Witch Crafts:  Witch Ball

Witch balls have been a part of pagan tradition for many years. Their purpose is to protect the home and its inhabitants from evil and harm.   Traditionally, you made a witch ball every year to seal fortune and protection for the next twelve months.  You can hang this ornament in a window, over a doorway, in a bedroom or even outdoors; wherever you feel it would serve its purpose the best. It would look lovely as a Christmas or Yule decoration as well!

You can purchase empty ornaments and bottles from craft stores, or re-use old light bulbs for this!  Fill it with the following:  

Sprigs of Lavender to encourage a calm, peaceful environment

Chamomile Flowers to aid in relieving anxiety

Yarrow, Roses and Rose Quartz crystals to encourage self-love and love in relationships

Jasmine Flowers to attract wealth  and sweet dreams

Cinnamon to draw happiness and  comfort

You could also include:

A seashell and a shark tooth to incorporate the magic of the sea

Curly pods (because they are so cute!)

Cloves to attract good luck and prosperity

Anise wards off the evil eye

Other tiny crystals for added energy

A bay leaf for protection

Sorry, but the whole “Hector is wearing Achilles’ own armor, taken from my corpse. It looks, almost, as if Achilles is chasing himself.” part just has me thinking… Who is Achilles truly hunting down on that battlefield? The man who killed Patroclus, or the man who let Patroclus walk into his demise? Who is Achilles trying to punish? Who is he truly trying to kill? Hector or himself?
