As the year quickly draws to a close, I am reminded that it is once again the time to think about shedding oneself of any emotional baggage or regrets that bind us. We need to discard old burdens, push them out. And start to realize that the coming new year brings so many opportunities. We are essentially reborn into a much happier state of being – with new goals, new ambitions, new heights of achievement to attain, as well as the resolve to see these things through. Let go and see nothing but positive for the coming new year.

Now, there are many traditions around the globe as we see this entrance into the new year, but I want to share one with you that my family has done for several years. It enables you to symbolically banish the old from your life and release it so it can burden you no more. It also adds a welcoming ritual to your celebration that will help ensure your luck in the new year to come.

First, gather up all the things that you would like to see happen in the new year. For example, if you wish for your business to succeed, grab a business card. If you need more income, grab a copy of the want ads, or job description you want – or gather up some coins or a dollar bill. Photos of your family are always a nice choice. Just grab whatever feels right.

On a piece of paper, write the following:

‘Out with the old,

In with the new,

May prosperity and fertility

Come to you

On this New Year

So it shall be.’

Fold this little petition towards you three times.

You will toss these items into a plastic zip lock bag. You can also add money-drawing herbs like bay leaves, cinnamon sticks, magnetic sand if you have some. Anything that you desire in the coming new year.

Take the bag outside of your home and hide it somewhere that you will know where to find it.

A few minutes before midnight, light a candle – any color will do. Say the following:

‘As I light this candle,

I bid the the Old Year farewell,

With gratitude for milestones passed,

And memories cherished.

And I welcome the New Year in

With love and warmth and blessings.

That the quality of this new year be assured,

I now dedicate a moment to visioning

Some ways to make this year

A year of excellence,

A year of fortune.’

Pause for a moment to envision the kind of year that you want to have and the kind of person that you want to be. Enhance these visualizations by imagining your objectives charged with energy and bathed in glowing light. Then continue:

‘And thus do my wishes for the year 
take on their own life and purpose. 
So does the year itself 
take on a glowing life and power; 
A bright year, a bold year, 
a golden year, a year of magic! 
So may this year bring luck, 
and peace, and prosperity 
to one and all.’   

From By Candlelight, by Janina Renée

Allow the candle to burn continuously, or relight it every morning to reactivate the energies of your eve celebration. Whether the candle takes a few days or a few months to burn down, you can be satisfied that its flames will radiate your blessings to last the twelve months out.

The morning of January 1, go outside and bring the zip-lock baggy inside your home. Symbolically, you will be bringing all these wonderful opportunities into your new year!

Anything written on paper in the baggy, remove and burn. Scatter the ashes to the wind.

Stay positive and focused this year, my Witches. Like attracts like… so focus on all the best things in your life – and it shall attract more.

Blessings to each of you, from the Swamp Witch & all of us at Inexplicable Things. May the new year be more prosperous than you can imagine!

When a Candle isn’t a Candle!

Conjure workers, root doctors, and Swamp Witch’s alike, use candles.
In fact, most spiritual paths use candles in some form or fashion. I won’t speak on all the other paths, but I can tell you, chere, that in Swamp Conjure, a candle is considered a tool. This particular tool is used to help focus your mind and intent on the task at hand.

candles

Now, keep in mind that in many of the traditions that are based upon the different forms of folk magick, a candle isn’t always ‘just a candle’.
As I said, candles are tools. But not all tools are created equal.
Enter the “fixed” candles.
These are magickally “fixed” candles – dressed with magickal conjure oils and then dusted with herbs or blow powders. The oils and powders add additional power that help in manifestation of your intent. These fixed candles are often hand-prepared, which helps to impart certain energies into the candle as it is created.
Miss Sha’, Swamp Witch that she is, takes hers a wee step further, and adorns them with a symbolic charm. The charms are meant to, again, focus your intent on the goal. As the candle burns, it releases the charm symbolizing attainment of this goal.
The fiixed candles created by Inexplicable Things can be made for nearly any intention – and are quite popular. We currently offer several varieties, but one of our most recent additions is a Money-Draw fixed candle that we call, ‘The Benjamins.’
money-candle-iii
Prosperity means different things to different folks. To some, it’s wealth and status. To others, it comes in the form of success and promotions. But one of the most common forms is cold hard cash. And who couldn’t use a little extra dough?
Our “Benjamins” is anointed with our #1 best-selling Money Oil, which we call Fast Cash Oil. This oil has proven quite effective when it comes to needing some extra dough for a bill, or rubbing on your last $20 bill before dropping it in a machine at your favorite casino. We have also dusted this beautiful candle with our Crown of Success Powder and just a pinch of magnetic sand. You may also find small pieces of shredded cash stuck to the candle when it arrives!
Use this candle however you see fit – but a common Swamp Conjure use is to carve your desire on the side of the candle. Write out a petition – be sure to be very specific – and place this petition under the candle as it burns. Light your candle. When the charm is released, your working is well on the way. Repeat this process, periodically, if you wish to boost the energies.

Boom! That’s all there is to it for using the fixed candles created at Inexplicable Things. Here in the swamp, we like to keep things as user-friendly as possible! Nothing fancy!
We also currently offer a Fixed Road Opener Candle, as well as a Flames of Passion Fixed Love Candle. There will be more forthcoming!

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!
