Ridding Yourself of Negative Thoughts from the Kitchen Witch Oracle. 

I radiate as a guiding light, banishing darkness and fear with the brilliance of my inner glow, purging negative thoughts and inviting positivity.

Sometimes, our inner critic grows louder than our inner truth. This card is a gentle reminder that we have the power to bring our thoughts back into balance.

Charms: The letter A invites us to begin again — to choose awareness and affirm a new way of thinking. The letter S brings us back to the self, encouraging us to silence self-doubt and step into our sovereignty.

The stethoscope is a call to listen deeply. Just as a doctor listens to the heartbeat to understand the body, we are invited to tune in to our own emotional rhythm — to notice what thoughts are healthy and which ones need to be released.

And the number 2 reminds us that all thoughts come with a choice. Do we follow the road of fear or walk the path of light? Today, we choose to realign.

For this spell you’ll need:

Sea salt

Black pepper

Juniper berries

Ginger

One apple slice (cut in half with the central star visible)

One dried bay leaf or small piece of parchment

One small orange candle

Ritual Instructions:

In a fireproof container such as a cauldron or saucepan, sprinkle the salt, pepper, berries, and ginger around the apple slice. On the bay leaf or parchment, write the negative thoughts or emotions you'd like to release.

Wrap the parchment around the orange candle and place it in the centre of the apple’s star shape so it becomes a candle holder. As you light it, focus on your affirmation and set your intention clearly: I am letting go of negativity and inviting in calm, balanced thoughts. Allow the candle to burn down safely and completely.

Repeat this ritual whenever you need to return to yourself.

Lucky Number 13: Peace and Soul Alignment from the Kitchen Witch Oracle.

I align with the mysteries of life, trusting their deep wisdom to unlock my soul’s evolution and transformation.

The card shows a wild-haired woman standing before the full moon, wings wide open, a fiery lock across her heart — embodying the passion and power of this full moon energy.

Balance is about aligning yourself with the greatest good. When you feel out of sorts, a quick spiritual pick-me-up can bring you back to your highest self.

To support this, create a peace and soul alignment oil spell jar:

Ingredients: coriander, cinnamon, fresh ground coffee, dill, garlic peel, peppermint oil, tea tree oil, olive or almond oil, and one small white candle.

Instructions: Place the dry ingredients into a small jar, breathing deeply and setting your intention. Visualise cool silver light surrounding you, bringing peace and alignment. Slowly pour in the oils, maintaining your breath and visualisation. Seal the jar with melted wax from your white candle. Carry it with you or place it on your altar to stay connected to this powerful energy.

The charms pulled today are a royal flush, a lucky four-leaf clover, and a dragon with wings outstretched — symbols of flow, luck, and protection.

Let this full moon’s fire guide your soul into peaceful alignment.

Focus and Alert Simmer Pot from the Kitchen Witch Oracle. 

As earth and air align, grant me clarity of mind, focus sharp as the winds, rooted like the ancient trees.

Today's energy calls us to steady our minds and sharpen our focus. With the grounding presence of the tree charm and the tooth with its root showing it couldn't be more clear to stay grounded. The teapot, is also a perfect image to brew herbs, this spell couldn’t be more aligned. It’s a reminder that even when the winds of life blow strong, we can stand tall and firm—clear in purpose, anchored in presence.

This simmerpot spell is designed to support your energy and mental clarity during challenging times, while filling your space with a bright, protective scent.

Ingredients:

1 lemon, cut into rounds (for alertness)

1 orange, cut into rounds (for brightness)

Fresh sage (for protection)

5 drops of eucalyptus oil (for clarity – optional)

2½ cups of water

Instructions: Place the first four ingredients in a saucepan and cover with water. Stir the mixture slowly in a clockwise direction, keeping your mind focused on welcoming energy and alertness. Let it simmer gently throughout the day, topping up with water as needed. Once cooled, pour into a clean glass jar or spray bottle. Spritz the mixture around doorways and windows to invite clarity and vibrant energy into your home.

Let the scent awaken your senses and your spirit—may your mind be clear, your focus strong, and your roots deep.

Card of the Day – Manifestation Bundle fom the Kitchen Witch Oracle.

With every breath, we synchronise with the timeless wisdom that courses through us and the abundant energy we manifest within and around.

Today’s card reminds us that what we seek is also seeking us. The Manifestation Bundle offers a simple yet sacred ritual to align our energy with the flow of abundance. Whether it’s health, prosperity, peace, or clarity—we plant the seed through intention and trust the universe to bring it to bloom.

Spell for General Abundance & Well-being
You will need:
– 1 bay leaf
– 1 small piece of parchment paper
– 1 sprig of rosemary
– 1 sprig of thyme
– 1 cinnamon stick
– Twine
– A fireproof container (cauldron or heavy saucepan)
– A wooden match

Instructions: Make sure all ingredients are dry. Write what you wish to manifest on the bay leaf. If there’s not enough space, use the parchment instead, roll it, and include it in the bundle. Tie everything tightly with twine.

Place the bundle in your fireproof container and set it alight with a wooden match. As the flames rise and the herbs release their scent, hold your focus. Let your desire be felt deeply in the body and spirit. Once the bundle burns to ash, go outside and blow the ashes into the wind, offering them to the universe.

This ritual is most potent under the full moon or the first moon of the month.

Charms for the Day: The Fish swims through the currents of flow, symbolising emotional nourishment, intuition, and effortless movement toward abundance.

The Dragonfly reminds us that transformation is gentle yet powerful—trust in what is changing.

The Letter R may hold personal resonance—a name, a place, or a word that becomes a signpost on your path today.

May this spell guide us into harmony with all that wishes to reach us.

Let it be gentle. Let it be strong. Let it be done.

HANOMAN - Loyalty 

Keywords: Bravery, Friendships, Alliance

Sigil Mantra: We have the courage to stand for those we love.

Element: Air

Hanoman, the white ape and son of the wind god Bayu, is a powerful symbol of devotion and strength. His story lives within the Ramayana epic, where he played a pivotal role in rescuing Sinta, the wife of Rama, from the clutches of RAHWANA. With his monkey's head, white fur, and human body, Hanoman was no ordinary warrior. He shapeshifted, snuck into the palace of ALENGKA, and found Sinta. Though captured and sentenced to death by fire, Hanoman escaped just before the flames consumed him. He then used his tail as a torch, setting fire to the palace. In the final battle, he lifted a mountain and crushed RAHWANA.

The wisdom: Hanoman was a ride or die — fiercely loyal, brave, and unwavering in the face of danger. When this card appears, it speaks to a deep and meaningful friendship, either present or forming. But take note: an external challenge may soon test this connection. Will we have the courage to protect what matters? Will we stand up for those we love?

Today’s charms: The sloth reminds us that loyalty doesn't have to be loud or fast — it can be gentle, steady, and ever-present.

The lightbulb shines insight on what or who truly matters in our lives.

The crown is our reminder that loyalty, when honoured, is royal — it makes us stronger together.

Today, stand united — loyal in heart, brave in spirit, and ready to protect the bonds that make us whole.

Card 44 — DWARAPALA: Boundaries

Keywords: Protection, Sacred Space, Comfort Zone

Element: Ether

Sigil Mantra: “I’m protected with this boundary I’ve created.”

The DWARAPALA stands as a powerful guardian, a carved stone figure rooted in Hindu and Buddhist architectural traditions. Often depicted with a fierce grimace, clutching a mace, this demon-like protector wards off evil and safeguards sacred spaces. Usually found in pairs guarding temple entrances, DWARAPALAs mark the threshold between the mundane and the sacred, a reminder that some grounds—and some moments—must be protected.

Today, the wisdom of DWARAPALA calls on you to set firm boundaries. You may have carried the weight of others’ problems for far too long. Now is the time to learn to say no and create your own sacred space. You are not obligated to be a constant saviour; nor must you feel guilty for taking time to recharge and tend to your own light. Your kindness and gentle soul have often led you to give 100% to your loved ones, but what happens when you lose sight of yourself?

Love blossoms from within. To continue sharing it freely, you must nurture yourself first. Taking breaks, stepping back, and honouring your comfort zone are acts of strength—not weakness.

The charms drawn—the motorbike, scissors, and spanner—symbolise your journey in crafting these boundaries. The motorbike represents the freedom to choose your own path and speed, breaking away when needed. The scissors speak to the power of cutting ties or habits that no longer serve your well-being. And the spanner reminds you that boundaries are tools you can adjust and fine-tune as you navigate life’s complexities.
