Hello! Do you have any informational posts on the weapons/objects of Sailor Moon and how they can be used in worship? If not, would you ever consider writing something on them?
Well, I did do an informational post on The Talismans which can be found in my tags, and the Silence Glaive is mentioned in all of my Sailor Saturn posts. I guess I didn't say how they might be used because I know getting your hands on replicas can be expensive. I still don't have my computer, but here's a quick run down:Crescent Moon stick/Sailor Moon Rods - used as a wand for directing large amounts of energy and specifically for healing rituals. Crystal Star Brooch - wear as a pentacle for protection. All brooches can be used this way or charmed for different uses. I use the Crystal Star the most myself. Transformation Rods/sticks - use the corresponding stick from which Sailor you are working with to guide their energies. Inner Sailor Rods also used as elemental wands (Mars/fire, Mercury/water, Venus/air, Jupiter/earth). Also used in rituals in which you desire to change or transform something about yourself. Venus's Love-Me Chain - multiple uses; most include binding spells as either bind someone from doing harm or bind two people together to try and reconnect love between them (platonic or romantic). Also can be cast around you in the sense of a circle of protective light. Mars's ofuda scrolls - I talk about these in my Sailor Mars post in more detail, but placing these around purify your area from harmful spirits. Mars Arrow - also used to banish negative energies but on a stronger level. I can see this being used in motivational rituals as well (pull yourself back and be thrust forward in motion). Space Sword - can be used as a ritual athame if you like. Directing energies and also calling on other energies, like the talismans call on Sailor Saturn. It's an offensive weapon, so it would be useful in rituals about cutting ties or "blasting" something/one away or causing "turbulence" in their lives. Deep Aqua Mirror - Scrying is the most traditional way to use it, divination with mirrors. Use it to see the truth of a situation (the Mirror is said to always reveal the truth). Can also be used to reflect negative energies or used in meditation to see an inner reflection of yourself. Silence Glaive - you must be careful if you plan on using the Glaive. Please remember that it is a weapon of destruction and is A double edged weapon. Sailor Saturn dies if she uses it to its full potential, so please know your limits. That being said, the Glaive can be used defensively to cast a protective "Silence Wall" around you and offensively to cast banishing spells or different kinds of curses. Garnet Orb/Keystaff - I'm still thinking about this one, but any ritual asking to lock a secret away/lock someone or something away etc would be appropriate. Privacy spells, time related spells? I'll come back to this. I think that's all of the physical weapons from the main team. If I missed one (doing this from my iPod, forgive me ;~;) or you want more input on a specific item, just drop me another ask! It's all I can really do for now, haha. I think I will do a more formal post about this when I get my computer back.
