Wearable Study Bottle

Back to school means lots of stress, and even more exams. It's important to study all the time as much as you can, and this wearable* spell bottle is a neat little way to help increase your productivity.

* does not have to be worn, can be carried as usual

What you need:

The spell:

Small jar, preferably glass and corked

Sage // wisdom, mental clarity

Cinnamon // success, increased mental energy

Ginger // power booster, energy boost

Irish moss // luck

Chamomile // stress relief

Peppermint // mental clarity, success

Lemon balm // success

Lemon peel // energy booster!

Elderberry // power boost

Heather // protection, luck

Wearable charm:

Eye pin

Jump ring

Necklace/something you want to put the charm on (a second one I did, which I'll post later, is a protection charm for my keys)

What you do:

If you're going to make it wearable:

Poke your eye pin through the cork top, and bend the excess back into the cork (like a j going through the cork)

Glue the eye pin to the cork, so there's no way it can come off and break

Connect a jump ring to the eye, so now you have a way to connect your charm to whatever you want it to hang off of

Take wax or super glue, and seal shut 🖤

As you can see, I didn't have an eye pin or a jump ring, so I bent a few sewing pins using jewelry pliars into the shape I needed

For the bottle:

Layer your herbs inside the bottle, it do esn't matter what order 😊

I'm not a photographer, but I think you get the point 😊🖤

This is it when it's done.

Please remember that this will not work if you don't study. Magic can only boost, it won't make you pass the exam if you don't do the work. Happy school year!

I embrace the idea of life and death for I am not the one in charge of my fate. The gods have already written my story. Victory or Valhalla.

ok maybe this is kind of a stupid question, but do you have any advice for researching and how to determine if the witchcraft information youre reading is valid? like i know the whole look up other resources about that to compare, but like if they do say different things how do i know which is right? or if either is right? (its probably a common sense answer and ive just worked myself up too much to figure it out 😅) but like any advice or tips you have for researching would be appreciated!

I was just thinking hm how have I not got any anons in days? That's a shame and here you are with a spectacular question! I've been waiting for this one.

Best tip, think critically and ask yourself questions like:

What are the qualifications, motives and biases of the person giving me this information?

Who recommended this source?

Is anything they're implying or advising here a threat to my or someone else's safety or health?

Does this line up with other things I know to be true? Like science, other factors about witchcraft, your beliefs, ect. Beliefs won't dictate fact but often in witchcraft personal belief is the only thing that will sway you towards one answer or another.

Does it make sense? Like logically does it make sense to you?

Why? Just ask yourself why. Ask them why. Ask them for sources or an explanation.

Have I seen someone say this before? How often? Apply the above questions to that source(s) as well.

Here are all my other general research tips:

Take time to take things with a grain of salt. Try not to categorize them as right or wrong until you're absolutely sure. Take time to dive into topics, there's no rush.

Understand that many things are up to personal belief and for many questions the answer will be "Depends on the witch." Both answers might be correct.

Cross reference everything you find. The answer you see the most is likely right.

Check out the library.

Use books that aren't marketed as being about witchcraft or the occult. Folklore, local flora and fauna, nature, botany, gardening, foraging, geology, these are all useful subjects. 

Don't worry about making a fancy grimoire or book of shadows or having all the correspondences in the world written out. That's the least of your worries, take notes on the essentials and things that interest you personally. Some things to include are the subject, date & source of what you're reading.

Ask real, experienced witches. Do not rely on them as your soul mentor and ideally and contact multiple witches or groups.

Let's use an example for your issue, so you can see how these will apply. Let's say you're looking into cursing and you see someone say no witches curse because of the rule of three. If you keep looking and talk to real witches you will soon come across witches who curse and such. Witches who don't believe in the rule of three. How is that logical if the rule of three is always right? If you question that person's influences, you will find their motive is pushing a belief on someone, and not your best interests. If you ask that and they had your best interests at heart they would say some witches curse and some don't and that any personal choice in relation to that is valid. So you see then you've identified their motive, and you know you can decide to curse or not to curse. Let's use another example because although the whole "depends on the witch" thing is often the answer sometimes but it's not. New example, let's say you're looking into opening your witchy senses. Intuition, sensitivity, that kind of stuff. You see someone say that taking medication like anti depressants is going to dull that. It's going to dull all your spiritual senses. You might want to say that that's just the person's belief, and you can decide, because that's so often what is true. Let me tell you why it's not though, refer to the above. That person once again does not have your best interests at heart, what they're saying does not line up with other things you know to be true, like science, or professional medical advice. It is also a threat to your safety and well being. Objectively wrong and harmful. The difference with the above is it's not harmful as long as they don't push the idea, just personal preference. Cross reference like you mentioned, the answer you see the most is likely right. Be sure to follow the tips above. Sometimes it just takes time and you will look back with more information and experience and the answer will be clear. Ask yourself questions. Talk to real life witches. You'll figure it out. Good luck on your path 💖
