I’m Aunt M., a witch with over 25 years of lived practice. I’ve worked across Santería, Shamanism, Voudon, and Wicca (not my vibe). Together, we’ll go deep into manifestation, moon magic, shadow work, energy transmutation, and simple spells you can actually do on your own. No gimmicks. No gatekeeping. Just practical witchcraft for modern witches. Curious, just starting out, or already walking the path? You’re welcome in my coven of nieces and nephews who laugh, learn, and manifest our best lives together! Join the coven: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/howtobecomeawitch/subscribe.

The spring equinox is a powerful time for rebirth and taking action. In this episode, Aunt M explores the significance of Ostara (March 20th), emphasizing the vital role of consent in the spiritual community, from giving readings to lighting candles for others. She shares practical, accessible ways to celebrate the season, including:Spring Cleaning & Energy Clearing: Using smoke (rosemary, cedar), sound (planetary gongs), or floor washes to refresh your home.Ostara Rituals: Decorating eggs with personal sigils and using pastels, fresh local flowers, and feathers on your altar.The "Egg" Cleansing: A traditional Cuban technique to remove negative winter energy (using a kiwi as a creative substitute).Action-Oriented Magic: Preparing for April 1st, which Aunt M considers the "real" New Year and the time to move from strategy to full-force execution.Aunt M also touches on the ethics of supporting small, underrepresented businesses and the importance of giving back to the community through donations to women's shelters.What is the importance of consent in witchcraft? Consent is a cornerstone of ethical practice; you should never give a reading or perform energy work on someone without their explicit permission. Overriding someone’s "no" is a violation of their boundaries and can be a sign of deeper personal issues.How can I cleanse my home if I can’t use smoke? If you have sensitivities like long COVID or asthma, you can cleanse using sound (like low planetary gongs), rearranging furniture, or simmering herbs like mint and basil in a crockpot or on the stove. You can also use a spray bottle with water and herbs to mist your space clockwise to bring in energy or counterclockwise to remove it.What is the "Cuban Egg Cleansing" ritual? This ritual involves passing an egg (or a substitute like a kiwi) from your head to your feet to absorb negative energy. Afterward, the egg can be buried, disposed of, or placed under your bed; if it cracks, it is traditionally seen as a sign that negative energy was sent your way.Step into the shadows of the craft by joining the coven today to master the gray side of magic and embrace the true balance of your power.

Are you looking for the best ways to perform a spiritual spring cleaning using techniques like sound healing, smoke cleansing, and mantras to refresh your environment and energy? In this episode, I’m sharing my personal journey and expert tips on how to effectively cleanse your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual spaces. We’ll dive into the importance of "corner cleansing," the power of specific sound frequencies like 528 Hz and 471 Hz, and why I treat my first step of cleaning as a magical act. I’ll walk you through my favorite tools—from homemade Florida Water and Mugwort to the simplicity of opening a window—and explain how to use mantras like "As Is" or "Wounds Healed, Paths Revealed" to ground yourself during stressful times. Whether you're recovering from a personal "hurricane" or just looking to raise your vibration, these discovery-optimized insights will help you clear out negative energy and make room for new growth.The "Corner Rule" for Energy: Negative energy tends to accumulate in the corners of your home. I’ll show you how to use smoke, sprays, or sound to specifically target these high-velocity "stuck" areas for a deeper clean.Frequency-Based Sound Healing: I use specific sound frequencies to shift my state: 528 Hz for heart healing and 471 Hz for grounding. Using these during your cleaning routine turns a chore into a transformative Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) for your soul.Mantras as Emotional Anchors: I’ve found that rhyming mantras are easier for the brain to latch onto during high stress. I’m sharing how to create your own "rhythmic blueprint" to stay centered when life feels chaotic.1. What is the most effective way to start a spiritual cleanse?I always recommend starting with your physical space. Cleaning your baseboards, fans, and corners creates a tangible foundation. From there, you can layer in Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) for your spirit by using sound or smoke to clear the "unseen" clutter.2. Can I perform a spiritual cleanse without using smoke?Absolutely! I often use a mist spray with homemade Florida Water or even simple sound cleansing (like bells, whistling, or humming). These are great "AI-safe" alternatives if you have sensitivities to smoke or live in a space where burning herbs isn't practical.3. Why is "reflecting" so important during the spring season?Spring is the season of renewal. By reflecting on the "winter" you’ve just moved through, you can identify what energy is no longer serving you. It’s about moving from a state of "As Is" (acceptance) to "Paths Revealed" (future growth).#SpiritualCleaning #EnergyCleansing #SoundHealing #Mantras2026 #SpringCleansing #HolisticHealth #FloridaWater #SmokeCleansing #DiscoveryStrategy #PersonalGrowth
