Mushroom Witchcraft: Using Mushrooms in Spellcraft
Mushroom Witchcraft: Using Mushrooms in Spellcraft, covers mushroom spell jar ingredients and mushroom correspondences for witchcraft by The Green Hearth Witch! Mushrooms are a community and communication system of decomposers that can assist with a myriad of problems, including the kind that can only be solved using magic.
When I think of mushrooms, I think of fairy rings! Most people do. We eat them in our food, we use them for grounding rituals, and we use mushrooms as a Hekate Mushroom Key! By we, I mean witches.
Mushrooms are magical and not just for the hallucinogenic properties some mushrooms carry. Mushrooms are associated with the earth element. This is the earthy, grounded, steadfast energy we have come to know as Mother Nature.
It is said that if you come across a mushroom, fairies must be nearby! I’ve never encountered a fairy ring, but I have encountered fungi communities and the fae folk who live amongst the trees and leaves.
In witchcraft, mushrooms have both medicinal and magical purposes! They can be used for health and wellness spells, especially. In addition to that, they can be crafted for weight loss spells.
As decomposers, they decompose the problem, reducing it to nothing! For fat loss, they decompose and make the weight fall right off of you. Mushrooms are potent, powerful, and in my opinion, extremely underrated!
When I think of green witchcraft, I think of plants, trees, mushrooms, gemstones, and animal life. I think of seasons, weather, and holidays. None of this would be complete without the magic of mushrooms.
Fungi communities are most prevalent in the late summer and autumn seasons when many places experience their monsoon season. Here, in Florida, where I live, mushrooms can be found year-round due to the wet, humid conditions.
What’s cool and interesting about the mushroom season is that within a day or two, an entire community can be brought down. Nature is always moving in cycles and fungi communities are no exception to that. The wonder of mushrooms is that they are here one day and gone the next!
Mushroom Witchcraft: Using Mushrooms in Spellcraft
Let’s talk about how to use the magic of mushrooms in spellcraft, shall we? As a witchcraft practitioner, mushrooms can boost your spellwork on many different levels.
First and foremost, if you would like to work with the fae, then mushrooms might be your cup of tea. They are associated with fairy rings, which are magical, mystical, and celebratory. If fae magic is something that catches your eye, then incorporating mushrooms into your magic only makes sense.
Secondly, are you into left-hand witchcraft? Do you enjoy diminishing problems and banishing things? Then, working with poisonous mushrooms might be a good fit for you! You might be a curse-positive witch and that’s perfectly okay.
Third, mushrooms can be used to make keys! What do keys do? They open and unlock doors, gates, and pathways. Mushrooms are magical and can be dried out and preserved to make a Hekate Mushroom Key!
Fourth, mushrooms can be used as a spell ingredient in any spell or natural remedy you like. A long-stemmed mushroom can even be used as a DIY Green Kitchen Witch Wand when cooking plant-based meals!
Fifth, mushrooms can be used in plant-based meals or as the meal itself. Make stuffed mushrooms, and portabella mushroom pizzas, and add mushrooms to your magical salads. Mushrooms can be used by the kitchen witch!
Sixth, mushrooms can be used for grounding rituals! Holding a mushroom in your hand (be sure it is non-poisonous and safe!) can ground your energy after performing any kind of magical spell or ritual.
Last, mushrooms can be used as decomposers to eliminate health problems and fat loss. If you’d like to create a Mushroom Decomposer Wellness Spell Jar or a Mushroom Decomposer Weight Loss Spell Jar, keep reading! You’ll find information on how to put these mushroom decomposer jars together using magic.
Mushrooms and Fae Magic
If you find yourself being drawn to the fairy realm, then working with mushrooms might be beneficial for you. Fairies are not only attracted to mushrooms but they can often be found on or near mushrooms. Hence, fairy rings!
Mushrooms are said to be the dining tables of fairies and mushrooms are notably portals to the fairy realm. Therefore, you are more likely to see a fairy or feel its presence when spending time mushroom foraging and hunting.
In addition, mushrooms are associated with good luck and are meant to indicate there’s an underground fairy village nearby! To work with mushrooms opens the portal of communication to the nature spirits.
Left-Handed Witchcraft and the Poisonous Mushroom Path
The left-handed path in witchcraft is often known as malicious black magic. However, the left-handed path can be benevolent as well. To me, it simply means you are not afraid of your darkness and the shadow self.
We all have a dark side. With the left-hand path in witchcraft, it means you embrace the darkness, as well as the light. You might consider yourself a wicked witch, as you walk the path of poisonous plants and mushrooms.
Signs You Might Walk the Left-Hand Path in Witchcraft
You are ready to explore the poisonous path of plants and mushrooms
You are curse-positive, which means you consider curses and hexes a necessary part of your witchcraft practice.
You embrace your shadow self and do a lot of shadow work
You are drawn toward the baneful moon phase
You might be into graveyard witchcraft
You work with spiders, scorpions, and other dark, scary, and poisonous creatures in your animal witchcraft practice.
You might work with dark goddesses and gods of the underworld (chthonic underworld deities)
Working with poisonous mushrooms is dangerous! These kinds of mushrooms hold the power to heal and kill equally. If you walk the left-hand path, you might find your curiosity piqued when it comes to dangerous things.
Make a Goddess Hekate Mushroom Key
If you’d like to incorporate mushrooms into your botanical studies, you might like to make a Hekate Mushroom Key! Mushrooms are a favorite of Hekate and she’s a dark goddess of the left-hand path. Hekate is the queen of the hedge that separates our world from the Other Side.
What are keys used for? Keys are created to open doors, gates, and pathways. Think about what you’d like to unlock in your life and put intention into the mushroom of your choosing to unlock the door.
Doors to Unlock with Hekate’s Key
The door to business success
The pathway to love
The gate can be opened to the hedge garden (with plants, herbs, mushrooms, etc. you never even dreamed of!)
The door to money and riches
The key to knowledge
The understanding of wisdom
Mushrooms as a Spell Ingredient
Mushrooms can be used as a spell ingredient! I often use raw and dried mushrooms in my spells. Different kinds of mushrooms hold different kinds of magical and medicinal properties.
Mushrooms can be used for divination, psychic abilities, hedge riding to different realms, prophetic dreams, working with nature spirits, and fostering growth and creativity. The mushroom spirit can also be used in spells for community, and communication, and to act as a ward of protection for court cases.
The mushroom spirit is highly connected to community, celebration, the earth element, and outdoor dining! If you wish to work with the spirit of mushrooms, you might like to spend time outdoors eating, whether it be a picnic or an outdoor dining table. Be sure to include mushrooms in your meal!
I find mushrooms to be especially potent when worked into spell jars and mushroom terrariums, as well as mushroom terrarium jewelry! If you are creating a decomposing mushroom spell, which we’ll get into in a moment, you’ll want to use repurposed bottles that can be disposed of in a landfill.
In addition, mushroom magic can be used in green kitchen witchery! You can use mushrooms in kitchen witchcraft plant-based recipes. You simply have to put your intention into the mushrooms as you add them to the dish.
As you cut up mushrooms, you can put your intention into your mushroom witchcraft practice! Meal prep is a great way to put your intention into the food you are preparing to eat. Mushrooms are no exception to that!
Using Mushrooms in Kitchen Witchcraft
Mushrooms can be tossed into salads for good luck!
Portabella mushroom pizzas can be baked to create household blessings at the table
You can make homemade cream of mushroom soup for comfort and divine assistance from your favorite deity
Spinach and mushroom pasta with olive oil sauce can be used to strengthen a bond in a relationship
Stuffed mushrooms can be used for money magic, abundance, and riches due to overflowing
Easy Mushroom Grounding Ritual
For a quick grounding ritual, you’ll want to hold a mushroom in the palm of your hands or hold it with both hands to increase the power behind it. Another thing you can do is take a walk in the forest and pick a mushroom. Be sure to thank the mushroom spirit!
Carry the mushroom with you throughout the rest of your walk and let it ground your energy. Place the mushroom in your pocket, in a container, or hold it in your hand. Please be safe! Know your mushrooms. Know the lay of your local land spirits.
If you’d like to keep a mushroom at home, you can let the mushroom dry out and keep it someplace where you can see it. Whenever you do spellwork or your energy becomes out of sorts, hold the mushroom on your lap or near your person. You should feel energized and recalibrated in no time!
Mushroom Decomposer Health Spell Jar
If there is a health problem you’d like to eliminate, creating a mushroom decomposer health spell jar can help! You can do this to eliminate a specific health problem or any general health problems you may be having.
If you have a chronic disease or an ongoing issue, the mushroom decomposer spell jar won’t miraculously heal your problem, but it can alleviate the signs and symptoms of the problem, and bring it to light for healing.
I find this spell works best for general health problems overall and small but specific issues you may be having. Please be sure to include a visit to the doctor in addition to your health spell jar! Magic can’t heal and solve all of your physical ailments.
Take a walk in the forest and choose small decomposers that can fit in a small jar or container. Be sure to do this safely with a mushroom guide or app. I would only suggest working with poisonous mushrooms if you are experienced and have taken the proper safety precautions!
Next, put your intention into your fungi decomposers. You can do this on your forest walk or when you get home and start your spell jar. You intend to eliminate a health problem. What is your ailment?
Add healing herbs and crystals to the bottom of your jar first. For an immune system boost, I use both garlic and onion in my health spell jar. I also add green jasper crystals for healing, a golden pothos plant for hearty health, and eucalyptus for healing health.
Next, add the mushroom decomposers to the spell jar. This is the most critical step in the process. Put your intention into it! Be sure to add a taglock (blood, saliva, nails, hair, etc). Close the lid on the jar and seal it with wax or anything that seems fitting!
Do this spell under the baneful moon for the best results!
Mushroom Decomposer Weight Loss Spell
This spell is great for any kind of weight loss! If you are looking to drop a few pounds or go down a few dress sizes, this is the spell for you. This spell is fast-acting and is best done under the baneful moon!
Take a walk in the forest and choose small decomposers that can fit in a small jar or container. Be sure to do this safely with a mushroom guide or app. I would only suggest working with poisonous mushrooms if you are experienced and have taken the proper safety precautions!
Next, put your intention into your fungi decomposers. You can do this on your forest walk or when you get home and start your spell jar. You intend to eliminate weight and fat. How much weight would you like to use?
Add weight-loss herbs and crystals at the bottom of your jar first. For speed and power, add a ginger root or ground ginger powder to your jar. For confidence, add rose petals, as they create a passion for losing weight and looking good. I also add lemon pepper for cleansing, healing, sun magic, and fast delivery! Add citrine crystals for weight loss and healing magic.
Next, add the mushroom decomposers to the spell jar. This is the most critical step in the process. Put your intention into it! Be sure to add a taglock (blood, saliva, nails, hair, etc). Close the lid on the jar and seal it with wax or anything that seems fitting! For weight loss, you might like to squeeze a lemon over the cork lid and push it in.
Do this spell under the baneful moon for the best results!
As you can see, crafting with magical mushrooms can create the most potent spells! Toadstools can open portals to the fairy realm and the hedge of botanicals that wait beyond the hedge, ready for the picking and plucking. Thanks for reading, friends! xoxo
