Candle Wick Shoppe Blog

Hello, all! I've been on a writing kick for the last few days, and when my creative gears start moving, they usually start with my mojo bag creations. Here are a few unique mojo bag ideas I've been working with based on the herbs we have in the Candle Wick Shoppe. If you're wondering if we have herbs that could help you with what you are working on, or that focus on something specific, please feel free to contact us on facebook with your questions.

A Dream Mojo Bag: Add wormwood to this mojo bag for prophetic dreams.

• Chamomile: Draws you into a peaceful sleep.
• Mullein: Use to keep away nightmares. 
• Rosemary: The herb of remembrance; using this will help you to remember your dreams.
• Sage: Will create more vivid dreams.
• Amethyst: For intuition and wisdom; will assist you with understanding your dreams.

For Studying/Tests: 

• Vervain: Assists one with retaining knowledge.
• Calendula: Add this to your mojo bag for a little bit of positive energy; studying tends to create a lot of stressful energy, and you want to counter that. The herb also helps one to concentrate. 
• Scullcap: Promotes peace and relaxation.
• Bay Leaf (ground): Add a little bit of ground bay leaf for success in your endeavors.
• Mahogany Obsidian: The finishing touch; add this for grounding and concentration. 

To Bring Paying Clients:

• Jezebel Root: Attracts wealthy patrons. 
• Patchouli: "Patchouli's grounded energy helps you be your true divine self, thus attracting people and promoting their cooperation and possible partnership."
• High John Root: Brings luck; often a base for money mojo bags.
• Raw Garnet: Promotes success in business affairs.

Here at the Candle Wick Shoppe, we have our lovely ready made mini Mojo bags ready to grab and go. However, what if we don't carry a bag that suits your needs? Maybe you just want to create your own version of what we have. Well friend, you're in luck. I'm going to tell you what to do to create your own Mojo bag.

All a Mojo bag really is is a bag of herbs, oils, and stones that are mixed together and empowered with the intention and energy of the maker for a specific use. You want to use a fabric in the color of your intention, along with herbs, oils and stones with the same intention. As you mix the herbs, oils, and stones together, you want to envision your intent and imagine your energy is flowing from your hands into the mixture. Feel free to light candles, invoke spirits/gods/ancestors/protectors as you are creating your own little magical pouch. This is your ritual, so please customize it to suit your needs and personal beliefs.

If you have been following my blogs, then you already know what I am going to say. That's right kiddies. These little gems are able to be customized to you. I always recommend doing your research on the herbs, oils, and stones you intend on using. We here at the Candle Wick Shoppe have an amazing selection to choose from, but you may be surprised at what you can find in your own back yard.
