Talismans, to me, are a great way of helping a spell come to fruition. They are a tangible, solid object that we press our will into which, in turn, helps us to make a spell more real. I enjoy using candlewax and objects from nature; my talismans have a 70% positive impact on spells. What do you think about amulets and talismans?
Hello;
I made my own Taliman. Have you seen a one dollar Sacagawean American Native mother carrying her baby bundle on her back and, on the flip side, an Eagle in flight? Well, after awhile, a thought occurred to me, hmmm.., I could really use this as a Talisman. Here's my reasoning; Sacagawea is an American symbol of intrepid guidance, a bold mother with a new born carried on her back. The newborn symbol on a mother's back has many connotations itself; a mother's compassionate support, fearless protection of her young, faithful life supporter.
The flip side, an Eagle in flight; intrepid, diligent protection. Always faithful (Semper Fidelis).
So, I used these two very powerful symbolisms as a shield of protection amulet from harm, curses, etc.,
I glued a lock of my hair between and within the two sides of Sacagawea as a symbolism for her to support me, and with the two Eagles in flight showing outwards, as my guardians.
And, I made up a binding spell. Here it is;
"These vigil eagle sentinels; Protect me from any hate, accident, harm and, injury
Contained within, is a mother's devoted support, that keeps me safe from misfortune and misery.
I BIND these coins with thread of white,
crafting a protective shield of might,
surrounding me with divine love and light,
banishing from my proximity, any evil, curse, and dire plight.
I seal these coins with candle wax of white, to keep myself secure and tight.
By the power of 3 times 3, please, grant this right!
Also, there is a website I came across, that has free talismans to download ready to empower, fold (to carry), and make your own. There is one for Health, Money & Wealth, attracting Love and, one for the Moon (to heighten intuition and latent psychic abilities. All one has to do is right click to save and print later. I did this. Anyway, here it is;

AshStreetLove and Stoney; Both of your compliments mean very much to me. As fellow practitioners of the Occult Arts, they validate my work. I humbly and gratefully thank you very much.
Blessed be, a paradise for you now, here on this good earth.
Ooops, I need to mention in case someone decides to make a talisman as I have stated;
I lit a white candle, asked the ArchAngel Micha-el to protect my endeavor (the Arch Angel Michael is the Guardian of the South, his element is fire and he is noted as a Saint to Warriors), and I proceeded to;
I used white thread (the kind used in sewing). That's all I had at the moment. You can use white kite string or, white yarn. I started by gluing one end of the white thread in the middle of one of the coins (believe me, this is one useful tip).
As I bound the two coins with white thread (by winding the white thread around the two coins), I kept stating my binding spell, over and over and, I also thought of the many times I was humiliated, denied opportunities, had accidents, misfortunes, hated, cursed, etc., so that my emotions would strengthen my resolve of protection by these coins. I was patient. I kept stating my binding spell, and kept winding the white thread around the two coins until I completely covered the two coins and they became just one white disc. I first started with a CROSS design, then after awhile, I just starting covering the whole thing. So now, there is a bulk of a cross showing but, it's all covered and looks like white disc. I hope you understand this part.
Then, with the melted wax from my lit white candle, I stated; Excuse me St. Micha-el, please aid my magical work. Then, I dipped my "white disc" into the melted candle wax. This doesn't have to be pretty. As long as the whole disc is covered with white candle wax. The candle wax quickly dries. So, one has to keep on dipping until the task is accomplished.
Now, I just carry it in my jeans pocket. I can hold it in my hands if I want; no mess, no fuss.
At the very least, it's a good confidence booster.
As an epilogue; I have traveled distances in my car, as part of my business. And, I have not had any hardships whatsoever.
Now that it's a new Moon phase, this would be a good little project to perform on a Tuesday (the day of Mars, war, self-defense).
I've made talismans and such a similar, but more direct, way. These rituals are basically to call on the energy you wish to imbue int what ever object or spell based on your spiritual beliefs, as the ritual itself serve to the same end and focus the intent. That being said, I find it easier and more effective to Use the energy and my will to focus and manipulate it.
For example, when I made a protection one, I used a ring of mine and held it in my hands, focusing on the Light I intended to use. I then chanelled it, my focus on it and its great power and the feeling of the love and joy in its most pure eminate to and from me and bound it to the ring. It can also be used for banishings, spells and the like depending on the energy used.
Rituals are effective thougb I see them as a crutch that holds us back from grasping the power to do these things ones self.
It wasnt for my protection, and you misunderstand my meaning. Rituals, chanting or making spells all serve to activate the same energies and what not that our will alone can do. I've seen practioners who rely on them too much that they stop to grow in their experiences.
