Witch Crafts

Mojo Bag

This is a bag that contains magical items and can be used for protection, luck, absorption of negative energies, love magic, and anything else you can think of. All you need to do is have a small bag that can be sealed and the items you wish to place in them. It is carried on your person either in a pocket or around the neck. An example would be a bag that you place a piece of quarts and crushed up herbs such as yarrow, mugwort, eyebright, sage, and mother wort. This will increase your spiritual awareness and help to open up your upper chakras.

Witch Bottle

Same type of thing as a mojo bag but this is made to stay in one place like your home or car. Sometimes they are even buried on your property or placed in the walls of the house. All must contain at least 1/3 oatmeal and salt. Again use you imagination to find out what you need to put in yours. An example would be a wine bottle that you place your 1/3 oatmeal and sea salt along with crushed up herbs like yarrow, lavender, sage, mother wort, wormwood, rue, rosemary, cinnamon, rose buds, and lemon balm. You can also add in stones and other objects like money, luck charms, and personal items.

Dream Catcher

This can be woven by you or a bought one. Add what ever you wish to it from ribbons, charms, and stones, to personal items. This is meant to catch negative energy in dream form as well as just ill thoughts placed toward you. Hang it in your house where ever you feel the negative vibes are coming from or hang it out side if you wish.

Candles

Dress them up for a pretty but useful spell. Anoint it with the oil you need place it in a warm area (the sun work well) so the wax gets soft and push charms, herbs, stones, or personal items into the sides.

Wreathes

These can be made by you or bought and added to. Place what ever you wish on them for you purpose. Add ribbon, flowers, herbs, stones, charms, and oils for a pleasing aroma. Hang on a door or the wall, you can ever hang them from the ceiling if you wish.

Wind Chimes

Again you can make them yourself or dress up a bought one. You can make them out of anything that makes sound when they clank together. Add herbs, charms, ribbon, stones, and personal items.

An example is old silverware and a small metal plate or bowl. Hang the silver from the plate with chain. You will need a drill to make small holes in the plate and silverware. Add some stones with a hot glue gun. This one can be used to let you know when animals are in you garden eating your plants.

Brooms

Can be one you have made or bought. Add ribbon, herbs, stones, charms, or personal items. Place by the front door or hung on the wall above the door for protection.

Wands

The best one is made by you. Take a stick that was already on the ground or cut one from a tree after asking first. Add a stone or crystal to the end and add charms, ribbon, or personal items. You can even carve symbols into the sides of the wood.

Witch Ladder

This is a type of knot magic. First you must bead three pieces of cord together and then add knots to it working from the top down. You can add things to the knots as you tie them such as herbs, stones on string, ribbon and personal items. Each knot you tie is for a different purpose. You may add as many knots as you like but try to keep it a magical number such as 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 12, 13, 15, 18 21 and so on. Hang in a place that most people will not see it like a closet. An example would be for protection use three pieces of black cord and then add yarrow, sage, and lavender each in one knot. As you tie the first think of protection of your self and add the yarrow. The next knot think of cleansing negative energy from you life and add the sage. The next think of calming of the soul and add the lavender. The next knot think of you protecting yourself with a clear mind and add a piece of quarts. And the last knot think of yourself being protected by your magic and add some of your hair.
