Charm Ball


The charm ball that you make represents your
new self with all its dreams and aspirations.
Each year, as you replace it with a new one, it
then becomes a representation of the troubles
and difficulties of the previous year. It is similar
to the Sun Wheel used during the Sabbat

performed at Litha. You burn the old one on a
bonfire of straw, ash twigs and acorns (see ash
and oak above and below).
YOU WILL NEED
Hawthorn twigs
White ribbon
METHOD
✤ As you fashion and weave the ball by
bending and interlocking the twigs, visualize
what you want for you and yours, and how
you wish the coming year to be.
✤ Finish it off by tying it with the white ribbon.
✤ Hang it in a window or doorway

A Love Charm


YOU WILL NEED
Strips of birch bark gathered at the New Moon
Red ink and pen
Love Incense 6 (on page 60)
METHOD
✤ Write on the birch strip
Bring me true love
✤ Burn the strip along with the incense and say:
Goddess of love, God of desire,
Bring to me sweet passion’s fire.
✤ Alternatively, cast the bark into a stream or
other flowing water, saying:

Message of love, I set you free,
to capture a love and return to me.

Antler Charm


YOU WILL NEED
Piece of deer’s antler
Hair from a black mare’s tail
Silver tip for the antler
Cairngorm stone (a type of smoky quartz)
METHOD
✤ Wind the horsehair around one end of the
antler at least nine times.
✤ Fix the silver tip to the antler. This ensures
that there is a balance of male and female
energy, which repels the evil eye.
✤ If you wish to make your own jewellery, the
gemstone adds additional protection,
particularly from fairies
✤ If you wish, you can then consecrate your
creation.
✤ It is said that if the antler breaks you have
been attacked and you should bury the
broken pieces in the earth.
This charm demonstrates how much arcane
knowledge can be lost, without people appreciating
the real reasons for certain actions. In other cultures
the shark’s tooth is equally protective.
While the owner of the evil eye did not
necessarily need to be a witch, the curse did
require the services of a magical person to
remove it. In Scotland such arcane knowledge
was, and in some cases still is, passed from
father to daughter and mother to son. The word
orth was used for an ordinary spell but a
ceremonial magical spell among the Gaelic Celts
was signified by the word bricht. It is interesting
that this word also means ‘bright’ in dialect –
perhaps such a ceremony required an
exceptionally bright moonlit night.

Abracadabra Healing Charm

This is a very simple spell, but it’s been around for thousands of years and comes from old occult practices. I thought I’d include it.

Write the word “Abracadabra” on a small piece of paper, and on each line, right the word with one less letter, like this:

ABRACADABRA

ABRACADABR

ABRACADAB

ABRACADA

ABRACAD

ABRACA

ABRAC

ABRA

ABR

AB

A

Roll the paper up and wear it around your neck. The belief is that the illness will disappear just like the word did.
