#fertility magic

I watched gulf fritillary butterflies engaged in a mating ritual in our garden this afternoon 🦋🦋.

Plant a wish, kiss a flower, dance until you’re dizzy.

Magic loves a heart that’s giggling.

No maypole? No bonfire? No problem.

Beltane lives in every candle lit, every flower picked, every whispered “thank you” to the dirt.

Really, I think I'm just trying to give him a mental breakdown, at this point.

Gotta love that Vessel Spell!

It was time to freshen up the altar. Now that we’re working on having a baby I need everyone’s support on hand. I’ve plugged a ritual/meditation routine into my finch app and I’m ready to go!

I’ve decided to have designated offering days to my three primary deities so that I can make sure I’m giving at least a little focus to each every week because I’ve been SLACKING!

I’m also busting out the medicinal teas, tonight’s tea (with both fertility and peace in mind) is mint, lavender, and raspberry leaf.

This is a Original piece of digital art by me. A statue of a woman holding a pinecone charm.

First I just wanted to give a little history of pinecones.

Pinecone In History. In Mexico there is a god called “Chicomecoatl” sometimes depicted with an offering of pine cones in one hand, and an evergreen tree in the other. In Hindu their are deities that are often depicted holding a pine cone. The Egyptian Staff of Osiris from (1224 BC) depicts two spiraling snakes rising up to meet at a pine cone. In Ancient Assyrian there is a carvings from (713-716 BC) depicting winged people holding pine cones.

Celts, used pine cones for fertility charm. . Romans used them for the goddess of love Venus. But there are to many others to add to this post.😁

In Rome, the pope wears a pine cone carved into the holy staff that's used in religious ceremonies. There's a huge gargantuan bronze pine cone statue at the Vatican in Rome. 👇

All of these depictions of pine cone are symbols of spiritualty; and let's not forget durning the Winter Solstice (Christmas) people have pinecones on their altars.

Pinecone Purification,Cleansing & Banishing: Burning the tree's pine needles or using pine oil can the strong fresh scent. in the south it's been used to increase your energy when you're feeling stuck in life, it purify the spirit & clear the mine & heal the body.

The energy of Pine smoke can also be used rituals or ceremonies to help release negative energy.

Making Pinecone Incense Sticks: You can easily make your own pine incense stick by tie pine needles. BUT LET the sticks dry for about two weeks before use. (If you can't find pine cones or needles you can buy the Incense or the Pine Oil)

Left Male & Right Female

Now that you have a little idea on pine cones in hoodoo it's one of the most effective charms to used if you are trying to conceive.

How To Tell Which Is Which? To start pinecones comes in male and female. The Male pine cones do not make the hard-shell it is soft and spongy and it's shell closer together. The Female pine cones is the had shell and it's shell is further apart.

Hoodoo Fertility Charm: Get yourself a female pinecone. Drizzle the cone with some Honey.

Next add some hair from the head of the (female) and the (male's) head of the couple who is trying to conceive. Now place the hair in the honey on the pinecone.

Last get a small white plate and a make X in salt from one end to the plate to the other, place the cone in the middle of the plate.

READ PRAYER. Lord, I'm asking you for a child. Your word says you will give us the desires of our hearts (Psalm 37:4), and this is my greatest desire. I want to be a parent. I want to raise a child to love and serve you all of his/her life.
