How to make your own functional talisman for good luck

Since ancient times, people have believed that certain objects can protect them from dangers, illnesses and black magic, as well as attract good luck, happiness, wealth and other benefits. These things are called talismans. It is customary to carry them with you or keep them at home to be under the protection of higher powers. People who do not yet have a personal magical protector need to figure out how to make a talisman themselves. After its appearance, they will immediately feel how life began to change for the better.

The difference between a talisman and a talisman

The words "amulet" and "talisman" are considered equivalent and used as synonyms.

But the difference between them, although small, is:

1. The amulet protects a person from negative magical effects, illnesses and misfortunes. It can be material (pectoral cross, runic stave, horseshoe on the front door, etc. ) or immaterial (plot, whisper).
2. A talisman is an object with supernatural powers that simultaneously protects against problems and negative energies, and attracts happiness and good luck. It could be an object you carry or keep at home, or a living creature such as a cat.

Will a homemade talisman work?

To become the owner of an effective protective item, you can do it yourself.

According to esotericists, an amulet made by one's own hands has more pronounced magical properties than one that was given or purchased.

When a person does something protective for himself, he fills it with his energy as he works. Thanks to this, the talisman begins to perceive him as its owner and help him in all matters.

But it will be possible to achieve such an effect as long as the person creates the amulet in a good mood, without holding a grudge or grudge against anyone.

If he starts transmitting negativity into the universe, he will fill the magical attribute with negative energy. Such a thing will not be able to protect against troubles and attract luck.

What can talismans and amulets be made of?

In the manufacture of amulets, raw materials of natural origin are used: wood, natural threads, fur, leather, etc. These materials perfectly absorb negative energy from the outside world, protecting the owner from its destructive effects.

Wood

An affordable and effective material for making amulets at home. Bracelets, pendants and other magical attributes are made from it.

In order for a homemade talisman to maximize its magical properties, the energy of the material is taken into account when making it.

Women are advised to choose female trees (poplar, cherry, birch, etc. ), while representatives of the stronger sex choose male trees (oak, hazel).

Additionally, each tree has its own supernatural properties:

• Rowan protects from evil spirits;
• alder protects against adultery, helps those who do good deeds;
• cherry preserves youth;
• aspen protects against evil spirits;
• hazelnut attracts wealth, protects against thieves;
• Oak protects from the evil eye and curses, strengthens the energy field.

Coat

Natural fur contains the energy of a dead animal, so it should be used with caution to create an amulet. This material will help self-confident people, accustomed to taking risks and showing aggression, to achieve their goals.

A harmless person with an easy-going character will not benefit from a skin amulet.

Genuine Leather

Leather should be treated with caution for the same reason as skin. It is not suitable for a kind-hearted person who prefers a quiet life with family.

Leather amulets are the choice of those who are used to walking on a knife's edge.

Burlap and natural fabric

Fabric talismans are easy to sew with your own hands. Most often they are made in the form of protective dolls. These products are suitable for everyone, regardless of gender, age and type of activity.

Threads and ribbons

Natural threads and ribbons are universal materials from which amulets can be made for people of any age, gender and occupation. They are used to make protective dolls, bracelets, car pendants and other protective attributes.

Herbs, flowers and wild fruits

Many plants have magical powers that a person can use for their own benefit.

Properties of herbs, berries and flowers in talismans:

• St. John's wort and hawthorn protect against evil spirits;
• rosehip gives well-being, transforms negative energy into positive;
• Rowan protects against magical effects;
• elderberry cures diseases, protects against witchcraft;
• elm helps to acquire valuable knowledge;
• verbena develops the gift of foresight, attracts the opposite sex, heals and protects from evil spirits;
• elecampane protects from damage and the evil eye, attracts love, wards off diseases;
• Ivan da Marya helps to preserve love and fidelity;
• chamomile relieves anxiety and attracts love;
• nettle removes damage, protects against witchcraft and the evil eye, gives courage;
• Clover and sage bring good luck and prosperity.

Stones and minerals

Precious and semi-precious stones are not the most suitable material for making a talisman with your own hands, as they require processing that is impossible to do without special tools and skills.

But if there is such a possibility, the master needs to take into account the compatibility of your horoscope with the selected gem.

Wax

Beeswax has long been used to create amulets against damage, everyday problems and illness. For protective purposes, candles and figurines made of melted wax are used.

Salt dough

Salt is famous for its ability to absorb negativity, which is why it is used to protect against the evil eye and witchcraft. By adding it to the dough, a plastic material with magical properties is obtained, suitable for creating protective figurines.

In order for the salt dough talisman to bring the desired benefits, additional ingredients are added:

• garlic - protects against the wiles of evil spirits;
• sunflower seeds - used in children's amulets to protect the child from illness;
• egg - helps those who dream of procreation;
• millet – protects against the evil eye;
• poppy - fulfills desires;
• cereals and beans - attract wealth and give physical strength.

Rules for creating a talisman or amulet for good luck

When making a protective item yourself, you must adhere to the following rules:

1. Perform all actions alone, without being distracted by extraneous sounds and activities.
2. While working, mentally communicate with the talisman, ask for help and fill it with your positive energy.
3. Create an amulet in a room lit by moonlight or sunlight. Don't sit down to work when the sky is cloudy.
4. As you work, read a prayer addressed to your guardian angel, or "Our Father. "
5. Believe in the magical power of the crafted item.

What to do if the talisman doesn't work or you can't

The amulet created with your own hands should manifest its magical properties within a few days after the start of use. If it doesn't work, it means that mistakes were made during its manufacture.

Most often, the lack of results is faced by those who made the talisman in a bad mood or were distracted by extraneous thoughts during work. In this case, it is worth trying to create a magical thing again.

In a situation where you cannot make an amulet, do not despair. You can order its production from a master or purchase a ready-made protective symbol.

Talisman activation

Any homemade or purchased talisman must be charged with magical power before use. They do this with the help of 4 elements: Water, Earth, Air and Fire.

It is advisable to carry out all activation steps in one day. In the evening, after the ceremony, you need to put the product under your pillow and go to bed. In the morning you can start using the talisman.

How to use

The amulet will help if it is used correctly and periodically cleansed of the negative energy it absorbs during use. In addition, you need to learn to say goodbye to a magical attribute when it ceases to fulfill its protective function.

Dressing

When using a talisman, the following rules must be observed:

1. Try to use the protection symbol every day for at least a few hours. It must be constantly powered by the owner's energy.
2. Use or carry the talisman with you whenever you need support from higher powers.
3. No one other than the owner should wear or hold their amulet.
4. Hide a magical item from prying eyes. Thanks to this, it will protect its owner better and longer.

Cleansing the talisman

The amulet tends to absorb negative energy directed by other people against its owner. When he becomes overwhelmed by negativity, his defenses weaken and he stops helping.

A cleansing ritual will help restore the magical properties of the talisman, with the help of which it will be possible to rid it of accumulated energy.

To do this you need:

1. Sprinkle salt in an even layer on the bottom of the glass container.
2. Place the amulet on the plate.
3. Cover with salt and leave for 12 hours, then remove and shake.

This ritual is repeated every time the amulet stops helping.

How to part with a talisman

When the amulet breaks or tears, it indicates that it is so full of negative energy that it can no longer fulfill its protective mission. A failed attribute must be discarded.

You can do this in 2 ways:

1. Burn in a fire or in the flame of a wax candle (suitable for items of fabric, paper or other materials that burn well).
2. Go to a lake and throw it into the water (this method is chosen for heavy objects that sink easily).

Before getting rid of the amulet, you need to thank him for the help he provided all the time and apologize for having to say goodbye to him. After the ritual, you can make a new amulet.
