“Quiet the Rumors” knot spell

So recently there’s been a group of people who’ve decided they don’t like me, and we share a couple mutual friends. Because of this, I happen to hear a lot of their negative opinions about me. There isn’t much I can personally do to stop it, so I’ve created this knot spell to help hold their tongues.

What you will need:

An old pair of earbuds

Pants pocket/backpack/purse

What to do:

Cast a circle or begin your ritual in whatever way you normally would.

Meditate a bit on the things they’ve been saying about you and how it makes you feel. Bring that energy to the surface. This is the energy you’ll be using to power the spell.

You’re going to be making 3 knots, instead of the traditional 9. Taking the audio jack (plug) end of the earbuds, slowly tie it in a knot and recite “With this knot I bind the source. No longer will they speak so ill of me.”

Taking the headphone end, slowly tie a knot and recite “With this knot I bind the sound. No longer will I hear them speak so ill of me.”

Taking the middle of the cord, slowly tie your final knot and recite “No longer will those words be spoke, no longer will they pierce my ears. With this knot I bind it down, silence that sound, so mote it be.”

Then take the knotted headphones and shove them into your pocket or the bottom of a backpack. Allow the cord to get further tangled. Either keep it on you or store it somewhere like the back of your closet.

I hope this helps anyone out there struggling with the same situation I’m in.

Forest angels

•tough bark like skin on your bare feet and naked palms all from wandering your sacred land

•sitting and talking to the babbling brook and laughing at all it’s sweet gentle jokes

•a birds nest of hair woven with feathers and twigs and moss

•jewelry made from your favorite stones and bits of bones, little gifts from your forest friends passed

•singing sorrowful songs with the mourning doves because their songs remind you of your family

•cuddling with the rabbits who’ve learned to eat from your hands, singing to the deer you’ve watched since the dawn of their life, laughing with the owl you knew as a chick

•you smell like the deep earth and sweet rain and mud clings to the hem of your clothes

•your feathers drip with the mist , heavy but not cold

•your lips are stained by the sun warmed berries, sweet and ripe it tastes like a first kiss and a thousand good memories

•watching the dawn crack through the thickly wooded areas and life around you take a deep breath as it wakes up

•winters spent helping the mice and squirrels feed their families and dancing on the ice of frozen ponds

•springs spent gathering flowers and crushing the petals against your skin to smell sweet

•autumns spent eating apples and watching your friends grow fat for winter, laughing how they bumble about gathering food
