Cut a small piece of white paper in
the shape of a pentagon. On this paper, paint or draw the rune exactly
as you see it written on the above webpage.
Now find some cardboard for the backing. Paste the white
paper on the cardboard and cut off the excess cardboard. Make a hole at
the top of the cardboard and get a piece of ribbon or string so that
you can hang this charm in a special place.
If you would
like to consecrate this charm, light a candle and some incense. Hold
this charm with both hands over the incense and say thus:
I hereby
consecrate thee with the powers of the earth, water, fire and air
To protect me
from all harm and bless me with comfort, joy and glory.
May this charm
serve me well in this world, between worlds and in all the worlds
So mote it be.
Similarly, you can make charms with
natural items such as rocks, leaves, nuts, pebbles, gemstones, jewelry,
dried herbs, flowers, etc. Natural items make the best charms because
they already have powerful energy stored in them. We just need to guide
this energy into the direction we desire it to go.
Charms provide people with comfort and peace of mind,
knowing that they are protected from unfortunate circumstances. This
belief may itself help them stave off harmful situations.
Most people use religious symbols as charms. Religious
jewelry is very popular in all parts of the world. Some cultures use
bags of different charms, sometimes called mojo bags. These bags may
contain herbs, gemstone, animal parts as well as incense or oils. The
combination of these items is believed to be more powerful that each of
these items individually.
Another ancient charm is a necklace of prayer beads. The
practice started thousands of years ago in pagan cultures and the beads
were originally made with seeds and nuts from sacred trees like the
Rudraksha or Sandalwood. This practice was later accepted by the newer
religions such as Catholicism as Rosaries. Praying over these sacred
necklaces imbibes an individual's powerful energies into it over and
over again. This type of charm is constantly being consecrated and is
usually very powerful in its ability to protect the wearer from harm.
