The first fall of snow is not only an event, it is a magical event. You go to bed in one kind of a world and wake up in another quite different, and if this is not enchantment then where is it to be found?

An Introduction to Creating and Enchanting Magical Tools

Most, if not all, magical paradigms refer to the use of tools for certain tasks and the world of magical heroes is no different! Whether it’s a pen or brooch for a transformation sequence or a key to unlocking arcane magics, we can find many examples of magical items in mahō shōjo media that can be utilized in your own practice.

Please note that this is a non-exhaustive and non-canonical discussion of the creation and use of magical tools. If you’d like a deeper dive into a particular canon, feel free to send me a message and I’ll see what I can do!

It may seem obvious but the first step in creating a magical tool is determining what its use is. This not only contextualizes the tool within your practice but it can also help determine what is necessary for your needs. Ask yourself questions like:

What is this tool’s function?

Is this tool physical or purely aetheric?

What materials should it be made of?

Should this tool remain on my person at all times? If so, how do I carry it? If not, how should it be stored?

When working with mahō shōjo influences it is especially tempting to purchase detailed, manufactured replicas of your favorite characters’ items and while you can certainly go out and find something along those lines, I always recommend taking the time and energy to make your own tools. I find items that I have created myself are more powerful and reliable. (I’ve noticed this particularly so for objects that can be used for divination, such as cards and pendulums.)

And you do not need to be an experienced prop maker to create a potent magical object! While I do stress the importance of doing the creating yourself, don’t ever be ashamed to ask for help or assistance! As long as you have given it careful consideration and genuine energy, you’ll find that something that may look simple to others can carry immense power when you wield it.

Note: I would say the only caveats to creating your own magical tools outright would be if you were gifted a magical item or if you divined characteristics of an item and are yet to piece together all of its properties. If you were gifted a magical tool, or you are repurposing something that you already own, try to get as much information as you can about its creation and what energies it is imbued with (including any emotional or psychic attachments); if there are things about it that you do not deem necessary or appropriate for your work, I highly recommend cleansing it magically before use and find ways to reroot it to your practice or avoid using it all together.

After you have finished your creation, I recommend enchanting it to further connect it to you and your practice. This can be done in any number of ways but I think it is always best to do something that makes sense in context; for example:

Consecrate the item with water, oils, incense, etc. that is imbued with the energies you want it to carry. Consider associations such as celestial or elemental correspondences, if they apply. Just make sure it makes sense to you!

Is your work in dedication to a certain entity? Consider opening communication with it and get its input on how you should store and charge your new tool. They might also have opinions on how you should use it and if there are any voces magicae, or magic words, you might invoke.

If this is an item you associate with dreams or the astral, sleep with the tool placed under your pillow, under your bed, or somewhere close at hand like a nightstand. You can also consider charging it under moonlight after each use.

If you have an altar dedicated to this part of your practice, place your new tool on it and consecrate it as you see fit. By enchanting and/or storing it the proximity of other items that you have already associated with your work, you can easily establish it as part of your canon.

This post is part of my Magi Praxis series. If you have any suggestions for future topics, or you have attempted anything I have shared and want you share your experiences, please send me a message! I am always happy to go back and provide further explanation as well. ☆

Mass Manipulation

7th-level Enchantment Casting Time: 1 hour Range: 100ft radius Components: V,S,M (Dimond Dust, A clay tablet with a detailed list of commands and triggers, a focus worth at least 1000gp.) Duration: 1 year Classes: Wizard

Description: Dusting the tablet with diamond dust and begining the casting process you lay out a list of at up to ten commands and triggers and write them on the tablet. these commands and triggers may be as simple as "sneeze uncontrollably when you see a dog", or a morbid and specific as "when you see the local adventuring party, attempt to capture or kill them and bring them to me. Dead of Alive"

Then you may designate any number of creatures you can see to not be affected by the spell. After the hour of casting, each non-protected humanoid within 100ft of you must succeed a wisdom saving throw. on a failed save that humanoid gains the list of Commands and Triggers. A creature affected by this is unaware of the presence of the this list and does not know a spell has been cast on them.

At Higher Levels: You may cast this spell using a 9th level spellslot instead. If this spell is cast using a 9th level spellslot the duration is indefinate and you may create up to twenty commands and triggers.

Witch's Jewelry

One of the most personal and powerful magickal tools is the jewelry a witch wears. Jewelry can expand your auric field, enhances your energy in different ways, and can be enchanted for a specific purpose. Here's some helpful information one should consider when wearing magickal jewelry and deciding its placement.

Bracelets

Bracelets are representative of direct action,  and passion. The wrist you put your bracelet on matters:

• Projective (dominant) hand- Releases energy, communication, manifestation, active, interactive, external, conscious

• Receptive (passive) hand- Receives energy, healing, support, grounding, passive, intuitive, internal, subconscious

Rings

The rings you wear represent your skill, creativity, love, psychic ability, and more. Therefore, they can have a pretty big impact on spellwork and magickal crafts. The finger a ring is on has its own meaning, they are as follows:

• Thumb- Power, logic

• Index- Leadership, decisions

• Middle- Intellect, focus

• Ring- Love, ambition

• Pinky- Divination, intuition

Necklaces

Your necklace makes a statement and also hangs close to the heart. They stand for communication, luck, vitality, health, and protection. The closer to the throat your necklace is the more it affects communication. Necklaces that hangs closer to the stomach affect energy and emotion.

Necklaces have a couple of notable superstitions such as wearing your necklace clasp to the right is good luck. Furthermore, if the clasp slides to the front on the right side, someone is talking about you. To the left, someone is thinking of you currently.

Earrings/Facial Piercing

Piercings in the ears or face correlate to mind and thoughts as well as our connection to higher realms. The specific placement can add more focus to that energy.
