[TheMuslimWitch]

Yes I feel for you​:people_hugging: there is that little something about nature which just whisks you off your feet. Almost like a 7th senses if u ask me

[MeganB]

Hooray! I’m making some time to go through everyone’s entries

@BryWisteria

A weather witch glows as bright as the sun
Like the rain and the wind, they answer to none
One with nature, they don’t bend nor conform-
So don’t mess with a weather witch,
or you’ll be faced with a storm!

Ok first of all… just like bow down to the rhyming prowess of @BryWisteria because this chant is amazing!

@LadyDennaRahl

I was taught that the first recorded uses of Snowstorm water date back to the time of the druids and Native Americans.

That’s super interesting! I didn’t know this but I used a bit of snow water a few years ago when I lived in Oregon. We didn’t have a blizzard but we did get snowed in at least once I even wrote an entire blog post about Snow Magick a couple years ago! → Winter Witching – Snow Magick – 'Round the Cauldron ← if you’re looking for some other ideas to use that snow!

@Phoenix_Fire

i had always felt connected to strong winds and got excited when felt the strong wind blowing as i walked.

If there’s one thing that scares me and makes me feel a certain way about weather is wind. Just the wind and the way it sounds is creepy to me when it whistles through cracked windows and stuff wind is one thing I’ve never really connected to lol

@yolande1

By thunder and lightning, By mugwort and Moon! This water is charged to work any boon!

This is amazing! I love it! Thank you for sharing this spell you found by Ann Moura!

@Amaris_Bane

I love this!

Awesome! I’m so glad!

@BryWisteria

I really like the far off image with all the pretty clouds framing the glowing moon.

That’s my favorite, too

@christina4

i have 12 full moons water

I’d be really interested in hearing what you use the 12 Full Moon Water for! I’ve never made it and that’s gotta be a serious dedication to get (or remember, for me anyway lol) moon water for each of the full moons.

@Ostara

magick things to keep lightning away

Oh, wow! I hadn’t heard any of these things to keep lightning away. I’m gonna put them in my proverbial pocket for summer here in Florida – we definitely need it!

---

@Medea

I have always loved Thunderstorms and I found that there is a name/definition for this, Ceraunophilia.

Welp, I’ve got a new word to add to my dictionary because I am also very fond of thunderstorms!

---

@Jeannie1

I used water that I found in Oregon that was from the snow and charged my water

I love having snow water from Oregon when I was there! Thank you for sharing

---

@Phoenix_Rose

It is snowing!!!

How amazing! You’ve got your snow – so exciting! Congratulations on your successful spellwork

---

@LexiHex

One of my favorite practices is connecting with thunderstorms.

You and me both! Thunderstorms are just so freakin’ amazing! I remember being a kid and my dad taking me outside under our patio to watch the thunderstorms. My daughter when she was younger used to call them “the big lights” in the sky

---

@charlotte2

Today we will be getting snow as well as cutting down our Yule tree.

That sounds like an amazing plan Charlotte I hope you had a wonderful time!

---

@Kasandra

Spell for Energy on a Cloudy/Dreary Day

As always, your spells are beautifully worded and setup!

---

@Susurrus

for the diffuser there I have been using

I’m stealing this blend lol I pulled the diffuser out of my room and brought it into the kitchen/common area space in my home. This sounds like it smells really good! I’ve got an allergy blend that I use that’s just like this except substitute peppermint for chamomile.

---

@Phoenix_Rose

It is hard to take pictures of the moon through a telescope.

I think I’m gonna see if I can get some attachments or something for the telescope we have so I can see it better we found this telescope at Goodwill for like… $25 so it was a great find!

---

@jessica72

share a couple of things I found

Aww don’t worry about being a " responder" lol – we all have lives and we’re all busy. No worries! Thank you for sharing these spells, though. They’re amazing! I think I really, really like that first one for being at one with the rain

---

@Francessca

Woke up this morning to some snow

I love that the spell worked for you but I’m so sorry you ended up knocked over by your pupper

---

@Artemisia

similar to the symbol that we use in present day for hurricanes

That’s such an interesting thing to notice you’re right! I’ve heard of the Taino before but I don’t know too much about them. I should learn a bit more about them since I live in Florida and they’re the first Indigenous peoples that Christopher Columbus came into contact with. Thank you for sharing these deities!

Such amazing entries!

WWC Entry Weather Witchery

This challenge was perfect for my weather this week. Wednesday night of the Full Cold moon it was snowing here.

I went outside and it was very peaceful. I couldn’t see the moon but took a picture of where I thought it was.

I collected snow, let it melt, then put it in a jar to use at a later time.

I’m thinking maybe cooling spray in the summer, or who knows maybe I might need to chill someone out!

I will edit in some pictures. I’m running out of time

The snow I collected:

Snowing Outside:

Looking for the Full Cold Moon in the sky. Looks really cool!

Melted snow, It really shrank! I can’t wait to use it. I had a blast playing in the snow late at night.

[christina4]

Thats such a good idea! I’m glad you had fun!
Theres still fresh snow here, hmm I wonder if I could get a jar or &alf at least. Thanks for the inspiration

[Phoenix_Rose]

Thanks for sharing this! I love the Irish signs for bad weather.

[Phoenix_Rose]

Beautiful pics. Here in Canada we definitely get all fours seasons in a day often. When I travel within Canada I have to pack for every type of weather. Super fun. Lol

[Susurrus]

@MeganB

except substitute peppermint for chamomile.

Please do & let me know what you think! My husband really likes it & will keep our bedroom dpor shut so he “doesn’t have to share”

When there are sinus or allergies in the household, I add Eucalyptus or Wintergreen to the same blend*(sometimes both)* & it still gives a nice bright feeling to our room or the house

[BryWisteria]

[Eliza_01]

Very interesting read, how the spell played out. Got the snow and to stay home, then poochy helping out. Spells are interesting how it can come together, series of events, chain reactions, it’s a trip sometimes. Hope the pain eases though and able to do what you need to for the day.

This is so nice, love what you wrote, so pretty and effective as well!

@Francessca

I have gifts to make for this Yule Tide season, and a gift of snow would truly be pleasing.
To be blanked in white, filled with love and grace
may it snow tonight into tomorrow for a much needed break.

@Artemisia

I think it’s remarkable how the depiction of Guabancex is so similar to the symbol that we use in present day for hurricanes

Yes, that is really remarkable!

[Sarafeena_Sage]

I’ll send some of our snow your way

[Susurrus]

OOO…it would be greatly appreciated! Every day my daughter is like… it’s gray… maybe we’ll get snow…

Yesterday morning we did get some rain changing over to snow and then flurrying for a couple of hours, but by the end of the day, it was just gray & yucky damp… I will take whatever you can send our way!

[MeganB]

@Sarafeena_Sage

I’m thinking maybe cooling spray in the summer

This is a great idea! I never thought to use snow water like this good thinking!

@Phoenix_Rose

Thanks for sharing this!

You’re welcome! It’s so funny because I was reading them and it was like “this is bad weather…this is bad weather…this is bad weather…” and I’m like okay…but what’s good weather then??

@Susurrus

Please do

I don’t know if I have chamomile. I’ll have to look! I know I have actual dry chamomile that we use for tea lol but I’m not sure about the essential oils.

I want to make a holiday blend with cinnamon and wintergreen. We had one from Young Living called Christmas Spirit but it’s all gone. It smelled so good!

[Garnet]

@Amaris_Bane
When I do spells or write poetry. I have the alphabet in front of me and I sound out the word I wish to rhyme with the meaning I’m looking for.
I.e. “fight - Bite, bright height, night, etc.”
Good luck, remember you can do anything you choose to.
Love and Luck
Garner

[Susurrus]

I will see what I have in my recipes for Yule & Christmas… I like to have seasonal smells too. Now that sun is back, I can switch the scents up a bit I don’t think my husband will let me change the one in our room though. He really likes that one right now

I will get back to you once I go through what I have for essential oil diffuser blends.

[antoinette]

Good thing your ok. Tbad you cant point your finver and shoot lightning bolts. Lol pretty cool. I mean as cool as it can get, gettong hit by lightning kinda way.
