Various Uses for Fossils in Magic from Wisht Waters by Gemma Gary

"Sea fossils, as well a guarding against drowning, had other protective uses. The fossils of sea urchins, or Echinoids, were employed for a variety of protections. Upon these fossils, one might find a star-like pattern, very reminiscent of the 'daisy-wheels', which one might find inscribed into the timbers and masonry of ancient buildings, most likely for apotropaic purposes. Their folk names include shepherd's crowns, thunder stones and fairy loaves. They protected against thunder, evil spirits and witches, prevented milk turning sour, and in common with other fossil amulets, they sweated in the presence of poison. As 'fairy loaves' they might be used to ward off supernatural interference from the baking process, and to ensure an abundance of bread."

pg. 104

"Belemnite fossils, from an extinct squid-like creature, were known as thunderbolts, and were thus kept as charms to protect against lightning. Once believed to be the tongues of ancient serpents, fossilised shark teeth were one of the fossil amulets against poison"

pg. 104

"Rings of stone, formed from the fossilised stems of the sea-lily were known as St Cuthbert's Beads, as were worn as amulets against evil influences."

pg. 105

"The 'Devil's Toenail' fossils were carried as charms against rheumatic pain, and they were powdered to be used in the treatment of soreness of the back in horses."

pg. 107

"Various accoutrements of the sea witch's divinatory work may be seen in the Museum of Witchcraft. Here we find that belemnites were employed by a Newlyn sea witch named Nancy. She would read the fall of her 'sea stones' to make predictions for fishermen. Perhaps their traditional association with lightning gave belemnites the virtue to make predictions regarding storms and changes in the weather?"

pg. 108

[...] There have been many ways to bless, consecrate and 'sain' water, thus rendering it more potent and useful within various rites and magical operations. This might be achieved by steeping or immersing charmed items within the water, or else allowing water to flow or be poured over such an item. These may include charm-stones, fossils, flints, or the metals gold and silver.

pgs. 115-116

"Ammonite fossils were also employed as charm stones to cure cattle in 17th century Scotland. They were known as 'cramp stones' because cattle afflicted with cramp would be treated by being bathed in water in which a 'cramp stone' had been steeped for a number of hours."

pg. 122

[ ] bay leaf

[ ] citrine

[ ] eucalyptus

[ ] lemon balm

[ ] lemon

[ ] sunflower

[ ] rosemary

Steps:

1. Cleanse bowl, candle, and crystals

2. Add in pink salt, visualizing fulfillment in your life. think of the salt filling the bowl as love filling the cracks in your soul

3. Add in your herbs. As you scoop each herb, make sure it knows what it's job is. Many herbs have many different properties, so be clear with your intentions. Thank each herb after it's been added, as it's doing a service for you. If using crystal chips, you can add them at this time as well

4. Stir your herbs clockwise while thinking of all the areas in your life you'd like to heal, how you intend to do that, and what you'd like to be brought into your life. Think of it as if you already have it

5. Grab your bay leaf and write a healing sigil on one side, and your name and DOB on the other. Set aside.

6. Grab your apple and carve a space to set the candle in. The apple should function as your candle holder in the bowl

7. Carve your name on one side of the candle, and "healing" on the other side

8. (Optional) Anoint your candle with a premade healing oil, or just olive oil. Dress it with rose, lavender, and rosemary.

9. Set the candle in the apple, then cup your hands around the bowl. Visualize yellow, pink, or white energy going into the bowl while also focusing on what it is you plan to accomplish.

10. Light the candle and burn the bay leaf

11. Let candle burn all the way out

12. Dispose of materials as you see fit (DO NOT PUT SALT IN THE GROUND!!)

Happy Witching!!!

Forbidden Spell: The Wound Binding Bandage

Today, I wanted to share with all of you a new spell of mine, the wound binding bandage. This forbidden spell -which is to be drawn on bandages- is intended for first-aid, stabilizing and protecting sharp-force injuries (punctures, slashes, and stab wounds) until doctors can arrive to administer proper treatment.

The spell consists of three parts; the inner [sealing] glyph (blue), the outer [binding] glyph (red), and the satellite [drying] glyphs (green).

The central [sealing] glyph is the most important part of the spell, sealing the wound to quickly halt bleeding. Pull signs tug both sides of the wound back into place while the binding sign and inverted cut spell seal the wound shut. To allow the spell to seal even the deepest of wounds, claw signs are placed around the outer [binding] glyph, allowing the [sealing] glyph to reach deep into the body.

Next, the outer [binding] glyph consists of only two signs, a strengthening sign that reinforces the bandage and a winding sign that makes the bandage automatically wrap around the wound. This automatic wrapping lets the bandage be administered almost instantly, saving precious time - time that could decide between life and death.

Lastly, the satellite [drying] spells dry out the bandage (and any blood that comes in contact with it) without drying out the wound. This helps to accelerate clotting and slow blood loss while allowing the wound to stay moist and heal.

While magic used on the body can be dangerous, by taking the proper precautions, these risks can be eliminated. In the case of this spell, these precautions involve simply sealing the ink with a waterproof resin or lacquer to prevent the woodcuror from coming into contact with blood. Gauze should then be secured below the sealed portion of the bandage to prevent uncomfortable rubbing with the hardened surface.

While not a suitable replacement for proper medical treatment, the wound binding bandage has massive potential to save lives in emergency scenarios. Magic is intended to make lives better, after all. What kind of witch would I be if I didn’t lend a helping hand to those in need?

Okay could use some pointers🙋🏼‍♀️

Does anyone have any recommendations on online crystal stores? I found an amazon crystal store but not sure if I entirely trust it nor do I want to really buy from amazon because of how big it has gotten, but if anyone knows that I could trust them that would be also helpful☺️

Any online trustable company’s on here I could check out for witchcraft or spiritual healing stuff?

Witch/Herbalist Advice Requested

So, I remember seeing a long time ago a recipe for a balm or salve that was used for pain relief, but I can't remember the ingredients.

The only things I can remember is that it was good for arthritis/general aches and pains and that, I think, a couple of the ingredients were Beeswax and maybe cinnamon???

I haven't seen the recipe in years and I can't remember where, but I was hoping to give it a try, considering my Grandma uses pain medication and the good ol' bureaucrats are deciding to basically shut down pain pill production for who knows how long.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Walnut spell for healing, peace, and growth

I created this spell for a loved one who is dealing with some trauma.

I wrote it several months back after cracking a walnut into two perfect halves. I knew I wanted to use it in a spell.

*Note that this not intended to be a replacement for the therapy or medication needed. I’m just adding in some of my own magic and energy to aid in their journey.

Cures for Illness and for Cramps

"Streams held an important place in the rich corpus of rites employed in Romany tradition. For curative purposes, upon either a full or new moon, an ailing person could be taken to a stream, wherein their hands and face would be bathed to 'wash' the illness away. For the same purpose, nail parings and hair clippings from the ailing person might be cast into a stream to carry the affliction away. A Romany cure for cramps involves simply gathering water from a stream, placing it in a bowl and keeping it beneath the bed. The presence of this water will bring relief to the sufferer who sleeps over it."

Wisht Waters by Gemma Gary, pg. 92
