Self-love jar spell!
I made a self-love jar spell design! It has a rose quartz, rose petals, cinnamon, lavender and rosemary in it! Sealed with pink wax and full of good intent. You can buy stickers and more of that design on my Redbubble!
Beware the Curse of the Golden Dildo!
mood spell jars
hey y’all, your resident eclectic with here with a quick tip on easy-to-do spell jars!
I personally live in a dorm situation nine months out of the and try to keep my shit pretty lowkey for my roommates sake, so I keep four elemental mood jars in little mason jars in one of my drawers. Whenever I feel funky, out of alignment, off-mood, or just need a little pep, I mix the corresponding jar and say a little prayer and thank you before I start my day. The contents of these jars were inspired by an elemental post made by stargvsm! Please see their post for more ideas, as my jars really contain the bare minimum to convey intent.
Earth- For grounding, strength, healing
Contents: dried moss, crushed pine cone, wheat, crushed lead, salt, patchouli essential oil, jar is decorated with sigils for Venus and Saturn
Air- For clarity, inspiration, intuition, memory
Contents: feathers, lavender, lemon peel, clover, yellow fabric, soda can tabs, incense ashes, jar is decorates with sigils for Mercury and Uranus
Water- For emotion, release, reflection, growth
Contents: silver coins, sand, chamomile, mint, river stones, sea glass, jar is decorated with sigils of Neptune and Pluto
Fire- For energy, courage, passion, confidence
Contents: candle wax, basil, cinnamon, red pepper flakes, garnet necklace, gold coin, jar is decorated with sigils for Mars and Jupiter
My planet associations are based on the zodiac, go with whatever works best for you! I put soda can tabs in my air jar because I associate aluminum with air, but I know some people prefer tin. It’s all about what you feel best represents the relationship you have with worship- there’s no right or wrong contents.
For prayer, honestly, sometimes I just put my head on my desk and swirl the jar and talk out loud like I’m asking an old friend for advice. I talk abut my day, why I feel the way I do, and what I want to change about how I feel, and ask my patrons for their guidance. Blessed be, y’all have fun and stay safe
Spell Jar Basics: Creating and Tailor-Making Your Own Spell Bottles & Jars
(Hello again, everyone! I’m back after a long hiatus - it feels good to be witching again!)
Spell jars are a great and easily modifiable way to do “slow-cooker” magic-stuff that doesn’t require a lot of active participation time, but the combined result is just as - if not more-potent.
THE COMPONENTS: THE JAR
You’ll need a jar, first of all - the size and shape of which should correspond to your intent, ideally. For smaller,”single-burner” spells, you might want a small, corked bottle you can balance a spell candle on. If you were to make a witches’ bottle for protection, you’d want something a little bigger, to hold all the ingredients, and probably something in an amber or other more opaque tone, so you can’t see inside.
Ideally, your jar or bottle would have a lid, for various spell-mechanics purposes-using the jar as a sealant, keeping the contents together while you shake it, and so on.
FILLING THE JAR
Next, you’ll need the components for the “spell” part. Assemble harmonious ingredients that are correspondent to your intent - for instance, if I were to assemble a spell bottle for balance, I’d try to grab some herbs and reagents correspondent to my intent (coriander, sea salt, and so forth), that are mostly yellow (the color I correspond with balance), and, perhaps, keep it down to 5 ingredients, which is the number I correspond with balance.
Fill the jar or bottle with these ingredients-this is you doing the prep work for your spell! If you intend to shake the contents to reactivate them every so often, for instance, you’d want to leave a bit of room at the top.
You might want to add some extra oomph to your jar for more heavy-duty spells, like tying correspondent ribbon around the jar, or inscribing a sigil or planetary symbol on it.
CASTING THE SPELL
Now that your spell preparations are complete, you’ll need to pick a good time to perform your spell, and choose a way to “activate” it - that is, a spell mechanic to set your intent in motion and do the actual “casting”.
For timing, you’ll want to pick something that,again, corresponds with your intent: You can use the waxing and waning tides of the moon to draw or remove something from your life, use sunsets and sunrises for manifestation and banishment, cast at high noon for an elemental fire influence, or on a clear, dark night for an honorary jar for Nyx - do a little research and listen to your gut!
As for the casting, you have a number of ways to go about it. Here are a couple of popular methods you can pick, mix, and match (but remember, you can always invent a more appropriate method for your own spell!):
Sealing with a Candle: An effective way to complete and cast your spell, with the added bonus of sealing in the contents of your jar for permanent magick. Choose the color of your candle according to your intent, inscribe it with a rune or sigil, anoint it with oil, or/and customize it in any way you see fit to correspond it with your intent and with the contents of the jar. Burn the whole candle at once to cast a spell in one go, or light the candle a little bit every night during the waxing or waning moon to draw or rid, respectively.
Burying the Jar: For spells involving the earth, staking a claim on your own property, magic you don’t want to reverse, or jars honoring cthonic spirits, bury your jar in the dirt, whether it’s in your yard or in a container.
Reversible Spells: Leave the jar’s lid or cork unsealed by wax, but firmly pressed on, perhaps with a string or ribbon to seal the magic in instead. If you ever have need to reverse the spell, you can open up the jar, safely unenchant and dispose of its contents, and clean out the jar with salt and water for later.
Recastable Spells: Leave a generous portion of room in your jar or bottle before sealing, and give it a vigorous shake when you want to re-cast.
Now go forth, and cast!
If you do make any spell jars, I totally want to see them! :>
PSA:
Tackle boxes make great storage options for spices, herbs, and small stones and candles. They’re way cheaper and easier to find than a solid mahogany box with built in shelves and all the works. I find that they get less attention from nosy folks, and they usually have handles and are pretty easy to travel with.
Other ideas could include old sewing kits, toolboxes, or jewelry boxes. The tackle box is my personal favorite because they’re usually larger and have more compartments, but that’s just me. Blessed be.

Cleanse your space well and layer the ingredients in the bottle, focusing on the intent of each one. Now some of these are more personal and can vary for different people, e.g. I used desert sage because it grows wild here. Maybe you hate mint, if so then don't use it. Etc. Put the candle in the bottle and light it any time you need to clear your brain fog or make a tough decision.
I don't have an incantation for this one because I typically don't use them. Instead I use bells (pictured) or some other instrument to raise the energy and bring everything together. In this case I rang the bells over the bottle, focused on their ring, and let the sound gradually fade, then focused on the silence.
I feel like selenite works be a good addition, I just didn't have any extra on hand.
Do you remember your first spell!?
Lately, it feels like I’m walking through a fog—one that settles in my bones the second I step into work. I’m usually bright. Thoughtful. A little intense. A little weird. The kind of girl who sees too much, feels too much. A Virgo to the core—structured but soft, always trying to make sense of everything. I dream of harmony, of people who treat each other with care. I crave a kind of calm that lets me breathe.
But at work, I feel like shit.
It’s not the job—it’s the atmosphere. I clean. It should be simple, even peaceful. But the energy is heavy. Tense. Paranoid. I feel watched, like every step is judged. Like my silence speaks louder than it should. I thought this place would understand—that I’m in school, that I have a family, that I’m doing my best. But no. When I ask for a day off, I’m treated like I’ve done something wrong. Like my life outside of work is an inconvenience to them.
And I hate who I am there.
I shrink. I doubt myself. I flinch at simple questions like “how are you?” I’m too emotional, too soft, too scared of saying the wrong thing. My voice gets caught in my throat, and I become someone I don’t even recognize—someone who watches from the sidelines, instead of standing up.
But that’s not who I want to be.
I want to be clever. I want to be bold. I want to be the girl who raises her head, lifts her sword, and walks into battle like a storm they never saw coming. I want to be brave enough not to care who hates me. I want to stop trying to make everyone comfortable. I want to stop apologizing for being alive, for taking up space, for needing time, for having a voice.
I want to stand on my own two feet and not shake. I want to look people in the eye and not flinch. I want the strength to let people’s opinions bounce off me like arrows off armor. I want to weld my sword up high—my voice, my truth, my presence—and see them coward at the sight of someone who knows who they are.
I want to be the kind of woman doubt doesn’t dare to approach.
But how do I become her?
Right now, I hide in my mind to survive. I drift. I dream. While I clean, I disappear into other worlds—places where I matter, where I fight dragons and win. Places where my softness is power, not weakness. I imagine sunlight through trees, pages turning, hands that build, voices that lift. I lose myself in stories, music, moments that keep me afloat when reality makes me feel like I’m drowning.
Because the stress here—it's thick, like smoke. It taints people. It steals kindness. And I feel it trying to steal me.
But I won’t let it.
Somewhere in me, I know she exists—the girl with the sword. The girl who doesn’t beg to be heard—she commands it. The girl who isn’t afraid to be seen, even if being seen means being misunderstood. I want to become her. I will become her.
This place may try to bury me, but I’m not soil. I am fire. I am wind. I am something they cannot contain.
Hello,
I wouldn’t quite call myself a witch, but I hold a deep respect and quiet love for the energy, intention, and time that the path requires. There’s something sacred in the way witches move through the world—with awareness, with reverence—and I often find myself drawn to that rhythm.
I’d say I’m spiritual, though I’m still figuring out what that means for me. I meditate, practice shadow work, visualize, and try to learn from the plants and herbs around me. I’m curious about things like numerology, even if I’ve been told to take it lightly—it still speaks to something inside me. I find signs in nature, patterns in the world, and meaning in small moments.
More than anything, I’m trying to understand myself—who I am, what I’m becoming, and how to walk through this life with purpose. I talk to trees. I listen to the wind. I feel the pull of the moon, and sometimes, I just sit with the earth and breathe. These moments feel like home, even if I can’t quite explain why.
Still, I don’t fully know what I am. I feel like I’m in-between, on the edge of something I can’t yet name. I’ve been quietly seeking—a community, a circle, a place where I can speak openly about the things I’m drawn to. I want to ask questions without judgment, share stories, learn from others, and maybe begin to understand what my path could be.
If anything, I want to belong—to something deeper, older, and more honest. I want to grow, step by step, into whoever I’m meant to become.

Inktober Day 4: “Spell”
This one was actually really fun to do!
( Emoji Spells: Mobile Sigil Magick) Sigil magick is popular because it’s fairly simple and still creative. When creating a sigil from scratch you get to decide everything about what it means and how it looks. The difference with emoji is that you have to look at the entire spell as a sigil, rather than each individual character. You also have to concede some of the design, but for those without any artistic skill this could be a big bonus. Modern usage of the sigil is as a pictorial representation of the will or intent of your spell.The sigil represents the whole of the spell and drawing the sigil out, and then carving it on candles or burning it charges and activates your sigil. Sigils can also function like a visual affirmation when drawn on mirrors, windows, post its, on your leg in sharpie, the tag on your underpants, whatever!
