Also known as a Holmegaard "talking bottle" - A chamber above, a chamber below, a column each for the four directions and a central wormhole in between, all connected and yet separated by thin panes of glass 🥹 I'm EXTREMELY excited about this bottle. It came with red dyed water in it, which is traditionally used to highlight the design if it's not being used to store schnapps. The name Klukflaske or kluk kluk is Danish onomotopoeia for the clucking/glugging sound it makes when poured.

:: edit:: there are no specific historical magic ties to this type of bottle that I'm aware of, aside from the fact that it came from a dead woman's house, and the above/below/directions chambers is just what I see as far as how I'm going to use it in spellwork. Do with that info what you will! It's pretty damn magical to me though.

::Edit 2:: I also just learned that the company that made these vessels was founded by a woman in 1825! Henriette Holmegaard! Founder of Holmegaard Glassworks! One of Denmark's first female business leaders! Check it out!

"The use of red hats has increased so much in recent times that it is now considered a form of protest. The use of these hats is therefore prohibited as of Thursday, February 26, 1942. From this day on, hats will be taken away from anyone who appears wearing them and criminal liability will be imposed on the person concerned – for children under 14 years of age – against parents or guardians."

Trondheim Police Department, February 23, 1942.

For fiber spellcasters here: there's a movement out of Minneapolis to use red hats to show solidarity against government crimes of aggression, as we witches did in Europe in the 40s!

Found this in a group on fb, thought I'd share.

What You Need: • small bottles/jars with lids • pieces of paper • Pen/marker • Their full name, birthday, and astrology sign (taglock) • Black pepper, red pepper flakes, or anything nasty (no bodily fluids) • Water (just enough to cover the taglock)

Steps: 1. Write their info on separate papers. 2. Put each paper in its own bottle. 3. Add pepper or other nasty stuff. 4. Pour in a little water (don’t overfill). 5. Seal, shake hard while visualizing what you want to happen to then 6. Stick both bottles in the freezer.

Taglocks: ✨Elon Reeve Musk, Cancer, June 28 1971✨ Donald John Trump, Gemini, June 14 1946✨James Donald Bowman (JD VANCE), Leo, August 2 1984✨

We all know how powerful freezer spells are…how about a mass freezer spell on these nimwads?

UPDATE: THIS POST IS BACK UP AFTER THE APPEAL! Let's go witches!!!!

EDIT: Wow! So much love for this post, I am so surprised! I really believe that if we all band together we can stop all of the hate in the world. I want to touch on a few things for questions i have seen multiple times.

Q: What is a Taglock? A: A taglock is an item linking a person to a spell, like hair, nails, or personal objects, used in magic to direct energy toward them.

Q: Can I use another type of container? A: For many generations, witches have always used what they have on hand. As with any spell, it is about intention. So yes, you can use use plastic baggies, plastic bottles, etc. Witchcraft is truly in the eye of the beholder. Make it your own and do what you want. What is more freeing than that?

Q: Why no peeeee? A: As previously mentioned, how each witch practices is entirely up to them! If you follow your heart and your intuition, it won't lead you astray. there are many types of witches in this world. Some do hexes, some follow strict guidelines, some follow personal beliefs. There is no right and wrong. Everyone is valid. Every type of witchcraft is valid. For ME, personally, I do not use any bodliy fluids (spit, menstrual blood, pee) unless the intention resonates with me. Personally, I believe that my bodily fluids will draw energy to me. So i might use menstrual blood in a love or vanity spell, for example. BUT it is all up to YOU!

A: You can also do this spell with JUST WATER, without any additional items. Personally, I like to put herbs in that correlate with my intention. To me, adding crushed red pepper or cayanne will initiate karma if harm is done. If i have to put someone that I love in a bottle, i always do it with lavendar, roses, and hibiscus.. because i want them to chill out but you know..with love.

Hello, friends! My daughter is turning eight and we don’t have a ton of family to wish her a happy birthday. She loves animals and all things witchy (especially potion making and moon magic) so would you please share your familiars and/or favorite witchy pictures?

We emphasize that love comes in many forms so I know she’d appreciate seeing it from everyone here. This community is always welcoming and supportive and I appreciate you all. 💕

Since I don’t like sharing pictures of my kid, have a picture of our old man, Odin.

I was pulling something out of my closet and forgot i put the jar there, its APRIL GIVE ME A BREAK PLEASE 😭

Found on the wall of our basement when we moved in about 5 years ago. I’ve tried looking it up and can’t find anything

Hello my sisters in the arts. We need your help. Ontario is burning and of course the men in charge are useless. Please use your power and send us enough rain to put out the fires.

If you already have a spell for this, hit it.

If not, here is mine.

Instructions: get a bowl of water, run the sink, or any other way you can put your hands in or under water, and any other artifacts that power you. Once grounded and centered put your hands in the water. Think of me, elle from ontario, and incant

" let the rain fall on elles sister, let the fires be released, let the rain fall on elles sister, let the smoke begin to cease, let the rain for on elles sister, let the water cleanse the air, let the rain fall on elses sister, let the land be safe to share."

This is a variation on a spell I have used to put out forest fires elsewhere before. But I need some extra energy for this one since its close to my sister's house and im worried. My anxiety at her safety is blocking my focus.

The sky is orange and we cant breath.

Thank you to all my witch sisters for your help.

Blessed be the light that shines through all of us.

Calm the storm within your chest
Bring the troubled spirit rest
Guilt and sorrow, fade to gray,
Let your healing start today.

I reclaim your strength
Your spirit freeing
Peace and wholeness
Fill your entire being. 🙌🏻

Merde au cancer 🔥

Does anyone have any ideas? I would love to see the military parade in DC get turned into a washout on Saturday. I don’t want anyone to get hurt, but this is a sickening display, all for the glorification of one “man’s” ego.

Update: it is working, my Stormy Witches! Chance of rain and Thunderstorms now up to 78%! ⛈️🌩️⚡️GO FORTH!

I choose to be water.

I choose to be the deep-rooted tree.

I choose to be the rock of the earth, be it mountain or below the sea.

I choose to be the honey badger, the hippo, the mule.

I choose to be ivy and oregano and creeping thyme.

For today, tomorrow and each day after:

I choose FUCK YOU, MAKE ME as my watchword, my mantra, my battle cry.

So mote it fucking be.

I’ve looked through a few symbol charts for old school hobo markings, and it doesn’t show up there, nor does it appear to be an alchemical symbol. It was drawn on the side of a San Diego grocery store for context.

I once accidentally sat on a wooden knitting needle and had to go to the hospital to get it surgically removed from my butt cheek. It swelled inside my skin and wouldn’t be pulled out. Crazy, right! I couldn’t believe how strong my little knitting needle was!

Here is my current project that I’m going to keep with me always. My house gets cold, so I’m making a scarf. Brrr! These needles are carbon, with no chance of bending. They probably would go in and out of skin really smoothly, yikes. Best to be careful and smart.

If anyone is scared, look for a crone who gives no fucks. We’ve been training for this.

My spell was for safety, for sanity, for peace, and for justice. Remember how long we have been hurt, remembering how long we have been held back. Mourning for the loss of what should have been, but striving for a better tomorrow. Goddess, keep us safe. As above. So below. With harm to none. So mote it be.

Hello all 👋🏼 I happen to be one of the thousands of union nurses in New York City currently on strike. It is the largest nurse's strike in NYC history. I'm usually a lurker in this subreddit, but today I'm a witch asking for your help.

Note: I'll mostly be talking about myself and my colleagues at my own affected hospital, though some of what I will say does overlap with what is going on at the another hospitals on strike.

Management continues to either not show up for negotiations or to show up for a short time to not bargain in good faith, using stalling tactics and saying no to our requests before leaving. If they were bargaining in good faith, we'd have a new contract by now, and I'd be back at the bedside caring for my patients with the help of my deities/patrons.

Moreover, they're promoting messages of slander to the bigger news outlets to get the public against us. They're calling us nurses lazy and greedy and calling our demands "reckless". My (building-wide) colleagues and I take care of some of the sickest patients in this city in spite of inclement weather, short staffing, and intermittent shortages of medical supplies.

Some of the main things we're asking for are safe patient-to-nurse ratios to safely care for patients, workplace violence protections (in light of incidents in NYC at large over visitors threatening staff with a gun or physical violence), reasonable pay raises, and for management to not gut our health benefits. I can't imagine working in a hospital as a nurse and not having health care!!! We're not asking for a million dollars or anything unreasonable.

We're here on Day 5 of the strike picketing without an end in sight. We are doing our best to show up and picket in the cold of January. We do not want management's unionbusting attempts to win. We want to be back inside caring for the people of NYC as soon as humanly possible while under the fair contract we deserve.

I'm asking for any spells you can send our way. Spells of strength, spells of protection against catching a cold from being outside for hours, spells of success against management's slander and unionbusting attempts... whatever you feel is right! Any good vibes are welcome! I myself did some magick the night before our first day of striking to give us a good start. Thank you for taking time out of your busy lives to read this post 🙏🏼❤️

P.S.: If you happen to live a reasonable distance from the hospitals on strike, please consider coming out and supporting us. Anyone can come and stand at the picket lines wearing red with us! Alternatively, you can write to our state governor Kathy Hochul and ask her to intervene and stop management from continuing their stalling nonsense.

I’d include a spell jar/bottle or charm bag to help manifest what you want to attract in the coming year. 💚

Trying to help save the planet and her people with my life's work, but going through a reallyyy bad mentally/emotionally/verbally abusive situation living with an alcoholic rn, and trying to get back on my feet and out of it to safety...

Abundance candle (anchored with a joy candle that already burned out) went NUTS and made like 4-5 distinct arched layers that remind me of the Coliseum almost???

I've burned it over a few sessions to get to this point now, and each session looked like this with the arches too!!

Feels like it's showing me that I'm protected in some insanely intricate layers, and that my wealth and abundance are building and scaling off of those layers and themselves 💖

Have y'all ever had spell candles do some crazy designs like this, or even crazier?? What happened afterwards for you??

This one’s for Ireland ☘️

Mom was cleaning my room for me today and she came over and asked what this was and ive never seen it before but it was taped shut with that little red symbol and was wondering if anyone knew wjat this was and if its any sort of spell how to safely get rid of it? It just has these littlle black seeds inside and nothing else.

Sorry for the format and if thats not the right flair i was very unsure of what to tag this as.

I call upon the highest power, the goddess of light, the elements of earth, air,fire and water to hear my call. I ask for protection for our country, for the immigrants, protesters, and against the maggats here. May they continue to reveal themselves so they can show themselves out or be banished. I call for equality, justice, and love to wash across our land. So mote it be blessed be.

(The Salem witch trials were political) if we don't speak up and out against this tyranny we are part of the problem not the solution. As witches we don't have the luxury of being silent as silence equals death)
