Silenced Empress

I recently started up my practice again and the first thing I made was a protection candle and some oils. I haven't shared any witchy things in a while so here is how I make protection oil.

You can use any oil, I prefer to use olive oil. I also put red pepper and a rose thorn in there because I like them. I would also have added egg shell powder but I didn't have any. You can tailor this to what ever you have one hand. The world is your oyster do whatever the fuck you want. You can wear this oil, lock mirrors, windows, add to spells, ect... Personally I like to put it on before I do spell work. Stay protected witches !

Olive Oil

Salt - purification, cleansing

Sage - protection, hex breaking

Red pepper - warding, spell amplification

Parsley - protection, purification

Thyme - protection

Black salt - protection, dispel's negative energy

Rose thorn - repellent for negative energy, baneful protection

Tigers' eye - protection

A petition with intentions

Edit :

I forgot to add this the first time.

A simple spell with multiple uses, the base portion of this spell serves to enhance and strengthen the chosen focus. Skip the ravioli, and make cacio e pepe with your favorite short pasta for a strength and endurance spell.

Disclaimers:

Some of the listed associations are specific to my practice. If you have a different understanding of the magical uses of the ingredients then the spell will likely work differently for you. Please substituted or find alternative spells as appropriate for your needs.

I use this spell a lot in regards to emotional strength when I'm having bad depressive episodes. It takes ~15 minutes for me to make, and is effective for me. Please keep in mind that magic can suppprt and reinforce medicine, but is not a substitute for medical treatment or therapy, and if you have the need and means, you should seek professional assistance.

Magical Ingredients:

Butter, good for adding determination, tenacity and commitment to any spell

Pepper, for strength, warding and protection

Parmigiano, for strength

Ravioli uses will vary with your chosen filling. These are some common versions I do. Spinach ravioli, for strength and endurance. Beef ravioli, for passion, fertility and endurance. Mushroom ravioli, for abundance and prosperity.

Special mention to optional ingredients, vinegar for protection, garlic for protection, parsley for protection purification and lust, and chili flake for passion and protection.

I got a LOT of these from @afledglings-guideto-witchcraft when they answered an ask I sent in, that blog is a fantastic place for information whether you've been practicing a few days or a few years imo.

I've been posting a lot about trying to find information on this subject and now I've gotten a good list compiled in a google doc and figured I'd share it with y'all, feel free to add on your own notes or just any commentary you have or experiences you've had using certain ingredients. I'm using some of these to make a hex jar to try and help a friend out with a shitty abusive household, which I might post more about if y'all would be interested in it, or if I just feel up to it.

Don't ever let anyone tell you you are a bad person or you're going to get hurt if you practice baneful magic at all no matter what. The threefold law is a rule that Wiccans follow, no one else is obligated to believe in it, I respect people who believe in it and they should respect people who don't. Always make sure to judge a situation very carefully and use this magic appropriately.

Sea Shell Magic

Sea shells, As I’m sure we all know are the outer shells that protect the shell fish from outside forces. They become a home, Guarding them from predators.

So how can we use them magically you say?

For Protection and Banishments of course!

They can be made into Talismans by carving sigils, or spells into them.

They can be used to protect, or banish someone by inserting a name, doll, or piece of clothing to them and sealing it with wax.
