    🌻 Litha Sabbat Is Almost Here!

    Litha, the summer solstice, arrives on June 21-22, marking the peak of the sun’s power and the height of summer’s bloom. It’s a perfect time to honor light, growth, and transformation.

    ☀️Here’s what you can do:

    Refresh your altar with summer herbs, crystals, and symbols of fire and sun Make simple offerings like flowers, herbs, or even a small glass of water or wine.

    🍃Celebrate on a budget by spending time outside soaking up the sun or journaling your intentions.

    📥 If you work on the solstice, take a moment during breaks to light a candle, say an affirmation, or set an intention for the season.

    👁️ Keep an eye out for more posts and content focused on Litha, Lilith, solstice magic, and self-love as the day approaches.

    Speaking of Lilith A Little About her ayeee.

    Lilith’s energy is deeply tied to radical self-love, independence, and reclaiming power. You’ll see her influence woven through this Sabbat’s magic and the self-love spell bags dropping this season.

    👏🏻 Info below on the spell bag I said was dropping this season and more

    🌸 Built for Blooming

    Self-Love Spell Bag Showcase

    This bag was built with intention and growth, for healing, for soft power that doesn’t need to explain itself. Made to carry you through the brightest part of the year and still hold you close in the darker ones.

    Each spell bag is a layered offering of gentle strength and self-adoration. Nestled in a pink bag with a white outer shell, it contains a handcrafted blend of crystal chips and herbs carefully chosen for confidence, inner balance, and protection of the heart.

    🔮 What’s Inside:

    Crystals:

    • 1 amethyst chip

    • 3 rose quartz chips

    Herbs + Additions:

    • Pink salt

    • Rosemary

    • Lavender

    • White willow bark

    • Lemongrass

    🔥 Energetic Focus:

    Self-worth that glows from within

    Softness with sharp edges

    Confidence like firelight

    A quiet bloom that never needs permission

    🌙 Care and Use:

    Recharge under full moonlight or strong sunlight every month.

    Keep in your purse, under your pillow, on your desk, in your car, or resting on your altar.

    🖤 Optional Lilith Note:

    🛍️ [Available now – https://poeaxtry.etsy.com or DM/email for custom requests.]

    ✨ More Magic Now Available

    Alongside Built for Blooming, three other handcrafted spell bags have joined the lineup — each one with its own focused energy and enchantment. These bags are made with the same care and layered intention, blending herbs, crystals, and color work to support different spiritual needs:

    🌶️ Magnetic Attraction – 6 red bags

    Draw in heat, intensity, and lustful connection. For when you want to feel seen and sought after.

    🌿 Prosperity & Abundance – 8 green bags

    Plant seeds and watch your blessings multiply. A steady flow of grounded wealth and opportunities.

    🔥 Bonding Flame Spell – 4 red bags with black outer layer

    For passion with roots. Romantic fire meant to last. Bold love, loyal connection, deep craving.

    Each is available now. Custom combinations and requests are welcome just send a message or email. Do note each of these bags is limited. So, when they’re gone, they’re truly gone. If I recreate the exact same blend, it will be sold under the same name. If it’s a different mix made with similar intent, it will carry a new name or if the ingredients are almost identical we may call it 2.0 or something. It will be clearly marked as a remix or variation of the original. These are living spells, tied to the moment and what materials speak at the time.

    Allergy concerns? Though I do live in the moment and create with intent health concerns are obviously not something I take lightly. Please email me! I’ll get you the item you want minus your allergen or something else that fits your need and keeps you safe.

  • What Makes Spell Work Work; Clear Intention, Personal Chants, and Charging Magic Without Tools

    What Makes Spell Work Work; Clear Intention, Personal Chants, and Charging Magic Without Tools

    What Makes a Spell Work?

    A spell works because you work it. It’s not the candles, the herbs, or the moon that bend reality. It’s your mind, your focus, and the clarity of your desire. When you strip away the shiny trappings, what remains is pure intention fueled by emotional weight. Your spell is a pulse of will sent into the universe; if your intention is fuzzy, the spell is too.

    I’ve seen spells fail because people hide what they really want or wrap it in vague “good vibes.” That’s the opposite of working magic. A spell demands brutal honesty with yourself: what exactly do you need, and why do you need it? Without that clarity, your energy scatters.

    How to Set Intention Clearly

    Forget vague phrases. Intentions have to cut like a blade through the noise in your mind. Here’s how I do it:

    Pinpoint the root feeling: Is it fear, anger, grief, longing? Don’t dance around it. Define the exact change. Avoid vague terms like “happiness” or “success.” Be specific, such as stating, “I want to stand in my voice without shaking.” Or say, “I want to stop feeling dread when I look in the mirror.” Own your boundaries: Spell work isn’t a free-for-all. What won’t you accept or give away in this process? That sharp line grounds your intention.

    Example:

    “I release the habit of shrinking myself, so others feel comfortable. I claim space with my whole body and voice.”

    It’s direct, emotional, and personal. That’s what makes it real.

    Writing a Basic Chant Personal, Raw, and Resonant

    A chant is your spell in sound. It should feel like your own voice speaking your truth no borrowed lines, no generic affirmations. Here’s what I do:

    Use simple, clear language that feels natural to you. Don’t force rhyme or flow if it’s not there. Repeat a phrase that hits an emotional nerve for you. Keep it short and raw just enough to summon the feeling you want to carry.

    Example chant I wrote for reclaiming strength:

    “I am here. I am loud. I am not afraid.”

    Another, for healing after trauma:

    “Pain was real, pain is passed. I am whole again.”

    These aren’t polished or pretty; they’re honest and charged because they’re mine.

    Charging a Spell Without Tools & How to Use Passive Magic

    You don’t need crystals, candles, or herbs to charge a spell. Your presence and focus are the tools.

    Passive magic means charging your spell by being holding your intention steady through everyday moments:

    Walking in the woods, feeling your feet on the earth. Breathing deeply and letting the intention root in your body. Carrying your chant silently in your mind throughout the day.

    No elaborate ritual required. The magic works when your mind and body believe it.

    In contrast, active magic is deliberate action: chanting aloud, lighting candles, or making gestures. Both work, but passive magic is powerful for those times you can’t or won’t perform a ritual.

    Final Thoughts

    Spell work is not about perfection or presentation. It’s about showing up raw and honest to yourself. Name your truth. Send that truth out into the world with confidence. When your intention is sharp, your chant becomes your voice. Your energy is real. Without tools, your magic still moves.

    🚨The Spill: Letters from Poeaxtry, Volume Five: Small Business Warning: My Experience With a Misleading Promoter🚨

    Vol. 5- newsletter : May 31st, 2025.

    Lesson Learned vet Promoters and have them make reels & post ebooks before I send any physical items.

    🚨 Small Business Warning🚨

    Let me be clear: do not reach out to Daisy Marie Moncrief.

    This post isn’t about harassment or revenge. Karma is my homie, and my craft speaks louder than any confrontation ever could. I have 5 litter boxes and I know it’s fitting

    I’m sharing this so other artists and makers don’t end up in the same situation.

    Daisy was the only promoter who ever asked to join my team she reached out to me after I made a post. The others who followed through were all ones I pitched too. She told me she loved my handmade creations and wanted to post them. I agreed and mailed her $81 worth of custom product, free of charge. She confirmed delivery and said she was excited to share.

    But then she went silent.

    After some time, she explained she had just moved and needed space to settle in. I completely understood . O hate moving too. I gave her months, I waited silently. I didn’t pressure her. I didn’t nag. I trusted she was just not ready.

    After waiting patiently, I sent two polite nudges on TikTok. She ignored them both. Until

    she finally responded, she told me she had “a new boyfriend and didn’t have time for this (you know her end of the bargain) .” She also claimed she doesn’t post at all anymore. I looked she had posted five times just the day before. I followed up kindly and created an invoice, giving her another full month to pay or see me in small claims court.

    That’s when she said she lives in a tent, has no job, and can’t pay me back. She then said my work was shit. Even though she had praised it before I had put boundaries in place.

    I want to be clear:

    🟣 I never asked for money in the beginning.

    🟣 I didn’t want anything but a few honest, creative posts.

    🟣 I don’t want the items back. She got sent. Spray she claimed was empty and I know it was not.

    🟣 I definitely don’t want promotion from someone who talks down on my work because she was asked to hold up her end. And then offers to make one measly post. I said no it’s within my legal rights.

    I just wanted mutual respect and a fair collaboration Instead, I got ghosted, disrespected, and dismissed. And a total lack of accountability.

    I’m not here to ruin anyone’s life. I’m not profiting off her. I’m not even mad anymore, I am just wiser. I do not need her to pay money she doesn’t have or make a video I’m no longer willing to use. I want not one tie to someone who is clearly looking to scam. I will not be scammed or disrespected in silence.

    If you’re a creator, especially a marginalized one:

    Please protect your energy. Vet your collaborations. Don’t give away your labor and craft without care. It needs to be fair. So you are aware fair isn’t free shit and no follow through.

    Moving forward, I will still offer free items (with free shipping) for collabs. The promoter should have a min 1 k followers. They will receive 1 digital copy of one of my books for free. When they make their posts and reels for the first e-book, we can discuss sending the next, until all digital material is promoted. We will move onto physical items and reading and I will send one at a time until a relationship is established.

    I’ll be busy tonight with the craft. Trust, I’m alright. Karma never misses. 🌙
