#charging objects

Charging Objects is simpler than some may realize & truly a very practical bit of witchcraft most can easily master. Virtually any object can become magical & serve a higher purpose than originally intended ✨🧿📿🐚🎖️🎲💎🪬🧹🔑🎀🪭🪄📓🖊️✨

As many of us have had some high, intense anxiety recently, we sometimes forget to take care of our mental health, as well as our physical. I can attest to that, especially today. My brain was all over the place, and my I was having intense heart palpitations, more intense then I’ve had in recent memory. I decided to do an in depth meditation. Like a hardcore meditation, if such a thing even exists. 

And, may I say, it made a world of a difference.

I also used this meditation time to charge my fluorite crystal, as I had a lot of school stuff I needed to attend to with a clear and level head. 

Normally, a typed out meditation guide doesn’t help me much, since I’m kind of a “go where your soul tells you to go” sort of person, but I needed to save this process, as it worked wonders. I’m also sharing it for anyone who needs it right now. We can get through any rough patch if we just stick together and take care of ourselves!

Do whatever you do to prepare for meditation. Turn on your music/nature sounds, get comfy, open your windows, whatever(for those who are curious, I played 1/1 by Brian Eno during this meditation).

For this meditation, it works best if you lay down on your back, with your hands and heels touching the ground below you.

Square breathe(inhale for 4 beats, hold for 4, exhale for 4, hold for 4). When you inhale, feel yourself almost levitate. When you exhale, feel yourself sink into the floor/bed/mat/etc.

When you are ready, visualize roots growing from your body and entering the earth below you. Start with your hands, then your arms, then your shoulders, then your spine, then your abdomen, then your hips, then your legs, and lastly your heels.

When you have planted your roots, suck up the earth’s energy through these roots, and feel it within your body. Go the same order as above.

Relish in the energy. You may never feel bliss like this again.

If all you plan to do is meditate, you may stop here. If you wish to charge an object, slowly grab your object and place it on your chest.

If possible, place all your fingertips on your object. Grow roots within your object through your fingertips.

Fill the object with the earth’s energy you are collecting. Either out loud or in your head, state the intention wish to give your object. Give it time to respond to your wishes. You will feel a difference in your object when it has received your request and has been charged.

When you are ready, square breathe and return to your original state of being.

Hopefully this helps some of you. Happy witchcrafting!

You might be having concentration issues that are making visualization difficult.You might also have become desensitized to the feeling of the energy flowing (I found that happened to me the longer I did visualization-based energy work - I stopped feeling the energy flowing but it still produced the same results). Then again, you might just need to shake things up and look into different methods of charging objects. Charging by moonlight is generally very effective and does not require visualization. 

We've gotten quite a few asks in the wake of this post about how to charge jewellery with energy (and by extension, other objects). So, here's a how-to!

Charging an object is a very simple process. The first thing to determine is your intent. What are you trying to achieve? Do you need a pick me up? Something to help you focus? Something to draw attention to you? Once you've figured out what your intent is, keep it in mind.

When you're charging your object, pick somewhere quiet where you won't be disturbed. Hold your object in both your hands and start focusing on your intent. Try not to let your thoughts wander, and start to visualise your object taking on the energy you need. Some visualisation techniques you could use are:

Picturing the object surrounded by a bright light representing your intent

Picturing the object being 'filled' with your intent, like you would fill a bottle with water

Picturing yourself with the object succeeding with whatever your intent is (eg. charging a ring with positive energy; imagine yourself wearing the ring and feeling happy!)

As your hands warm up the object, imagine the heat is your intent washing over it.

These are not the only methods, and there isn't any wrong one- so if you come up with something that suits you better, go for it!

Some things to remember: it's good to recharge your object every once in a while if you're using it in the long term. Things do tend to pick up energy in everyday travel, so it's important to clean that off and replace it with what you need instead!

Also, it is possible to charge things for others, of course; like a gift you are going to give them. However, don't use this to be manipulative. Charging a gift for them with something like a good luck charm or positivity is okay, but anything bigger than that you should ask for permission for!
