Another work inspired by the beauty of the night sky and nature. Somehow I always enjoyed painting sea and water, despite me having phobia of large bodies of water in real life which is why I never go to the sea, but you’ll continue seeing art inspired by it. I hope you enjoy this painting and like always, it was done in Photoshop CC with Cintiq 27QHD. Print you can get here.

You will obtain an long nail that has not been used for anything outside of this ritual. Alongside this, a black thread and an image or taglock of the person you wish to work this ritual on. You will prepare a pot of soil or, if you have access, a small patch of land close to the west. When night comes, preferably on a saturday, you will take the taglock and bind it to the nail with the black thread saying:
I hammer nails into your feet, your hands, your head, youur throat. No paths shall open for thee, no roads, no doors. I say it and it shall be so.
This nail is then taken to the western side of the property or to the pot of soil which has been placed in the western part of the property. You will take the nail and place it in the soil so that it stands up and then slam it down with your hand declaring:
It is done. The nails are set, you shall not wander and no glory shall be yours.

i really wish more witches and practitioners talked about the different types of energy and how you can use them. yeah sure theres the basic elemental energies and everyone knows about using “light” and “imagine a ball of light” and whatnot. but did you know you can use shadows? did you know you could use atoms specifically? did you know you could use colors? the void? the universe? stars? you know that anything that has energy, can be used in energy work?? because when i was a novice, i didn’t. and it made me sad/disconnected because the whole “imagine a white light protecting you” didn’t resonate with me well. but what did was the abundant scale of color, and usage of shadows and darkness.
