I got my hands on Nowa Fanastyka magazines from 83-91' (my auntie wanted to burn her collection and I had to step in) and there's Sapko's publication from 91' for his Witcher short story The Bounds of Reason. While it's in Polish, it's still a neat find.

Storm Protection Spell

With the stormy weather coming to the Texas/Oklahoma/Arkansas in the next few days, I decided to work on a storm protection spell to ease my mind. I hope this is useful for y'all!

materials:

jar (i recommend a jar that’s more short-and-wide, as opposed to tall-and-narrow).

blue candle, to represent water

yellow candle, to represent thunder and lightning

black candle, to absorb damage

white candle, to represent heavy winds

dirt from your home, to represent stability

a print-out of your home, or address written on a piece of paper, or anything else to represent your home (in my case, i used a flower that matches the name of my street)

something to tie into knots - twine, a small piece of rope, thread, etc (something small enough to fit into your jar)

instructions:

1. cleanse your space/your materials; meditate on your intentions; open your circle — just prep for your spell work however you typically prep.

2. arrange your area like so:

the idea is to make your space mimic the symbol for air (🜁)

3. place the dirt in the bottom of your jar. on top of it, place the item(s) that represent your home.

4. next, you’ll light your blue candle. imagine the water from a rainstorm pouring down all around you. imagine the sound and smell of the rain.

5. next, light the yellow candle. imagine the bright flashes of lightning, followed by the booming thunder that accompanies it.

6. next, you’ll light your white candle — imagine the howling winds, whipping all around you and making your house creak.

7. now, you’ll take your rope, and knot it three times, saying with each knot: “You are bound from wrecking devastation. Let there be no hesitation in turning your force away.”

8. drop the rope in your jar, saying: “Danger be contained that my beloved home may be unscathed until this peril passes.”

9. close your jar tightly. now, take your black candle, light it, and allow a few drops of wax to fall on the jar. place the candle on top of your jar, and allow all the candles to burn through. if you’d like, you can meditate during this point and imagine all the elements (water, thunder, and the wind) around your home, with the black candle absorbing all the damage and negativity.

10. after the candles have burnt out, place the jar somewhere dark and secure (like a closet or bathroom cabinet) until the storm has passed.

11. after the storm has passed, take your jar, open it back up, and place it in the sun for 3 days, allowing the sun to "dry up all the rain". after the 3 days, you may discard what’s inside the jar and re-purpose it (i recommend using it to store some kind of water — moon water, sun water, rain water, snow water, etc!)

notes:

you can also use this spell to help friends or family that may be dealing with inclement weather — simply replace the “my beloved home” line with “Friend’s name’s home”, or “city/state/general area”.

take your spell to the next level by dressing your black candle with mistletoe oil, crushed bay leaves, and cedar.

Extremely frustrating as Palestinians watching the world stand in solidarity with The Ukraine and suddenly knowing how to use the word occupation.

dropping this here

and this one too. they let refugees fleeing a different war freeze to death in the middle of winter while the world turned a blind eye at the frozen corpses of children who were denied asylum and died because of it. this was happening as of two months ago as well, it’s not old news

i stand with ukraine, obviously.

i also stand with those who are calling out the blatant hypocrisy in how others in the same situation were treated, as well as those who are rightfully upset in the world’s support of and reaction to of one group of people but not others who have faced the same and much worse.

and before anyone jumps on this with ‘omg not appropriate right now’ or ‘stop comparing the two’, it’s entirely possible to stand with ukraine and the russians who are protesting the russian govt, while at the same time acknowledging that the world’s eurocentric response to this situation is extremely different to the response it gives other countries in places the western world declares are “backward”, and “uncivilized”
