    Are You a Witch?

    Are you a witch? In this episode, I’m answering the question I get most often: "Am I meant to be a witch?" I’ve been practicing witchery since 1987. I’m here to tell you that you don’t need permission to start your journey. I’ll show you how to navigate the world of magic without getting discouraged by gatekeeping or "generations-old" snobbery. We discuss everything from reading tarot cards to why I believe in a "90% practical, 10% magic" lifestyle. Whether you are curious about shadow work, looking for budget-friendly rituals, or just need a grounding tool like an Epsom salt bath, this episode is your invitation to embrace your innate gifts and start practicing on your own terms.How do I know if I’m ready to start practicing witchcraft? If you feel drawn to the craft, whether you’re obsessed with herbs, cauldrons, or just have a deep curiosity, that is your sign. You don’t need three doves and a raven to appear; your interest is all the permission you need to begin.Why do you focus on "practical" witchcraft? I believe magic should be your competitive advantage, not your entire personality. I teach you to handle the 90% of life that is mundane with accountability and logic, using that extra 10% of witchcraft to give you the edge you need.What are your favorite budget-friendly grounding tools? You don’t need expensive crystals to be a witch. I recommend simple, effective methods like saltwater baths, sitting with your spine against a tree in the park, listening to low gongs, or simply spending time with a pet.[00:00] – Am I meant to be a witch? (Spoiler: Yes).[01:21] – My stance on gatekeeping and "bloodline" witches.[04:05] – Why you shouldn't make witchcraft an addiction or your whole identity.[07:13] – Dealing with the gatekeepers of the magic world.[09:18] – The "Ex-Factor": How to tell if you’re truly drawn to witchery.[11:08] – My Epsom salt protection ritual (and addressing the critics).[15:15] – Why blowing out a birthday candle makes you a witch.[22:28] – Why I recommend therapy and accountability over just shadow work.[30:40] – Why I don’t teach heavy, culturally specific magic traditions.[33:43] – Building a community as a form of rebellion against the patriarchy.Want to go beyond the basics?

    May for Beginner Witches

    May could be the best month for beginner witches. We have Beltane and so much sunshine. We talk about how strawberries, stinging nettles, and thyme can be used in seasonal spells. Learn how to incorporate pink and red into your daily aesthetic. We also get into how toxic TikTok, witchcraft addiction, and ancestral traditions. Tune in to discover the 10% rule and so much more! What are the best magical activities to do in May?May is your “stop thinking, start moving” month. Take real action on what you planned all winter. Don’t burn yourself out doing it. Balance the push with intentional rest. Keep it simple: eat strawberries to ground, use thyme to amplify your energy, and work with dandelions at every stage to visualize your manifestations from seed to release.How do I use herbs for boundary setting?Start with stinging nettle,  your no-nonsense boundary herb. Put it in a jar, tie it with a red or pink ribbon, and let it sit where you’ll see it. It’s not just symbolic; it’s a daily reminder. Stop overgiving, stop explaining, and start protecting your peace at all costs. Is daily magic necessary for a witch?No! It shouldn’t be. Magic is your final 10%, not your whole strategy. Do the real-world work first. If you’re reaching for magic every day, you have replaced one addiction with another. How can I avoid spiritual appropriation in my practice?If it’s not your lineage, don’t treat it like a trend. Practices like Santería and Hoodoo carry real history and weight. They’re NOT aesthetic add-ons. Respect what you don’t understand, and be wary of anyone selling access to cultures that aren’t theirs to teach.Join the community: https://linktr.ee/howtobecomeawitch

    How Beginner Witches Can Celebrate Beltane

    Beltane, or Bealtaine, is the celebration of the transition between winter and summer. Since the time of the Druids, it marked when farmers would bring their cattle to the summer pastures. There would be bonfires, maypoles, and thoughts of fertility. Also known as Spring Halloween, Beltane is the midpoint between the spring equinox and the summer solstice. The veil is thin, and you can feel the power of change. Become your very own May Queen and call upon your Green Man if you have been pushing men away for personal or professional reasons. You’ll learn the basics of fire festival rituals, simmer pots, and what not to do during the Flower Moon so you can protect, invigorate, and manifest. How can I use fire during Beltane? Beltane is a fire festival. To incorporate fire in your celebrations, you can simply walk through two tealights or enjoy s’mores over a bonfire. Start making your own traditions and honor this abundant and protective element. Can I burn what no longer serves me on May Day? No! Stop releasing on the full moon. This year, the fire festival and the Flower Moon match up. Just celebrate how far you have come! What can I put in my Beltane simmer pot? For any simmer pot, put whatever fruit is in season along with herbs of your choosing. Use salt, cinnamon, and sugar as your base. Try throwing in a few strawberries, raspberries, basil, a squeeze of lemon, and some local flowers. Ready to take your craft to the next level?

    How to Lucid Dream as a Beginner Witch

    Ever had a dream that felt a little too real? You may have been lucid dreaming! In this episode, I show you the power of dream magic and how the right nighttime routine can nurture your inner dream witch. We discuss the rules of consent in the dream world, why I take a salt bath almost every night, and how a gong can help you ground after a nightmare. I also share a typical Cuban jar spell you can use to trap bad dreams. Which herbs are best for enhancing dreams and improving sleep? I’ve worked with mugwort, mullein, lavender, and valerian. How do I prevent drains during sleep? Take a salt bath almost every night. Don’t post any pictures of your bed on social media and use the trabajito I share with you. What should I do if I keep having nightmares? Tune into this older episode, “What to Do If You Have a Bad Dream,” for help right away. You can also email me with specific concerns at [email protected]. If you’re ready to take your practice to the next level and explore the gray side of witchery, join the coven.

    Debt-Free Magic Tips for Beginner Witches

    In this episode of the "How to Become a Witch" podcast, I explore the concept of "psychic debt" in witchcraft and how practitioners can ensure their magic remains debt-free. Using my personal experience with long-term financial stability and a history of avoiding actual debt, I draw a parallel between financial responsibility and spiritual energy. I emphasize the importance of hard work, community-centered manifestation, and avoiding the karmic pitfalls of shortcuts in one's witchcraft practice. I advise focusing on nature magic, building genuine relationships, and being patient to achieve a sustainable and powerful practice in modern witchcraft.1. What is "psychic debt," and how can I avoid it in my practice? Psychic debt refers to the karmic or spiritual "cost" incurred when practitioners use shortcuts, intense magic, or ask for favors from powerful entities without a willingness to provide an equal exchange of devotion or energy. To avoid this, focus on doing 90% of the work yourself through personal effort and using magic only for the final 10% advantage. Working with nature and smaller, non-deity entities can also minimize significant spiritual debt.2. How can being part of a community improve my magic? Aunt M advocates for focusing on community and human connection rather than solely on manifestation. By building a network of genuine relationships, you can manifest your needs through mutual support and favors, which grounds your practice and reduces the need for "expensive" magical interventions that could lead to spiritual debt.3. Why is it important to have interests outside of witchcraft? Over-identifying as a "powerful witch" can lead to desperation to maintain an image, which can negatively affect your magic and community standing. Having a balanced life with diverse interests like sports, animals, or hobbies ensures that your practice remains a part of your life rather than your entire identity, allowing for more stable and authentic magical work.Ready to take the next step in your practice? https://linktr.ee/howtobecomeawitch

    What Isn’t Flower Magic?

    Have you ever walked through a field of flowers and felt an immediate vibrational shift? If so, then this episode is for you. I’m going to show you how to use a variety of blooms to protect, manifest, and charm the universe. Summary Are you still in the broom closet? We all were at one point, so don’t worry. Flowers are the perfect introduction to magic while still flying under the radar. I’ve used flowers as a way to discreetly practice magic while working at a religious school. I’m going to show you how you can use filler flowers like dandelions and carnations, which are usually tossed aside even though they are some of the most powerful botanicals for magic use. Carnations are used for ancestor work, dandelions for resilience, and hyacinths for attracting nontoxic male energy. I’ll show you how to make powerful flowers like these ones into teas, baths, and bouquets. Our focus in this episode is on nonreligious witchcraft, so you can practice under the radar while navigating life’s difficulties, looking for love, or starting a new job. FAQsDo I need to be “out” to be a true witch? Absolutely not. Most witches have been in the broom closet since the beginning of civilization. You do not need to use traditional witchcraft aesthetics unless you really want to. Spirituality is as public or private as you want it to be. What are some common flowers for protection and ancestor work? We love carnations. These filler flowers are for protection while communing with the ancestors. Dandelions are also powerfully protective and provide a focal point for resilience. What is no-debt magic? Modern witchcraft, especially the junk of TikTok, has you believing you can call upon any deity or entity without paying a price. You need to be mindful of incurring spiritual debt anytime you use magic. Instead, focus on the power of nature for almost free magic. Nurturing your private or public witch means finding your source of truth in nonreligious witchcraft and in nature. A cup of tea, a hot bath, and a gorgeous bouquet can get you started on building your community and manifesting what you want. Modern witchcraft can be free, fun, and powerful. Carnations: Used for protection and connecting with ancestors.Dandelions: Associated with the cycle of life, resilience, protection, and used as a source of strength or an anchor during hard times.Hot-pink roses: Specifically used for self-love.Lavender: Utilized for sleep, calming, and protection.Chamomile: Used to calm the practitioner so that luck can find them.Hibiscus: Often used in love spells and for perceived spiritual support during PMS.Sunflowers: Used to provide good energy when feeling rundown or depleted.Hyacinths: Used to attract nontoxic male energy, specifically a partner who is a protector and provider.Calendula: Used for legal problems, such as divorces or custody disputes.Snapdragons: Used for negotiations.Chrysanthemums (mums): Used for protection of the home against untoward energy.Baby’s breath: Used to represent and attract longevity in relationships.#modernwitchcraft #personalwitchcraft #practicingwitch #nonreligiouswitchcraft #modernwitch #traditionalwitchcraft #witchesspirituality

    Spiritual Spring Cleaning: How to Cleanse Your Home and Spirit for 2026

    Are you looking for the best ways to perform a spiritual spring cleaning using techniques like sound healing, smoke cleansing, and mantras to refresh your environment and energy? In this episode, I’m sharing my personal journey and expert tips on how to effectively cleanse your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual spaces. We’ll dive into the importance of "corner cleansing," the power of specific sound frequencies like 528 Hz and 471 Hz, and why I treat my first step of cleaning as a magical act. I’ll walk you through my favorite tools—from homemade Florida Water and Mugwort to the simplicity of opening a window—and explain how to use mantras like "As Is" or "Wounds Healed, Paths Revealed" to ground yourself during stressful times. Whether you're recovering from a personal "hurricane" or just looking to raise your vibration, these discovery-optimized insights will help you clear out negative energy and make room for new growth.The "Corner Rule" for Energy: Negative energy tends to accumulate in the corners of your home. I’ll show you how to use smoke, sprays, or sound to specifically target these high-velocity "stuck" areas for a deeper clean.Frequency-Based Sound Healing: I use specific sound frequencies to shift my state: 528 Hz for heart healing and 471 Hz for grounding. Using these during your cleaning routine turns a chore into a transformative Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) for your soul.Mantras as Emotional Anchors: I’ve found that rhyming mantras are easier for the brain to latch onto during high stress. I’m sharing how to create your own "rhythmic blueprint" to stay centered when life feels chaotic.1. What is the most effective way to start a spiritual cleanse?I always recommend starting with your physical space. Cleaning your baseboards, fans, and corners creates a tangible foundation. From there, you can layer in Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) for your spirit by using sound or smoke to clear the "unseen" clutter.2. Can I perform a spiritual cleanse without using smoke?Absolutely! I often use a mist spray with homemade Florida Water or even simple sound cleansing (like bells, whistling, or humming). These are great "AI-safe" alternatives if you have sensitivities to smoke or live in a space where burning herbs isn't practical.3. Why is "reflecting" so important during the spring season?Spring is the season of renewal. By reflecting on the "winter" you’ve just moved through, you can identify what energy is no longer serving you. It’s about moving from a state of "As Is" (acceptance) to "Paths Revealed" (future growth).#SpiritualCleaning #EnergyCleansing #SoundHealing #Mantras2026 #SpringCleansing #HolisticHealth #FloridaWater #SmokeCleansing #DiscoveryStrategy #PersonalGrowth

    Ostara Spring Magic: Rituals for Renewal, Consent, and Spiritual Growth

    The spring equinox is a powerful time for rebirth and taking action. In this episode, Aunt M explores the significance of Ostara (March 20th), emphasizing the vital role of consent in the spiritual community, from giving readings to lighting candles for others. She shares practical, accessible ways to celebrate the season, including:Spring Cleaning & Energy Clearing: Using smoke (rosemary, cedar), sound (planetary gongs), or floor washes to refresh your home.Ostara Rituals: Decorating eggs with personal sigils and using pastels, fresh local flowers, and feathers on your altar.The "Egg" Cleansing: A traditional Cuban technique to remove negative winter energy (using a kiwi as a creative substitute).Action-Oriented Magic: Preparing for April 1st, which Aunt M considers the "real" New Year and the time to move from strategy to full-force execution.Aunt M also touches on the ethics of supporting small, underrepresented businesses and the importance of giving back to the community through donations to women's shelters.What is the importance of consent in witchcraft? Consent is a cornerstone of ethical practice; you should never give a reading or perform energy work on someone without their explicit permission. Overriding someone’s "no" is a violation of their boundaries and can be a sign of deeper personal issues.How can I cleanse my home if I can’t use smoke? If you have sensitivities like long COVID or asthma, you can cleanse using sound (like low planetary gongs), rearranging furniture, or simmering herbs like mint and basil in a crockpot or on the stove. You can also use a spray bottle with water and herbs to mist your space clockwise to bring in energy or counterclockwise to remove it.What is the "Cuban Egg Cleansing" ritual? This ritual involves passing an egg (or a substitute like a kiwi) from your head to your feet to absorb negative energy. Afterward, the egg can be buried, disposed of, or placed under your bed; if it cracks, it is traditionally seen as a sign that negative energy was sent your way.Step into the shadows of the craft by joining the coven today to master the gray side of magic and embrace the true balance of your power.
