Landlocked Tips

I am a landlocked Sea Witch so this chapter will be tips for others that are landlocked.

Tip number one: You can make y'all own sea water. Ground y'all self by listening to ocean sounds and feeling the power of the sea coarse through you. Next, pour lukewarm spring water into an airtight glass jar. Than, add sea salt and mix until it has dissolved. Hold the jar against y'all chest close y'all eyes and say " Amphitrite, please bless this water with your love, beauty, strength and nurturing power as I am thankful for it." Now visualize the ocean and feel the energy of it in the jar once strong it's ready to use.

Tip number two: Connect to inland waters and feel it's energy. This can be Lakes, Rivers, Streams, Ponds.

Tip number three: Do rituals in the shower, bath or hot tub/pool. You can make ocean themed bath bombs with correspondence you desire to achieve. Relaxing in just plain sea salt bath is also an option. I relax in sea salt and chamomile a lot sometimes I add bubble bath but not a lot. It's both calming and helps my eczema. Before getting in you can make an altar around the bath which can involve crystals, shells, driftwood, hag stones to name a few. Make sure you only use non-toxic herbs, oils and crystals in the bath. Body scrubs made with non-toxic herbs, salts, sugars, crystals can also be made. Make sure to meditate and connect with Amphitrite while in the water. Speak to her, visualize her and feel her power.

Tip number four: Storm water can be used it's pretty much ocean water that has traveled to you.

Tip number five: Use seashells if you aren't able to get them yourself you can get them off Etsy but cleanse them before use.
