Boneset Spell (2/25/17)

The Spell (The Goodly Spellbook):

Technically to be used on another injured person; however I used it on myself and it still worked.

For most wounds, bruises, pains, etc.

Call upon Gods and Goddesses of Healing

Place a hand above the wound, rocking steadily to your own set rhythm

Imagine the pain fleeing the body.

Repeat the following as many times as you see fit (I repeated it three times, and it worked for me, but this is about you and/or the person you are healing):

This is the spell that I intone,

Flesh to flesh, and bone to bone,

Sinew to sinew, and vein to vein,

And (injured’s name) is made whole again.

Adding ‘So mote it be’ could have an effect but is not necessary(?)

Variation:

Merseburg Incantation:

Bone sprain like blood sprain like limb sprain,

Bone to bone, blood to blood, limb to limb,

like they were glued.

Adding ‘So mote it be’ could have an effect but is not necessary(?)

My Experience:

Previously, I had fallen whilst ice skating and injured myself fairly badly. Calling upon Woden, I recited the first spell three times (saying ‘So mote it be’ at the end). Within a day, the spell began to work, taking a lot of the pain off of my backside. By the time I fell asleep, there was only a minute bit of pain that didn’t effect me all that much. Being a beginner witch, I would say this spell worked fairly amazingly and went off without a hitch. Thanks be to Woden.

I made my own charms for my Traveler's Notebook! 💜🌙🌌

They were quick, and easy to make, with leftover supplies I had in my craft drawers.

The world is changing... But so is my journal. 💜

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.

Jewelry Blessings

Alright, so my relationship with my patron gods is pretty fluid- I typically burn a few things as an offering to the god that I need strength from most with a sigil that represents them. To my fellow broke bitch witches, your god knows you’re working with what you’ve got. Don’t sweat it.

Aphrodite, for example-

I mix vanilla extract and cinnamon and throw in a few rose petals, mix it all together, and throw in a ring and my earrings. I burn the sigil and let the ashes fall into the mix, say my prayer, and thank her for her time and patience.

I treat this as a glamour of sorts, and I notice my confidence is always boosted over the next few days when I wear this jewelry (after rinsing it).

Here’s the way I’ve done my worships, as someone who can’t risk having altars and a lot of wiccan material in my home-

Ares- red fabric, matches, pepper

Athena- olive leaves (or oil, but that shit is FLAMMABLE) and citrus peel (orange, tangerine, lemon, etc. )

Dionysus- dried grape peels/raisins, bread crumbs/crusts

Poseidon- salt, shells*, ginger

*just a note: in my offerings, some things don’t actually burn down to ash. Some things are just there as spiritual offerings. I typically have my offering stash in a tall bowl of some kind and toss in my burning sigil, and whatever burns, burns. Always be prepared for everything to catch fire, though.

As a baby (more like fetus) witch, I’ve learnt that taking your time in the craft is important and to not rush into it.

You have time to find what you are interested in and time to prepare yourself.

Personally I’m waiting a while before doing anything serious (even tho I’ve done 2 protection jars and sigils) and am going to work on meditation and shadow work.

It’s a lot and hopefully I’ll become the witch that I desire to be.

Reblog if you are aware you still have far to go in your craft.

Even after years of practicing, I still feel like I have only begun to scratch the surface.
