December 24th – Celtic Birch Moon

Today begins the Celtic New Year – the month of the Birch Moon – which just happens to be the perfect time for new beginnings and making plans for the future. As we draw closer and closer to the end of our regularly observed calendar year, we are ever closer to the beginning of the next.

The Birch Moon begins just after Yule and runs through most of January. Yule is the marked as the shortest day of the year – so the Birch Moon was rejoiced as this begins the period when the daylight hours begin to increase over the hours of darkness. The Birch tree itself is usually the first tree to grow back after a forest has been cut – this only reinforces it’s association with new beginnings. This tree is one of extreme hardiness and will easily thrive in places where Oaks and others cannot. This is the perfect tree for ‘sticking to your guns’ with your New Years Resolutions.

It falls into a “quiet time” which is considered the bleakest time of the year – a great time for reflection and introspection. I generally like to spend a great deal of time in contemplation over the things that occurred in my life during the past year, as well as looking ahead to the future and starting to make plans for the year ahead – hence the term of New Year’s Resolutions.

The following is spell that I have worked for myself, as well as for a few clients. I have also successfully set lights for clients during this time of year for them to realize their resolutions.

Resolution Blessing Spell

Go for a walk outside – collect a birch branch or twig, if you can locate one. They often grow in very urban areas such as parks, nature trails, etc.

When you return home, take a few drops of rose, frankincense or benzoin oil and rub them into the palm of your hand. Annoint a red candle with the oil.

Light the candle and stand in front of it for a few moments – thinking about your resolutions. If you are planning to learn something, see yourself having already learned the task and performing it well – no matter what it is. State your intent – ‘I will write a novel’ or ‘I will learn to sky jump’ whatever it is.

Hold the birch twig at one end and pass it through the candle flames. Turn it around and draw a circle around you in the air – this bind you to the spell.

Repeat your incantation about learning the new task.

Sit down, relax, and visualize yourself performing the task perfectly, time and time again.  When you are finished, extinguish the candle.

Prosperity 101

This time of year, I think we could all use a little extra financial boost.

This is just a little collection of prosperity boosting spells and root work that I have complied. The list includes only those spells that I have performed for clients, for myself, or that I have first-hand knowledge of someone using.

If anyone would like for me to perform a setting of lights or any candle work for them, please feel free to contact me directly. I will provide you with photos of before, during and after – as well as a detailed description of what I saw during the working, and finally, you will receive a packet/mojo of left over candle wax, herbs, and curios with complete instructions on what course of action to take next.

Setting candles

On a piece of paper, write down the money troubles you are having. Then chant to yourself for these problems to be resolved and to eventually disappear completely, from your life. Burn the paper.


Carry fresh mint leaves in your wallet or checkbook. The leaves will be more powerful if you can wrap them around a silver dollar coin.


Money Oil recipe

3 parts ginger

2 parts orange

4 parts pine

2 parts cinnamon

½ part chamomile

1 part cedar

Shake well. Decant into a small bottle. Blend in a wheat germ base and orange blossoms and pine needles. Allow to stand for 3 days.


Wealth Spell – using Coltsfoot

For wealth and prosperity for the coming New Year, take a husk from an ear of corn and put a dollar bill inside. Also place a hand written note on a piece of brown paper sack. On the paper, write something like:

Gods of luck

Money is like muck

Not good except to be spread.

Spread some of it (write your address)

Thanks be to the thee.

Sign your name.

Sprinkle the dollar bill and note with Coltsfoot leaves. Roll the husk up and tie together with green string or ribbon. Hang the token above the entryway of your home with a green cord or string. This husk should bring riches into your home or business!


To find money, one should make a conjure bag containing a small horseshoe and lodestone to attract and draw wealth to you. Add Smartweed to the bag – this will enable you to see how to capture the money you seek and hold onto it without being led astray by unprofitable distractions or foolish delays. Feed your conjure bag with a sprinkle of magnetic sand every third day until you find the amount of money you need. Do not be greedy!


Sprinkle cinnamon on your money before you spend it.

Always hand dollar bills out folded in half.

Before shopping, envision that whatever you spend comes back to your several times over.

Every day, drop a penny in a jar and say

“My life is filled with abundance. And all my needs are met.”

Place mint in with your money to make it grow.

Keep an organic, unshelled almond in your purse or wallet – wrapped in a small piece of green cloth. You will always have enough money.


Knot Spell for money

While tying 9 knots in a green, 13” silk cord or ribbon, say

By knot of one, my spell’s begun

By knot of two, plenty fruitful work to do

By knot of three, money comes to me

By knot of four, opportunity knocks at my door

By knot of five, my business thrives

By knot of six, this spell is fixed

By knot of seven, success is given

By knot of eight, increase is great

By knot of nine, these things are mine

Keep the knotted cord in a safe place until things turn around for you financially. Then dispose of it, by burial – DO NOT untie the knots.


I have a large variety of spells and root work to pull from. Some passed down for generations. My services have been requested by many – with great success. Again, if you would like for Inexplicable Things to set lights for you, or perform any candle work, simply contact me. I will have a few questions to ask before we begin.

Good luck in your quests – and may prosperity find you in the coming New Year!
