spirits are telling you that the ritual is not over. Ask yourself if your question was the right one, or if there is anything that needs to be further discussed.
1) Scry Half Asleep
Go to a quiet place, and dim the lights.
Close your eyes and ask your higher power a question.
Pay attention to what you see. Names… numbers… faces… dates.
Once the visions stop, open your eyes and note them down.
After a few days, see if and how they manifested.
I once saw an old clock and heard the word “Praha”. I ended up being sent to Prague on a fully paid trip unexpectedly.
At first, your visions will mean nothing. They will be shallow. A McDonald’s signage… A TV commercial… This is your intuition warming up. Soon enough, it will be sprinting. As long as you keep going.
2) Designate People to Tarot
To a beginner, the characters in tarot can feel out of reach and intimidating. Bring them down to earth.
Does Strength remind you of your mother? Is she calm and fearless in the face of danger?
Does The Fool remind you of Harry Potter? Is he young and untrained, but rich in nerve and courage?
Do you see yourself in the Seven of Pentacles? Always planting seeds that are never quite ripe enough for harvest?
The next time you read tarot, you will not be seeing strangers, but people you know by heart. This is how your intuition can connect to the cards.
3) Record Your Dreams
Keep a journal on your nightstand.
The moment you wake up, write down what you remember. No matter how meaningless, no matter how strange.
Did you see yourself naked in public? Or late for class? Perhaps falling from a building? The theme here is fear.
Did you see a younger version of yourself? In a playground? Maybe eating a snack no longer sold today? The theme is nostalgia.
Analyze your own dreams. Research them further if you like.
This is you bridging the gap between your conscious and subconscious. This is you taming your intuition.
4) Know People’s Zodiac Signs
Be curious about your teachers’, superiors’ and peers’ astrological personality, even if only through their Sun sign.
Watch how the Air signs harmonize with Fire, yet clash with Earth and Water.
See how a Scorpio is quietly strong in her intensity, while an Aries is loud with his.
Life is complicated, and people are complex. But if you can understand their basic instincts, you will make fewer foes and more friends.
More importantly, your intuition will be able to warn if a person wishes you harm.
5) Devour Literature
For all the intricacies of life, every feeling that has ever been felt has already been recorded.
See movies. Read books. Really hear the words. Really watch the gestures.
Understanding characters is a step to understanding people, which ultimately leads to understanding yourself.
It will help you realize that your intuition is not some external being that is difficult to grasp. You will find that it and you have always been one right from the start.
Note: These are a collection of tips found in various places on the internet. While some of these are my own, they do not all belong to me.
•Mix together Salt and Pepper and sprinkle to prevent trespassing •Add coffee to a bath to break a curse •Place sachets of dried rosemary around the home for protection •Sprinkle around garlic powder to keep evil at bay •Add lime to your water for protection •Carry a clove with you for courage •Mint attracts business - try hanging a sprig above the door to your private workspace •Place a sprig of thyme under your pillow to bring about prophetic dreams •Hang a braid of garlic in a sickroom to trap the negative energies •Put a vial of rosemary water in a sickroom to promote healing •Stash an onion beneath a sickbed to soak up wandering negative and harmful energies •Seaweed can be used to ward off evil spirits •Scatter dried or fresh chilli peppers to break a curse •Throwing rice into the air promotes rain •Lilacs rid unwanted spirits •Black Obsidian is great for scrying •Stitch sigils into clothes, blankets, etc •Too Cold outside to storm call? Storm calling / weather magick will work just fine when facing your window and looking out •When showering, imagine all the impurities and negativity being washed off you by the water, and down into the drain •The Fae enjoy sweets as offerings the most •Wear your pendulum as a necklace when on the go •Use amethyst crystals to recharge your energies. Left Hand - Out with the old. Right hand - In with the New. •Soups and stews not only are great for healing the body, but they have many magickal properties too! •Himalayan pink salt can get seriously expensive. Unless you plan on eating it, buy Himalayan Pink Bath Salts. They’re so much cheaper and you can buy them in even larger bags. •Use coffee filters and elastic bands to make the perfect bath bags •Use sea salt when sweeping the floor to soak up the negative energies and cleanse your home •Store your Black Salt in a dark glass jar, away from sunlight.
