Lucky Spice Charm Necklace

This simple charm is a pared-down version of a folk magic tradition found in North America and the Caribbean. It’s particularly useful when there’s a specific situation you could use some good luck with, whether it’s a friendly game of chance or something more serious like a court case or job interview. But you can also just make one for the fun of it, charge it with general good luck energy, and then keep it handy for when the perfect occasion might arise! Star anise seed pods, with their distinctive and easy-to-thread formations, add their lucky energies to that of whole nutmeg. You can make this a necklace, bracelet or anklet—whatever you prefer.

You will need:

1 whole nutmeg

Small drill

2 whole star anise pods

Length of string or thin ribbon

Instructions:

Drill a small hole through the nutmeg. Thread it onto the ribbon or string. Now thread one star anise onto the left side of the nutmeg and the other onto the right. Tie a knot on the outside of each star anise so that the three spices won’t slide around too much on the string, but will rather stay close to each other at the center of the necklace or bracelet. As you work, visualize your hands imbuing the string and the spices with your personal power. When you’re finished, tie the charm around your neck, wrist or ankle and say the following (or similar) words three times:

har jan ke vadd bhaag vaddere jin har har saradhaa har piaas

pronounce it in plain english, just combining holy magic sylables in the context of the american english language and all it's interferences and noise around, so that you can fight and clean yourself by winning a battle that seemed impossible to win

Place the bay leaf inside the drawstring bag. Repeat this with each of the remaining leaves. When all six leaves are in the bag, hold it above your head and visualize the leaves casting a white sphere around you as protection from any harmful energy. Each day, pin the charm to the inside of your clothing or carry it in your pocket until you feel that protection is no longer needed
