One-Ingredient Spells

Sometimes, the simplest magic hits the hardest. One ingredient. One intention. One thread of energy pulling reality into place.

Not every spell needs a full altar setup. Sometimes, one thing is enough.

Here are a few one-ingredient spells you can actually use:

• Salt — sprinkle it at your door for protection.

• A candle — light it and focus on what you want to call in.

• A glass of water — leave it by your bed to absorb bad dreams.

• A key — carry it to open new opportunities.

• A feather — keep it on your altar for guidance and clarity.

• A coin — place it near your front door to attract money.

Keep it simple. The magic is in your intention, not the ingredients.

Simplicity is a spell of its own. Complexity is a choice, not a requirement.

What’s your favorite one-ingredient spell?

I put together a very small protection bundle, just a small vial of black salt & an amethyst, because one of our finance managers at work asked me if an amethyst would help her with protection. I gave her black salt for protection and and chevron amethyst because it's neat and if she's called to the stone then maybe it's the one she's meant to have right now.

When I gave it to her I told her how to make black salt for her own protective uses.

The theory of this is, since the little vial of black salt I gave her is simply corked, and not sealed, it can be uncorked, so it can kind of meander with the space she's in, absorbing & banishing any already existing negative energy while also rebuffing/repelling any new negative energy that would try to come into the space. It's as simple as "shake then uncork the jar to enact spell" type of cleansing.

To be fair, the vial I gave her is maybe less than an inch tall, it's a tiny thing, but she also now knows how to make her own black salt if she feels the need for more.

I really am the Work Witch.

Good Wishes Spell

Whether it's a current friend, former friend, or any other long distance relationship you may have, this simple spell was created to send good wishes from a distance.

Things you will need:

Birthday candle: wishes, personal growth, happiness in

Candle scribe/marker: for carving/writing the name of the target into the candle

Match/lighter: to light the candle

Compass: to aid in finding the right direction to blow the candle out in

Candle holder (optional): to hold the candle if you wish to let it burn down for a bit

While holding the candle, take a moment to focus on your target. Think of the wishes you'd like to send their way.

When you're ready, take your scribe/marker and carve/write your target's name into/on the candle.

To ensure that you send your wishes their way, use a compass to find the direction of your target's location (this doesn't have to be exact, a vague direction will work just fine).

If you're under a time constraints or wish to repeat this spell several times for the same person, blow the candle out immediately and store it in a safe place.

If you have more time and wish to let the candle burn down more, place it in a holder and blow it out just before it burns out.

Additional notes:

Due to this spell's simplicity, it should be easy to work it into larger workings/rituals if you desire.

Herbs, crystals, taglocks or other ingredients corresponding with your target and/or your intent can be added to further personalize this spell.

Always practice responsible fire safety. Birthday candles may be small and have a short burn time, but they can still be a fire hazard and should not be left unattended.

Just want to say, love your mimick au. I only found it like, an hour ago and I've devoured everything in the tag and I'm planning to do the same to the spellbound and monster hunter aus.

That said, in one of the mimick fanfics, Orion tells Prowl to leave him alone and to find a hobby, but a comic that (presumably) happens after this conversation when Orion meets Jazz, Orion seems to be back to working with Prowl. I thought the whole "leave me alone" order would go on infinitely because Orion didn't seem to have his goal locked down and he also never specified when to come back. So how did they return to working together? Did Orion find Prowl post-meltdown, or was it Prowl who just set an arbitrary amount of time before going back to Orion and going "so, how do you feel about defying god?" I just find Orion and Prowl's relationship so interesting in this au, simply because of how Orion doesn't seem to apply his morals about freedom and coexistence to Prowl despite the fact he's the one who points out that Prowl didn't include himself in his calculations, but at the same time, if he doesn't recognize Prowl's autonomy and only sees him as a tool (chatGPT style), he would have to accept that he's the one responsible for Prowl's actions because he's the one using him. But also also, Prowl encourages him to not take responsibility for all the immoral actions (like killing monsters to keep the Council's favor), which I think Orion does take up, but that would indirectly be accepting Prowl as a individual capable of making his own decisions, you know? It also the fact that Orion and Prowl both have different (and somewhat incompatible) ways of communicating. I was thinking when Orion asked Prowl to what he'd do to make the most amount of mechs happy, Prowl understood it literally: the majority of the population are non-monsters, so statistically, he'd focus on making non-monsters happy. But Orion doesn't want to make most mechs happy; he wants a diverse and equitable society, and that doesn't necessarily lead to happiness, especially in transition phases. Even in the academy, monsters are learning to compromise to live in a non-monster society; compromises are about restriction, which often aren't a source of happiness. But Orion equates that vision to happiness, and probably gets a bad impression of Prowl given "free reign" from his answer. It's great, it's so juicy.

And contrasts so well with how Prowl and Jazz interact and communicate with each other. Like how Prowl makes an attempt to learn hand language for Jazz in the same way he attempts to comfort Orion post-Shockwave demonification. But unlike Orion who has "Prowl is not alive" at the core of their dynamic, Jazz doesn't know and sees Prowl's attempt to learn as a genuine attempt to understand/communicate. You can argue that Prowl is just "programmed" to try and get more information and it's just efficient to ensure Jazz doesn't get carpal tunnel while working together, but you can also argue that we're all programmed to do that as well; small talk or bids for attention are behaviors/actions to build connection through information exchange that we are trained to do from formative years and general society. Which is to say, even if Prowl learns and tries to accommodate Jazz for mission purposes, it doesn't negate the fact that he is investing effort into communicating and building the foundation for a meaningful connection in the same way other people do. It's great, I'm having a blast with the whole AU.

Orion despite being afraid to continue his mission still has responsibilities in his Order so him and Prowl. Yeah hahah they just keep working together but purely on their usual legal tasks. I didn’t talk about the whole situation enough yet but basically Prowl never informed Orion about his new quest of suing God. Primarily because he knows that Orion definitely will try to stop him.

It’s kind of like. “What isn’t forbidden can automatically be considered allowed” mentality.

Also MY GOD YES. My favourite part of this au is reading asks like yours:0 Prowl exists in that thin line between being and not being a person capable of his own choices. Orion exists on the thin line between considering him being one of those options. He can’t see Prowl as a “real mech” because he knows for a fact it’s not true. But then seeing him as a tool means accepting that all questionable things he does are Orion’s responsibility.

At the end of the day Prowl is a metaphorical piece of fabric Orion uses to clean his consciousness. In his eyes Prowl isn’t alive enough to be fully blamed for all the bad things he does but he is also alive just enough for Orion to say “it was your fault. Not mine.”

Jazz doesn’t have that dilemma. Uh. Yet haha he will discover the truth eventually of course~. He thinks Prowl is obviously a real mech because in his world magic isn’t alive. It can create an illusion of a mech, sure, this is what all usual golems are, but it’s not smart or believable enough. It’s like one of those tests where all people think they can tell if they’re talking to an AI chat bot because “duh I would obviously know” and then fail to distinguish AI from a real person. Jazz is perceptive but he doesn’t know what to look for. All he knows is that Prowl is somehow doesn’t love anyone but seems to care about of things that aren’t people.

Also it’s a bit unrelated but I find it soooo interesting playing with the usual concepts of magic and technology. Because usually magic is perceived as something more “coming from your heart” and “connected with emotions” while technology tends to be more “soulless” and “emotionless”. And then we have the entire world of robots who think they are alive and magic isn’t :)

Nope Out Spell

💀🎃 SIMPLE SPELLS FOR SPOOKY SEASON 🎃💀

So that glamour spell went too well, spooky season got too spooky, and it's time to hit the eject button. No problem.

Go anywhere private (bathroom stall will do) and focus on the spell that you cast. Recall the moment that you cast the spell as clearly as possible.

Say, think, or sign:

I revoke you, I rebuke you I erase you, I undo you Whatever was raised is put back into earth Whatever I called goes home I undo you, I erase you I rebuke you, I revoke you That old path is undone That old spell is no more As I will it, so shall it be

Observe, believe, feel, understand, or know that you've sent a CANCEL SUBSCRIPTION notice to that spell.

It's probably going to take a little bit for the effects to fade, and I recommend you do anything that makes you feel really grounded, nonspooky, and feeling like yourself.

If you're really having a bad time and you need to knock it up a notch, take a shower and observe, believe, feel, understand, or know that the grounding, normal water is washing off any last trace of spooky stuff and washing it down the drain.

Absolutely nothing fancy as I'm a firm believer in not over complicating things. But like all of us, I'm in need of some financial boosting after my vehicle unexpectedly bit the dust. I'm in the process of weighing out my new-used vehicle options and seeing what works best with my current finances, but a little extra cash couldn't hurt at the end of the day.

used to, ghost would always sleep on his side facing the door with his back almost pressed to the wall. in a room where the bed isn't in the corner? he'd either move the bed or sleep on the floor in the corner.

it doesn't take long for soap to figure out his lieutenant's sleep pattern and does his best to quietly help. the first time they have to share a bed (obvi before they're together cause this is fanfic, how else would it go) neither is really sure what to do.

the bed is in the corner, but during the typical "who takes the bed, alright fine we both will" argument, they come to an impasse. neither will let the other take the floor nor do they know the best way for both to be on the bed. either ghost has someone in the way of him and the door, or has someone at his back that he can't see.

they do eventually land on (without discussion bc ghost is a prideful bastard) soap taking the wall side, but ghost is still nervous. he surprises himself by being much more comfortable than he thought he would, it feeling less like there's a stranger right behind him and more like soap is watching his back for him, even though he knows soap is asleep. ghost himself doesn't really sleep, but that is to be expected.

something something they get together and ghost realizes he's most comfortable knowing soap is there, not to protect him cause he's still to prideful for that, but to help watch his blind spot without having to push himself against the wall.

(also ghost likes being the little spoon. hmm? what? who said that...)

sign language can and should be used as a method for spell casting. that is all
