Challenge Entry - Spell Jars & Witch Bottles

side note: I tend to forget to take pictures of things ahead of time and then later regret it after I’m done with a project

I chose to make a witch bottle for Artemis.


(Source)
I was waiting for my Mugwort to arrive and still didn’t have the right bottle… until yesterday when both my shipment arrived

and a friend brought me a large collection of small glass jars (mostly Oui yogurt jars). But there it was. The perfect bottle!

I gathered up my supplies and made my bottle. Here’s my recipe:

Materials:

    A small jar and cork
    White candle
    Moonstone and Labradorite crystals
    Dried Mugwort
    Cypress Essential oil
    White Feather
    A small piece of Silver or White Fabric
    Silver Moon Charm
    Silver permanent marker

Instructions:

    Cleanse and consecrate your jar and all the materials you will use for the spell jar by visualization of white light surrounding the materials.

    Use the marker to write "Artemis" on the outside of the jar.

    Fill the jar with the crystals, dried mugwort, and a bit of Cypress oil.

    Light the candle and hold the jar in the candlelight, charging it with your intention and energy.

    Drip candle wax along cork to seal the bottle. Recite the following words:

"Artemis, goddess of the moon and the hunt,
Protectress of wild animals and nature,
I call upon you to guide me in my path,
To bless this jar with your light and power.
May it serve as a reminder of your presence,
And bring your blessings to my life."

    Put the cork in the bottle and keep it in a safe place where you can see it everyday, such as on your altar or on your dresser. You can open the jar and add more crystals or herbs, or light a candle and hold the jar in the candlelight to recharge it.

I added a bit of fabric with the night sky (since I couldn’t fit my moon charm in the bottle opening as well as a bow and arrow charm.

I’m thrilled with how it turned out, especially for my first witch bottle.


I placed it on my new bookshelf that I’m still organizing so that is in easy view from my desk.

Too funny! This made me laugh out loud while reading it in bed :laughing: I have a box of Oi Yogurt jars in the garage, 2 boxes of small glass jars hidden in my closet, a bag of tiny bottles hiding in my desk… Everytime he smells the ammonia I use to get labels and adhesive off the bottles, he shakes his head and says, “Really? More?” :laughing:

WWC Spell Jars & Witch Bottles

I found an “inspiration for creativity” spell jar spell so that’s the one I choose for this challenge. It is by Eliza Fegley @ www.sacredspiral.com

Its the tiny-est little jar I’ve ever seen. It’s soooo cute!

I changed the ingredients up a bit to fit what I had. The original Spell goes as follows:
Ingredients:
Jar
Black Fabric
Rubber band
Orange ribbon
Orange paint
Small crystal
Dried Orange Peel (fill 2/3)
Dried Mint (fill 1/3)
2 Drops Orange essential oil
1 drop Mint essential oil
Orange candle
Add your intentions as you add each ingredient. It said to draw a spiral on the cloth with orange paint and use the rubber band to hold it on the top of the jar after the paint dries. I used a cork and orange yarn instead of the fabric.
Repeat the following 3 times:
" Creativity come to me, In whispers and Dreams, And visions that gleam."

I used tigers eye and clear quartz for my crystals, dried mint and orange peel. I said the spell 3 times as I filled the jar, then I corked it and sealed it with an orange candle. :orange_heart:

This week shook loose a memory of making a food protection salt jar I found in one of my favorite books that I unfortunately no longer have. I was able to find a download of the book and made 2 of them, then I remembered that I have food in 3 cabinets so it looks like I’ll be making another.
I’m going to try to add pictures of my process but I have no idea what I’m doing so here it goes

Thanks @Jeannie1, I am starting to get the hang of just figuring out how to do things regardless of the circumstance and keep on keeping on! It’s empowering.

There’s always excuses I figured out, so here I am doing these challenges again, excuse free and loving them again. So much love to you xo

Thank you so much for the kind words! I have to say I’m still all-a-twitter about claiming the name. It’s one of those things that when you look back, it was obvious the whole time! It makes me surprisingly so happy! I even changed my username on my computer to it as well.
