TRUE BLOOD Sacred Witchblood Soy Pillar Candle w/ Gold Seal Dragon's Blood

כ״ג בתשרי תשע"ב
Blodlessing 25

The concept of Witch Blood is very important to Traditions of Witchcraft that accept the idea of a Divine bloodline passed down through the generations as told in many of the myths of humanity. For example, the Sumarian myth tells the story of the Annunaki (meaning "of Royal Blood"), the Akkadian deities who introduced the Divine bloodline into humanity through Adam and Lilith. In this cultural myth, it is the children of Lilith who carry Witch Blood.

For those Traditions of Witchcraft that do not accept such myths (as they are found in some form among many cultures), the concept of Awakening holds true, teaching that we all have Witch Blood within us, it just needs to be awakened so that we may reconnect to our Ancestors and Ancestral memories.

Handcrafted with premium certified kosher soy wax and pure cotton wick, designed to help you evoke your Witch Power, this deep deep blood red TRUE BLOOD Sacred Witchblood pillar candle is generously scented with an exotic original deeply rich blend of Gold Seal Dragon's Blood resin oil exclusive to WITCHCRAFTS Artisan Alchemy™ This gorgeous gothic pillar is dusted with Gold Seal Dragon's Blood and adorned with a silver pewter Pentacle charm hung on luxury Black Velvet ribbon.

Use TRUE BLOOD for power casting, blood moon rites, bonfire rituals, awakening or arousing Witchblood, raising power, empowerment, sexual potency, love magic and conjuring the Ancient Ones.

This extraordinary power pillar measures 3x9".

TRUE BLOOD is available in 2x3", 2x4", 1.5x6", 2x6", 2.5x6", 3x4", 3x6", 3x9", 3x15" and 3x21" pillar sizes. (convo me for custom listing if no listing is up for the size you want)

BBC Reports Frequent Burning of Paraffin Candles Linked to Increased Cancer Risk

כ׳ בתשרי תשע"ב
Blodlessing 22

BBC reports that frequent burning of paraffin candles over time linked to cancer:

To investigate candle emissions, the researchers burned a range of candles in the laboratory and collected the mixture of substances they gave off.

Paraffin-based candles produced "clear sharp peaks" for many chemicals, mainly because burning candles does not produce high enough temperatures to combust hazardous molecules such as toluene and benzene.

The scientists suggested switching to candles made from beeswax or soy, which did not release significant levels of the chemicals.

Researcher Amid Hamidi said people who frequently used candles, for instance to help them relax in the bath or provide the right ambience for dinner, [or frequency in a sacred space or temple room - added by me] were most at risk.

He told the American Chemical Society in Washington: "An occasional paraffin candle and its emissions will not likely affect you.

"But lighting many paraffin candles every day for years or lighting them frequently in an un-ventilated bathroom around a tub, for example, may cause problems."

Hekate Liminal Rites Dark Goddess Queen of the Crossroads Talisman Poison Pendant

כ׳ בתשרי תשע"ב
Blodlessing 22

Witch Queen of the Crossroads, bearing the keys to the Mysteries, Hekate is a liminal goddess who stands at the boundaries and in transitional moments of life. Associated with root, herbal and poison magic, Hekate carries the torch of the Old Ways.

This incredible HEKATE Liminal Rites Dark Goddess Queen of the Crossorads talisman pendant contains genuine Wolfsbane (Aconitum napellus), Black Nightshade (Solanum nigrum), 3 whole Saffron stamens, Blackthorn bark, Garlic, Oak bark, black Onyx gemstone chips, a sterling silver Key charm, a Bronze bead and a black faceted drop bead - all elements sacred to Hekate.

The pendant tube measures approximately 35cm x 8cm (1.5" x 5/16") including the antiqued Ox silver toned end caps. The pendant is hung on a 45" black chain with a black lobster claw clasp. (Coming soon additionally with a gothic black bail.)

Wolfsbane is a powerful root used for protection and invisibility. Also used for visionary work, uncrossing and crossing magic, underworld journeying, shamanic self initiation, and as a altar guardian.

When acquiring Wolfsbane (Aconite), ALWAYS know the species you are getting so that you can have some idea of how toxic the one you are getting is. Some species are less toxic than others (for example, those used in flying ointments and anointing oils should only be of a non-toxic variety).

Black Nightshade (a less toxic Nightshade than Belladonna or Deadly Nightshade but still poisonous) mediates prophecy and divination conjured through the power of Hekate (who is also known by Chaldean Oracles as the Cosmic Soul). A classic Samhain plant, Black Nightshade relates to the mysteries of the Otherworld. Used in liminal rites and lunar magic.

In the Orphic Hymn to Hekate, Hekate is described as "the Saffron-cloaked Goddess of the Heavens." A herb in Hekate's own garden, Saffron powerfully raises the wind and strengthens psychic power with the force of the triple Goddess who stands at the Crossroads between life, death and rebirth.

Blackthorn connects to the Crone and Dark Power of Hekate as Witch of the Dark Moon and Queen of the Night.

Garlic is one of the offerings to Hekate at the Deipnon (Hekate Supper) held at the end of the lunar month during the dark phase of the moon (and before the sliver of the New Moon has been sighted).

An Oak tree stands in the center of Hekate's garden in Orphic Argonautica. Hekate is she who is crowned with oak-leaves.

Black Onyx is a projective protective stone of the Dark Goddess able quell psychic instability in the spellcaster and deflect psychic attack. Hekate is often found in ancient texts and on ancient amulets linked with Solomon and Hebrew Divine Names (particularly אדני Adonai and צבאות Tzevahot).

Sacred bronze is associated with Hekate's power in the Underworld. A bronze triple Hekate amulet, with King Solomon found on the obverse side performing hygromanteia (demon summoning) found in Italy at Ostia, links Hekate to Jewish magic. Hekate titles are also often found linked with the names of Hebrew angels.

Significant to Hekate's role as gatekeeper and key-bearing Queen of the entire Cosmos, her key to the door of Sacred Knowledge in this talisman is sterling silver.

As a genuine container of magic, should a time come when the talisman is no longer needed, please bury it where it will never be found or consign it to a fire. Never open it. Never indiscriminately discard it.

Original Recipe.

*****WARNING!!! - Some contents of this talisman are EXTREMELY POISONOUS and MAY BE LETHAL if ingested. DO NOT EAT, BURN or DIRECTLY HANDLE the contents of this talisman.*****

This incredibly powerful HEKATE talisman reminds us to always be mindful of the power we possess.

With power comes responsibility - The variety of Wolfsbane in this talisman is **EXTREMELY POISONOUS**. The glass vial is thoroughly sealed with black wax. If the glass breaks or the vial comes apart, **do not handle the contents with your bare hands** - USE GLOVES to return pieces of the botanical to the vial, to clean up the pieces and/or to dispose of them. Do not leave the talisman where children or unsuspecting adults may tamper with it. Use caution when handling, storing or disposing of vial contents. If you would like me to seal it with professional strength wine bottle sealing wax, write a note to me with purchase and I will happily add the heavy duty sealing wax to the seal at no extra charge. I used regular sealing wax only to make it easier to open the vial without breaking it should you want to use the contents for spellwork.

Comes beautifully packaged in a black jewelry bag.

Warrior Moon Omen Divination

י"ג בתשרי תשע"ב
Blodlessing 15

As the October Warrior Moon waxes toward complete fullness in Aries tomorrow evening, I ritually drew an oracle card from my own set of Moon Oracle cards (the set I offer for sale on my website) to see what the Universe has to say to me to expect for this upcoming Celtic New Year. No lie - I drew the Full Moon in Water card. This card's oracular meaning portends fulfillment!

ful·fill also ful·fil (fl-fl)
:

tr.v. ful·filled, ful·fill·ing, ful·fills also ful·fils
1. To bring into actuality; effect: fulfilled their promises.
2. To carry out (an order, for example).
3. To measure up to; satisfy. See Synonyms at perform, satisfy.
4. To bring to an end; complete.

The end of this year (4) brings into actuality (1) and carries out (2) the promise of the Universe (1) to me that I shall be favored with a full measure of satisfaction (3) this upcoming New Year. Yay!

I love my Moon Oracle cards!

Practicing the Craft with Integrity

י״ב בתשרי תשע"ב
Blodlessing 14

At Witchcrafts Artisan Alchemy™ I strive to practice the Craft with integrity and to pass the energy of this integrity on to you, my clients, through the lovely offerings you purchase from my shoppe. While practicing the Craft with integrity may cost me sales, doing so doesn't acquire for me bad karma to pass on to my clients through my sales.

Are you really buying handmade? When an item is listed as handmade at Witchcrafts Artisan Alchemy™, you can trust that indeed, the item is handmade at my shoppe.

One has to wonder about the truthfulness and integrity of all a shoppe's listings when clearly commercial items such as crystal balls are tagged as handmade by the shoppe to better position them within the Etsy marketplace categories to make more sales at any cost. This kind of dishonest business practice which blatantly violates Etsy policy hurts every single honest business owner on Etsy and compromises the integrity of the entire Etsy venue.

I may be a bitchy witch sometimes, but I won't lie to you to make a sale.

My commitment to practicing integrity in everything I do has cost me much over the course of my fifty year old lifetime, but you know what? I am blessed by my Ancestors on account of it, and when it comes my time to join them in the Otherworld, I will not be ashamed.

May you who choose to purchase from Witchcrafts Artisan Alchemy™ be blessed through the practice of ethical Witchcraft.

About Shmurah Ritual Candles

י״א בתשרי תשע"ב
Blodlessing 13

Most candle shoppes mass produce their candles in batches - it is certainly easier and more expedient to do it that way. In contradistinction to most shoppes, hand poured ritual candles at WITCHCRAFT Artisan Alchemy™ are witch-crafted individually in the full spirit of Old World Tradition with exacting focused magical intent. Created in harmony with the sacred cycles of Old Ways Tradition, with extra attention to detail, and within the context of sacred ritual craftworking, every handcrafted item at WITCHCRAFTS™ reverberates with magical energy and potency. No handcrafted offering at WITCHCRAFTS™ is mass produced.

My individually witch-crafted ritual candles are to the Craft as shmurah matzah is to Jewish Tradition. While batch-made candles may be okay for use in common circumstances as is regular kosher matzah, individually crafted candles carry the magical power of carefully guarded focused magical intent. For Passover rituals, magically observant Jews only use shmurah matzah. For Craft rituals, this magically observant witch only uses "shmurah candles" where the magical power imbued into each individual candle is focused and guarded during each single one's unique creation.

Shmurah means "guarding" with extra precautions and focused conscious observation to ensure that the object being "guarded" is crafted to the exacting specifications required to fulfill the precise ritual obligation for which it is being made. In consequence to the way this process is conducted, a shmurah matzah or candle becomes imbued with the laser-like focused magical intent of its maker and contains maximum magical potency.

Discover the difference of Old Ways magic.

As I build my new website and prepare for Samhain, I have invoked the spirit of creativity and innovation which runs through my bloodline. Specifically, I have invoked the blessings of my ancestors Benjamin Franklin (the great statesman and founding father of our great nation) and Nobel prize winning author William Faulkner. May my ancestors smile upon my endeavor at WITCHCRAFTS Artisan Alchemy™.
