Protection - keeping yourself safe from harm
This spell is most effective when done a day after the full moon. Take a
piece of silk, some silk thread (if available) in green or pink, some herbs
of the following kind (but you don't need all): Juniper, Mugwort, Rosemary,
Basil, Horehound, Trefoil, St. John's Wort, Vervain, Mandrake and one acorn
or a twig of oak or a twig or rowan
I always feel it is best if the herbs are worked by hand but because of the
harmful properties of some of the oils of these plants, if not dried I
recommend a mortal and pestle only. Grind the herbs into a rough mixture,
they do not need to be too fine.
Prepare you room or space for this protective working. If this is to be
personal, the amount of herbs need only be small but preparation more
extensive. If this is to protect a house, boat, car, etc. then more herbs
are needed and a further ritual but quick and benign looking ritual needs
to be performed.
Personal - Prepare your altar. Draw a bath to the temperature you prefer.
In this bath, use some purification, exorcism or dragon's blood bath salts
. While you bathe, feel the protection water gives begin to seep into
yourself. Then feel the protection earth gives through the salts seep into
your very bones. When finished the bath, dry yourself and anoint yourself
with some oil containing rosemary, geranium, or frankincense.
Light a charcoal briquette and burn as incense some frankincense, myrrh, or
dragon's blood. While the smoke curls, create the sachet! Place the herbs
in the cloth and sew the sides together as best as you can to prevent the
substance leaking. Now while you sew it together, chant out loud or
silently "I bind this charm to protect me well". Once done, face each
direction and say "Element of the empower my charm to protect
me against all harm." Then when you return to the east say "I have created
this charm to protect me against all harm. It's power has been created and
now let it's work be done.". Now keep this charm on you at all times!
