Below is a picture of the bag that I made and its the one that got washed. It is hand sewn, the cloth was hand dyed, beaded, and embroidered in green threads with runes and a dollar sign symbol. I know I did not sew the runes into it as well as I could have but considering I did it by hand I think I did a decent job. I tried actually selling some of these bags, as sachet bags for various uses, however that idea did not pan out. People around here are not so much into "Black Magic" and "Devil worship" and considering I live basically smack dab beside and around several Christian churches I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. It is so much so, in fact, that I recently had a neighbors toddler son come stomping up to me one recent Sunday and ask me specifically in a angry and demanding tone "Why don't you believe in God?!" Seriously how to answer this to a four year old child that still doesn't understand much except what his mother apparently does not try to teach him? The mother stood by and said not a word to her son for his behavior, whom was scowling at me intensely and demanding a answer. I replied that not everyone has the same religion as he does and that he should respect his elders a lot more and I went about my business and did not speak to his mother. I doubt anything I said would have made much difference anyway. I am a oddity in my little community..as I am the only known follower of a non Christian faith and my apartment is given a wide berth by most everyone that knows I do not attend the local churches, as if seeing a pentagram finger-drawn on the windows and doors was not enough of a obvious clue! At least it keeps away people that would possibly vandalize or cause mishaps to myself or my home. I wear my symbol with pride and I do not hide who and what I am and I don't care much about what the neighbors think or feel about having a "Satanic worshipping" witch living among them. Karma will hand them their dues eventually and I'm going to be the one cackling with glee when She does! That is possibly a silent bone of contention and a barrier between myself and my love interest, as he is a Missionary Baptist. He swears to me that he does not love me less or judge me for the fact that we are opposite religions and what I choose to believe is my business. we do not discuss our religious beliefs or differences of opinion, it is not something he wants to get into so I leave it alone and don't push it.
As I sit here and type, the incense has burned down, the candle I lit is still burning very brightly, and I can smell the anointing oil and money drawing powders I put inside the jar, its a standard 7 day jarred candle. I am still enveloped in the awareness of spiritual energies in the room, and the green amulet bag I have on is releasing its scent and charge onto my skin. I feel that I have succeeded in my request and that Higher Powers are listening to me tonight. I am hoping by the Full Moon I will see a definite sign of this. Tuesday, there is a important meeting my love interest has to attend that will decide his fate for a month. I have requested that meeting goes well as he owes some money or possibly things will not go well for him, and I do not like the idea of what may happen if it does not. you will all be seeing a distraught and heartbroken blog post if this request of mine does not go as I have asked. I know I am technically not supposed to do any magick with my computer running or anything electrical running in the room, however, my computer is in my magickal space area and it gets included in the circle I cast, as there is really no avoiding it. It does not seem to really affect the outcomes of my spell work, and my computer is part of my money making tools so therefore for a financial aide spell I don't see the harm in including the table it is sitting on into my circle. I do turn it off occasionally when I am doing some serious Darker themed spells as I don't want anything negative or harmful possibly inhabiting my computer that should not be there. I don't see how it could be that demons or bad spirits or malevolent energies can manifest through a computer exactly, that seems to be a blown out of proportion idea made up by Hollywood. But it is a electrical current device which such entities could draw energy from in order to manifest their presences, so best to be safe than sorry. I think I have rambled maniacally enough. It is time to close my circle and put away my tools, and place my newly charged bag in a safe spot so it will never be washed again!
I bid you all Blessed Be and Happy Friday the 13th!
