I’m not sure about the crystal part, but remember the spell is about your intention. You hold the power the ingredients gives it an extra push.

I think you and your partner should make separate spell bottles, that way one spell won’t interfere with the other.

**Challenge Entry**

I wrote my own jar spell to attract luck and prosperity as the moon waxes and Imbolc draws near.

**Jar Spell to Attract Luck and Prosperity**

You will need:

Amethyst (small chunks)  
1 tsp of Chamomile  
Coins  
1 tsp of Rosemary  
1 tsp of Thyme  
1 Red Candle  
Brigid’s Cross (optional)

1. Gather your ingredients.

2. This jar spell can be done when the moon is waxing or close to Imbolc (since most of the ingredients are associated with Brigid).

3. Optionally, diffuse essential oils such as chamomile, jasmine, lavender, or rosemary.

4. Light the red candle.

5. If you have Brigid’s Cross, hold it over the jar and say:

_Blessed Bríg, Lady of the Scared Flame_  
_As I burn this candle in your name,_  
_I humbly ask for your blessing of the ingredients of_ _my jar spell_  
_As the moon waxes and Imbolc draws near_,  
_may all be well_

1. First, place the coins on the bottom of the jar and say: _Coins, for prosperity._

Next, add the pieces of amethyst and say:  
_Amethyst, for a calm mind._

Third, add the chamomile and say:  
_Chamomile, for peace._

Fourth, add the rosemary and say:  
_Rosemary, for protection._

And finally, add the thyme and say:  
_Thyme, for purification._

1. Close the jar and seal it with red wax. You could try to pour the wax in the shape of Brigid’s Cross.

2. Keep the jar on your altar on your altar until the next lunar cycle, throughout the season of spring or for as long as it feels right to attract health and prosperity.

I’m very happy with this bottle 🥰

 ![IMG_20230129_164715](https://spells8s3.b-cdn.net/original/3X/2/f/2f44a432fcb5426950951f946e28510b310d1a04.jpeg)

It’s a very special and very spontaneously made self-love bottle! 😸

I started out by filling the bottle with distilled water. I added in a little bit of dried hibiscus, crushed it between my fingers to get a feel for it, used my intuition to get the amount right. I added a little bit of pink mica with silver glitter mixed in, and very fine sugar. You can see the glitter in the right lighting when you shake the bottle, it looks like moon dust 😌 🤍

I closed the bottle with a cork and some electric pink PVC bondage tape 🙈 You know, the kind that only sticks to itself. Added a pretty ribbon to tie it all together 😊

It fades and precipitates when left alone, still staying a pleasant pink color. But when you shake it up a little and take it to a source of light, it lights up and shines its magick everywhere 😘 💖

I am sorry for your loss @Francessca🫂

When I lost a child before full term, my therapist told me that the soul only needed to touch down on earth for a brief moment before moving on to the next plane of existence. That I provided it a safe, loving home while it was here. That helped me find some peace.

Blessings and love to you ❤

**Challenge entry**

I have made my first spell jar. It was cool timing as I was thinking of making sachets this past week. But I shifted to a jar for this weeks challenge.

I read through some jar spells and realized I didn’t have all the ingredients for any of them so I decided to look up the meanings of what I did have and to see what I was inspired to create.

I created a spell jar to help with letting go of the past and moving forward with gratitude and love and a deeper connection with my higher self. This is in line with the inspiration for my tattoo, sigil, and name. I feel like it is either shift or be stuck, burning away the old to make way for new. Also in line with the seasons shifting.

You don’t have to use crystals. Technically, all you need is your intention. If you don’t have a specific ingredient, you can substitute with something else that corresponds to your intention. That could be crystals, herbs, oils, incense, color, or other objects.

I would recommend one container per intention, but that’s me.

Challenge Entry

I have made a few spell jars in the past, some with moon water or water from the first snowfall. I also made a good luck and prosperity jar to gift to my sister in law at Christmas.  
For the last Mercury retrograde I made two jars (I actually just reused empty pill bottles) - one for Yin energy and the other for Yang energy. I kept them next to each other with a handmade Taijitu to lay over both. I used this to keep myself in balance.  
For my next spell jar, I plan on making the good luck and protection on my path jar from the Spells8 site.

Love your jars @Jeannie1 ! You have inspired me to start my own collection with detailed labels. Thanks!

Super cool that you used the virtual altar to create a jar @Solasta_Amore ! I like your anti anxiety jar too!! On a non magical note- when I was agoraphobic I used E J Bourne’s anxiety and phobia workbook to help me get out of my house. It is such a good workbook.

**Weekly Witchy Challenge - Witch Brews & Potions Entry**

The last two (2) challenges did not get posted on time. Both were done, I just was not organized and missed the date. So, I am going to make a conscientious effort to make sure that doesn’t happen again.

Below is a list of my Intentions to choose a spell and a potion to achieve my final outcome for Grounding my Son and Banishing Demons:  
\*\*Intentions: \*\*

1. The Spell I am using for my first intention is a Grounding Tea Spell. ([hemanicnami.tumblr.com/namis-grounding-tea](http://hemanicnami.tumblr.com/namis-grounding-tea), 16 SEP 2016) **Nami’s Grounding Tea**  
⦁ Black tea of your choice  
⦁ Cinnamon (powdered is the best)  
⦁ Sugar  
⦁ Peppermint or Rose petals (depending on which you have or prefer, i personally prefer rose petals)  
⦁ (optional) Milk or Cream

Heat your water to a temperature you enjoy drinking it at, I personally don’t get mine to the point of boiling due to sensitive teeth that don’t like heat. Pour it into your cup with the black tea and sugar placed into it. The Black tea is for energy as well as strong relations to the earth and grounding, the sugar is for more energy and attracting positive energies to yourself. Take one spoonful of rose petals/mint for divination and psychic power enhancement and put them into your tea (preferably into a tea holder or infuser of some kind). Finally add a tiny bit of milk (if you wish) and a half of spoonful of cinnamon to the top of the cup. The cinnamon is for power, energy and psychic powers and stir it clockwise (Nami, 9/16/2016)  
**NOTE** : I prefer to use tea versus coffee. It must be an intuition but I belief tea has a stronger spiritual connection over coffee.

**Reading the Tea Leaves or Coffee Grounds**  
Reading tea leaves or coffee grounds has traditionally been practiced in many countries by the women in the family, typically at gatherings of family and friends ([Fortune Telling Using Tea Leaves, Coffee Grounds.](https://www.serenapowers.com/tealeaves.html), 2016)  
⦁ Tea leaf reading is also referred to as tasseomancy, tasseography or teomancy.  
⦁ Coffee reading is known as cafeomancy.  
Tea Method  
⦁ First of all sit, down and enjoy your cup of tea. Remembering of course, that you need to make your tea the old-fashioned way using a teapot, so that you end up with a fair few tea leaves!  
⦁ You need a teacup with a wide mouth, sloping side of cups, and a plain, undecorated surface inside of cup.  
⦁ Do not strain the tea as you pour it. Many people believe you cannot read your own cup, however that is a personal preference. As with any form of divination, it is always difficult to read your own fortune objectively. (Powers, 2016)  
Remember, this is a form of divination. is to sit down, enjoy the tea,  
relax and gather your thoughts.

Before you even start the reading , there may already be  
some early signs to interpret: (Powers, 2016)

⦁ Bubbles on the surface of your tea or coffee means that money is on its way.  
⦁ If any tea leaves are floating on the surface, then visitors are imminent. The number of leaves shows how many days away they are.  
⦁ If two teaspoons are accidently placed on a saucer, then you can expect news of twins soon.  
⦁ If a teaspoon is placed upside down onto a saucer then you will hear news of the ill-health of a close relative.  
⦁ Finish your tea leaving a small amount of liquid in the bottom of cup of the cup.  
⦁ Holding the cup in your left hand, swirl the tea leaves round three times in a clockwise direction. Make sure that the remaining tea swirls around the whole of the cup.  
⦁ Then, upend the cup on the saucer and let the liquid drain away.  
Now you can examine the cup and the patterns of the tea leaves inside. As  
a general first impression, just a scattering of leaves inside the cup  
indicates a tidy mind and disciplined life. A lot of leaves indicates a rich,  
full, busy life.

First take a quick look inside the cup to see if there are any  
signs that jump out at you: (Powers, 2016)

⦁ Any distinct drops of tea or coffee that remain in the cup despite the swirling and emptying of the cup, represent tears.  
⦁ A very large clump of tea leaves indicates trouble. Near the handle - trouble caused by your own making. Opposite the handle - the trouble is not your fault.  
⦁ Tea-stalks indicate people. Long stalks indicate men. Shorter stalks indicate women. Pale or dark stalks indicate coloring. Slanted stalks indicate untrustworthy people.  
⦁ Most tea leaf readers interpret the patterns that the dark tea leaves make against the light background of the cup. However, some also read the images formed in white (seen on the cup itself), with the dark clumps of tea leaves forming the background.  
Reading the Leaves  
⦁ The cup is held so that the handle points towards the questioner. The handle represents the questioner and his or her home, and the tea leaves are read in relation to the position of the handle.  
⦁ The rim of the Cup represents recent events. Leaves lying closer to the bottom of the Cup indicate events that are more distant in time. The very bottom of the Cup represents misfortunes.  
⦁ Leaves that lie to the right of the handle indicate the future, and leaves to the left of the handle indicate the past.  
⦁ The further away the leaves lie from the handle, the further away the events are in either time or even physical distance. (Powers, 2016)  
The hardest part of this Grounding Spell was getting my son to do it with me. His girlfriend is very much into this type of ritual including Astrology, Tarot Cards, Palm Reading, The Moon and etc…Over the last few years, nonchalontly, she has been teaching and/or reading “misc topics” which helped me. I told him I needed to use him for school paper…it worked! He told me he would do this with me once a month…this will be my quality time and alone time with my son.  
Potions  
Potions, for some reason, never enter my mind to make. I was watching Charmed today and Pheebe was making a vanquishing potion to get rid of Cole because he killed a innocent. This reminded me of my “Demons”  
As per "The TravelWitch\_Bry at Spells 8, What is a Potion?:  
“A potion is a combination of ingredients and magickal intent. It can be something consumed, applied topically, added to a ritual bath, diffused into the air, or used as a spell enhancement. Potions come in as many forms and have as many properties as there are types of magick” (Bry, Spells8, 2022)  
The second Intention is a Potion to vanquish any Demon that may enter my space or my families space with the intent to harm. This Potion is from the

>
> In this article, we'll find out How to Remove a Spirit from a House by using a powerful method. We'll also share with you a few tips.

I am learning a lot about making potions and this might not be the way for me to go. Making my own Potion requires a lot of experience, knowledge and patience, all which I do not have. I am hoping by the end of this Weekly Witchy Challenge, I will have some feedback in order to learn more about Potions and Demons.  
Here is a Potion that I found on the website; [www.livejournal.com](http://www.livejournal.com), belthazor, March 14, 2006  
Potion to Vanquish an Upper Level Demon

Ingrediants

2 Cockles  
3 Crickets  
1 Pig’s Foot  
Mandrake Root  
Sprig of toadflax  
Dash of Cardamom  
Pinch of Carrot Seeds  
Strip of Elm Bark

Mix the ingredients in a pot over fire with boiling water. In theory, this should work to vanquish an upper level demon. ( Since these ingredient’s might be a little difficult to obtain, I decided to make my own Potion.  
Remove Demons from Home  
If you get notification that your, house is not safe for you then what will you do? We think you do not know but you can remove demons from home with our helping method. First we should find that our house is usually has bad environment or it has demonic environment. If your home have fleshy environment then your house affected from demonic powers. These types of home are not ordinary home because these are spiritual homes that keeping demons or evil inside the home.

If you want to remove demons from home, then please consult with spiritual prayers or discuss with our astrology specialist. ([livejournal.com](http://livejournal.com), belthazor, March 14, 2006). This surprised me, I did not put an astrology specialist together with vanquishing a Demon.  
I accualty had someone remove a Demon from me! I was sitting in front of a sink doing dishes at my friends house when out of no where, this black object as big as me, fell out of my right side. It took my breathe away for maybe 2 minuets, I could not talk and when I gasped for air, my friend asked me what just happened? When I could finally speak, I told him. That’s when he told me he threw Blessed Holy Water on me because he knew I had a Demon inside me. From that experience, I decided to come up with a potion using Blessed Holy Water for this Challenge. I went to a Church and purchased a bottle but, you can make your own. Below is an article that shows how to do this: (Rice, Jacob, Sept.6, 2016)  
How To Make (Relic) Holy Water  
⦁ Get some water. It doesn’t matter what kind (tap, purified, Brita…it’s all good).  
⦁ Put the water into a clean container (again, it doesn’t really matter what it is: flask, vase, mixing bowl, etc.)  
⦁ Drop a pinch of kosher sea salt into it.  
⦁ There are two options to finish the holy water:  
⦁ Use a holy relic like rosary, a cross, St. Benedict’s coin, another symbol with Christ;  
⦁ Recite Psalm 103.  
There are other ways and options to obtain Holy Water, here are a few: (Rice, Jacob, Sept.6, 2016)  
⦁ Saint Holy Water  
This type of holy water is found in holy wells associated with famous Catholic saints. The most famous well is in Lourdes, France. This means you’d have to travel to a well to take the holy water. Not very practical.  
⦁ Gregorian Holy Water  
This is the traditional kind of holy water. It has ashes, salt and wine as well as the holy water. It’s generally used to consecrate altars, but it would work against demons.  
\*Please note: You could also run into a strong demon, and your relic holy water won’t help. You’d need to get something stronger, holy oil. (Rice, Jacob, Sept.6, 2016)

Symbols  
The symbols and meanings that follow below can be used as a general guide when doing your readings. However, you may find that certain symbols have a particular meaning for you alone and vary from the meanings given below. Feel free to follow your own instincts when doing readings. Basically, the rule of thumb is, if it works well, then stick with it. (Powers, 2016)

There seem to be several ways, times, days, night, daytime and using colors, herbs, spices, material objects and much more when deciding to preform Magick.

Pin by Psychic Life Journey on Correspondences|Magick,Magick spells …  
Magick is very new to me and I did not think about the difference between Spells and Potions and when I should you use a spell or use a potion. The answer to that, according to Kitty @ [Otherwordlyoracle.com](http://Otherwordlyoracle.com), here is a list of the best days and times to perform Magick:  
Magical Days of the Week and Their Correspondences [Magical Days of the Week: Correspondences & Daily Energy](https://otherworldlyoracle.com/magical-days-of-the-week/) 2019, Kitty)  
Every day is magical; therefore, you can harness the energy of a specific magical day of the week instead of waiting for a planet to move or the moon to cycle.

1. Sunday Magick  
Sunday is named for…you guessed it…the Sun! So we can think of this weekday’s magick as everything related to the sun. Cast your spells and perform rituals on Sunday for the following intentions: growth, prosperity, strength, vitality, healing, opportunity, money and victory.  
Sunday’s magical correspondences:  
Magical Intentions: abundance, growth, enlightenment, strength, healing  
Crystals: citrine, sunstone, pyrite, gold, goldstone, carnelian, orange calcite, tiger’s eye, amber  
Herbs: sunflower, chamomile, calendula,  
marigold, bergamot, oak, rosemary, oregano  
Gods/Goddesses: Helios, Amaterasu, Sunna, Sulis, Ra, Bastet, Sekhmet, Freyr, Apollo, Belenos, Aurora
2. Monday Magick  
We often dread Mondays, but Monday has a special kind of magick that might make you think differently. Monday is named after the Moon. Therefore, all magick related to the moon can also be performed on a Monday! No more waiting for the right moon cycle if you have an immediate need. Cast spells and perform rituals for the following intentions: love, healing, intuition, psychic abilities, dreams, emotional balance, friendship, purification, fertility, shadow and spirit work.  
Monday’s Magical Correspondences:

Magical Intentions: intuition, dreams, shadow work, psychic abilities, emotional balance, friendship  
Crystals/Metals: silver, moonstone, pearl, fluorite, amethyst, quartz, sapphire  
Herbs: moonflower, jasmine, gardenia, white rose  
Gods/Goddesses: Thoth, Selene, Diana, Artemis, Luna, Hecate, Phoebe, Kalfu  
3. Tuesday’s Magick  
Tuesday’s name isn’t as easy to figure out. Tuesday is named after the Norse god of lightning, justice, and war – Tyr. When Tuesday rolls around, my mom and I say, Happy Tyr’s Day! Being that Tyr was a powerful god with strength and virility, the magick you perform on Tuesday should include: justice/legal issues, protection, binding, banishing, reversal, courage, power, passion, self esteem and confidence, and more. Not surprisingly, Tuesday is ruled by the planet Mars (also a god of war).  
Magical Intentions: legal matters, justice, protection, binding, banishing, reversal, courage, self confidence  
Crystals: carnelian, ruby, bloodstone, garnet, red jasper  
Herbs: dragon’s blood, nettle, thistle, thorns, wormwood, hawthorn, red flowers and plants associated with Mars  
Gods/Goddesses: Tyr, Mars, Apollo, Maeve, Bran, Ares, Valkyries, Sekhmet, K…//.ali, The Morrigan, any war or justice deity  
4. Wednesday’s Magick  
Wednesday is also a day that acquired its name from an old Norse god – Odin. In the Germanic, in particular Saxon tribes, he was also called Woten or Wodin, hence Wednes-day or Woden’s day. Odin is the All-Father in the Norse pantheon and rules wisdom, mischief, poetry, quests and the runes (among many other things). Wednesday is ruled by the planet Mercury, which rules communication and more. So, if you cast on Wednesday, it should be for one of the following intentions: communication (verbal and written), technology, cars/transportation, wisdom, clarity, spiritual growth or enlightenment, travel, psychic abilities, courage, divination (particularly the runes), and power.  
Wednesday’s Magical Correspondences:  
Magical Intentions: divination, wisdom, knowledge, education, traveling, communication, spiritual enlightenment, courage, mischief  
Crystals: Agate, citrine, aventurine, sodalite, lapis, hematite, emerald  
Herbs: lavender, rosemary, fern, cherry, licorice, poppy, mugwort, plantain, apple, fennel, chervil  
Gods/Goddesses: Odin, Mercury, Hermes  
Thursday’s Magick  
Thursday is named for one of our favorite Marvel characters and originally the Norse god of thunder – Thor. Thursday’s magick focuses on the following intentions: protection, power, male fertility, strength, purification, consecration, storm energy, and forest magick. In addition, Thursday is ruled by the planet Jupiter, which is the planet of good luck, prosperity, health, career success, leadership, politics, legal matters, etc.  
Magical Intentions: storms, legal matters, military, protection, cleansing, consecration, good luck, prosperity, career success  
Crystals/Stones: amethyst, sapphire, turquoise, lepidolite, sugilite  
Herbs: cinnamon, beech, oak, thorns, garlic, hawthorn, leek and onion, thistle  
Gods/Goddesses: Thor, Juno, Jupiter  
Friday Magick  
Friday is a magical day of the week named for one of two goddesses: Freya or Frigg. Both are Norse goddesses and it’s debated whether Friday is named after one or the other. Some say they’re the same goddess, further complicating the matter. Freya and Frigg share similar qualities, which are good intentions for Friday magick: love, motherhood, marriage, emotions, female fertility, the household, passion, beauty, war and death. Friday is ruled by the planet Venus, Venus was also a goddess of love, passion, etc. When you think of Friday think the day of LOVE and passion.  
Friday Magic Correspondences:  
Magical Intentions: love, passion, sex, home and hearth, family, motherhood, female fertility, death, beauty  
Crystals/stones: rose quartz, pink tourmaline, moonstone, jade, peridot, emerald, ruby  
Herbs: red hibiscus, rose, lavender, rosemary, jasmine, blue lotus, violet, birch, sage, ivy  
Gods/Goddesses: Freya, Frigg, Venus, Aphrodite  
Saturday Magick  
Saturday is named after the planet and god Saturn. Therefore everything Saturn rules is appropriate for magick on Saturdays including self improvement and transformation, knowledge-seeking, time, evaluating one’s personal values, banishing negativity and bad habits, etc.  
Saturday Magic Correspondences:  
Magical Intentions: knowledge, values/morals, time, banishing, self transformation, psychic defense, meditation, locating lost items or people, self defense, liberation  
Crystals/stones: onyx, obsidian, smokey quartz, jet, pumice  
Herbs: myrrh, moss, thyme, basil, hemlock, nettle, peppermint, pomegranate, hyacinth, mallow, juniper  
Gods/Goddesses: Saturn, The Norns, Oshun, Yemaya, Set, Cronus (OtherworldlyOracle, Kitty, 2019).  
In conclusion, there are a huge number of spells out there and collecting them to put in the Book Of Shadows (BOS) is an excellent idea. It will keep you organized and be able to obtain quickly. Potions seems to be more personalized according to the sistuation. For example, Demonic.

I’m making the time to go through and read everyone’s entries ❤ I apologize ahead of time if I miss yours!

* * *

> [@Garnet](#):
>
> I just found the darling bottles below, they’re shaped like mushrooms!

Oh wow, those are some super cute jars! They immediately make me think of @BryWisteria 😆 I’m glad you got to make some of your own witchy pain relieving ointment!

> [@Amaris\_Bane](#):
>
> I have just the jars for this!!

Those are beautiful jars! Oh my Gods! ~~Where did you get them?~~ Nevermind, I read farther 😆😍 I am seriously in love with them 😆 they are amazing!

> [@Melora\_Fae](#):
>
> it was these beautiful corked jars and people would fill them with mineral oil and add beautiful dried flowers

Uhh yeah, this sounds like the making of a love or romance spell if I ever did see one! I’m gonna add that to my list of things to do 😆

> [@Solasta\_Amore](#):
>
> I wonder whether normal and empty kitchen jars could be used? 🥺

Yeah, absolutely! You don’t have to have fancy jars to make a spell jar. Remember, the folk of old witchcraft would have used whatever they had available to them, and they damn sure didn’t have Amazon 😆

> [@Sarafeena\_Sage](#):
>
> If you plan on burying your bottle maybe consider using a toliet paper insert or papertowel insert.

Always a great reminder, thank you! ❤ ♻

> [@brandy20](#):
>
> These are some spell jars I made for myself and family.

Your spell jars are very cute! I’m glad you enjoyed making them for your family ❤ those are the best ones to make, in my opinion. Also, those candles you make are super cute!

> [@Francessca](#):
>
> Most likely TMI but…

Oh my, I am so sorry for your loss 🫂 I know you already know this, but you have so many people here that love and care for you ❤ I wish you all the best as you heal!

> [@Jeannie1](#):
>
> I am really excited about this challenge

Jeannie, I love that you have the correspondences listed on the labels of some of your jars. That’s super helpful when you’re in a pinch and need something quick!

> [@Cosmic\_Curiosity](#):
>
> Does that mean the jar contents stay in all year?

Depending on the ingredients, I would leave the contents in the jar all year and refresh it occasionally with energy. You can do this by holding it in your hands, blowing on it, shaking it, etc. Since it’s meant to last the whole year, that’s how I would do it.

> [@Solasta\_Amore](#):
>
> This is my Honey Jar, although I didn’t get the honey!

Oh I love that you used the virtual altar for this spell and challenge 👏 great job! 🥰 Your spell jars look amazing!

> [@kellz](#):
>
> More like messy and casual for me . Lol.

Hey, ya know what? That works just as well!

> [@yolande1](#):
>
> I have been meaning to make a witches protection bottle for a while now and so decided this would be the perfect time.

You’re right, it’s the perfect time for this! Your spell jar looks great – may it bring you and your home protection 👏

> [@Ostara](#):
>
> Weekly Witchy Challenge Entry

I love your sunflower bowl! Honestly, all of the yellow on your altar is amazing and brining me so much joy 💛 of course, it definitely correlates to your intention to bring back the sun! I love it!

> [@Ostara](#):
>
> It’s beautiful

Thank you! 🥰

> [@jill5](#):
>
> I made a love spell jar

Sounds like a great Friday night for sure! The pink wax you’ve used is really pretty, too. Great job!

> [@Solasta\_Amore](#):
>
> And that tiny little witch bottle of yours is _gorgeous_! 😇

Aww 😊 thank you!

> [@Cosmic\_Curiosity](#):
>
> Can you do them without?

You absolutely can! I would use a substitute herb or symbol that correlates with the reason the crystal is in the jar. For example, if the purpose of the crystal is to bring a calming energy, you can choose to use lavender or chamomile instead.

> [@Cosmic\_Curiosity](#):
>
> can they go in the same jar.or would they interfere with each other?

Honestly, I would use two different jars for this because if one finishes before the other, or one loses potency and needs to be recharged, it’s more difficult to do that if they are in the same jar.

> [@Kasandra](#):
>
> Jar Spell to Attract Luck and Prosperity

A beautiful spell as always, Kasandra ❤

> [@CelestiaMoon](#):
>
> It’s a very special and very spontaneously made self-love bottle! 😸

It’s beautiful! ❤ I love the way the glitter sort of swirls around in there. I think it fits you just right!

> [@Phoenix\_Rose](#):
>
> I have made my first spell jar.

You did a great job for your first ever spell jar 🥰 I love how you customized it, too. You did what you needed to do and substituted for what you didn’t have. Great job!

> [@charlotte2](#):
>
> For my next spell jar, I plan on making the good luck and protection on my path jar from the Spells8 site.

I hope it turns out well for you! 🙏

> [@Phoenix\_Rose](#):
>
> I am sure the spell inside it is big and powerful though ❤

That’s what I’m hoping for! 🤞

@Cosmic_Curiosity if you don’t have any crystals that is perfectly fine, you can substitute them with something else that you have on hand with the same intention or correspondence.

If you & you’re partner are each making spell jars, then I would say they should be separate from each other to be able to have their specific intentions in each jar or bottle.

#Challenge Entry

My choice was the self-love spell jar - and totally my first. I thought about each ingredient as I placed it into my jar frequently coming back to my intent of self-love. I did have to substitute jasmine petals for EO, and I used pink candle wax instead of the pink ribbon, and I feel good about this. Often times, we overlook ourselves in caring and nurturing others forgetting ourselves, yet commit wholly to negative self-talk when things don’t go right, or even if they do. I will be keeping my spell jar in a location where I often have those negative conversations. Blessed be💕

Thank you sweet 🥰  
The more I look at it the more I’m getting the feeling this could fit one of those “ingredients you would put together to summon me” things 😅

> [@Melora\_Fae](#):

> In the 90s I made a few bottles that I loved dearly… we used large, shaped glass bottles with a cork (my favorite was a heart), filled them with dried flowers and then baby or mineral oil. You then cork it tightly. You could easily drop candle wax over the cork as well.

Those are really beautiful 🥰  
I didn’t see your message before I sent mine but you know what they say of time and space 😄 ✨

I was thinking of some kind of inert (inorganic) oil too to make it less perishable but I just had the water at hand. It should still stay pretty for a week or two I think. 😌
