When you said "Taxes" I thought I heard you say "Texas" 🤣 I LOVE those hanging eggs on those branches. An interesting thing happens for me on the topic of cleansing, basically everytime I thrift something for my craft (that is waterproof) it usually rains when I get home, so I immediately put out all my items I just bought in the rain to cleanse them.
I don't have anything about Texas hahah (well, I don't agree with some Texan laws but that is another story 😅). the eggs are Sorbian Easter eggs - they have a specific meaning in folk practice. I made them in my Ostara vlog from last year and explained a bit more about the symbolism ☺️ so cool with the rainy thrift days - a wonderful way to cleanse!
Sound is such an understated cleansing method. Even clapping your hands cleanses your surroundings. I am literally about to brew my cleansing spray so I can spray it while blasting death metal in my room like a crazed auntie
This is amazing dear! I now know what's been up with me and collecting bad energy "unawares". As a child, I was just labeled as a "sensitive" child. It always bothered me and I felt isolated for my sensitive side. Now I am all grown up and still drawing negative energies from our World. But you have explained my situation and I am oh so ever joyful for this new enlightenment. A New-Bee (Art Witch) from the Land of Enchantment. Good luck with your upcoming little bundle of Joy.
An "Ooohhh!" Moment: Cleaning one's spiritual jewelry - I just had my spiritual horizons broadened. Thanks for this, and all of the other wonderful tips from this post.
This video was sooo enlightening! I always struggle relating to people when they talk about energy, it sounds so woo-woo to me. Your perspective and explanations make it sound a lot more accessible for a non believer like me ☺️
I totally get what you mean!! Definitely feel the same when it gets too woowoo - for me it is basically just a fancy term for describing a 'feeling towards something' 😄
Perfect! Haven’t done an energy cleansing in awhile and I’m definitely feeling it! It’s April and has been overcast and rainy for what seems like forever…the walls are closing in. Time to open up the Roof! I’m more of an open the windows and smudging kinda girl! Sage and Sweetgrass…Let it ALL out and bring in the new!
Yesssss...My kindergartner came home sick from school...it carried over and now my first grader and fifth grader are all in there like a hair in a biscuit...😬...they even got me!!! No Covid, flu, or strep...all test results came back negative...so I stayed up all last night sneezing and scrubbing until 5:00A.M. I am glad to see your doing well and nesting...Bex stay off your feet for six weeks after the new golden nugget arrives (as much as possible). Maybe Grandmother can come visit and do all the things.😊 My granny wouldn't let me do anything but go out on the porch for one hour at the warmer part of the day, pee, eat, and wash and tend to the baby. The old folks said you could cause your body to stay open longer if your standing on your feet too much after giving birth; I do hope you have some help😉. I love your content it does me a world of good to see your videos.💓 You are a true inspiration, I want you to do well and fully heal after your birthday extravaganza!!! Thank you for all you do, I greatly appreciate you! Much love and BIG Energy your way dear. Do take care....🦋
Oh noooo - having the kiddos sick (and the domino effect it has on the family) is the worst!! Take good care of yourself and hope everyone is feeling 💯 again soon ❤️ we have abuela coming for two weeks around the birth date so there will definitely be some help. But I am super bad with staying in bed hahah with my first I was up and about, hiking, meeting friends and going on adventures after the first 3 days 😅 I am like the worst patient ever
Bex, of all the witches who greet their audience with an endearment, you are the only one who doesn't sound fake to me. Thanks for your warm energy! And good luck with the baby!
Thank you! I was so excited when Ana Luisa brought it out and it is the one I wear most 😄 I'm a passionate mommy too - nothing brings me more joy (and dark circles under the eyes 😅) ❤️
Hi! Three days older than Jesus here… I just wanted to reiterate how refreshing your videos are. I really enjoy your positivity and the fact that your approach to witchery is so enlightened. I’ve always been a "fly by the seat of my pants" kind of witch; meaning I use what I have on hand and trust my instincts. I, too, do not care for the sage smoke. It’s nice to see some content on TH-cam that is bright and uplifting when it comes to the craft. Thanks for all you do! By the way, you’re positively glowing and look amazing! 🥰🌈🤍
Hihi nice to see you again!! You have quite the way with phrases, don't you? 😂 Never heard that fly sentence - have to Google it 😅 thank you so much for your very sweet comment ❤️ have a most magical weekend!
Your videos have some of the best energy I've ever encountered. I always feel the warmest fuzziest feelings when I watch them, so they're an essential part of my self care routine! Thank you so much for the work and love you put into your videos. Not only are they entertaining and educational, but they're genuinely healing as well 💕 You are such a blessing
This is why I connect to you and your channel. I am also of a scientific mundane also I do not like all of those rules. My own intuition has always served me well. Thank you for all of your ideas and I hope you are feeling well.
Very upbeat energy coming from you today..... Must be all the cleansing 😆 so many great tips and ideas. I usually use sound or water or both to cleanse on a physical, emotional, mental or spiritual level, depending on what needs doing. And I always save my used up lemons to help with the greasy dishes while washing up. They are magical fruits full of sunny energy. Thanks for this 💕🌟🥳
Heheh must be the cleansing indeed! I think it might be the spring weather 😄 I am a big fan of sound and water cleanses in all forms too! And I also do sauna rituals for mental and physical cleansing ✨
Absolutely delightful as always! Sometimes I feel like you are reading my mind… Thank you so much for putting so much beautiful work and effort into these videos. You are so knowledgeable and so full of bright, shining energy. Thank you. Blessed be.
i just did my birth chart and it indicated that I'm a Pleiadian Starseed which totally explains me 1000% my personality etc. and explains my strong interest in the metaphysical & paranormal e.g. Witchcraft and Astronomy; galaxies with much love and light Blessed Be!
You are the best! You have the best way of teaching and sharing with your wonderful humor.. how I wish we were neighbors! As always your natural looking home is so beautiful. Love your videos.
I have been feeling cloudy and depressed these days and this video just help me to put myself together and start cleaning 😅 thank you so much lovely. The finale was glorious ❤️
This hand wash song in the end 🤣👍🏻 Haha and you really shocked me Bex!! Me expecting nothing bad while watching you cheerfully talking between plants, flowers and fairy lights and than this demon effect 🤣 But amazingly done!!! I love the recipe for the spray, definitely need to try it 🍋🍊
I know you don't like sage but I'm willing to bet many of your viewers do. I've been doing some research on white sage and found that it's wild white sage that is endangered. Folks that grow and harvest it sustainably are fine. In fact they're good companies losing business because so many don't know about the true status of farmed sage. And no, there isn't an issue with cultural appropriation. Several folks I contacted who live on our near Southwestern tribal lands say it's more about respect and sustainability, especially regarding the spirit of the plant. Which totally makes sense.. (and a few Native American owned Etsy shops have been impacted too!) So I hope this helps some people out there. I don't sell it but I use it often.
Absolutely and also very true what you say here - definitely worth a read for all the North-American witches here ☺️ in Europe we traditionally only use garden sage, as white sage isn't native to here
@@Thewitchescookery I've dried, bundled and cleansed with that variety of sage (we use it for cooking here) and it smells Amaaaazing... Also felt like it "did the job"
@@Thewitchescookery hast du schon mal daran gedacht ein Video zu Tarot zu machen? Meine Einstellung ähnelt sehr der deinen, bin auch eher eine skeptische Hexe (also eher Wissenschaft als Religion) Die meisten Videos zu Tarot sind sehr "esoterisch" Ich würde es lieber zur Selbstreflexion nutzen, hab aber keine Ahnung wie ich am besten damit anfange
@@lilwinchester1417 ich hab es ein paar Mal in verschiedenen Videos am Rande erwähnt aber eventuell mach ich Mal ein ganzes Video dazu. Ich bin leider nicht so der suuuuper Tarot Experte hihi
I love your cleansing videos, I have a lot of issues with stagnant and negative energies clinging to my house like glue, and its a rental so it’s extra icky energy-wise. I tried salting my carpets just the other day and my goodness, the house just felt so happy and free!
Your so awesome.... Lavender and frankincense always magically make my mood calm and cleansed. Spritz it everywhere. Loved the message of self care. Blessings
Hahahhaha - not a demon in human form! You're in good company; I don't like the smell of burning white sage inside my home. It's so strong. But, I've learned to appreciate it, in small amounts, outside. My favorite traditional cleansing herb to burn is sweet grass.
Hehehe never tried sweet grass (it does grow here but doesn't belong to our traditional smoke cleansing herbs) but I love the smell of meadowsweet when burned! And all the local resins ✨
Hah, I had someone move out of my property about a month ago (okay, I MAY have done a working to get rid of her. But only cos she lied about me to my man, then yelled in my face when I called her out on it). I spent a full day doing a cleanse on her part of the house using a bunch of elements you mentioned here, all with the very clear intention of getting rid of her negative energy. Place feels a lot better now. She's fine, my working was to get her gone not to hurt her, she just found a new place to live that was perfect for her in an extraordinarily timely manner.
Omg I’m an agnostic, secular, skeptical witch too!!! Btw I love your personality! You’re my favorite TH-cam witch! Thank you so much for doing these videos!!!
Having worked in a tax office (and had just put in my month's notice after almost 4 years), I share your dread of the tax office energy. Mine gave me panic attacks as a result. Yes. They ARE places to fear and dread.
I love spring for cleansing. I need to soon life’s been so chaotic recently and that’s not my norm. If I haven’t said it yet congrats on the little one on the way!
As a lazy person who doesn't like smoke or fire I'm so grateful for this video haha. I love your alternatives for smoke cleansing so I might try some on less lazy moments (metal, yay). :) Thanks also for highlighting the importance of ethical consuming, that's indeed so much more effective than any (other) type of cleansing!
Personally I always gave it a good scrub (with some cottage witchery), decorated according to my taste so certain spaces would hold certain energies for me and then had a traditional party where people would gift salt and bread as it is custom ☺️
@@Thewitchescookery Perfect! It’s our first home that will actually be OURS and I want to do it right! Thank you so much! And thank you for all your beautiful videos and knowledge! 🖤🖤🖤
It’s tax season in the US, they give me anxiety too! I’m so relieved after it’s over. Cleaning also gives me massive anxiety, hopefully this will help. ;-)
I feel with you! It is the most stressful thing 😅 and yes, cleaning is definitely also not a favourite pastime of mine - but I can tolerate it in spring hihi
Oooh. I hate the smile from burning sage as well! I always felt bad but that brought me to put foil in my smoking device and put Zirbenholz on it. The smell is just... 😍❤️ Interestingly, here in Switzerland the besom is still regularly used by the City cleaning 😳😍
Oooh Zirbenholz - love the smell! In Bavaria we also still use the besoms - a couple of years ago, they tried to change it to plastic in Munich and the city cleaners rebelled against it as they didn't like it 😄 I think I told the story in my Samhain vlog from 2 years ago
LOL at minute 4:12, I swear you said "I hate Texas." I cracked up... and thought "a lot of people do." Then I realized you said Taxes. LOL.... Yes, I also have a fond hatred for the IRS. :)
Ahahah I have never been to Texas so other then some political concerns I don't have strong feelings concerning Texas. Taxes on the other hand are the bane of my existence...
@@Thewitchescookery I love the energy you put off..! I’m a outside person as well I love being in nature far away from city lights ☺️ I love to explore the woods around my place and I know to keep my eyes and ears open to all the possibilities that is out there.. I on peoples moods and I think it would bel uplifting experience to be able to hangout with you
I really enjoy your videos. Even though I'm personally not really an atheist, I strive to be practical and question everything. I may just be a rebel too, who knows. Anywho, I truly appreciate your perspective.
Another wonderful video!! Thank you. This was exactly the topic I needed. I cannot use sage or smoke at home (a sensitive cat lives here) So I am excited to try these ideas. Magical blessings to you and your family. ⭐️ 🌸 🌙
Great video becks and your looking very well.bath salts are great better than putting a load of chemicals in your bath!! You can't beat natural ingredients.blessings from devon.🛀👩🍳🧂🍳🤎
Awesome video!! I was watching this at night so when the demon jump scare happened I was actually a little scared *laughs nervously* Here's a video idea: If possible, could you please make a video about the different types of trees and their magical uses? I'm sooooo interested to know and there isn't too much information online about it. Thank you so much! (even if you don't think it's a good idea) I love your videos sm! Have a great day :) :)
Sorry for scaring you 😄 I love the video idea! I can only elaborate from a Germanic background as trees of course have a different symbolism and meaning in different cultures but I already put some info here and there in vlogs. I think I have a whole bit about the elder tree in my last Litha vlog (towards the end) and a bit about the hazel tree (and I believe other ones) in a video called Forest witch. But I will definitely do another video with more info ✨
@@Thewitchescookery thank you so much! I’ll definitely check out the Litha vlog (and the forest witch one is one of my favorite videos on TH-cam period) I can’t wait to learn more about elder; I spent the entire winter hunting for an elder tree in the woods until I finally found one a few weeks ago! It’s going to be so much fun getting to know it’s properties. Thanks again!
Love love love this video 💖 I need to spring clean so bad, I done my kitchen the other week 😊 so I am gonna go and clean clean clean, open my windows and out some incense on xx do u have a video about making your own smudge stick? 💫
That's the spirit!!! 💪💪💪💪✨ Get those dust mites hihi I do think I have a video that shows how to make one. I believe it is called something like cozy hearth witchcraft. If you go to my old videos, I should have posted it autumn two years ago
Another great video with lots of good ideas! Did you get an editor? There's something a little different about this one. Yes, I too don't love the smell and smoke of sage and like to use physical cleaning, sun, rain, sound, some incense, and oils to create moods. xo, Aurora
Thank you ☺️ I wiiiiish I could afford that hahah but alas not yet - maybe in two years or so 😅 it definitely helps to include all the senses to create mood and atmosphere ✨
Another lovely video. I love a good smoke cleanse but you make such a good point about using alternatives like simmer pots and sprays so we don’t breathe in too much smoke! Also, that little hedgehog candle by the bath is so cute. Where did you get it?
Thanks so much - and glad you like the alternatives to the smoke cleanse too! That hedgehog candle is yeeears old but I think I got it from IKEA? It is probably not sold anymore though :-/
Hi! People who works with deities, especially Greek ones. Which God can I approach spiritually for an energetic cleansing of my house? Do you know any reliable creators who talk about this with an approach similar to this witch?
When cleansing enchanted jewelry, does it take off the spell i put on it? Or would it only do that if i specifically had that intention. Ty if you answer ❤
Hii! I'm hoping this isn't a silly question, but for the purifying spray, can you use dried herbs and/or essential oils? Not that I can't pick up some lemons and whatnot the next time I make a grocery store trip, but in the spirit of using what I already have an abundance of on hand :)
Absolutely! If you are using essential oils it even has a longer shelf life :)) and you don't need to let it infuse of course but can use it right away! I would either just mix them with alcohol or witch hazel or with a bit of water (only make a small batch so it doesn't spoil)
I usually just steralize them: boil them in a pot with hot water for 10 minutes and then let them air dry until all the moist is out :) that way your washes and oils don't spoil. I don't do anything extra really ☺️
When you said "Taxes" I thought I heard you say "Texas" 🤣 I LOVE those hanging eggs on those branches. An interesting thing happens for me on the topic of cleansing, basically everytime I thrift something for my craft (that is waterproof) it usually rains when I get home, so I immediately put out all my items I just bought in the rain to cleanse them.
I don't have anything about Texas hahah (well, I don't agree with some Texan laws but that is another story 😅). the eggs are Sorbian Easter eggs - they have a specific meaning in folk practice. I made them in my Ostara vlog from last year and explained a bit more about the symbolism ☺️ so cool with the rainy thrift days - a wonderful way to cleanse!
I saw this comment prior and still thought she said Texas 🤣🤣
Sound is such an understated cleansing method. Even clapping your hands cleanses your surroundings. I am literally about to brew my cleansing spray so I can spray it while blasting death metal in my room like a crazed auntie
You turning into a demon caught me so off guard 😂 I need to cry in the bath now 😂😂
From my practice, I brew chamomile tea and put it into a spray bottle to spray it around my house to ward and cleanse negativity
That is a wonderful idea too!! My mom always uses chamomile in home sprays too
This is amazing dear! I now know what's been up with me and collecting bad energy "unawares". As a child, I was just labeled as a "sensitive" child. It always bothered me and I felt isolated for my sensitive side. Now I am all grown up and still drawing negative energies from our World. But you have explained my situation and I am oh so ever joyful for this new enlightenment. A New-Bee (Art Witch) from the Land of Enchantment. Good luck with your upcoming little bundle of Joy.
I am so happy this video helped you clear some things up for yourself ❤️
OMG 😂😂😂 I just love the faces you make. Your energy always cheers me up!!
Hahah glad to hear 😄
An "Ooohhh!" Moment:
Cleaning one's spiritual jewelry - I just had my spiritual horizons broadened. Thanks for this, and all of the other wonderful tips from this post.
It definitely is a great way to assign it new intention and fresh magick ☺️✨
This video was sooo enlightening! I always struggle relating to people when they talk about energy, it sounds so woo-woo to me. Your perspective and explanations make it sound a lot more accessible for a non believer like me ☺️
I totally get what you mean!! Definitely feel the same when it gets too woowoo - for me it is basically just a fancy term for describing a 'feeling towards something' 😄
I trace the snowy tree branches and watch the icy snowflakes melt away too. It calming for me.
Perfect! Haven’t done an energy cleansing in awhile and I’m definitely feeling it! It’s April and has been overcast and rainy for what seems like forever…the walls are closing in.

Oh that sounds horrible!! So sorry to hear - working in a place that holds a negative energy for you must be such a headache ❤️
eeh donna ..lol 70s
Iyou pick me up immediately. you and feablous positive ENERGY... thanks for being out here..gonna check way mire often..cheers
Hehe glad you connect with it 😄👏👏✨ have a magical day!
Awesome video! The demon eyes made me jump, you are so funny! 🧚🏼♀️✨
Thank you! And sorry hihi 😈
I love spring for cleansing. I need to soon life’s been so chaotic recently and that’s not my norm.
If I haven’t said it yet congrats on the little one on the way!
Sorry to hear, life is chaotic at the moment ❤️ I hope the spring cleanse brings in refreshing and calming energy ✨
@@Thewitchescookery it’s good things that have me busy but yeah busy is busy thank you I’m sure it will return to normal soon
As a lazy person who doesn't like smoke or fire I'm so grateful for this video haha. I love your alternatives for smoke cleansing so I might try some on less lazy moments (metal, yay). :) Thanks also for highlighting the importance of ethical consuming, that's indeed so much more effective than any (other) type of cleansing!
Heheh nice to hear it resonates with you too 😄 and yes, ethical consuming definitely is important!
‘Take in a huge smudge stick,
Smoke all the taxes out’’ 😂love it
I adore you so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ love and blessings from Biloxi Mississippi
Sending much love back from southern Germany to your corner of the world ❤️
Fantastic video Bex, such an uplifting video 😊
Thank you, lovely Carly ✨🌱❤️
Hey, do any of you lovely people have suggestions for things to do before moving into/preparing a new home? 🙏🖤✨
Personally I always gave it a good scrub (with some cottage witchery), decorated according to my taste so certain spaces would hold certain energies for me and then had a traditional party where people would gift salt and bread as it is custom ☺️
@@Thewitchescookery Perfect! It’s our first home that will actually be OURS and I want to do it right! Thank you so much! And thank you for all your beautiful videos and knowledge! 🖤🖤🖤
I just love your videos and your sense of humor. :)
So happy to hear ☺️
It’s tax season in the US, they give me anxiety too! I’m so relieved after it’s over. Cleaning also gives me massive anxiety, hopefully this will help. ;-)
I feel with you! It is the most stressful thing 😅 and yes, cleaning is definitely also not a favourite pastime of mine - but I can tolerate it in spring hihi
I really like your style! Thank you!
🤗✨
u have taught me so much, i greatly Appreciate u so much
Lovely to hear that! I wish you the most magical day ✨
Oooh. I hate the smile from burning sage as well! I always felt bad but that brought me to put foil in my smoking device and put Zirbenholz on it. The smell is just... 😍❤️
Interestingly, here in Switzerland the besom is still regularly used by the City cleaning 😳😍
Oooh Zirbenholz - love the smell! In Bavaria we also still use the besoms - a couple of years ago, they tried to change it to plastic in Munich and the city cleaners rebelled against it as they didn't like it 😄 I think I told the story in my Samhain vlog from 2 years ago
Just what I needed🥰 thank you😘
🤗✨
I am late, but I love your video. Thank you so so much! 😊
I am so happy to hear that! Have a wonderful weekend 😘
LOL at minute 4:12, I swear you said "I hate Texas." I cracked up... and thought "a lot of people do." Then I realized you said Taxes. LOL.... Yes, I also have a fond hatred for the IRS. :)
Ahahah I have never been to Texas so other then some political concerns I don't have strong feelings concerning Texas. Taxes on the other hand are the bane of my existence...
LMAO. Your videos always make me laugh. Thank you!
☺️💛
I just love your videos thank you! 💜💜
Glad you like them! 🤗💖
I’m so happy I just got here!!!!
Oooh that sounds like so much fun!!! Enjoy ☺️✨
I love your videos 🥰 thank you for sharing..!
And thank you for leaving this sweet comment 😊❤️
@@Thewitchescookery I love the energy you put off..! I’m a outside person as well I love being in nature far away from city lights ☺️ I love to explore the woods around my place and I know to keep my eyes and ears open to all the possibilities that is out there.. I on peoples moods and I think it would bel uplifting experience to be able to hangout with you
I really enjoy your videos. Even though I'm personally not really an atheist, I strive to be practical and question everything. I may just be a rebel too, who knows. Anywho, I truly appreciate your perspective.
So happy to hear! A bit of rebel mindset is definitely a healthy trait to have hihi
@@Thewitchescookery I wholeheartedly agree.
Thank you for this video. I love your channel 💖 all the way from Trinidad 🇹🇹
Thank you for your kind comment! Sending much love from Germany ✨❤️
Another wonderful video!! Thank you. This was exactly the topic I needed. I cannot use sage or smoke at home (a sensitive cat lives here) So I am excited to try these ideas. Magical blessings to you and your family. ⭐️ 🌸 🌙
Thank you lovely ❤️ hope they work well for you - and kitty! Sending much love
I hate taxes too they always email me! To hurry and do mine grrrr. Love the video
Yeeees, here the send letters and I dread them!!
Beautiful and informative! Thank you ☺️
Thank you 🥰
Such great ideas And You rocked that Babushka! (Thats what we call that headware in ukrainian)
Love your videos!💜💙💚💛🧡❤
Hihi thank you! I admit I didn't hate the look 😂 much love ❤️
Great video becks and your looking very well.bath salts are great better than putting a load of chemicals in your bath!! You can't beat natural ingredients.blessings from devon.🛀👩🍳🧂🍳🤎
Thank you! I love natural and DIY goodness from nature too - feels better than all that plastic crap 😄✨
i seriously love u xo
Oh you are sweet ☺️
Awesome video!! I was watching this at night so when the demon jump scare happened I was actually a little scared *laughs nervously*
Here's a video idea: If possible, could you please make a video about the different types of trees and their magical uses? I'm sooooo interested to know and there isn't too much information online about it. Thank you so much! (even if you don't think it's a good idea)
I love your videos sm! Have a great day :) :)
Sorry for scaring you 😄 I love the video idea! I can only elaborate from a Germanic background as trees of course have a different symbolism and meaning in different cultures but I already put some info here and there in vlogs. I think I have a whole bit about the elder tree in my last Litha vlog (towards the end) and a bit about the hazel tree (and I believe other ones) in a video called Forest witch. But I will definitely do another video with more info ✨
@@Thewitchescookery thank you so much! I’ll definitely check out the Litha vlog (and the forest witch one is one of my favorite videos on TH-cam period) I can’t wait to learn more about elder; I spent the entire winter hunting for an elder tree in the woods until I finally found one a few weeks ago! It’s going to be so much fun getting to know it’s properties. Thanks again!
Love love love this video 💖 I need to spring clean so bad, I done my kitchen the other week 😊 so I am gonna go and clean clean clean, open my windows and out some incense on xx do u have a video about making your own smudge stick? 💫
That's the spirit!!! 💪💪💪💪✨ Get those dust mites hihi I do think I have a video that shows how to make one. I believe it is called something like cozy hearth witchcraft. If you go to my old videos, I should have posted it autumn two years ago
@@Thewitchescookery when are you due your little baby? I am due in July so no doubt I will be cleaning mad in June 🤣
@@carolmactavish6822 at the very end of May! Oh that is so exciting 👏👏👏 hope the last trimester isn't too hard on you
Cool😃
Thank you ❣️
Thanks! I really needed this. My family has had rotten luck lately, and I was thinking a cleansing ritual might help.
So sorry to hear - hope it turnes to good luck very soon! And a cleansing ritual sounds like a lovely idea
@@Thewitchescookery Thanks!
Another great video with lots of good ideas! Did you get an editor? There's something a little different about this one. Yes, I too don't love the smell and smoke of sage and like to use physical cleaning, sun, rain, sound, some incense, and oils to create moods. xo, Aurora
Thank you ☺️ I wiiiiish I could afford that hahah but alas not yet - maybe in two years or so 😅 it definitely helps to include all the senses to create mood and atmosphere ✨
Another lovely video. I love a good smoke cleanse but you make such a good point about using alternatives like simmer pots and sprays so we don’t breathe in too much smoke!
Also, that little hedgehog candle by the bath is so cute. Where did you get it?
Thanks so much - and glad you like the alternatives to the smoke cleanse too! That hedgehog candle is yeeears old but I think I got it from IKEA? It is probably not sold anymore though :-/
The way you just chomp the orange peels so neatly with a knife is quite impressive to me for some reason lol
Hahah thank you 😅💕
Hi! People who works with deities, especially Greek ones. Which God can I approach spiritually for an energetic cleansing of my house? Do you know any reliable creators who talk about this with an approach similar to this witch?
When cleansing enchanted jewelry, does it take off the spell i put on it? Or would it only do that if i specifically had that intention. Ty if you answer ❤
Me: laughing at Alexa
Me after a few seconds: 😭😭😭
OMG it's really freaked me out! I'm glad you're not a demon in human form!
Hahqh sorry!!!
Hii! I'm hoping this isn't a silly question, but for the purifying spray, can you use dried herbs and/or essential oils? Not that I can't pick up some lemons and whatnot the next time I make a grocery store trip, but in the spirit of using what I already have an abundance of on hand :)
Absolutely! If you are using essential oils it even has a longer shelf life :)) and you don't need to let it infuse of course but can use it right away! I would either just mix them with alcohol or witch hazel or with a bit of water (only make a small batch so it doesn't spoil)
And yes, dried herbs work great!
@@Thewitchescookery good deal, thank you!
Can you show how to cleanse jars and bottles for oils and washes.
I usually just steralize them: boil them in a pot with hot water for 10 minutes and then let them air dry until all the moist is out :) that way your washes and oils don't spoil. I don't do anything extra really ☺️
@@Thewitchescookery TY for your help.
How are you so energetic at this stage of pregnancy?! I was a complete slug the entire 8 months!
I am really not hahah most of the day I am dragging my Elefant body from the sofa to the bed to the floor and back 😅
Well, that's what I call a jumpscare... 😅
Heheh 😈
