Black salt / witches' salt
WARNING: do NOT mix it up with the edible black salt for kitchen use. They are both called “black salt” but one is salt with activated charcoal or salt from a volcanic area that can be used in cooking, the other is a mix of salt, ashes, and other non-edible things used as a protection or banishing spell. I personally use it as a halfway between warding/protection and banishing as I add things usually associated with banishing.
I tried to search up the origin of the “witches’ salt” but I didn’t find anything solid (but also I made only a couple of quick searches on google because I was crunching time as I did this either before/after work or sometimes during slow moments at work) so, my best guess would be that its origin might be derived from the use of salt in many folkloric traditions as a protection or to purify, mixed a bit with a concept similar to the "witches' bottle", but I digress.
Disclaimer again: I wrote most of this during work time and edited it afterwards so I can't guarantee the form and grammar used.
I first made black salt after a couple of quick searches for protection and banishing spells that could help me in my practice, as I first started I was a bit of an idiot (to quote Set) and didn't keep anything to protect myself around when doing divination and other things.
With time I noticed that it's a good all-around protection and also, with a couple of tweaks, could be perfect to also banish in a "bounce back to sender" way.
There are different recipes on the Internet and among witchy communities but they mostly differ for some ingredients added (or not added) and I believe all would work… but surely, IMHO, if you tailor them to your needs it would be more effective.
This is what I made for myself, and I'll also include the "return to sender" version.
Tools you’ll need:
a jar with a lid to store it
mortar & pestle (not mandatory: I don’t have one so I use a tiny ceramic casserole and one of those wooden pestles for cocktails bc that’s what I had at home… use whatever could do the job)
a candle in the colour you associate with protection and warding
Ingredients:
salt (duh-)
ashes (either incense ashes, firepit ashes/charcoal, soot or you could also use activated charcoal)
eggshells powder
black pepper
rosemary
bay leaves
sage (kitchen kind is perfect!)
whatever herb you associate with protection
Process:
Honestly, you should do this however it feels right for you. You could cast a circle, call the elements or whatever. I don’t do that because it’s not part of my practice. You don’t even need to cleanse or anything if you don’t feel it’s necessary: it’ll work anyway.
Light the candle (ofc if you think it’s needed) and put the ingredients in the mortar, a little bit at a time, to grind them a bit and most importantly mix all of them. Focus on your intention, if you feel you need to recite something to enchant it then do it. Mix all the ingredients, I usually start with salt, add eggshell powder, all the other ingredients and then another bit of salt at the end to “close” everything.
If you want to give it a little “boost” you could write on a bay leaf “I am protected” or the like and then burn it (do it in a fireproof container! bay leaves are nasty burners and like to pop a lot!) to “activate” it and mix it to the rest of the ingredients.
When everything is all mixed, then you can pour it into the jar and close it. It’s up to you if you want to seal the lid with some wax or not. I do not do it because if I decide to redo it I can open it and clean the jar more easily before preparing the new black salt.
Again, it’s up to you if you want to charge it under the moonlight/sunlight or in some other way: do what you feel that's right to do.
And that’s it! Congrats you made black salt that will protect your space!
For the return-to-sender version:
add more pepper
slap also some paprika or better some chilli pepper powder
also put there some garlic
you can add other ingredients you associate with banishing
add a bay leaf (or also a piece of paper) with the intention written on it like “the harm/malicious intent is returned to who cast it” or whatever you feel right
complete!

Been kinda working on a personal thing on and off lately, it's gonna require me to do art like this of ALL my AU designs, but I'm slowly working through it all. Thought I'd share most of the one's I've finished so far. So far we have AWLB AU Puppet, Michael (part 1) Mangle, Ballora, Bonbon, Bonnet, Circus Baby, Eleanor, Ennard, Fetch, Nightmare and Plushtrap. WWLWWF AU Plushtrap, Michael, Elizabeth and Evan. And my two FNaF OC's, Stardrop (who has a minor role in AWLB) and Hal Hyena. (sorry for including my OC's. I really don't do like, anything with any of my OC's anymore, but I just wanted to include Star and Hal in this.) I plan to try and get art like this done of all the designs I've made refs for so far first, then I'll be taking a step back again to make refs of everyone I never got around to doing refs for from AWLB along with finishing the designs for Through the Static. Likes and reblogs are always appreciated.

Hello, just came by to say I love your durge oc! Do you ever think he tried to keep a hyena as a pet?
Awe thank you!! Have a doodle that feels related to this

Given his affinity for gnolls, I wouldn’t be surprised if he had a hyena at some point! (In that loose way that he’d probably just feed/vaguely train it, but it wouldn’t like. Follow him around the city/temple or anything)
(I wouldn’t be surprised if he got a littler of hyenas at some point and treated it like a cult activity- come help raise a hyena into a gnoll, it’s probably Bhaal approved)

[...] Thus, extreme caution should be exercised when foreign terms, like our modern word "demon", carrying specific values within a certain local and cultural environment are employed to descrive Egyptian notions of diverse and multidimensional nature. [...] Egyptian demonic entities could be either beneficent or maleficent whereas "demons" in our modern sense are almost always maleficent. [...]
- P. Kousoulis, The Demonic Lore of Ancient Egypt: Question on Definitions, Introduction in "Ancient Egyptian Demonology - Studies on the Boundaries between the Demonic and the Divine in Egyptian Magic", 2011

Glenn would hate those ‘this Disney villian was ACTUALLY the good guy!! beauty in the beast is Stockholm Syndrome!! Scar wanted to help the hyenas!!’ type motherfuckers and you know it. We all know a motherfucker like that, Glenn absolutely is not one of them. This feels like an important distinction to me of the type of Disney fan he is.
