Sweet Dreams Spell & Jar

What you will need:

Bay leaf (for rune Svefnthorn + name) (2)

Hair or fingernail clippings (3)

Incense (Lavender, Sage…)

Smudge all ingredients with incense (especially the inside of the jar)

Light the 3 white candles and put them in a triangle shape

While you fill up the Jar, chant these words as often as you‘d like (I did it 3 times): „With this Jar next to me, there is nothing bad to dream. I am safe while I sleep, there is nothing hurting me.“ - during chanting, imagine what kind of dreams you‘d like to have!

Seal it with the purple candle

The numbers are meant to show you the order in which we put the ingredients in the jar

Put it next to your Bed / or under your Bed

Sleep well 😴

psst.. shake the jar before you sleep and imagine the kind of dreams you‘d like to have to reactivate it

“Becoming a witch is an awakening, a remembering, an initiation. It’s a chant to ‘come home, come home, come home’, because even when you feel like you’re lost, you’re not.”

— Gabriela Herstik, from “Craft: How to Be a Modern Witch,” released c. 2018
