I read a book, urban fantasy, and a character says they had a witch bless their car with "good parking juju."

Just for fun, my witches, what components would you use for a spell like this? Might make a good Yuletide gift 🤔

I'd probably do some kind of sigil...

More than two years ago, I wrote this blog: "Calling the Fates to hex the Nazis - a spell for magical activism"

I have been doing that spell ever since, daily.
Sometimes, I wasn't able to light a candle for some reasons, for instance when travelling. I then did the spell in my mind.
I don't read the whole spell every day, sometimes I just light the candle and think about the main points and say them out loud.
This is not a sprint, this is a marathon.

And finally, I have some hope again that fascism won't win.
And as the German publicist and psychologist Marina Weisband said in her podcast: "Fascism always destroys itself. It is not a stable political system."

Here is the spell and feel free to boost this.

Retoot, found this in my journal.

What people think witches do:
"Well, it's a total eclipse this Sunday and the stars are aligned in this way, which is especially sacred AND we have a full moon, so we must do our special ritual this Sunday at mid­night, as it has been predicted decades ago ..."

What actual modern witches do:
"My kid's babysitter has just cancelled for Sunday."
"I can't make it on Sunday, have to be with the parents-in-law or they will be pissed."
"How about Thursday, after work, my place?"
"Deal."

I have an idea to write a textbook for a free 30-day self-guided witchcraft course, so I've been working on a series of introductory texts. This is the first of four, “A Condensed History” of modern witchcraft.

Here I am again, a writer/artist (i.e., small business) letting you know about some of the things I do. I find marketing awkward, but it's a necessity these days, so please bear with me.

This is the second edition of my first book: Ancient Spellcraft. It's full of spells for a variety of needs and circumstances, in connection with powerful ancient deities. Expand your polytheism and your magic as you explore the possibilities!
