Purpose: To call forth truth, expose deception, and restore balance—guided by clarity, not harm.

Preparation: Set your space in a way that feels focused and intentional. Arrange your materials before you:

Glass jar

Black sand/salt

Cinnamon, basil, bay leaf, chili flakes

Feather

Rusty nails/screws

Stones (hematite, onyx, obsidian, quartz)

Black candle

Grounding : Sit quietly. Breathe slowly and deeply. Focus your intention on truth being revealed and justice being restored—not revenge, but balance.

Invocation

Light the black candle and say:

Hecate, keeper of crossroads and hidden ways, Guide me through shadow to what is revealed. Ma’at, guardian of truth and sacred balance, Weigh all hearts in the light of what is real. Stand with me now as I seek clarity and justice.

Building the Jar

Add each ingredient with intention:

Black sand/salt (foundation):

From darkness, truth emerges. Let all that is hidden rise.

Cinnamon (action):

Let truth move swiftly and without delay.

Basil (justice):

Let fairness guide all outcomes.

Bay leaf (truth):

Let what is concealed be seen and understood.

Chili flakes (force):

Ignite the uncovering of truth with undeniable force.

Rusty nails/screws (binding wrongdoing):

Let harmful actions be bound to consequence.

Feather (truth and balance):

May truth be light, but never denied.

Stones (protection and grounding):

Anchor this work in strength, clarity, and protection.

The Incantation (Raise the Energy)

Hold the open jar in your hands or over your heart and speak:

By breath and bone, by word and will, Let hidden lies be standing still. No shadow cloaked, no secret sealed, What’s done in dark shall now be revealed. With steady voice and open sight, I call forth truth into the light. No twisted tongue, no false disguise, May stand against what now shall rise. Let justice wake where wrong was sown, Let every deed be fully known. What’s bound in silence, now unbind, Bring clarity to heart and mind. As truth is spoken, clear and bright, So justice stands in rightful light. As I will it and I call out to thee, I call out to Ma’at and Hecate— By my breath, so mote it be.

Sealing the Jar

Close the jar tightly. Hold it firmly and say:

What is false shall fall away. What is hidden shall be known. What is unjust shall be weighed and corrected. I call for truth. I call for balance.

Candle Charge

hold the jar, grab the candle from its holder and let the wax of the candle drip around the lid of the jar and seal the lid.

By flame and will, this work is bound. Truth revealed, justice found.

Closing

Hecate, for guiding through shadow—thank you. Ma’at, for holding truth and balance—thank you. May this work unfold as it should.

Create sacred space to work in according to your path. Take a ball of air-dry clay about the size of your fist. Roll the ball between your hands, shaping it into a long tube resembling a spaghetti noodle or a worm. Make the tube about ¼ inch thick. Starting from one end, begin to roll the tube up into a spiral shape. Continue to roll until you’ve reached the other end. If cracks form in the clay, wet your finger with some water to smooth them out.

Materials

White air-dry clay

Crystals

Shells

Stones

Optional: gesso, acrylic paint, paintbrush

A small cup of water
