👛 Weekly Witchy CHALLENGE - Making Objects Magickal

[IrisW]

I’m not sure whether this fits exactly, but I got a kit to make a samhain charm in my subscription box which I’ve hung on my altar.

I’ve also now carved my pumpkin for protection

That bat mouth is awesome!

I’m probably gonna miss out on this challenge unless I can scrounge together a post this evening

Omg I love this challenge!! I have learned SO much from your replies and photos. Amazing work everyone!!

I saw this challenge in the forum yesterday and started to really think about what items I have around me the most often, or those which I use most often. The item I settled on was my pink himalayan salt tealight holder. It lives on my desk which is where I spend most of my time. And I love lighting a tealight first thing in the morning as a way to begin my day.

In the photo below you can see the items I used for consecration, and they were on the floor in their proper spots during the ritual but I moved them up to the desk for the photo. They are roughly in their proper locations surrounding the candle holder.

Lit tealight for fire - south
moon water made with the full moon - west
Salt in a terra cotta bowl (it’s painted and glazed, do y’all think that’s okay?) for earth - north
some feathers collected from the farm for air since I still don’t have incense lol - east.

After completing the ritual HERE, I said my own little spell to activate the magickal property being bestowed upon it:

When flame is alight,
Shield with all of your might
To keep all who dwell here
Safe day and night.

Decided to charge it with protection I like the energy it gives off anyway, and now it’s going to have a bit more oomph!

I might actually do another one for a bonus lol I was thinking to consecrate my skin care stuff with a beauty spell! Gotta come up with a spell though, I’ll think on it

Have a great day everyone! Blessed be!

You know my mom has the most beautiful dining room set up (and if I can get a present picture I will)
But she has always decorated her big ole dining table for the seasons and holidays’ and trust me she don’t forget one! Haha
But to me those are the most magical items :
the ones you place out for everyone to see and they just feel the energy you put into them.

edit
Here’s the FaceTime pictures I got tonight’ lol’ and let me tell you that this woman didn’t like Halloween when I was younger’ lol’ she never decorated for Halloween’ so seeing this tonight just really warmed my heart’

Great challenge again!
It took a while to make an Enchantment/Consecrate ritual of my own with a Spells8 border. It’s a mix of mostly MeganB’s ritual here, which I love and think is really well written, Spells8’s website and a tweak of my own here and there. I’ll post a picture tomorrow of the necklace I intend to enchant tonight as an edit.

If any wish to print it on their own paper…

Greetings all

First of all, I did a cleansing of the Amulet necklace, of the Talisman necklace.

This is my Amulet and it has an area to place some rosemary or other protecting herb. This is my first time doing an Amulet. This Amulet is for protection against psychic attacks or bad spirits.

This necklace I have had for a while thought it would be a good Talisman since I do wear it more. I figured it would be something good and help me with the higher energies in getting my energies of self-confidence better. This Talisman is for increasing self-confidence.

I thought tonight later when I have some free time and do a house protection bag and hang it by my front door. I followed the Amulet/Talisman Consecration and the House Protection Spells8 on Charm Bags.

I find these weekly witchy challenges are getting me to dig deeper into the magical witchy world and thank you @BryWisteria for this week’s challenge.
Blessed Be

It’s started just not complete. I mixed blueberry and Himalayan pink salt to make a dark purple salt. This is the layers from bottom to top. I used rosemary stick to purify items and remove negative energy, and burned a white candle. I also burn mugwort while doing this (mainly because I wanted to smell it ).
Blueberry salt- protection, peace and self love
Amethyst- calming, relieving of stress and anxiety
Rose hips- anti-stress, harmony and peace
Hibiscus- Harmony, courage and love
Lavender- love, healing, happiness and peace of mind
Oregano- protection, comfort, luck and happiness

I didn’t really chant or say anything, I just zoned out focusing on the intent I wanted the necklace to be.

[Jeannie1]

Thank you Megan such a wonderful spell! I am so blessed to know such a positive person!

No worries, @MeganB, challenges are meant to be fun, not stressful! That’s why there are Catch-Up Challenges- and the next one isn’t too far away

I’m so glad you enjoyed the challenge, @Eliza_Beth- it looks like you were able to a beautiful touch of magick to an item of meaning for you, and one that you use everyday! I love the idea of consecrating your skincare stuff too- great job with your spellwork!

Beautiful work on your Enchantment/Consecration Ritual, @Mark01- it turned out lovely! Thank you so much for sharing the download link too, you are very kind for sharing!

Beautiful work with your blessing and consecration of the necklaces, @debra2- they are both so lovely! The second one is gorgeous, and I adore how you can put dried herbs in the first. May your lovely spellwork and blessed jewelry help protect you! Great job!

Oh the spell jar necklace turned out beautiful, @NoName- you included so many lovely things inside (impressive for such a cute small jar!). the end result is both beautiful and blessed- thanks so much for sharing!
