Herbal Amulets are combinations of herbs, resins and essential oils along
with special stones, written wishes and any other natural power object (such
as a shell, acorn or feather) gathered into an appropriately colored bag for
a ritual purpose. Herbal Amulets are also called medicine bags, power bags,
mojo bags and sachet bags in different folk cultures.
Gather together your materials - herbs, resins, oils, stones, natural power
object and bag or 4 inch by 4 inch natural material such as cotton or silk.
If you are using a pre-made bag, place a healthy pinch of each herb and resin
in the bottom of the bag, anoint your stone(s) with the oil(s) then place in
the bag, and last place your natural power object. As you place each herb in
the bag focus on the magickal properties of that herb. As you anoint your
stone concentrate on the magickal powers of the stone and the energies of the
oils you are anointing it with. If you are using a natural power object,
concentrate on what the object represents in relationship to the spell you
are working. Tighten the strings of your bag and leave it overnight to soak
up the energies and blend them.
If you are making a sachet style Herbal Amulet, place your 4 inch by 4 inch
material flat in the center of your altar. Concentrating on the magickal
properties of each herb, place a healthy pinch in the center of the material.
Focusing on the powers of the stone(s) and oil(s) you are using, anoint your
stone(s) and place on top of the herbs. Hold the natural power object in
your hands and concentrate on its meaning for your ritual, then place it on
top of the herbs. Taking the 2 opposite corners of the material, gently draw
them up and together, then do the same with the other corners. Twist gently
but tightly and then tie the bag with a natural ribbon or string of the
proper color.
You can wear your Herbal Amulet, keep it in your pocket or purse, store it in
the glove box of your car, or keep it in an area where it is meant to
influence. For example, keep a Prosperity Herbal Amulet in your purse or
wallet; wear a Love Herbal Amulet or keep it in the drawer with your
lingerie; wear a Protection Herbal Amulet, keep it in your car's glove box or
bury or hang in near your front door; put a Dream Herbal Amulet in your
pillow - you get the idea!
