Merry meet everyone, Today I am going to be speaking to you all about creating your own magical oils. This will be in a couple parts because I want to give you as much information as I can to help you make the best oils your can within your home. Magical oils are always a great way to enhance your spell crafting and a lot of witches use their own oils daily. As you will know by last months posts is that I have such a big collection of essential oils that I use to create my own blends for my daily life as well as my magical one. The information I will be sharing with you will only be touching the surface and giving you a general over view of each essential oil because I want to encourage you to do your own research into the oils you are drawn to. Today's post will be introducing you to the base oils you will be able to use to create your blends. You need a base oil to water down the oils so its not harmful on your skin. You will also know that I have a good collection of the base oils that I use to create the blends. I don't have all the base oils but got the ones I know I will use. Bare in mind you don't need to get everything at once. Everything I own has been collected over many years of use. Base oils: Apricot kernel oil: This is good for all types of skin. It is very rich and nourishing, Particularly in vitamin A. It has very little scent and absorbs into skin quickly. Avocado oil: Small amounts of this oil are typically added to other carrier oils in order to enrich protein and vitamin content. Coconut oil: This is used to create a barrier on the skin. It is also the preferred oil for high-quality cold process soapers. Grapeseed oil: This is the preferred carrier oil for many massage therapists because of its light, satin like finish. It also has some astringent qualities and is good for oily, acne-prone skin. Jojoba oil: This oil is more like liquid wax. It closely resembles the sebum of the skin, and is rich in vitamin E. This promotes a glowing complexion. Rose hip seed oil: This oil is extremely high in essential fatty acids and is known to help treat dry, irritated, weathered skin. It is also suitable for applying to scares and stretch marks. Not for acne-prone skin. Safflower oil: This oil is very popular in massage blends as it its easily absorbed and can be washed from sheets without heavy straining. Also a popular industry choice for moisturising cosmetics. Sesame oil: This oil is rich in vitamins E and B and in minerals such as calcium, magnesium and phosphorus. It is an excellent emollient. When diluted with other carrier oils it is popular for massage. Sweet almond oil : This oil is an excellent emollient and is known for its ability to soften and re-condition the skin. It is rich in proteins and vitamin D and is considered extremely nourishing. Can stain sheets though. Wheatgerm oil: This oil is used for beauty. Simply blend a small amount into the skin or hair. It helps with cracked and scarred skin, giving it an even tone. Its also in hair products because of how well it helps maintain the hair. This oil also can be used to irradiated skin such as dermatitis. I hope this post has helped you understand the base oils a little bit more and that it gives you an idea which ones you would like to get for your magical oil. You can also use vegetable oil which some witches do as its cheaper but then you wouldn't be able to use it as a skin product.

I hope you are all keeping safe out there with this virus going about and I will see you all in the next post. Blessed be x PaganVibesOnly x Merry meet everyone, So today I will be talking about different magic based spells that you could do on the waning moon. As you know the moon boosts and enhances your spell work depending on the moon. So the list I will do bellow will all be more effective to do on the waning moon. This is such a great and helpful source if you are starting out. After all you can always follow your instincts as well if you don't feel like it will work on this moon try another. This is just to give you all a ball park to work in. List of magic focus: - Addictions to overcome - Bad Habits to break - Bad Luck to reverse - Bindings - Curses and Hexes to break -Exorcisms - Fear to overcome -Jinx-Breaking -Love spells to reverse - Negativity to banish - Nightmares to banish - Peace to end hostility - Weather to calm This is only just a small list because its what I have done in my book of shadows. Like always you can follow your instincts and create your own list with more experience. Like I said before this is just a ball park for you to start off with. I hope this list gives you some ideas of where to do your spell casting and that it will come in handy in the future. The next post about the moon phases will be the Full moon which will also include the new moon as that list isn't as long. As always you can follow me on instagram @paganvibesonly to keep up to date with all things witchy and also to ask any questions you like. I am always just a click away. I will see you all in the next post. Blessed be x PaganVibesOnly x Merry meet everyone, So this post today will be me ranting and venting out about whats going in the world at the moment. Unless you live under a rock you will know that covid-19 has now taken over the world in a big way. It has taken many lives and effected nearly everyone. Now in the UK we have been put on a lock down. This means I am no longer at work. From me writing this post I have been out of work for now over a week and half, so from mid march. I am now starting to become stare crazy being stuck inside my flat. We are not allowed out unless for essentials or a daily walk which is classed as exorcise. This has in turn effected my mental health because being stuck inside means I can't focus on anything but what goes on in my head. Normally this is fine for me being inside for one or two days doing my house chores ect, but being stuck inside with no end seems to be getting to me. I have been trying to focus on my creative side and start or finish projects that I may have started months ago. This is great for me but the fact that I run out of supplies and cant go to my local craft shop to stock up is now getting to me. I may be able to get items online but the delivery times vary depending on if they have been effected with this covid-19 virus. The other thing that is now effecting me more than I thought was the fact I don't get to see my family. I used to see my nan every day near enough and now shes not allowed out because she would be effected very bad by this if she did get it. I know we are protecting her in this but its also making me miss her soo much. Its starting to become a problem again for my mental health because seeing my nan helped me a lot anyway but now I can't even do that. The problem I am now facing is finding the topics and focus to do my posts. I have a load of ideas lined up for future posts but then looking after my nieces for their mum now the school is out is taking time away for me to do those posts. I think this will be my warning that some days posts my be missed because my whole world has been turned upside down as of lately as many of you have as well. The world has frozen in time and we got told this week we may be on lock down until June this year! May end up losing the plot if it goes that long but hey ho I will take each day as they come. As always you can follow me on instagram @paganvibesonly to keep updated on all things witchy and blog related. I will try and keep my 3 blog posts a week goal for this year but I am finding it hard to focus at the moment. I hope you all keep safe and we will hopefully get through this mess together. Blessed be x PaganVibesOnly x |
