Ways to Use Protection Magic in Your Daily Life

Witch or not, we all seek protection and safety in our lives. We get jobs to pay for the house we live in, we buy masks to protect ourselves from harmful diseases, we use umbrellas to protect from the harshness of the sun and much more. For witches, however, protection doesn’t only mean the security of one’s physicality. 

Protecting your Aura

Your body is not the only area of life that you should protect. As a spiritual being, you are vulnerable to absorbing external energetic forces that may or may not be positive. Fortunately, just like stable careers, masks, and umbrellas, you have the ability to shield yourself from negative thoughts and energies that can distort your perspective of reality and cloud your aura.

Your mindset is not enough to shield you from vicious energies, malicious intent, and spells cast against you. Thus, protecting your energy is crucial when it comes to spellwork, astral projection, divination, and maintaining your overall well-being. 

Practical Ways to Practice Protection Magick

Spell Sachets

The most common way to protect your surrounding energies is by keeping a talisman in your pocket, This may contain herbs, spell sachets, and corresponding crystals or a combination of the three, at once. A talisman can be translated as an item of luck’ or a lucky protection charm. 

To make a spell sachet for protection, gather protective herbs such as Rosemary, Basil, and cloves. Amplify its effectiveness by adding protective crystals, flowers, and trinkets to your talisman.

Crystals

Versatile and beautiful, having crystals on hand is the quickest way to connect with the restorative vibrations of the earth. Crystals can also act as a digital smog and an energy magnet’ which you can use to shield from negative energies. 

Practice protection magick with crystals by simply carrying them along as a talisman, meditating with them, or keeping them close during a divination session. Some protective crystals that you might want to consider adding to your collection are Hematite, Black tourmaline, and Obsidian.

Candle Magic Basics Every Witch Can Use

Candle Magick

Candles are the most accessible tool that you can use to practice protection magick. This is because candles help us convey our requests to the ethereal realm. A blown candle flame is more than just disappearing candlelight. Once blown, the flame that we see on a candle reunites with your guardian angels, your spiritual protectors, the divine. 

To practice candle magick, cleanse your altar and have a black candle ready. Black aids the banishing and cleansing of the aura from negativity, making it the ideal candle to work with for protection. Once you have everything set, light the candle and set a specific intention with the following guidelines:

What do you want to be protected from? 

Who do you want to protect? 

How do you want to be protected?

You may keep the light on for a few minutes and meditate on your affirmation.

When working with candles, crystals, or any divination tools, it is best to express your affirmation as precisely as possible, as this aids the effectiveness of your practice. Reading further on your tools’ correspondences can also help you choose which one to work with.

Nonetheless, it’s still important to keep in mind that the most ideal practice is the one that you are intuitively comfortable and satisfied with. Stay safe!
