DAILY TAROT CARD King of Cups Meaning: A mature, wise man who is well versed in the Craft. This card represents an individual who is artistic, intuitive, creative, and passionate. Physically he has dark blond to light brown hair with a touch of gray, and blue or green eyes. He is a good friend, a loving and attentive husband, and a devoted father. The King of Cups gives good, solid advice when asked. This card can represent a quiet man who keeps his emotions to himself but who can be moody. He is, however, deeply emotional, and he has a tough outer shell to disguise a very soft and loving interior. He often sees what most people would prefer to keep hidden. This card represents an individual who is an excellent mediator, psychically talented, and strong and fair. The lesson from the King of Cups is that wisdom comes from looking within. Temper your counsel of others with compassion and affection.. Spell: Spell: Snow Writing Color of the Day WHITE Incense of the Day HONEYSUCKLE Do you need a creative boost? This is a great time to harness the energy of the season. The weather has usually turned cold by now, and snow is often in abundance. If you are able to stand or sit outside, do so. See if you can differentiate between the individual flakes of snow. Each one is unique and has its own structure. Find a spot that has been previously undisturbed. If there isn’t one or if you don’t have any snow, you can shave some ice to achieve the same effect. What kind of creative boost do you need? Write it in the snow and say: Ideas come to me so that I can manifest them into being. Leave the message in the snow and let it slowly dissipate. Magical Correspondences forThursday Thursdays are the luckiest days of the week, want to know why witches? It’s because Thursdays are ruled by Jupiter and Jupiter is the planet of luck, abundance, and power. It’s not fast cash this planet rules, either. Jupiter rules the long-term accumulation of wealth and long-term success. Thursdays are days for signing contracts, blessings, health and wellness spells, career spells, prosperity, protection, justice, and leadership. If there’s a tough legal situation you’ve found yourself in, Thursday is the perfect day to perform spells to smooth it out.  is associated with the planet Jupiter, the planet that rules over expansion and optimism, amplifying attraction work of any kind. However, Prosperity and Road Opening spells are two of the most commonly associated with this day. The corresponding zodiac signs are Capricorn and Pisces. Using the same line of thought as I did with Wednesday’s associations, I also add Sagittarius to the list of signs corresponding with Thursday, because that is the zodiac sign analogous with Jupiter. Elements that are associated with Thursday include Air and Fire, but arguably Earth could be mentioned as well due to Capricorn being an earth sign. Although finances are typically associated with Thursday, all spell work relating to matters of success will be fortuitous. Luck, overcoming obstacles (block busting or road opening), legal matters and personal success are all spells with enhanced effectiveness on this day of the week. Gods/Goddesses: Hera, Juno, Jupiter, Thor, Zeus. If you work with the Ancient Greek or Ancient Roman pantheon, this would be a good day to pay homage to the Queen and King counterparts of both respective systems: Juno and Jupiter (Roman) and Hera and Zeus (Greek). Angel: Selaphiel Tap into Jupiter’s lucky energy by wearing royal blues, carrying turquoise, and incorporating oak into any spellwork today and, of course, since Thursday is named after Thor, try working with this wonderfully magnanimous God for strength, courage, and protection.

SHOW NOTES: DAILY TAROT CARD Nine of Wands Meaning: When the Nine of Wands turns up in a reading, it is a notice to be on guard against trouble, mischief, gossip, and baneful magicks. Now is the time to be alert to trouble and be vigilant with protecting yourself and your professional or magickal reputation. You may need to defend yourself, so be alert and stay on guard. Stamina, courage, and conviction is needed at this time. Magickal protection work may be required. You may not feel like you have the fortitude for any more dramas, but stand firm and be strong. Defend your turf and your reputation skillfully and vigorously. The suit of wands is all about creativity and ambition; you can do this. Draw some boundaries, call upon your inner resources, and stand strong. . Spell: Peace Be With You Color of the Day SCARLET Incense of the Day BAYBERRY  Say cheese Name spellings The holidays are so stressful for some folks. Maybe there’s a lot to do and not enough time to do it. Perhaps you’re alone, or maybe you’ve got a large and argumentative family. Whatever the situation, this spell will help you keep your cool and find a way to stay peaceful and centered. You’ll need a pen and some unlined paper, a candle in a holder, and something to light it with. Write down the names of the people who stress you out—or, if it’s a situation and not a person, write that down. Draw a circle around what you wrote, and place it under the candle. Light the candle, and as you do so, say: Peace around me, Peace before me, Peace between me and thee, So mote it be. If you can let the candle burn down on its own safely, do that. If not, pinch it out. Magical Correspondences for Monday Deities: Ezili Danto, Kali, Mars, Lilith (Lilith being one of my favorites...even though she's not considered a traditional deity for this day I absolutely associate her with Tuesday, as she is considered a patroness of witches and a goddess of sexuality, equality, wisdom, willpower, independence and power). Herbal Tea: Ginseng with ginger root added: Ginseng is an excellent tonic. It encourages vitality ans stimulates your psyche and physical body to feel capable and strong. Ginger is strengthening and in a magical sense, protective. Lemon, ginger, cayenne pepper and maple syrup is strengthening as well and it boosts the immune system. Anointing Oil: Three drops of Bergamot, Patchouli, Sandalwood, Orange or Pine oil in carrier base. Herbs & Plants: Snapdragon, Thistle, Patchouli, Rue, Holly, Allspice, Peppers, Garlic, Ginger, Cinnamon Incense: Dragon's Blood, Frankincense, Cinnamon, Patchouli and Sandalwood Colors: Red, black, scarlet & orange Crystals: Blood-stone, Garnet, Ruby, Red Jasper, and Tiger's Eye Metal: Iron Yule Traditions and Symbols Wassail derives from the Old English words waes hael, which means “be well”, “be hale” or “good health”. It is a strong drink, usually a mixture of ale, honey and spices or mulled apple cider. When pagans went into the forest to fell the great oak for the Yule log, they would anoint the tree with wassail and bedeck them with wassail-soaked cakes, thus the ritual of wassailing was born. At home, the wassail would be poured into a large bowl during feast time and the host, when greeting his or her guests, would lift a drink and wish them “waes hael”, to which they would reply “drinc hael”, which meant “drink and be well”. Carolling was also a popular Yule tradition when young children honoured the Winter Solstice with song. They would go through the villages, singing door to door. The villagers, in return, would reward them with tokens and sweets and small gifts which symbolized the food and prosperity given by the Mother Goddess to all her Earthly children. Food and Drink of Yule: Yule Log Cake, Gingerbread, Fruits, Berries, Nuts, Pork dishes, Turkey, Eggnog, Ginger Tea, Spiced Support this podcast

SHOW NOTES: DAILY TAROT CARD Eight of Pentacles Meaning: When the Eight of Pentacles turns up in a reading, it tells of a time for practical knowledge, determination, and skill. This is a moment of hands-on training or of intense study with your career or the magickal arts. Here is an opportunity to immerse yourself in a creative project such as art or writing. Being focused, disciplined, and diligent with your project, you will put all of your skills to good use. By combining all of your gifts with hard work, there will be success. This is not a card of fame; this is a card that reminds you of how effort, focus, and creativity often bring growth, gain, and a sense of accomplishment. This card can also show up in a reading when there is a long, involved project nearing a successful completion. Spell: Deep Sleep Color of the Day SILVER Incense of the Day CLARY SAGE   Winter’s long, dark nights can support our sleep, which benefits every aspect of our mental and physical health. Like flower bulbs beneath the cold winter soil, winter rest helps us replenish our energy before the more expansive months of spring and summer. To support deep and restful sleep, cleanse a black tourmaline in bright sunlight, sage smoke, or running water. At bedtime, hold it in your right hand and sense its calming, grounding vibrations moving through your entire physical body, all the way to your toes, your fingers, and the crown of your head. Feel your muscles release and notice that you are safely cocooned in the crystal’s protective energy. Continue to hold the crystal in your hand (or otherwise close to your body) as you sleep, tonight and any other night that you’d like to support your sleep. During the day, set the crystal on a bright windowsill to cleanse and recharge it in the sun. Magical Correspondences for Monday Anointing Oil: One drop each of lavender, geranium and Bergamot essential oil in one teaspoon of base oil. Or just three drops of geranium if there are budget constraints. Ylang Ylang is lovely all by itself. Herbal Tea: Jasmine: Night-blooming jasmine is sacred to the moon.  Mugwort is a magickal tonic that heightens psychic awareness and inner vision.  Three tablespoons of the dried leaf to a good size pot should be kept warm on the stove. Don't brew it too strongly, sweeten with honey. Chamomile is a substitute. Herbs & Plants: Chamomile, mugwort, lavender, honeysuckle, white flower pedals, gardenia, white poppy. Incense: Sandalwood, Nag Champa, Jasmine, Amber and Rose Colors: Pale blue, lavender, silver and white Crystals: Moonstone, Pearl Yule Traditions and Symbols Wassail derives from the Old English words waes hael, which means “be well”, “be hale” or “good health”.

SHOW NOTES: DAILY TAROT CARD The Star Meaning: The Star is a card of hope, inner peace, creativity, and healing. When this beautiful, tranquil card turns up in a reading, it is a sign that physical and emotional healing is on the way. Have hope, follow your dreams, and your wishes will be granted. This card speaks of inspiration; your creativity will flow better than ever before. Let it fill you up, and see where it leads you. The Star illustrates a softer, gentler magick and indicates that you will be working successfully with your intuitive gifts. Also, astrological timing is imperative to any magick performed at this time. Keywords: Healing, inspiration, intuition, renewal. Hope, peace, wishes granted. Astrological magick. Wisdom. Creativity is flowing. SPELL OF THE DAY Spell: Candle Prosperity Spell Color of the Day PURPLE Incense of the Day ALDER Inscribe your wishes onto a green or gold candle. Be as specific as possible, and clearly visualize your dreams as you do this. Anoint the entire candle with jasmine oil, feeling the energy of prosperity seep into the wax with the oil. Sprinkle some nutmeg over the oil. Light the candle, seeing the flame and its light releasing brilliant green and gold energies. Clearly visualize the wishes and dreams you inscribed on the candle being released to the universe, then, for as long a period as you can, hold the image of your dreams coming to fruition in your mind. When you can no longer hold the image, release it to the flame and allow the candle to burn itself out. DAILY WITCH TIP 3 places/ways to use sigils... PERMANENT SIGILS A sigil made to last a long time so that it is constantly working. can be recharged if needed...best for protection, creativity, etc TEMPORARY SIGILS Created in a way that will wear away over time or a form that is removable. Best for creativity, luck, or workings that will last a short time. DESTRUCTIBLE SIGILS This sigil is destroyed in some way in order to activate it. The act of destroying is the burst of energy it needs to work. Best for spells for a certain event to take place, with energy and action. Dirty Santa Sabbat Game The rules of the Dirty Santa game are that each attendee brings a wrapped gift with a value no more than $15. We aim to make these witchy gifts that our covenmates would potentially fight over. They can be hand-made, hand-me-down, nature found, or store bought. Hand-blended incense for various intentions, or prepared candles are always a hit. Anointing Oils, potions, and rare crystals never go wrong. Perhaps the passing down of a Deity statue you’ve decommissioned, or some raw material you’ve sustainably collected like an animal pelt, or bone. This year I prepared hurricane water for justice magick, that I could doll up in a witchy glass bottle. Once we have a heap of gifts assembled in the middle of our circle of friends, we each draw a number – one for each player – so there will be the same number as there are gifts. For the sake of instructions, let’s say there are 13 players. Number 1 gets to choose the first gift, which they open in front of everyone and we oooo and ahhhh over whatever magickal wonders lie within. But Number 1 doesn’t yet get to “keep” the gift yet, it must be left plainly visible. Number 2 then chooses a gift, unwraps, ooos and ahhs, and then they can either keep what they are holding, or trade it for whatever Number 1 is holding. It goes on from there, Numbers 3 through 13 have the choice to keep their own gift, or anything already open. EXCEPT a single gift can only change hands 3 times. If you’re the third person to hold the gift, you are safe. Number 13 has the happy choice of everything else in the room, and once they’ve chosen, you’re stuck with whatever you’re holding. It can get pretty hilarious, so long as everyone goes into the game with the right attitude, Support this podcast

SHOW NOTES: CONTEST POD VCOMM CONVENTION Four of Swords Meaning: When the Four of Swords is dealt in a reading, it is a sign that you need to take some personal downtime-a retreat or a day off so you can recoup lost energy and find your strength again. The querent may be feeling overwhelmed by demands and stress. They may feel the need to get away and to withdraw from the hectic and daily grind of life. This card symbolizes that you need to allow yourself time to recover from an illness. It may also represent a need to step away from group magick for a bit. You may need to practice solitarily for a time. You will find the solutions to your magickal problems quietly and on your own. Keywords: Taking some downtime for yourself. Resting and allowing yourself to fully recover from an illness. Recouping lost energy. Working magick as a solitary for a while, and finding your focus. Spell: Krampus Holiday Fun Spell Color of the Day WHITE Incense of the Day APRICOT   Krampus is the original “wild man” of the Yuletide season. Though he has a reputation for being a rather stern figure, he’s usually the life of the party. If the holidays have you depressed, place a small piece of mistletoe in a bag (mistletoe is poisonous, so keep it wrapped up!) and say the following words over it: May I be merry, May I be bright, Never contrary, A Yuletide delight. Krampus, hear my plea. This is my will, let it be! The powers of Krampus and the mistletoe will help you overcome any holiday malaise and make you the center of attention at any office Christmas party. coffee magick  coffee has strong grounding properties and effectively boosts confidence, energy, and mental strength/clarity! coffee boosters; optional add-ins to give your coffee an extra witchy kick cinnamon [x] vanilla; kindness, purity coconut (creamer/sugar); cleansing, peace, prosperity, luck moon water; purity, healing, love, energy rose-infused milk (or ‘milk’); love, healing, diety work, calming, comfort thyme; fae work, kindness, communication, success, peace lavender-infused milk/‘milk’; tranquility, love, healing, calming, purity chocolate; divination, love, comfort, happiness, luck rosemary; mental clarity, memory, calming, strength WITCH TIPS •collect salt packets from restaurants/cafes. you can do so much with these things •set up a cleansing and charging station. arrange crystals in a pattern that draws energy out of an object, put out a bowl of salt & various herbs, have a bottle of (moon) water at the ready, or whatever cleansing method you prefer. this way if you ever need to get clogged up or negative energy out of a crystal, pendulum, or any object, you can quickly cleanse it and charge it with positive energy. •if you practice astrology, have a folder in your notes app with friends & families star signs or birth charts for easy access •for those who wear bra’s or bralettes, put a salt packet in the left of your bra and switch it out at the end of the day. having the salt close to your heart all day will aid in emotional cleansing, so its great for a witch with mental illness or anxiety, or getting over someone. doing this everyday has helped me SO much. its so clever. •draw or paint any sigils/ruins/witchy symbols on the soles of your shoes or anywhere else on your shoe (or draw sigils onto tape if u don’t want to draw on your shoe). the dirt & water coming into contact with your shoe will charge the sigils and send the energy out into the world and into the wearer, and the kinetic energy from walking and running will charge the sigil aswell. grounding sigils will work particularly well for this tip. •save binural beats, meditation music, or chakra balancing music onto your phone and use it as an aid to meditate on the bus, train, school, or work.•collect salt packets from restaurants/cafes. you can do...

Show Notes: Temperance  Meaning: The Temperance card appears in a reading when it is time to be restrained, to be a little more tactful than usual, and to employ some moderation. This Major Arcana card represents the mixing of different magickal elements to create something new, like rain and sunlight make a rainbow. The Temperance card also stands for the personal alchemy of a spiritual transformation. Now is the time to work on the healing of your spiritual self. This the perfect occasion to work on finding the correct balance, or "flow," in your magick and your life. Watch for messages from the gods.  Keywords: Alchemy. Restoring equilibrium.

It’s less about the light from the Moon and more about the energy and gravitational pull (which is strongest during the Full Moon).

After your Moon Water is charged you can make tea with it and imagine that restorative energy flowing into your body. If you’re using a Mason jar or similar container just flip it upside down so the lid is on the bottom. Then the Moon energy can shine in through the glass!
