Protection Spells

So, lately I've been feeling a little strange, like something has been wrong. I'm not sure where it's coming from or why, but I haven't been able to shake it. Whenever I get feelings like this one thing that I do to make myself feel better, is to do a protection spell or charm.

There are so many different types of protection spells out there, and I'm an experimental kinda witch so I've been really thinking about the kind protection spell I want to do. Some of my favorite kinds of spells to do are candle magick spells, and incantations.

Candle Magick is when you focus your intent into a candle and then burn the candle to release that intent. Some witches rub oils or herbs onto the candle to further focus what you want using the magickal purposes for those herbs and oils to further the magick. In some cases even the candle color can be used to assist with the magickal intent. I like candle magick because though it seems like an easy form of magick, it can really be an art and is very versatile.

Incantations can be even easier than candle magick. But there's more responsibility behind it, when you realize how powerful words really are. A very important thing to remember about magick is that our intent is was fuels the magick, and words are often how we express intent even in our mundane (or non magickal lives). When we say things for good or for bad they can impact the people and things around us, that's why things like daily affirmations can truly affect a person.


Charms or Talismans are physical objects that have been blessed or spelled. This is a form of magick that is pretty interesting because creating a charm or talisman takes time and effort, Some people take something they already have and bless it, others actually make the item. Sometimes special symbols are used sometimes its just a spoken spell over the item to make it work.

There are many other kinds of spells. But I think that for this I will most likely create a protection charm. I haven't made a charm before and it sounds like something that would be interesting to experiment with. I have a little statue, I am going to place a protection spell on it to have my own little guardian.
