If I don’t have any herbs on hand, can
essential oils be used in their place?
Great question, @susan4!
Essential oils are the drawn-out essence of herbs, so you can absolutely use them as a substitute for fresh/dried herbs ! Just be mindful of any skin sensitivities if you handle them or use them directly on your skin, as the oils are concentrated and are quite strong
How did I miss this nice three knot chant? I was struggling with John4’s Nine knot chant … my fingers worked better when I was younger… sign… but I got it done … YEA!!!
Knot Magick is so interesting It’s not something I’ve ever done myself but I do have this friendship bracelet my son made for me on a scout camping trip 4 years ago and I haven’t taken it off in all that time
Weaved and Knotted with Love
Your son is a talented crafter, @Liisa! 4 years is an amazing amount of time for a bracelet to last! It was most definitely made with much love and care to last for so long
He’s is the more creative one in the Family, my Daughter is the sports one and I’m the Witch It was a much thicker bracelet when I first got it, I’ve had to cut away frays and re-tie it a few times over the years lol I don’t know what ill do when it finally goes? Maybe add it to one of my wands?
Oh wow- I love that idea! I think the bracelet could make a beautiful adornment on a wand when it’s time as a bracelet has come to an end
. An altar decoration or added to another display (tied around a bundle of dried herbs or flowers perhaps?) could also be good second lives for it
