Last night I was thinking- never a good thing, causes all kinds of trouble to anyone around me -that a position as a homemaker, is a terribly convenient place of power for anyone who practices magic. Regardless of any labels, I’m mostly referring to witchcraft and folk magic here.
But anyway. I’m going to ramble here, so bare with me! Besides the practical- and obviously easy to infuse with magic since they are already magic -skills like cooking, cleaning, sewing, etc. the homemaker has a lot of say what goes in and around the home. When my little sister was being bothered by a wayward ghost who had taken a liking to her, and was spooking in front of her bedroom door!(Hate for creepy dead guys who lurk in pre-teen bedrooms) I talked to my mom to yell at said dead creepster, and yell him out of her house. Angry gets shit done. And an angry parents? Gets shit done even faster.
Also, you as a homemaker/home-owner have a special bond with your house. Don’t get me wrong, when a house is old, there is a possibility that in different layers of time, previous owners entities/ghosts still live, and that is fine. But, when someone-thing comes into your house, and creeps on your child/someone of your family, you ánd the house can work to eject the pitiful creature.
I have always talked to my parents house, and I talk to my own house. I greet it when I come home. I talk to it while I am cleaning, I talk to it when it is nice and cozy inside, before I go to bed, I praise the house how well it protects me and my family, and I ask it to keep up the good work. And with that, you can also ask the house to help with things.
I’m not going to give away secrets here. But when you do protection-work in and on your home, talk to your house. Make it part of said working. Tell the house how you do the working, and what it should do, and the reason you are making it. So when creepers do happen, you can tell the house to activate said protection, or even, energetically bar every door in the bloody house. Or even better, confine the creature to a specific area and keep it there. And prevent it from going into the walls.
For some reason, in my mind, when I thought about it, I kept seeing those large sets of keys from like Victorian times, that the mistress of the house had. That could be a great focus object for something like that.
Anyway, that’s me for now.
