Poppet uses and a printable pattern!

 What is a poppet?

Poppets have been used in many cultures for many reasons. The most common and easily recognizable ones are voodoo dolls. Voodoo dolls specifically are of course part of a closed practice and off-limits to outsiders. That doesn't mean ALL poppets are off limits though. They can be very useful in many different types of magic, which I'll go over later in this post. A poppet is basically just a doll made to represent a person a spell is targeted at. They can be used in baneful magic to place a curse or hex on someone, but they can also be used in protective magic, Healing magic, To send someone good luck or good vibes, and plenty of other things. They can be made out of whatever you have on hand, whether that's fabric, felt, straw, corn husks, wood, a rock, whatever. My favorite & the one I'll be talking about the most in this post will be felt or a fabric one. 

A few examples of what a poppet can look like with various materials.

What goes into a felt/fabric poppet?

So you'll need something that ties your poppet to your target, this is called a taglock. I talk about what a taglock is and some examples of them in this post. Whatever you choose to use will link your poppet with your target. Then I like to add crystals and herbs that correspond to whatever the spell is for. And last, I always include a piece of paper with a clearly stated, written-out intention in the present tense. for example, for a poppet I want to bring someone good luck I would write something like "(name of the target) is Fortunate in all areas of life, Good luck finds them and bad luck stays far away from them."  Including your intention written out is not actually necessary, in fact, adding anything but a taglock isn't actually necessary but it does boost your intention a bit making your poppet more effective. All that's absolutely necessary is your intention, as long as you charge the poppet with your intention and make it known who the target is you can't really go wrong.

A few (of the many) examples of ways to use a poppet

  • As a decoy, Make a poppet to represent yourself with the intention to absorb any negative crap anyone tries to send your way, cleanse it about once a month so it doesn't get too much of a build-up. 
  • To send a healing spell to someone
  • To send someone good luck or positive vibes
  • To protect someone other than yourself, use it as a decoy that will absorb any negative crap for that person instead of yourself.
  • To bind someone from doing something
  • To curse or hex someone
  • (NOT recommended) for a love spell
  • (Not to be confused with a "love" spell) for self-love, make the poppet to represent yourself, and talk to it and take care of it as you would yourself. Sometimes physically doing things for yourself can be hard, this makes it easier.
  • Just about any other spell for another person you can think of!

Making a Money Bowl

 What is a money bowl? Who couldn't use some more money in their life? A money bowl is a bowl or other container filled with things to draw money to you. You can fill it with all kinds of things, there's no one right way to do it. below I'll go over how I do mine. Feel free to use it exactly how I write it or to change it up as you see fit! How I do my money bowl First I took a ceramic bowl & cleansed it with some incense. Then I drew sigils on the inside for things like "Money from good sources comes to me", "Money flows to me with ease" and "My Etsy shop makes sales". If you need a guide on how to create your own sigils, check out this post for all the details! This post contains a list of herbs & crystals for money if you don't have what I use or would just like to use something else. So after cleansing and adding sigils to my bowl I mix up some green salt. I do this by adding food coloring to plain salt as well as a few herbs

How to make your own sigils

What is a sigil? Sigils are symbols created to represent a word or phrase. They fall under "chaos magic" which encourages its practitioners to experiment and try new things. This is why you'll find so many methods for creating sigils. There is one strict rule to creating sigils, You must activate it. Other than that, it just has to feel right to you, the method, the phrase, the outcome, as long as it feels right to you it's the right way to do it. I'm sharing one method in this post but you can experiment with other methods as well or even take steps from different methods and create your own method. It's your practice, do things your way. First, how to activate your sigil To activate your sigil after creating it, you must destroy it. It seems counterproductive, but after you create your sigil, you can copy it into your grimoire to save it and then destroy it. You can do this by: Drawing it on paper or a bay leaf and burning it. *Bonus* you can add correspond

List of Effective curse, & hex ingredients

  When you may need this list.... We don't believe in the three-fold law, nor do we subscribe to the strictly love & light belief... That being said, sometimes a person will come into your life and cause so much damage you feel the need to give them some sort of payback in one way or another. That's when you may turn to casting a curse or hex on them. While we don't want to go around cursing people for every little slight against us, some people do absolutely have it coming. If you come across one of these people in your life, you may want to use this list to give karma a little push in the right direction. We hope to not actually need a list like this in life but it's better to be prepared if the time does come. Always include a taglock to tie the spell to your intended target . Taglocks include  Bodily fluids from the target,  Finger or toenails from the target,  The target's Hair,  A photo of the target,  Personal items of the target's,  Poppet to represe
