🧧 Weekly Witchy CHALLENGE - Amulets & Talismans

This challenge is so interesting because I’ve loved the idea of having/creating a talisman or amulet but had yet to do it. With this challenge, it has pushed me to finally go for it! I decided to consecrate my wedding ring and charge it with extra love & peace when worn. It’s something I wear every single day, and for that I’m grateful because there’s no chance of me forgetting it. I also found a super cool necklace at a craft venue a few weeks ago, and I plan on consecrating it too! The necklace drew me in immediately (and it was a bit pricy) but I just had to get it. Had people telling me it’s an evil eye, but I saw it as exactly the opposite! It’s my divine eye giving me guidance, and it’s the perfect item (imo) to consecrate! Thank you so much for the fun challenge this week and for pushing me to do my very first spell!!! :heart:

Aww, thank you so much! I prefer more simple wedding rings, so I’m really glad you like it! I think it’s beautiful as well. :two_hearts: You’re correct on my nail polish color! I like to pair it with white or chocolate brown, but decided to just do the mint this time. :blush: I’m so happy to have finally done my first spell, it’s such a great accomplishment! Blessed be :sparkles::heart:

Perfect timing! I ordered the yellow jade crystal dragon skull as the first piece of my collection. I plan to make it a talisman to draw in the elemental qualities of air when I use it to cast a circle. :dash:

** hi Megan, and you are absolutely right making an oil would be great way to charge my tailsman and amulet.!!!

I was thinking about using a Circes oil to charge it because she was really good with her sorcery.
Or on spelling 8 there’s a Let’s Make A Love Oil! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:


I am pretty sure I have everything to make this potion :test_tube:

I absolutely love your sword I am in love with a sword. I see, what a good protection amulet!

Ostara thank you, for your adoration!!!:blush:

haha I totally relate – it’s like where did time go, ya know? One day it’s Friday and then I turn around and it’s already Thursday again. And you can quote Halloweentown all you want! I have a shirt that I got from St. Helens, OR, when we went with our family a few years ago to their Halloweentown Festival. It’s orange and it says “Being normal is vastly overrated!” :jack_o_lantern:

Small goals is all you can aim for!

I can’t wait to see what you do! :heart:

It does kind of look like a Nazar :nazar_amulet: Evil Eye Protection… :thinking: but also like the All-Seeing-Eye! Either way, I like your jewelry and I think the pieces are beautiful!

Ohh, I bet it’s beautiful! :yellow_heart: I can’t wait to see it!

This’ll be nice. I’ve had an amulet/talisman my whole life. As a child it was a camel necklace (we lived in the middle east at the time so it worked), then as a teenager it was an RSC badge (royal shakespear company, again it fitted as now in England), now its my “benny necklace”, named by my husband as he says I’m benny from the film The Mummy, as this amulet/talisman represents alot of different spiritual paths. :joy: See what happens if I try and create a new one, for Spells8 (Ive not put a picture of my amulet, its camera shy :joy::thinking:). Blessed be to everyone. Love all the wonderous designs. So creative and magikal. :heart:

I think that’s an amazing & super creative idea, using tattoos as amulets or talisman, coming from another tattoo enthusiast :full_moon_with_face::new_moon_with_face: because they literally become a part of you so, enchanting or charging a special one with a special intention is powerful, personal & beautiful
🩵🤍🩷 I would let your heart & soul and Hecate guide you as to the most comfortable way to go about enchanting or charging your tattoo!
Sending Light Love & Blessings :candle:🩶:woman_in_lotus_position:t4:

Challenge Entry - Amulet & Talismans

I had inspiration and time today to get my challenge done. I made a talismanic spell jar imbued with the intention of improving my physical health - to shed some points and gain some muscle.

Ingredients:

  • A small glass jar with a lid
  • Rosemary: Rosemary has long been associated with good health and vitality. It is believed to enhance memory, stimulate circulation, and boost the immune system.
  • Chamomile: Chamomile has calming properties and is known for its soothing effects on the body. It can promote relaxation, support healthy sleep patterns, and aid digestion.
  • Lemon Balm: Lemon balm is a calming herb that can help reduce anxiety and promote relaxation. It may also support healthy digestion and contribute to a sense of overall well-being.
  • Ashwagandha: Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic herb that helps the body adapt to stress. It can support adrenal health, promote relaxation, and boost overall vitality.
  • Citrine: Citrine is a crystal known for its association with abundance and vitality. It can promote physical energy, detoxification, and overall wellness.
  • Clear quartz: Clear quartz is a versatile crystal that amplifies energy and promotes balance. It can enhance the healing properties of other ingredients and support overall physical health.
  • A small figurine or charm representing a healthy body or a symbol of well-being.

Instructions:

  • Cleanse the jar: I cleansed my jar and materials with Palo Santo.
  • Set the intention: I clearly stated my intention for the talismanic spell jar, focusing on improving my physical health. I visualized myself in a state of vibrant well-being as I held the jar.
  • Layer the ingredients: I started by placing a layer of rosemary sprigs, lemon balm, chamomile, and ashwagandha at the bottom of the jar. Then I placed the citrine and clear quartz crystals on top. Lastly, I added the small figurine representing a healthy body and well-being.
  • Seal the jar: I closed the jar tightly with the lid and sealed it with wax.
  • Charge the spell jar: While holding the jar, I visualized vibrant health and vitality flowing into my body. I focused on my intention and feel the energy of the ingredients amplifying my physical well-being.


Another perfectly timed challenge, thank you!

Probably my favorite quote and was like a lesson for me. Once I figured that out, life was so much easier. I haven’t figured out small goals yet though :laughing: :woman_shrugging:t2:

I think I have a rough idea what to do for this challenge, thanks to my therapist today! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: We both agreed that the best thing I can do right now is to find my inner strength to express myself authentically and to no longer make myself small for the sake of others! :sparkling_heart: I said to her that I’m going to enlist the help of Goddess Kali for this and she was thrilled! :smiling_face: :black_heart:

I’ll be getting attuned to her energy again through this book that used to be beyond my level of comprehension before, at the beginning of my tantric path. Familiar excitement surged in me when picking it up, and also new understanding :smiling_face: :sparkles: I’m not sure if I’m going to find a ritual for consecrating a talisman of power (I still might!) in the book itself, but I know by the end of it I’ll have an inspiration for one for sure :black_heart: :fire:

I love that you’ve had an amulet pretty much your whole life and how it’s changed and moved with you and your path. That’s really special! :revolving_hearts:

Yes, I believe they can! :blush: That’s a lovely tattoo - it looks very protective.

I love this! :clap: I may save this and do something similar, if that’s okay with you :sweat_smile: your talisman has inspired me!

You and me both :joy: it’s a frequent conversation between me and my therapist!

I’m certain you will :heart: Making yourself small for the sake of others is no fun – trust me, I’m a familiar small person :joy: and it’s especially difficult as a mom. I’m confident that you’ll find your inner strength. May Kali guide you!

Absolutely, feel free to save it and modify it to your needs! I’ve been all about self-care for the past 2 months - with an 8-week program for depression with AbleTo through my insurance and I also started seeing a therapist. My next journey is a 52-week program through my insurance (again) using Rally Coach called Real Appeal. I’m trying not to change too much at once. One habit at a time. One healthy change at a time until it becomes routine.

The talisman is a visual reminder of my intentions and the outcome I’m seeking. Plus it’s tiny enough to carry with me if I need the extra support / help somedays.

Thank you for all of your enthusiasm in my personal journey with Hecate.
I hope to adventure to more Godesses but I am still in the abyss and the more I conquer all of my inner demons the more I will crawl my way out to my full potential. I am still not operating completely from my highest source so that being said, my craft has given me the opportunity to learn myself on a soul level. Much love and respect goes out to you!
Last night I stayed on my regular regimen journaling my entire life everyday! I just know this is going to help me so I did, enchant my **Love Potion *:purple_heart::black_heart::purple_heart: last night! I am enchanting my

Artemisa- Aw you always pour from a full cup don’t you!

I absolutely Love this quote! This is exactly why I got my tattoo. I don’t want to worry about what other people thought, but then I find myself worried sometimes that other people are gonna think things. To each there own right!
