Magical practices

Hi.

I thought a discussion thread would be nice. What are the common types of magic you use within your own practice?

I'll start with my own to help give everyone an idea.

• Candle workings. My spell work is done with candles more lately. I like to carve addresses of targets. I also like to dress candles with herbs.
• Barrier work. This involves sprinkling herbs and powders around doorways to attract or repel. Hexing powders and herbal mixes are used.
• Burning loose herbs. This is done for intention. Herbal mixes are burned to attract blessings, induce vivid dreaming, or for exorcism.

What are some of the practices you are currently undertaking? Why do you find yourself drawn to these?

I almost always have a healing candle burning all the time for many of my friends who need help.

I also do candle magic of various sorts when specific energies are needed either by myself or by friends. Candles to get a job, for protection, for financial help, etc are the most common.

I blend my own incenses for specific purposes such as protection, banishing, Sabbat/Esbat rituals, etc. I tend to stick to loose incenses for this.

I custom blend oils for ritual use or to wear to bring about a desired outcome.

I make protection charms and Witch bottles to have around my home and yard.

And I try to do a daily thankfulness ritual where I light incense for my Patron goddess and thank her for at least one good thing that happened to me on that day.
