Low Spoons Daily Protection Tips ☁️🌙

Sometimes ya don’t have the energy to do spell work, and those are always the times you need spiritual protection the most. Life is shitty, let’s make sure it doesn’t drain you even more.

My biggest tip: Prep while you do have the spoons to do so. 🌱Especially for items that are day to day protections you’d carry with you.

Make or buy a pre-spellcrafted protection charm bag. Carry in your purse or leave in your car.

Pre-Enchant your jewelry and vails for protection. Redo the enchantment when you feel it’s done it’s job, or every 2-3 weeks.

Wear protection oils/balms that are pre-spellcrafted

Enchant skincare or makeup for protection

Layering your spiritual protection through charms, wearing oils, and other steps will ensure if one is hit, there’s a backup already in place. Having them pre spellcrafted and ready to use quickly and easily will help you not feel even more energetically drained throughout a low energy day.

Ps. If you’re looking for protection charm bags, oils and balms head over to our Etsy 😌

Raffle: Braided Crabapple Stave (CLOSED)

This raffle is for a unique Stave of braided, thorny wood that harvested from a 120+ year old Crabapple tree. It measures approximately 34 inches/86 centimeters in length and 1.5 inches/4 centimeters wide at its thickest point.

After initially acquiring the rare specimen in question, I went about curing the wood, smoothing the ends, and cleaning up some ragged branch stumps. While I usually debark pieces of this sort before working on them, the particular helical structure and profusion of thorns made me worried about being able to strip and sand the piece without damaging it. As such, I instead gave it a thin coat of handmade Dragon's Blood varnish to help stabilize and prime the wood, and then went about staining the entire piece using a polymerized oil pigment I make from Hearth Soot (Creosote) harvested from the interior of our Wood Stove. I applied layer after layer of the pigment until the bark was thoroughly coated and preserved, then used a cloth and my homemade Wisefool’s Oil (a ritually crafted oil of empowerment that also serves as a wonderful wood conditioner) to polish away the excess, before sealing the piece with my personally developed Wisefool's Glaze (a ritually empowered wood varnish made from an array of potent arboreal resins.) Finally, I gave the stave one last protective coating of polyurethane and suffumigated it with a smoke of Apple Blossoms and Dragon's Blood in a simple rite of hallowing.

While the retail price for this item is $200, I am taking the risk of setting up this raffle, in hopes that it might aid me in raising enough money to help us ease the cost of emergency surgery my dog required recently.

Tickets are $5 a piece, each assigned a number, and you can purchase up to three of them. To purchase a ticket, simply use the link below and follow the provided instructions. You will be asked to make an account and fill in your payment details, which will allow the raffle to email you your entry information, as well as automatically notifying the winner when the time comes. Participants are more than welcome to deactivate their accounts following the raffle. A random number generator will be used after ten days' time in order to determine which ticket number is the winner.

Thank you, truly and sincerely, to anyone and everyone who takes part! Please feel free to let me know if you come up against any issues! And as an aside—even if you don't end up entering the raffle, I'm sure that sharing it would still be helpful. :~)

Happy Lughnasadh :)

The C3 lady who came to kuro and gear to request from the servamps to kill the count:

Seems to be the same female head of the alicein family we saw when the two barriers meant to seal melancholy, envy and sloth were discussed:

(Which I guess should have been obvious from her flamingo walking cane, it's a reference to alice in wonderland).

After the reveal that lily was pretty much behind freaking everything else already I guess it's not really a suprise, but at least to me this sounds like he could have been the driving force behind C3's request to kill the count as well.

Edit:

Yeah, that's also her and the man with the brooch and his hair in a side ponytail...is lily:

The wand usually consists of a twig as long as the distance between the crook of the elbow and the tip of the index finger. The material used is usually obtained from trees such as apple, elder, hazel, and oak, but in other cases alternative materials such as metals, horns, or crystals are used. The wand can later be decorated with carvings and the addition of ribbons, crystals, feathers, shells, or any other natural element to add specific features to the tool. 

In some practices the use of the wand is replaced by the presence of a Stang, a staff, shoulder height in length, with a fork at the top. The wand or staff is a ritual object used since ancient times as a symbol of power. It represents the connection between heaven and earth and is often seen as a phallic symbol of power. 

In ancient times the staff was used in pastoral cultures as a tool for control, defense, and guidance of the flock, later it became a symbol of royal and religious power and guidance through the instrument of the scepter.  

Some examples of the wand or staff are the Etruscan Lituus, a staff used by Etruscan Augurs to mark out a ritual space, delineate the boundaries of territories and channel divine power. 

In Dionysian worship we find the Thyrsus or Fennel Staff, a staff topped with a pinecone and covered with fronds used during rituals to symbolize phallic and divine power.  

Another example is the Caduceus, related to the cult of Hermes and the Rod of Asclepius, both of which are represented by a staff surrounded by a serpent-like figure that recalls transmutative and regenerative power. 

The symbolism of wands and staffs are strictly connected with guidance, protection and wisdom and for those reasons it’s still used in magical rituals.

Incense cones my beloved. That's all.

My husband made me yet another amazing piece of Ritual Pottery—this time in the form of a Labyrinth Stone.

Next, I will ritually smoke the clay with an assortment of precious materials—such as Ghost Pipe, Snake Skin, Thorn Apple, and Bee Comb—before anointing the piece with my personally developed Wisefool's Oil and allowing it to bask overnight beneath the silver rays of the Full Moon. Thereafter, I will utilize it in Hedge-Crossing rites.

(While photographing, a spider walked onto the Labyrinth Stone, and I was lucky enough to capture the moment by chance!)
