#binding magic

[crazycatsiren]

In Chinese folk magic, knots can be used for binding purposes.

On their wedding night, newlyweds, upon entering their wedding chamber, may have a corner of each of their wedding garbs tied together in a knot when they both sit down on the marriage bed to symbolize their union and bless their coming together as one whole.

The Moon a Sickle’s Blade

You can smell the damp earth

in the cool night air.

The sky is black, the moon a sickle’s blade.

Bramble and twigs claw at your skin

as you walk barefoot

on the blanketed forest floor

of dried leaves.

You hear its crackle as you get closer,

see its orange glow

through the silhouette of trees.

Hush now—

those worries in the back of your mind.

Discard your masks

before you enter the circle.

Let your veils and cloaks fall.

We do not hide what we are here, women.

Here you are as Mother Earth made you.

Here you are, sister.

Here you are, sovereign.

Feel the drum thrum through you.

Let yourself bend like a willow to its pulse.

Here, all bodies and spirits are welcome

to join the dance.

Let the voices of your ancestors

burn through you.

Cast the names of your enemies

into the fire.

You are safe here.

Their shadows cannot cross

the black salt ring.

Sing, and let the spirits hear you.

Cast the wax doll into the fire,

bound in black string,

nine times knotted.

Let the flames rise.

Let the owls cry.

Take your sister’s hand

and let your feet guide you

around the circle.

Stomp and shake.

Here, we do not punish rage.

Here, we do not shame grief.

Let it move through you as you dance.

Here you are seen.

Here you are vindicated.

Cry, and know that it is done.

Bless the fire with handfuls of earth

until it sleeps.

Toss the bones

and watch them fall crossed.

Lay down and know

your sisters in spirit keep watch.

Slip the black and purple stones

under your pillow to guard your dreams,

and know that when you wake,

your petition has been heard.

I've been underutilizing binding spells for overcoming executive dysfunction. Studying, housework, appointments, work, whatever. Bind bind bind.

Dec 9, 22

this morning i did a light cleansing, and sprinkled rosemary and salt in all my doorways because i cut off a very emotionally reactive friend. i will also be lighting a charcoal incense

i made a protection sigil with Lucifer, here is my process

Supplies

blue water color card paper

black pen

brown pen

green pen

grey pen

red pen

blue pen

eucalyptus+rosemary oil

lavendar+cedarwood oil

intent

"All those who seek entry unwarrented, your energy will be sent back x6 and you will be binded 6x6 and you will be turned away with the power of 6x6x6 Under the protection of the Great Lucifer, a horrible fate will befall you should you cross me"

process

i wrote my intent and sigil in my journal first, then wrote my intent 6 times in each of the pen colors, layering them black-brown-green-grey-red-blue for protection, binding, grounding, nullifying, offensive, and reflective and then i drew my sigil pictured below, also mixing the colors on each of the 6 notches on the long lines. lastly, i sprinkled my oils on and placed it sigil side out in my window.

“Of course love magic, or erotic binding magic, was just a common in the ancient world as it is in the modern world. I say ‘erotic binding magic’ because it’s not really love that we’re dealing with here. If you’re being magically compelled to love someone or to have sex with them, you don’t exactly have consent and so really you’re erotically bound that person rather than in love with them. I make a distinction here between love magic and what I would rather call erotic finding magic.”

-Esoterica (Dr. Justin Sledge)

Witchy parent tip

[bloodyhandedamyr]

Needle Needle

Needle needle sew the string

bind them up with cotton things

rags and scrap and ribbon thread

tie up knots around their head

needle needle sew the string

soon I'll leave them dangling

curses blind and curses bleed

curses send my wrath to seed

Wrathful eyes of molten red

never let you rest your head

curses blind and curses bleed

till I seem your debts been freed

till I deem your debts been freed

This is a badass spell that we created...it’s a LOVE DOMINATION/BINDING SPELL.  More like an OBSESSION Spell, but more detailed.  We have the purple candles for domination, the red pyramid candle which is very powerful in spells, especially love spells due to the red.  Plus, I absolutely love and am attracted to pyramid shapes, gemstones, and candles, so I had to use it.  Then the white roses to give the spell some extra love power as well as performing this spell on a Full Moon.  The Full Moon actually landed on a Friday night, which is the planetary day of Venus, the goddess of love and beauty. Did the spell manifest?  What do you think?  ;)
