Semi-Permanent Tattoos- Good for Sigils

Image

This trick I learned is fantastic for writing sigils, runes, spells, etc. on your body. The great thing about this technique is that it is waterproof, stays on as long as you want, is easy to do, and can be scrubbed off easily if you so desire.

Materials

1. Hairspray

2. Waterproof liquid eyeliner

3. Something to clean up the tattoo with (napkins, tissues, etc.)

4. What ever sigil, symbol, rune, etc. you want

Procedure

Step One: Write the symbol you wish wherever you want

Step Two: Let it dry

Step Three: Spray a liberal amount of hairspray on the area

Step Four: Dab around the tattoo with your napkin to clean the edges

Step Five: Let it dry again

Step Six: Activate the symbols by meditating or energizing yourself with emphasis on the symbol of your choosing. (Example: Writing a peace sigil on your wrist, meditate with the intention of bringing yourself peace)

I personally have been loving this technique. It’s cheap (for a college witch like myself, this is a plus). It’s effective. It’s not culturally appropriation. It’s semi-permanent, so if you want to change your sigil or whatever, you can. I’ve been using this for bringing myself internal strength and growth, and it’s been working wonders for me.

Something that I’ve noticed that helps is to make your atmosphere as witchy as possible. Dim the lights, play some music that makes you feel witchy, whatever empowers you. Try to place the sigil somewhere you will see it often. Let the magic slowly wave over you through the day.

Blessed be, you lovely badasses.

“Tied to the Tracks You Laid” Curse

This is a curse I did back in May for an unsavoury group of people. I am actually queuing this from that time frame, so maybe I can update you on how it went if you’d like me to!

This plays on the actions of the people/person you are cursing. It gives them a taste of the bitter, rusty “tracks” they have set themselves upon. It is a binding ritual, so I suggest keeping it accessible, whether how I advise or otherwise. Or not. That’s your call.

What You’ll Need:
  • Railroad Spike (I found mine. You could also choose something similar, such as a stake or large nail. If you can, get it rusty. I know there are ways to speed this up depending on what metals you use)
  • Twine/thread/yarn
  • Paper/envelope with taglocks folded inside (I used some taglocks including names, aliases, written dialogue of theirs, etc. If you have pictures, hair, etc., those will be even better!)
  • Opaque black box or bag
  • Cayenne pepper (spiciness, being in “the hot seat”)
  • Black pepper (coughing, confusion, dust clouds)
  • Onion flakes (irritation, smelliness)
  • Salt

This curse is actually fairly quick, despite the number of ingredients. Most of the negative events and specific issues you are sending to the target are already decided upon, and don’t require too much specification if done correctly.

To begin, gather your supplies. First, assemble your taglock pocket, and use this chant to further tie it to your target:

I bind these bits to the human they’re from,

A person/group called [full name, title, etc] that has incurred my wrath.

I dip this taglock in the energy they hold,

And will these remains to be enough.

Add the cayenne pepper, black pepper, and onion flakes to this pocket, and close it. Then, shake it for a few seconds, building up the energy and agitating what lies within.

Take up the railroad spike and turn it upside down, so the heavy top is facing the ground. Tightly bind this paper pocket to the spike using your string, and as you do, use this chant for as long as it takes to do so:

You are tied to the tracks you laid,

For the horrible decisions you’ve made.

If possible, cover the paper entirely so it is not visible at all.

Now, flip around the spike so that it is back to its upright position. Turn it counterclockwise until it is facing downwards again. Use this chant:

Flipped and turned your senses are muddled,

Bruised and fatigued, your successes are puddled.

Hit the top of the spike and visualize the curse flowing out of it, towards the target. It is still connected, but now has been completed and sent to your wrongdoer. Place it inside of the black container you have, and keep salt nearby it to prevent any energy getting to you if it does leech out of the container.

If you wanted to, you could continue using this spike as a quick curse method, adding on to it as you curse other people with their own problematic behaviours.

If you ever want to undo the curse, you need to remove the string, and separate each ingredient from one another. The contents of the envelope should be as separated as possible. Cleanse and dispose of all of these elements.
