Creating your own magical tools: a beginner's guide

By admin

Witchcraft is a practice that has been around for centuries, and it involves the use of various tools and products to enhance spellwork and rituals. These products can vary depending on the specific tradition or path that a witch follows, but there are some common items that are often used in witchcraft. One of the most well-known witchcraft products is the wand. Wands are typically made from wood and are used to focus and direct energy during spellcasting. They can be decorated with various symbols or gemstones to enhance their energy and connection to the witch. Candles are another essential tool in witchcraft.


Jez is a ten year old girl. She has a twin brother called Jay. They live with their mother and their uncle. Their father doesn’t seem to be around. The story opens with the funeral of Jez’ and Jay’s grandma. After they get home after this sad event, they discover that the police deputy is waiting for them. He barges into their home, does a search without cause, turns everything upside down and leaves. Jez and her family have just had a tragic event happen in the family, and now they face the harassment of the law. While things are as they are, we discover that Jez’ grandma and now her uncle did rootwork. That is, they took roots and herbs and plants and other exotic ingredients and made medicines out of them or made potions out of them to help people in their everyday lives. Some of these potions were for protecting their houses and families. Jez’ uncle wants to teach Jez and Jay how to do this and initiate them into the mysteries of rootwork or rootmagic. The extraordinary, unexpected magical things that happen after that form the rest of the story.

But the novel is also set during a specific historical period the fall of 1963 and so these supernatural elements play out against an equally vivid backdrop of real historical events, including the assassination of President John F. Root Magic successfully blends mystical elements with historical ones for a novel that explores Gullah culture as well as the social upheavals of the 1960s.

Candles are another essential tool in witchcraft. They are often used to represent the element of fire and can be used for a variety of purposes, such as meditation, spellwork, or ritual work. Different colored candles are associated with different intentions, so witches may have a collection of candles in various colors.

Review of Root Magic

Eleven-year-old Jezebel’s family has done “rootwork” for generations. In 1963, many of the people on their South Carolina island frequent her grandmother and uncle’s cabin for the healing potions they make, while others, including “other Negroes,” ridicule them as old-fashioned and ignorant. Deputy Collins, a white police officer, has made it his mission to harass and terrorize the root workers.

Eleven-year-old Jezebel’s family has done “rootwork” for generations. In 1963, many of the people on their South Carolina island frequent her grandmother and uncle’s cabin for the healing potions they make, while others, including “other Negroes,” ridicule them as old-fashioned and ignorant. Deputy Collins, a white police officer, has made it his mission to harass and terrorize the root workers. When Gran dies, Jezebel and her twin brother, Jay, begin lessons in rootwork with Uncle Doc. As Jezebel begins to learn “root magic,” she also begins to notice more about her own powers. After hearing a voice in the marsh, Jezebel discovers that her spirit can fly free from her body and begins to take nightly trips around the island. But those trips come at a cost. Over time, Jezebel learns how to use her powers to protect those she loves. Royce sets her novel during a time of social change (the integration of South Carolina schools, the assassination of JFK) while introducing readers to centuries-old Gullah traditions. For fans of Tracey Baptiste’s The Jumbies, this book, with its rich language and evocative setting, is a great addition to the literature based on folklore that has sustained many people of color in their island communities.

Crystals and gemstones are also commonly used in witchcraft. Each crystal or gemstone is believed to have its own unique energy and properties that can be harnessed for specific purposes. For example, amethyst is often used for protection and clarity, while rose quartz is used for love and healing. Herbs and plants are another important component of witchcraft. They can be used in various forms, such as dried or as essential oils, and are often used in spellwork, potions, or herbal remedies. Each herb or plant has its own specific properties and associations, which can be used to enhance the desired outcome of a spell or ritual. In addition to these tools, there are other witchcraft products that can be used, such as cauldrons, athames (ritual knives), tarot or oracle cards, divination tools, and ritual clothing or jewelry. These items can help create a sacred space and enhance the connection between the witch and their craft.
