ode

Perform this banishing spell with caution and a clear intention to release and remove the negative influence of the person you need out of your life. Remember to focus on your own well-being and safety throughout the process.

Ingredients:

Black candle

Piece of paper

Pen

Salt

Protective herbs (such as sage or rosemary)

Cauldron or fire-safe dish

Instructions:

Begin by creating a sacred space for your ritual. Light the protective herbs and allow the smoke to cleanse and purify the area.

Sit in quiet meditation and center yourself. Focus on your intention to release and remove the negative influence of the person from your life.

Take the piece of paper and write the name of the person you wish to banish. Be specific and clear about your intention.

Light the black candle and place it in front of you. Hold the piece of paper in your hands and visualize the person's energy being absorbed into it.

Repeat the following incantation aloud or in your mind: "By the power of fire and will, I banish [Name] from my life, I will. Negative influence, be gone from me, As I will it, so mote it be." (this can be changed to whatever fits your practice! feel free to switch up the wording to your desire and let the magic happen!)

When you feel ready, ignite the piece of paper with the flame of the black candle and place it in the cauldron or fire-safe dish.

As the paper burns, visualize the person's energy dissipating and leaving your life for good. Feel a sense of release and liberation wash over you.

Sprinkle salt over the ashes to further neutralize and banish any lingering negativity.

Allow the candle to burn down completely as a symbol of the banishing process coming to fruition.

Thank the elements, spirits, or deities that you called upon for their assistance and support.

Dispose of the ashes and remnants of the spell in a respectful manner, such as burying them in the earth or scattering them to the wind.

Back when I was a struggling student, I had to resort to magical efforts to keep myself afloat and feel supported. Thus, this 'I Am Smart & Capable" affirmation spell came to be!

Materials

spell jar

black salt

eggshells

rosemary

red agate

small piece of paper + writing utensil

yellow candle

Instructions

Prep your workspace how you typically would. Cleanse, meditate, cast a circle; whatever you need to do!

Light your yellow candle, close your eyes, and focus on your affirmations: I am smart. I am capable. I am intelligent. Do this for however you feel you need to.

Cleanse your jar with the method of your choosing - I like to use incense.

Layer the bottom of your jar with black salt, for protection.

Next, add in your eggshells for additional protection and security.

Next, add rosemary - for intelligence and wisdom.

Add in a small red agate stone, or red agate chips. You may also use a large piece of agate to charge your jar, if you wish.

Write on your piece of paper your affirmation: I am smart and capable. Roll up your paper and place it in the jar.

Close up/cork your spell jar, and drip a small amount of wax onto the lid/seal. Careful! Don't forget: this is hot wax you're messing with here!

Allow the candle to burn completely, or snuff it out as needed.

This is not okay.

These gods do not belong to Disney. They do not belong to Marvel. They belong to themselves and themselves alone, along with all those who worship them as the deities they are.

Thor, Loki, Odin, etc., these gods were not thought up by anyone at Disney or Marvel.

Stan Lee knew how sacred these gods are to those who follow many different Pagan traditions, how sacred they are to Scandinavian cultures to whom they are so important.

My best friend follows the Norse gods. She will be so bloody offended when she finds out about this. These are her gods, this is her religion. These are the deities she worships, the gods she prays to, the traditions she follows. She enjoys the Marvel portrayals of these characters, but they are separate from the gods she believes in.

Disney is stepping on her religion in an effort to gain more and more money.

Stan Lee did not trademark these names. He understood their importance and their sacred meaning. He was respectful enough not to do this.

These names are not the intellectual property of anyone. Neither the original names in runes nor the anglicised names that are used in Marvel's works.

They were around well before us (a whole ass millennium before us), and they will be around well after the greedy bastards who have decided to trademark religious symbols are dust.

It should be common sense and common courtesy not to trademark the names of religious figures, which all of these gods and goddesses are, even if you do not believe in them.

mod is not christian but you would never see me trademark jesus ffs it crosses a Line

If you agree, please sign and share the petition. If you can, please chip in to get this petition everywhere it can possibly go.

It is f**king disgusting that Disney is doing this.

It needs to stop.

Oh, and one more thing.

FUCK DISNEY.

i want to throw up ive included a bunch of tags trying to get the norse pagans attention bc im sure they'll want in on this if u have an in with the norse paganism community on tumblr pls do tag everyone u can

Simple Money Magics

Bonjour bonjour! Henlo henlo! Above is an example set up of the below money magic method - previously posted sans any explanation of what was done. This tends to unfold very literally so do with that what ye will.

Components:

Piece of paper

2 bowls/cups of water filled to the brim

Dressed candle annointed with consecrated oil

Herbal blend & consecrated oil - can be specifically for money or for speed, growth, etc.

A dish that set up can be put on

Procedure:

Dress and anoint the candle

Dip pinky in oil, draw a spiral on the dish's center moving from the outside in

(Optional) Put your last coin/dollar or otherwise valuable coin/dollar on the very center

Set the two bowls/cups of water down so the edges touch the dish, should align with the N/S pole (use a compass if necessary)

Take your piece of paper and write your specific end time frame and explicit monetary goal over and over again on it, covering completely. Fumigate. Fold it 16 times (or until you cannot anymore), and place at the heart of the dish.

Place candle on top of the paper. Light the candle. Sprinkle herbal blend all around the candle, covering the spiral and entirety of the base of the dish. Add 4 drops of oil.

Light incense. Call spirits or offer prayers, whichever depending on who/what you decide to call upon. Lips closed, hum/speak your exact written words to the North and South water bowls/cups. Lips not touching, speak your exact written words to the flame.

Decide on how you will feed the spell - prayers/psalms/incantations/incense/spirits/etc. - how frequently, and then do that until you feel it is done.

Something beautiful will happen to you this week. 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋

Lemon Syrup

Lemons- happiness, vitality, friendship, rejuvenation, clarity, cleansing, healing, protection, solar energy.

Sugar- sweetness in life, happiness, attraction.

You'll need enough lemons to make 1/2 cup of squeezed lemon juice. For me, that was 3 lemons.

Before juicing them, separate the zest (the bright yellow part of the peel, not the white pith underneath, which will make your syrup bitter).

Then juice the lemons, and add to a pot with 3/4 to 1 cup of white sugar.

Let it boil, and once it does, reduce the boil to a simmer for 10 minutes. If you think the syrup is not thick enough, add more sugar.

Add the zest and turn off the heat entirely. Once it has cooled, strain it to remove all the zest and any pulp. Don't leave the zest in the syrup, even if it looks aesthetically appealing, because it'll turn bitter.

Lemurian seed crystals are an anomaly. They’re found buried in the ground, not attached to any other rock, and they’re usually laying flat. If you know anything about geology, your only explanation would be that they were placed there. With no other quartz around, it’s interesting that these crystals are found randomly in certain parts of the world. That is why they are called “seed” crystals. These crystals are thought to be placed intentionally by the ancient lemurian people who disappeared thousands of years ago. They were supposedly very advanced spiritually and technologically. The rumor is that these crystals have information stored in them via lines or “barcodes” for future humanity to meditate with them and gain knowledge on how to be more spiritually and technologically advanced. It’s easy to find crystals with etch marks, but I will show you what a real lemurian seed crystal looks like.

1. They have etched striations (barcodes) on all side facets.

2. Each facet should be filled or nearly filled with barcodes.

3. They may have a frosted look (or a slight glowy look)

4. You should be able to feel most of the lines with your fingers, like grooves.

5. The crystal points look noticeably different placed next to regular clear Quartz. The “bar codes” found on some quartz are due to the cut made by lasers, saws, and some growth patterns. You’ll understand the difference when you study the pictures below.

6. Lemurians are very clear inside, any milkyness is just the surface texture.

7. Many (but not all) crystals taper towards the tip and have small faces. This is a Laser Wand formation.

8. Lemurian Seed Crystal Clusters are very rare, expect very high prices for the real thing. You cannot get them for a few dollars.

9. Sellers are most likely not trying to dupe you. They most likely are fooled by the crystal supplier that told them they have genuine lemurian crystals. If you sell crystals, make sure you are not being lied to when purchasing rare crystals. Tektite, such as moldavite or Libyan desert glass are usually upwards of 80-300 dollars for a small piece. I’ll do a separate post on moldavite since it’s so hard to find a genuine one. Real lemurian crystals are never under 30 dollars. If you want one that is one inch high, you may pay around 40. If you want one that is around 6-7 inches long, you’ll be paying between 90-300 based on the thickness and quality.

REAL:

FAKE:

Note: when someone says they’re selling pink Lemurian seed quartz, they’re probably not. Unless you’re paying a very high price, it’s almost always fake. Pink (which is more peach or brass colored) is incredibly rare.

Just a little addendum: Mugwort can be dangerous due to mildly psychoactive properties in the herb. Use with caution and avail yourself of the following list of free-use alternatives:

Basil (any kind, noting that Sweet Basil smells the best)

Sage (any type, but keep in mind that White Sage is becoming endangered)

Rosemary

Peppermint

Lavender

Cedar Tips or Shavings
