There are countless ways to protect yourself. Amulets, sachets, sigils… oh my. Lets start with one of my favorites:

A good ole sachet!

I love sachets, or gris-gris’s if you will. These are little baggies you fill up with a mixture of crystals and herbs and anything you’d like. 

I make new ones all the time, and am constantly giving them out to my friends. Heres a step by step on how to make yours!

1. Find the bag

When doing spellwork, everything is important right? You need your intentions in each element. The first step is really knowing your intention, then you can build. Lets make an imaginary example as I explain. Lets say I have the intention of psychic protection because my dreams have been bad and I feel like energies are attacking me in my dreams and draining me. I’m going to find a purple bag, for divinity and psychic power. This can also tie into dreams, so purple is perfect for this. (Black or white is always generally acceptable for any spell as you can use the intentions of them very broadly.)

2. Fill the bag.

I’m going to throw some black tourmaline and purple amethyst in this bag, to help clear bad energy and to purify my dreams and protect me from any bad energies or spirits that may be trying to get to me when I’m in the vulnerable state of sleep. (tip: If you always wake up tired, you may be using your energy in your dreams) I will also grab some lavender to soften everything up and bring positivity in, and maybe a dash of pink salt. 

Everything I’m using has an intention and purpose. As you fill your bag, give that object its purpose and program it by speaking your intention and directing your energy towards it.

Now, I’ll keep this bag under my pillow. Did I explain this well? Please let me know if you have a question.
