A little death magic seems appropriate for a rainy spooky season night. Graveyard oil and grave salt from the shop of @acrowandthedead.bsky.social #witchsky #witchmadness #deathmagic #ancestorwork #pagansky #occultsky
Photo of four tea light candles dressed in oil and salt, along with a black bottle of graveyard oil and a black packet of grave salt. These items sit in front of a decorate crackled floral jar with a lit candle glowing inside.
