A couple people asked me to post the spell for the spell jar I made the other day! This is the first spell I’ve posted, so let me know if you need clarification with anything. I’m happy to answer any questions 💖

This spell jar is intended to create a stronger connection with your loved one and protect the connection from weakening.

Note: Any of these ingredients can be substituted, omitted, or things can be added for a more specific intent.

What you’ll need:

A cute jar! *Himalayan Pink Salt - friendship, love and purification *Rose Petals - healing, love and protection *Peppermint Leaves - love, lust and protection (use tea if you don’t have mint leaves on you!) I also used peppermint flowers because they’re so pretty 😊 *Coltsfoot - love and peace *Rose Quartz - friendship, happiness and love *Amethyst - peace and protection *Apple seeds - love, protection and purification. (And fertility if that’s what you’re going for) *Lavender - happiness, love, peace, protection and purification *Jasmine - love Incense - I used strawberry for love (and it smells really good!) but you can use jasmine, rose, or lavender if you’d like! String (pink if you have it!) White and pink candles A funnel for the herbs if you need it!

* - going into the jar

So first I layered all of the ingredients in the order they are listed in the jar. Focus on the correspondence you feel in each item as you place them into the jar. Then, I sealed the jar with white and pink wax. Practice fire safety when doing this, please! And don’t get wax in your carpet like I did.

Next comes the string - it’s a perfect opportunity to incorporate knot magick if you practice that! Visualize the connection between you and your lover growing tighter and stronger as you pull the knot closed. Giving it a few extra tugs doesn’t hurt!

Finally, I passed the spell jar through my incense and sung a love song. If you’re not comfortable singing, try saying a poem out loud that reminds you of your beloved!

The Basics

What is a cursed object?

A cursed object is an object or item that has been enchanted to hold a curse to it. It is similar to the movies where a cursed object may cause bad luck or torment someone. Just like any enchanted object, it is linked to a spell but it instead puts out negative energy.

What objects can be cursed?

Any object or item can be cursed, just like how any object or item can be enchanted. Whether you are cursing jewelry, a crystal, an image, your grimoire, or anything else it doesn’t matter.

Why would one want to curse something?

A witch may wish to curse something for various reasons, just like there are many reasons people put curses on others.

An object may be cursed to prevent others from taking it or if someone does it will bring them misfortune or misery until the object is returned to the owner. Some witches curse their grimoires or other magical books to keep others from snooping in them or stealing their personal secrets, especially if that witch finds their practice very personal and wish not to share it with others. An object may also be cursed if it belongs to another that the witch feels deserves to be punished.

How to Curse an Object

Cleansing:

Before you start your cursing process you need to do cleansing. Cleanse the space you will be working in, cleanse yourself, and cleanse the object you are cursing. You don’t want any extra or residual energy hanging about and affecting your curse.

I often will also set up some self protection, though nothing ever too big. Usually I just put a bowl of salt near me and a few protective crystals. You can put up wards as well if you desire and any other barriers if you feel it is needed.

Preparation:

Once you and your area is cleansed, if needed you should ground and center yourself. Cursing can take a lot of energy so drinking some energizing tea like black teas can help as well as drinking water and eating beforehand.

Get your object ready and then gather your other ingredients.

If you need some help determining what to use in a curse here are some posts of curse correspondences:

Tips for Cursing and Hexing*

Curse Correspondences*

Cursing (ask)

Potential Curse Ingredients*

Cursing:

Once you have gathered your ingredients to cause the effects you desire to whoever ends up with this object surrounded or cover the object with the ingredients, you are going to use their energies to curse your item.

This is when you use your visualization skills, you may visualize the energies physically leaving the ingredients and entering that of the item of you are cursing. You may also use chanting if you desire.

Writing down your intent for the curse and either reciting it outloud or in your head is recommended. It would also be a good idea to state in your curse that this curse only affects those who take this object from you and that it is a curse that is to activate once the item leaves your possession.

It is good to make sure in your written/spoken words of the curse to state that once the item returns to your possession the curse will subside or end. Or to have a small item ‘anchored’ to the curse such as a notecard with words on it “I break the curse” or a sigil, a dried flower or herb, etc that once you do wish to break the curse on the object and you do not have it in your possession any longer you may burn or destroy this “anchor”.

If your item or object has already been taken or stolen and you wish to curse it you can. Perform your curse in the location you normally keep the missing object for it should still have that object’s energy about and if you can have something related to the object about such as wires that were once connected to it, its case/box/bag, a picture or image of it, something that was kept close to it, its instruction manual, etc. Curse the object using these items to connect you to it.

Aftercare:

Once you have finished cursing the object tuck your anchor somewhere safe and easily available for if at any point you need to immediately break the curse. Then re-cleanse yourself and your room but do not cleanse the object you just cursed (it would ruin all of your hard work). Then take a nice well earned rest, cursing can be very exhausting.

Removing a Curse from A Cursed Object

If you wish to remove the curse from your object you may then destroy the “anchor” previously mentioned. Another way, if the item is in your possession, is to do a nice good cleansing of it and while cleansing it stating very clearly that you now end the curse on the object.

Some cleansing methods to remove a curse from an object are: running it through incense or sage smoke, submerging in moon water, washing with soap, resting it in or near salt, moonlight cleansing, sunlight cleansing, wind cleansing, rain cleansing, crystal cleansing, chanting, music and sounds, and cleansing herbs.

It is best to let it rest to cleanse for a few days if you are using a technique such as moonlight cleansing, salt cleansing or herb cleansing.

Once it is well cleansed and the anchor is destroyed it should be curse free.

NOTE: Removing a curse of an object that you did not curse yourself can be much more difficult to do and may take numerous cleansings and banishing spells to remove the curse fully.

Throwin’ the Bones

Of the divinatory techniques with which I am familiar, bones are my personal favorite. Yes, they have that very witchy vibe – but it’s more than that; the bones are honest. They don’t sugar coat, and while they have to be interpreted, once you know how to read them – there’s little room for interpretation. They are very direct and are much better suited to answering yes or no questions than tarot. With a little imaginative methodology, there few questions the bones can’t answer. And even fewer they won’t answer (as tarot cards can be known to do). A few examples of things I think the bones are better at answering than tarot: questions involving time, questions regarding health, sickness and maledictions; they present a broader grasp to any given situation – incorporating things outside of the question presented and how these things relate to the question or the reading, showing the interconnectedness of life – and how these things all relate back.

Our countless cultures have countless methods for collecting and reading the Bones – and I can only rightly attest to my own methodology: one in which the Bones need not necessarily consist solely of bones, but a collection of gathered trinkets and curios, all with their own meaning, their own story and their own energy. My collection consists of: bones (bare and painted), coins, stones, shells, jewelry, twigs, buttons, animal teeth and other squabbles. The only rule I implement is that the item can be easily gathered and (safely) tossed without breakage or injury (save your razor-blades and glass shards for witches’ bottles!).

Collecting the Bones and Bobbles

Most any small bones will do, though its recommended that you use bones that haven’t been cooked, as cooked bones have a tendency to get very brittle – especially in the case of chicken, which is quite common. In my collection I have a number of different animal bones: most are chicken, but I also have some raccoon and possum bones, as well as teeth and claws. I built a “base” of bones, but am continuously adding or replacing as I see fit.

A short list of “Bones” I like to include – most of which serve as my “base” bones:

Self Bone – used for the reader

Other Bone – used to represent another person or the person you are reading

Magic Bone – represents the need for or use of magic

“Evil” Bone – malicious or hateful acts, disadvantageous behavior

Love Bone – represents romantic love

Male Bone – represents male fertility, masculinity, sexuality or a man

Female Bone – represents female fertility, femininity, sexuality or a woman

Health Bone – represents physical or mental health

Wealth Bone – represents financial standing or monetary issues

Family Bone – represents familial connections or a family member

Fate Bone – represents destiny and your lifepath (I use a shell for this: open side up means an event can be altered, destiny is not set in stone; open side down, this path must be walked – prepare in lieu of fighting)

“Key” Bone – (I actually use a small key) which represents the key to any given situation, the remedy or problem at hand and its cause

This list is by no means comprehensive and I have many more bones in my collection with more menial meanings. This is simply a small list of options to be added to and adapted by whosoever casts the bones.

Reading the Bones

There is no right or wrong way to read the bones, there is simply your way and their way. Below I will dictate how it is that I do a general reading – again, this is just an example of one way, take and adapt to fit your own unique style or tradition!

Begin by collecting your bones into your hand. I keep mine in a leather pouch, but don’t like to toss them directly from the bag as it doesn’t allow for much control – i.e. the bones fall out either in a massive, unreadable pile or they fly out in such a scattered way nothing is close enough to read. Throwing them from the hand allows for a rather contained casting, and one that can be read easily. I do not include the Self or Other bone, instead, the Self Bone is placed before the caster and the Other Bones is placed either in front of the person you’re reading for or simply in the middle of the casting area. When reading for yourself, place the Self Bone in the center and discard the Other Bone.

Throw the Bones. This can be done on a square of cloth on which a circle (or any number of complex shapes) has been drawn or simply upon a flat table. If throwing in a circle, discard all bones that fall outside of it. These bones are null for the reading, though they can also be read as “far from the person’s mind/current situation.”

Interpret the Bones. This is done by noting the location and connection of the bones present. For instance, note the Love Bones proximity to the Other Bones and the Male Bone. This could be interpreted as being the male love of the querent – but if the “Evil” bones is introduced, this could symbol ulterior motives or a hostile or explosive relationship. Read based on both their proximity to the Other Bone – the closer, the higher priority the matter is – and their relation to one another. It’s very much like investigating a big puzzle, putting it together piece by piece to form a comprehensive understanding of their life or situation. Also not their relation based on the third dimension: x bone seems to be overlapping y bone – is the x issue eclipsing an underlying problem or truth represented by y? It depends. Only through practice will you find clarity.

Convey the message. I always like to spend a few moments making a variety of “hmm” noises when reading for others – it builds up their anticipation. Or you can throw in the occasional gasp or snarky smirk. Their responses are usually hilarious – even more so when yours are genuine! If you are reading on your own, it may be a good idea to sketch out a general map of the readings as opposed to taking a picture as often bones overlie others, which makes for a rather misleading photo representation. You might also find jotting down notes rewarding, especially in synthesizing a cohesive read.

Once you’ve garnered all the information you can from that particular toss, feel free to specify: take the bone/situation you wish to examine and toss the rest again over it/them, reading the others through that particular lens. I.E. Who is this person mentioned? What are their qualities? What is the nature of this love? What magic is being referenced here? Follow that rabbit hole as far as you wish, building your understanding.

Do not be afraid to adjust your style! Want to narrow down a time frame? Make a sort of timeline with the bones. Wish to determine the source of an ailment? Shape the bones into the form of a body. I find the bones allow for far more creativity and ingenuity than cards. And above all – TRUST YOUR GUT.

The flame is an apt representation the human spirit: it burns brightly and glows with each piece of encouragement. And, similarly, it can be snuffed out in instant. We seldom forget how dependent we are on that overzealous fireball that we call the Sun or that we merely exist because of that piece of cosmic mayhem that was the Big Bang. And now, fire presents itself with yet another purpose: divination.

Pyromancy, in conjunction with ceromancy and capnomancy, can provide incredibly accurate divination readings; however, it can be practiced on its own as well. It’s also an excellent aid in spirit work as the flame’s movements can help beginners interpret responses and information, much like a pendulum or runes.

Tools

Pyromancy is one of those crafts that doesn’t require a heavy investment; in fact, all you need is a candle!

Now, if you’d like, you can utilize incredibly elaborate pillar candles, hand-dipped candles and the like, but simple short dollar-store candles will work just as well for this. I don’t recommend using glass-encased candles unless the glass is clear: you need to be able to analyze the flame with unobscured vision.

Idea: For those of you that are druids, forest/nature witches, or outdoor enthusiasts, you can also interpret controlled fires, such as campfires, on your next excursion. Please do follow applicable laws and be safe.

Interpretations

If the fire splits off into two or more flames, this indicates the presence of others (e.g. spirits, deities or humans) getting involved. If the twin flames rejoin to create a single flame, then there is a reunion with another individual or entity in your future. Continue interpreting the candle’s flame, or supplement with ceromancy or capnomancy, to determine the intentions of the individual.

If the candle does not light, this indicates that the question you wish to ask cannot be answered at this time. Perhaps try again at a later date or ask the question again using different tools, such as:

A candle of a different colour (violet candle versus gold candle)

A candle with a wood wick instead of a fibre wick

A candle that was handmade or hand-poured versus one that was commercial-made

A candle infused with herbs versus a plain candle

A different lighting tool, such as a special lighter or matches

If the candle flame is large or high, it means that there is a lot of power or success heading in your direction. You will encounter little to no resistance in your conquest.

If the candle flame is low, it means that there is discontent or struggle in your future. You will encounter much resistance. Consider casting protection spells or crafting charms to help offset the influence of these forces.

If the flame makes a crackling or popping sound, it indicates that there is a communication issue at present. Perhaps you yourself or someone in your life is speaking ill about another individual or gossiping about them. Perhaps you or a compatriot are failing to communicate issues in a healthy manner and it’s causing unnecessary frustrations and problems. Reflect on the purpose of the candle and your original question to determine which is the case.

Alternatively, if your question regarded another entity or spirit, this could be their way of attempting to communicate with you and establish a connection. Exercise caution, be respectful and listen - you may learn something important.

If the flame flickers, first be certain that a draft is not causing the unusual behaviour. Then, proceed to analyze it with the following:

If the flame pops whilst flickering, then the person will wish to communicate with you and establish a relationship of some kind.  If this is a question regarding deities, spirits or which path you will take and the candle flickers, it means that one of those will become very clear to you in the near future. Perhaps a deity or spirit will reach out; perhaps your true path will present itself to you in an unusual and unexpected way. Keep an eye out for such developments.

If the flame bounces or forms a tall spiral, then the individual involved in your question will be affected greatly by your choices and actions moving forward. If you are attempting to send a message, it is getting through. Additionally, if the flame becomes quite tall, consult overly-fast burning and fire hazard interpretations for a more accurate reading.

If the flame flares up and dies down repeatedly, then the individual in question is subconsciously aware of your plans or actions. They may be responding or providing their opinion on the matter, or perhaps fighting back with their own magical efforts.

If you are burning two or more candles marked for specific individuals and the flame leans or bends away from the other, the person is attracted to the individual and wishes to pursue some form of relationship with them. The candle with the taller flame indicates the dominant individual.

Along those same lines, if one candle’s flame actively bends away from the other candle’s flame or diminishes in its presence, then that individual is emotionally repulsed by the other.

If you attempt to blow out the candle and it does not go out, it means that positive outside forces are at work and they do not want you to extinguish the flame. Allow the spirits, deities or individual(s) to complete their work or request for permission to douse the flame (if necessary).

If the entire top of the candle catches fire, it indicates that great turmoil and complications are coming your way. To determine whether or not you will be successful when facing these obstacles, examine the rest of the candle - the wax and soot (ceromancy) and smoke (capnomancy).

If the candle itself is burning up at an alarming or overly-fast rate, it indicates that you will experience success; however, it will be short-lived. This interpretation is taken from ceromancy and is one of the more common things that those practicing pyromancy experience. For additional interpretation:

If you have many candles lit, each for a particular individual, and one person’s candle is burning faster than the others, then that individual will be most affected by the situation in question. However, the influence and outcome will not produce a permanent change.

If one candle burns out hours or days before the others, the interpretation is up to your discretion. Some individuals would conclude that the outcome in question will be positive but temporary whilst others would conclude that the question needs to be asked again because the candle was faulty.

Regarding the previous outcome: it is entirely up to you to decide if you wish to light a new candle for this question. There are no rules regarding this and it’s best to allow your intuition to guide you through the craft. If that means that you use a pendulum above the new candle flame to ask the question, then go for it. Feel the need to use another method of divination, such as cartomancy or aeromancy to supplement the ask? Do it. Everyone has their own unique method(s) of handling unusual responses in divination, so do what feels right to you.

If the flame is tall and calm and produces no soot, a benevolent entity (e.g. spirit, deity) is present. They are here to offer assistance for the problem or issue at hand.

Similarly, if the flame is tall but aggressively flickering in large strokes, a ‘darker’ entity (e.g. spirit, deity) is present. Do not be alarmed for it, too, wishes to assist you in your quest.

If the candle tips over or the flames flare up into a potential fire hazard, then you are going to be faced with a very negative or dire situation. Perhaps someone close to you will pass away or be involved in a very serious accident. Perhaps you will face a battle or struggle immensely with upcoming life events. Perhaps there is danger in your immediate future. Please note that this outcome is based on what you are currently doing in your life. If you are aware of the action(s) creating this negative influence, and you have the ability to change or stop it, please do so.

If the flame goes out while burning, it can be indicative of one of the following:

If the candle has been burning unusually slowly and has gone out, then it means that the outcome you wish for will manifest; however, it will take time to come to fruition.

The Fates have already determined the events before you. This can also occur as a “final note” after you have read and interpreted other behaviours of the flame.

If your question was about prosperity, financial gain or reflection on a situation then it will be met with a negative outcome.

If your question was regarding a negative action towards another that you had intended to do, then you will be opposed by an entity that is protective of them or perhaps the individual in question. Additionally, they could also be reflecting the question or intended spell back onto the caster.

If the flame has gone out while burning and you are relighting it, do so by channeling your intent or saying a small prayer. You may amplify the influence by utilizing herbs, crystals or other tools.

If the flame goes out a second time, this is a sign that you may need to use a stronger tool. Consider amplifying the question with more applicable candles, corresponding tools (e.g. crystals, herbs) or another divination method. Relight the candle and ask again with stronger and more focused intent.

If the flame goes out a third time, then attempt to mend the wick (potential issue) and ask for the blessing of one of your deities or spirit companions. Supplement the candle with additional tools and ask the question again.

If the flame continues to go out, then you need to stop. Take some time to reflect on your question and intent and revisit this at a later date.

If there are burn marks on the glass or wax, it means that you have a nemesis within your group of friends. Perhaps they are someone who poses as your compatriot but acts differently when you are not present, someone that is inclined to tarnish your reputation or someone that intends to make others turn on you and subsequently leave you. The individual could also be casting dark magic upon you in the form of curses, hexes or jinxes. Be alert and weed them out.

A healthy flame can indicate many different things depending on the colour and vibrancy of the centre.

A blazing red centre indicates that you are nearing the centre of the problem or issue to be addressed.

A dim red centre indicates that you will find yourself in a situation where you will have to confront someone about how their behaviour(s) or choices are influencing your livelihood. It is likely that they are unaware of how they are behaving and the situations resulting from it, so do not be aggressive. Instead, approach them with kindness, patience and understanding. Focus on how their actions make you feel and own those feelings - do not blame them. Ignorance is not a crime but an opportunity for someone to learn and grow.

If the wick of the candle starts building a bulb at its tip, then there is an individual actively working against you and keeping you from succeeding in your endeavours.

A lot of blue in the flame indicates that you have individuals or entities working in your favour. The are protecting you from something - perhaps an unfortunate or unhappy outcome.

To extinguish the flame: Use your thumb and index finger to put out the wick, or use a tool such as a candle snuffer. Magical or spiritual candles are never blown out.

——–

Please exercise caution when incorporating candles and fire into any practice and do not leave open flames unattended - especially near flammable objects or if you have pets. Also, as a safety precaution, keep a glass or jug of water (or fire extinguisher, if you have one, nearby in case of emergency. 

Use common sense, please and do not practice pyromancy (or any type of craft with fire) in areas of drought. Follow local laws regarding campfires and controlled open flames.

Information has been collected by myself over 20 years of practice. The vast majority of it is from my time as a practitioner in Croatia and has been influenced by Croatia, Serbian, Bosnian and Polish folk magic practices and individuals that I have worked with. The interpretations I have listed above are ones that work consistently for me. 

Other interpretations are just as valid and acceptable. Ultimately, pyromancy is simply a practice - you can mold it to your unique Craft and craft interpretations based on what works for you. Results may vary.

Be careful what you wish for because you just might get it. Make sure you have back up plans for “just in case” situations/ predicaments. The example that I’m getting is, you know how people wish for money/ financial stability & they get it But not in a way that they expect?

Like they get into an accident but then they get a huge settlement. Yea, it’s giving that so be mindful of what you’re asking for and make sure you’re clear with your intentions for not only for yourself but for others as well.

I see someone asking/ praying for something and it’s received, this may be confirmation for you. Some things you ask for you will require a sacrifice(s). For example, you want to build long term goals or start a business or even continue with the one you already have, some things may have to be turned away. Distractions for instance, people/ places that you’ve outgrown or could be stunting your growth for success.

Everything comes at a price but the price itself is self rewarding. Want to deepen your intuition or the connection you have with spirit, be prepared for the things that may arise in your path. This is not only a test of strength, independence and discipline but this is a test to see your devotion… your determination. Want to strengthen your intuition? Be prepared to be met with deceit, obstacles/ challenges of the mind.

Are you going to give in easily? Or are you going to fight to follow what’s truly right for you? Meaning, you may come across folks who’ll try to mislead & misguide you.. will you let them? Have you trusted yourself fully to not be easily moved?

Not everyone deserves access to your energy.

Not every person. Not every spirit. Not every wandering thought.

This is your sign to:

• Draw salt lines at your doors and windows

• Cleanse your space with smoke, sound, or sweeping.

• Wear obsidian, onyx, or tourmaline when the world feels heavy.

• Visualize mirrors facing outward — reflect back what is not yours.

• Speak your boundaries like you’re casting a circle: firm, sacred, non-negotiable.

You don’t owe access. You don’t owe explanation.

Your energy is a temple. And it is holy.

Protect it like it holds your magic — because it does.

I wanted to make a wiki about it but I don't have time for it.

The point was to try to encompass every "superpower" I could think of into a magic system.
