Let me take you on a journey through the wilds of nature and back to the roots and bones of witchcraft, a natural witchcraft that works with the seasons and all the natural items that Mother Nature provides drawing on magical folk lore with a dash of hedge witch and gypsy magic too.
Let the wind blow magic your way...
The power of the wind is mighty and can be used for all sorts of spell work because not only is the wind refreshing, cleansing, purifying and full of the energy to aid with clearing out all kinds of unwanted baggage it can also be used differently depending on what direction the wind is coming from.

An altar is a very personal thing and I firmly believe that unless you follow a strict tradition that sets the layout for you that you should ‘go with the flow’ with your altar and put things on it that your intuition guides you to.
An altar doesn’t have to be big and it doesn’t have to be fancy, just a vase of flowers on a window sill is good enough to be a focal point for your altar.

Knot Magic
Long stems of grass really lend themselves to knot magic but you can also use thin stems of plants such is ivy or even twine, string or ribbon.

Rivers, lakes, seas and oceans
Rivers, lakes, ponds, seas, oceans and any other names for large bodies of water and all with immense magical powers. Water is a necessity of life, never underestimate its power.

Sticks and twigs
If you are looking for sticks or twigs to use then I would encourage you to look on the ground first rather than cut them direct from the tree. The trees usually provide enough twiggy gifts without the need for cutting. However if you do need to cut a twig or small branch from a tree please do ask permission first, just let the tree know what you need it for and always cut cleanly, never rip it from the tree otherwise infection can set in.

Fire is a very powerful element well they all are really in their own special ways. Fire has the ability to cleanse and clear away through the force of destruction. Sometimes we do need to burn away negative influences and energy to be able to restart. Not literally of course, I am not encouraging anyone to burn down houses!
Fire can be used in spell work to burn petitions, to scry, for burning herbs and of course to provide heat for night time rituals. PLEASE… (I know I don’t really have to say this but…) if you are in the woods or forest area check that you are allowed to start a fire (a lot of places don’t give permission for obvious reasons). If you are given the go ahead make sure you take the proper precautions and don’t let it get out of hand, a fire in the woods or grassy fields can cause a huge amount of damage not only to the land and plants but also to the animals that live there.

Seeds
The offspring of plants and trees and each one has the potential for new beginnings…
