How to clean a magic brush

I have hy version of the brush and after 3 uses it's now clogged with hair. I'm not too sure on the best way to get out all of the hair and wondered if any of you have had the same struggle and what you did

I have a bradawl but a small screwdriver or similar will do the job. Just poke in the sides underneath the hair all along the length and you get a nicely satisfying mat of hair lifting out.

Wears headscarf aggressively

I either tap it on the concrete floor (bristle side down) which brings the hair to the tips & you can just scrape it off
Or wash a horse (or bucket, or boots etc) with it which seems to clump the hair together and then it taps out really easily

Banging the tip of one end on wood (as bouncily as possible) brings the hair out well. As does a toothpick

Tap it sharply on a hard surface bristle side down (concrete floor or wall . Whatever happens to be handy!!) . The hair comes to the ends of the bristles and can be removed with a plastic curry comb. Give it a wash now and then . Love my magic brushes .

As others have said, easiest way is to give it a good tap on a hard surface with the bristle side down.

Usually scrape it with a hoof pick and give it a brush with the brush side of the hoof pick too. Wash it with a bit of hand soap every so often. They dry quickly.

Either hold one end and tap the other on the top of the door, or use a hairbrush type brush in the same fashion I would use a metal currycomb on a body brush.

whack it and whack it and whack it, then a hoof pick. Roma do a miracle brush which is the same thing but twice the size-was so happy when I found it

This although why people think they’re so amazing I’m not sure. I’ve had one since the mid 80’s and then I knew it as a water brush, great for scrubbing when bathing, but a pita to clean the hairs from.

Yet, my affinity for nature does not end there. As the moon radiates its ethereal glow upon the Earth, my senses awaken, and I find solace in moon magic. The lunar cycles become my guide, tapping into the ebb and flow of energy that courses through the cosmos. During the full moon, I harness its intense energy to manifest my desires, while the new moon provides a time for introspection and setting intentions for the future. But it is not solely these aspects of witchcraft that define me. I am also drawn to the realm of divination – the art of tapping into the unseen forces that guide our lives. Tarot cards, crystal balls, and pendulums become my tools, helping me to gain insight and guidance when faced with life's uncertainties. The intricate patterns and symbolism within these mediums fascinate me and provide a gateway into the hidden realms of the universe. There are also times when the fiery passion within me ignites, and I am drawn to the practices of kitchen witchery. Cooking and baking become a form of enchantment as I infuse my culinary creations with love, intention, and magical ingredients. With each stir of the cauldron, I weave spells of nourishment and healing, transforming ordinary meals into extraordinary experiences. In my heart, I carry a deep reverence for my ancestors and the rich tapestry of ancestral traditions that have shaped who I am today. Their wisdom and guidance permeate my practice, as I honor their spirits through rituals, offerings, and remembrance. I find strength in the ancient rituals and customs passed down from generation to generation, forging a connection to my roots and heritage. In truth, I am a multifaceted witch - a blend of nature, divination, culinary magic, and ancestral veneration. My path is not restricted to one label or tradition but encompasses a combination of practices and beliefs that resonate deep within my soul. I am a reflection of the myriad of influences that have shaped me, and my magical journey is a constant exploration of self-discovery and growth. So, when asked, "What kind of witch am I?" I can confidently reply, "I am a unique fusion of nature, divination, kitchen witchery, and ancestral reverence. My magic is a reflection of my essence, ever evolving and embracing the enchantments that resonate with my spirit.".

Reviews for "Witchcraft and Shadow Work: Embracing My Darker Side"

1. Jessica - 2 stars

As a fan of witchcraft and all things magical, I was really excited to read "What Kind of Witch Am I." However, I was quite disappointed with the book. I felt like the content was too basic and lacked depth. The author touched on different types of witches, but never really went into detail about each one. Additionally, the writing style was very dry and boring, making it difficult for me to stay engaged. Overall, I found the book to be underwhelming and not worth the investment.

2. Mark - 1 star

I found "What Kind of Witch Am I" to be extremely misleading. The title led me to believe that the book would help me discover my own witch persona and guide me in my journey. However, all I found were generic descriptions of different types of witches, which I could have easily found on the internet. There was no practical advice or guidance whatsoever. The book felt like a wasted opportunity and left me feeling frustrated and unfulfilled.

3. Emily - 2 stars

I have always been fascinated by witchcraft, so I was excited to dive into "What Kind of Witch Am I." Unfortunately, the book did not live up to my expectations. While the author did provide a basic overview of different types of witches, I felt like it lacked depth and substance. I was hoping for more practical advice and guidance on how to explore my own path as a witch, but instead, I found myself reading repetitive information that I already knew. Overall, I found the book to be disappointing and would not recommend it to others looking to explore witchcraft.
