I love Lady Aphrodites Sloshy water sounds

hehe sloshy…funny word

A spell jar to hold the energies and essence of the ocean for use when one is away from the ocean. Good for charging, meditation, sea grounding, spell strengthening, and general ocean witchcraft.

You Will Need:

🌊 A Jar with a tight sealing lid or cork (preferably one that won’t rust) 🌊 Beach Sand 🌊 Sea Salt 🌊 Sea Water (or storm water if you can’t get sea water, tap works if really needed) 🌊 Dried Kelp or Kelp Powder (small amount) 🌊 Sea Shells or crushed shells of choice 🌊 Driftwood (small) 🌊 Sea glass 🌊 Twine or Rope or Blue Ribbon

Steps:

🌊 Make sure your jar is cleansed and yourself before beginning spell. Have all items prepped and your area cleansed and prepared as you see fit.

🌊 In your jar add the sand covering the bottom. On top of the sand add your shells, driftwood, and sea glass

🌊 In a separate bowl or cup add your water and in it mix in your kelp and your salt, stirring clockwise focusing on the smell it emits (which will be salty and kelpy like the sea) and how the waves and currents of the ocean churn and move. If you desired you may play sounds of waves on a device to add to the visualization. As you stir focus on this visualization and putting those images into the water as you stir it.

🌊 Once thoroughly mixed pour it carefully into your jar, visualizing how the waves rush onto the beach during high-tide, covering the sand and shells on it. 

🌊 “Water of salt and brine, upon the sand and bits of shell, the ocean I capture into this jar, so I may draw from its energy like a well.” While saying this focus on your intent to capture the energy of the ocean and have it with you when you need it, and keep visualizing the ocean and beach.

🌊 Once you have all of your water in the jar seal it tight with the cork or lid.

🌊 Take your rope/twine/ribbon and tie it around the jar just below the lip of the jar. “I seal the power of the sea inside, I capture the beach at high-tide.”

A sea spell for any sea witches who wish to astral travel, especially if it is to the ocean. Good for witches who are stuck inland.
