Bottle Spells and Spell Bottles

A spell bottle is a bottle into which a magical spell has been cast in the form of physical items used to ensure that the spell results in the desired outcome. A bottle spell is a magical spell that is contained within a bottle, and which, when finished, is expected to work for the ends one desires. There are many types of bottle spells used in folk magic traditions from around the world. Almost every culture that uses bottles (or gourds, or animal horns) as containers also has developed ways to use those containers to hold works of magical spell craft. The painted bottle spells shown here were made in America from small medical bottles. They come in both hoodoo and Catholic styles, as described below. Among the earliest spell bottles known are those called "Witch Bottles." In more recent times, the witch bottles of England and Anglo-America have been made from cobalt blue glass and they are often kept on a window sill "for pretty" as well as to keep away witches and the evil eye.

Internet Sacred Text Archive Home The Celtic Connection The Michael Teachings Back in 1979, novelist Chelsea Quinn Yarbro presented a whole new framework for understanding personality and spirituality. This framework wasn’t hers, but had been “dictated” to a group of friends in San Fransisco through a Ouija board. The source of the information referred to itself simply as “Michael”. Rather like the ultimate computer in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Michael would readily answer any question about life, the universe and everything. The Ouija board is now long gone but the questions and answers have never stopped. Messages from Michael tells the story of the origins of the Michael teachings. So where to begin? Let’s start with… Who – or what – is Michael? When the messages first came through, the source explained that each individual soul evolves in consciousness through the long and often difficult process of reincarnating, living many different lives in many different circumstances. The being we call Michael is one of these—an integrated entity. Essence Goal
