Thank you, this was a great little tutorial. I agree that using your intuition for ingredients is important. The one thing I don't like is the idea of littering. If a jar is going to be thrown into a river or buried, it would be best to use a container and ingredients that are biodegradable and won't damage the earth. Glass and salt for example should be properly disposed of.
Don't stress too much.... honestly they're pretty safe and if you do mess up it will become a GREAT learning tool for you and your practice. If you want to get really good at magic, you NEED to mess up so don't let that fear stop you!

Hi!! im new into witchcraft and i have a question!! how to do a spell jar for someone? I want to do a protection spell for my friend but idk how )): Do i make the spell jar in the intent of my friend or something else.. (sorry for my english its not my first language)
Hello Haru, Yes, make the spell jar with your friend in mind. Envision them in a bubble of protection, incorporate their name on a piece of paper inside the jar. There are loads of ways to really weave them into the spell. Have fun!
Hi! How are u? I have a question- if I’m learning a bit about ingredients that you put in the spell jar -like rose marine cinnamon salt and their intention can I make my own recipe for spell jars from what I’ve learned? I mean is there some things that go only with another ? Xoxo
Yes you absolutely can, that's what I'd LOVE for you to do! Make sure to double check the ingredients align with your purpose. I woudn't put lavender (calm, sleep) with chilli flakes (speed, lust, energy) for example as they have opposite uses.
You'll want to use intentional ingredients. Make use of what you already have on hand before going out to purchase new things. Choose your intent for the spell jar, and then choose herbs, crystals, resins etc. that coincide with the energy of that intent or goal you're wanting to achieve. Using chamomile for example, in a motivation or energy jar will not work, the energies cancel each other out as chamomile is calming and relaxing.
I was wondering if you can use other ways of cleansing your bottles/jars in place of smoke? I know you can use sound and other things to cleanse spaces, does that work with spell jars?
You can use scented candles... I always say to use whatever you have on hand rather than going out to buy special materials. You'll want the scent to coincide with your intent too. If it's lavender scented and you're doing a money spell that probably won't work for your benefit. Lavender for a sleep spell however, would be perfect.
other than cleansing your area, do you need to do anything to before you make a spell jar? i want to make one but i just want to be fully prepared beforehand
Hey! Could you help me a bit? please? English is not my first language so I'm sorry if the questions I'll ask will we already answered in a video I'm just lost.. I am a beginner and i wondered. When you are making a spell jar does it matter what materials you put in first? Another question for example i made a protection spell jar and I want my friend to be protected so can i give them the protection jar? Will it effect them? If you could answer those questions I'll be so thankful 🥺❤️✨ .
The order of ingredients does not matter to me, it is personal preference how you put them in. You can definitely make a protection jar for your friend. Maybe write their name on a piece of paper an place it inside?
If casting a circle forms part of your practice, the you certainly can. Personally, I don't include them in what I do, so would say, it's not necessary.

Hi!! Baby witch here I was wondering if you could throw the jar away instead of burying it because I don’t have that many places to bury it and I’m scared my parents will find it. Thank you!
@@SuburbanWitchery ok! Thank you sooo much! I’ve felt so connected to witchcraft my whole life but was raised in a Christian household and I’m so happy that I can finally be me! Well...kinda..I still have to hide it from my parents 🥲
@@therealsteveharveyx2299 I'm so glad to hear that. It is always a relief to live as our authentic selves! One day you may be able to be yourself around your parents too. It isn't easy coming out of the broom closet (trust me, I was a nervous wreck with my parents) but it was worth it (for me at least). Good luck!
Some great herbs to have on hand are Rosemary, Lavendar, Rose Petals, Cinnamon, Orange Peel, Clove, Star Anise, Bay Leaf and there is so many more but any of those are a great beginners point. It all depends on the intention for the spell jar too. Maybe choose your first intention and gather herbs from there?
@SuburbanWitchery I need to protect myself. I was thinking of mixing, Salt, Black Pepper, Cloves, Garlic and lemon together. Then use the smoke from a dead candle to clean the bottle
Yep that sounds perfect - perhaps use dried lemon peel as adding lemon oil can introduce moisture into the jar which isn't always a good idea. @@deonbritz9284
Depends on the ingredient. Feel into its energy, and if in doubt, there's no real harm in cleansing it all beforehand. If, however, you use flowers/herbs from the garden, I'd say they're perfectly fine as they are.
Generally you know the spell is complete once you've seen the results or if the wax starts to fall off the jar or the inside looks a bit off. You can then empty the contents into the bin, and recycle the jar. If the jar doesn't contain salt or other harmful ingredients for the soil, then you can bury the contents (close to your home if it was a spell to bring something to you, far from your home if it was a hex breaker or something like that).
What spell should I do first and do you have any tips on what to buy? I’m going to this store specifically for this kind of stuff (it’s called east to west I think) and want to know some commonly used herbs and gemstones I should get. Also is there anything specific I should know? I’m just getting into this kind of stuff and it’s hard to find good resources since I find it quite annoying to read through huge articles about it
Hey! I wanna make a little self-love spelljar for my crush who's sort of into witchy things, but I'm a little scared of something happening to me if I don't know how to make them correctly. Do you know anything about this?
Are you making it so they have more self love for themselves? There's not a lot that can go wrong. I'd recommend items like rose petal, rose quarts, clear quartz, violet flower or leaf, neroli essential oil, pink or green candle wax, green aventurine and maybe even a self love sigil on a piece of paper inside the jar (or etched into the wax top).
What do you recommend spell jars for? I've heard some people say they're not recommended because they contain whatever energy you're attracting and the point is to send them into existence. What you think of this! Thank you!
I love them, but not for everything. With Witchcraft, it's always going to be 'each to their own' in terms of how you practice and what makes sense for you. Spell jars are pracical because the spell is contained, there's less mess, it's portable, you can take it with you and I see it almost like creating an amulet for your intent. I wouldn't use a spell jar for road opening, block busting, hex breaking etc. but definitely for protection, abundance, safe travel, sleep etc.
Hello and welcome! Yes absolutely, you can search for the correspondences of the spices you have on hand. Pick ones that work with your intention and go from there :D
is it ok to use elmers glue or not use wax or anything like that at all? i want to make spell jars but im intimidated by the permanence of using wax and i want to reuse the jar and stones in the jar as well.
I honestly don't use a tonne of wax, and depending on the type you use it comes off quite easy. But in answer to your question, you don't need to seal it like this if it doesn't feel right.
I read somewhere that we can shake the jar when the spell is done. Can I do this since I don’t really have anywhere to bury it? Plus I’d like to keep them because they’re cute!
hello! im very new to this, so please forgive my ignorance lol. would it be okay to make a spell jar for someone else? my very good friend is having a surgery soon, and I was thinking of making a few jars for healing, anxiety relief, support, self love, etc to give to them. is there a certain way to go about this? thanks in advance!!
Yep! Consider asking them in advance if they'd be open to you doing that. A charm bag is another option, especially if it's going under their pillow or in their pocket.
Firstly it depends what the jar is for. I don't recommend spell jars for all intentions as they're a slower, longer form of magic. Salt itself is clearing and protective but it won't charge the crystals, actually, some crystals can corrode with salt.
I have very vivid dreams about things and they always come true in some way and I've been having this deep feeling about my ex and it's been months since we broke up and we didnt talk for 6 and then we reconnected and it was like we never left and then 2 weeks later we stopped talking completely again but I feel this really strong connection to him and i thought i was over him and i didnt think about it for a very long time but i had a dream that we were in the street at night and we were alot older and we talked and It was like i was literally looking into the future is there any spell or something that i can do to get clarity on this or any advice you may have could i be connected to him for a reason ?
Have a watch of my video on Soul Mates and Twin Flames. He may be a member of your soul group, hence the connection. OR you may have a soul contract together to work on healing something in this lifetime. Divination can assist in finding the reason.
Technically you don't need to. I like it for a) aesthetic purposes b) additional energy within the colour of the candle and the energy expended in adding it c) sealing purposes so the spell can't be tampered with
When sealing a spell jar with wax, can it be any candle, specific unscented candles, or are they special candles? Edit: and if I have the wax for stamping, could I use that for extra colors?
You can use any wax you feel called to. I haven't used stamping wax so unsure how sufficiently it holds, might even be better than other candles. I would say to use the unscented ones solely because they're cheaper.
If I put gemstones in my jar, can I cleanse & re-use those 2? Only been in the craft a short time & gonna do my 1st jar spell today. How long should my jar be sealed?
Hello! You'll want to keep the jar sealed until you know the spell/intention has worked OR until you see the wax falling off the jar or contents becoming a bit icky. In that case, recycle any items that you can (gemstones can be cleansed literally and spiritually) and re-used. Bury everything else, as long as it is non-toxic to the environment (be careful of burying salt as it can upset the soil microbiome). Jars can be reused too.
Hi! I'm just a beginner, Can I use a white candle to seal my protection jar? Is that the same as sealing using white wax? Lastly how long do I keep the protection Jar?
Yes you can, black is another great option too. Keep it as long as you need it, that's the beauty of jar spells, they keep for a long time. If it feels like it's not working so well after a while, give it a shake or pop it on your altar to charge it up.
@@SuburbanWitchery thanks a lot, will definitely do this. Btw my boyfriend is also interested making a protection jar can we make it at the same time? I mean will it still work if I'm casting a spell on my jar while my bf is also doing the same thing? Or do I need to do this alone?
Thank you for this video! I was wondering, for how long do you advice to keep the jar before burying it or reusing it? I'd like to give one to my partner as a present
Great! So let's say it's supposed to fill the person with motivation, can they keep it throughout their whole academic path? I'm sorry, I'm new to this kind of spell work
I love your videos and I would like to try spell jars so this one was very helpful. Question, do you have a video on how someone could make black salt without using a cauldron and/or incence ashes? Or in case that it could be replaced with some other kind of salt, what kind of salt would that be? Thank you in advance xx
Candles aren't typically used for cleansing in that manner. I recomend smoke cleansing for bottles OR simply cleaning with soap and water and imagining any spiritual residue being removed will do tha trick too.
Here is a link to get some like what you see in the video www.amazon.com.au/gp/offer-listing/B00ZWV0LP6/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=247&creative=1211&creativeASIN=B00ZWV0LP6&linkCode=am2&tag=suburbanwitch-22&linkId=ec8a1c8aa8cbbf3bb588204fe9329052
Hello! If it's done its job, I recommend burying the contents on your property (unless you used salt, then pop it in the trash). Clean the jar and recycle or reuse :)
What if you cant find a place to bury the bottle afterwards? I live in a city and I cant really go to a public park and start digging a small hole. Theres homeless people and also depending on the city they try to keep the grass nice so I dont really have a place to bury these.
@@SuburbanWitchery oh awesome thank you 😊 one other question, do you ever cleanse your things with salt? I read that you can do that but I don't know how
It will depend on the intention. There are a few hints in this video as to using herbs and plants that correspond based on colour, shape and usage. Same goes with crystals. Google is your friend and slowly, over time, you'll figure out what works and doesn't work for you.
Yes generally. Lot's of Yellow and Orange for a happy jar. Orange peel for joy, lemon peel for happiness. Maybe some citrine, yellow jade and clear quartz too.
@@lunavalencia35 it's complete when it works. If you do a money spell, and don't get any money, it hasn't worked. Once you get a sum of money, it's done its job.
Yep - if it is a gift, give it freely and let them know how they can dispose of it if they wish to (and how to do that). But I don't recommend making spell jars 'about' people without their permission.
If that is something that you ordinarily do when performing rituals, workings and spells then yes. Personally, I don't cast circles and they don't form a part of my practice so I don't, but Witchcraft is so personal to the practitioner, you need to go with what works for you.

@@SuburbanWitchery thank you so much for replying!!
@Brandon Vanderpols STOP YOUR ON ALMOST ALL THE COMMENTS IT ANNOYING JUST PLEASE STOP
Hi! How are u? I have a question- if I’m learning a bit about ingredients that you put in the spell jar -like rose marine cinnamon salt and their intention can I make my own recipe for spell jars from what I’ve learned? I mean is there some things that go only with another ? Xoxo
Yes you absolutely can, that's what I'd LOVE for you to do! Make sure to double check the ingredients align with your purpose. I woudn't put lavender (calm, sleep) with chilli flakes (speed, lust, energy) for example as they have opposite uses.
@@SuburbanWitchery thank you!!!
You are indeed a powerful witch,please can add sigil of deity or sealor pentacles of Solomon in it?if possible ,let me know. Thanks
You can definitely add any sigils for any deitiees and seals if you wish.
I was wondering for spell jars could I use any ingredients or do I have to use specific ingredients
You'll want to use intentional ingredients. Make use of what you already have on hand before going out to purchase new things. Choose your intent for the spell jar, and then choose herbs, crystals, resins etc. that coincide with the energy of that intent or goal you're wanting to achieve. Using chamomile for example, in a motivation or energy jar will not work, the energies cancel each other out as chamomile is calming and relaxing.
I was wondering if you can use other ways of cleansing your bottles/jars in place of smoke? I know you can use sound and other things to cleanse spaces, does that work with spell jars?
Yes absolutely. Sound is excellent, also crystals or moonlight. Whatever feels right for you.
Lovely Jar~ Thank you for another fantastic video!!
Thanks MaryJane! :)
thank you so much for the help it’s very appreciated
You're welcome Grace
Can you cleanse bottles with candle smoke?
You could, I haven't done it myself as I prefer using incense or herbs. Potentially the smoke from a white candle however would work nicely.
can i use scented candles?also can i use containers for a spell jar
You can use scented candles... I always say to use whatever you have on hand rather than going out to buy special materials. You'll want the scent to coincide with your intent too. If it's lavender scented and you're doing a money spell that probably won't work for your benefit. Lavender for a sleep spell however, would be perfect.
other than cleansing your area, do you need to do anything to before you make a spell jar? i want to make one but i just want to be fully prepared beforehand
Just make sure you're grounded, centred and calm :)
@@SuburbanWitchery tysm
i don't have lil crystals chips, do i need to use them or its optional?
All ingredients are totally optional.
Hey! Could you help me a bit? please?
English is not my first language so I'm sorry if the questions I'll ask will we already answered in a video I'm just lost..
I am a beginner and i wondered.
When you are making a spell jar does it matter what materials you put in first?
Another question for example i made a protection spell jar and I want my friend to be protected so can i give them the protection jar? Will it effect them?
If you could answer those questions I'll be so thankful 🥺❤️✨ .
The order of ingredients does not matter to me, it is personal preference how you put them in.
You can definitely make a protection jar for your friend. Maybe write their name on a piece of paper an place it inside?
@@SuburbanWitchery Thank you so much 🥺✨❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Is there a guide to what each ingredient means or corresponds with?
The encyclopaedia of magical herbs by scott cunningham is a great resource
Can u use rain water to cleans the bottle
Yes you can if that is your intent when gathering the water.
"all good in the hood" I love it lol
haha I didn't even realise I said that :P
Could I make a spell jar some someone else and what would I have to do different is so ?? I’ve tried looking for answers online but no help.
You definitely can! I've gifted little protection bottles and sleep bottles before.
Do you need to cast a circle when making a spell jar?
If casting a circle forms part of your practice, the you certainly can. Personally, I don't include them in what I do, so would say, it's not necessary.
I know this video is oabout a year ago. I see many make a spell Ha but how do you use a spell jar once it is made?
Depends what it's for. A sleep jar may be kept by your bed, a protection jar in your car or handbag. Shake every so often to reactivate
I will use sage to cleanse my jar right?
I personally don't use white sage, but other varieties will be fine.

Hi!! Baby witch here I was wondering if you could throw the jar away instead of burying it because I don’t have that many places to bury it and I’m scared my parents will find it. Thank you!
Yes of course! Always do so responsibly, so empty the contents in the bin and then recycle the jar appropriately.
@@SuburbanWitchery thank you! One more question if I empty the contents does it break the spell
@@therealsteveharveyx2299 Yes, I'd be doing that once it's been completed.
@@SuburbanWitchery ok! Thank you sooo much! I’ve felt so connected to witchcraft my whole life but was raised in a Christian household and I’m so happy that I can finally be me! Well...kinda..I still have to hide it from my parents 🥲
@@therealsteveharveyx2299 I'm so glad to hear that. It is always a relief to live as our authentic selves! One day you may be able to be yourself around your parents too. It isn't easy coming out of the broom closet (trust me, I was a nervous wreck with my parents) but it was worth it (for me at least). Good luck!
If I wanted to reuse the bottle could I just throw out the contents in the garbage? Or do they specifically have to be buried
Yep, you definitely can. Just be cautious of cleaning the bottle thoroughly with both soap and water as well as an energetic method like smoke.
Can I prepare it with rice cinnamon sticks thyme a rose petal, thyme, rice
yes you can
Love your energy:)
Thanks Sabrina!
What are some things I should get to start doing spell jars? Like herbs and stuff I’m still learning:)
Some great herbs to have on hand are Rosemary, Lavendar, Rose Petals, Cinnamon, Orange Peel, Clove, Star Anise, Bay Leaf and there is so many more but any of those are a great beginners point. It all depends on the intention for the spell jar too. Maybe choose your first intention and gather herbs from there?
@@SuburbanWitchery okay! Thank u
2:02 What can I use if I don't have all the ingredients or rosemary
What is your intent for your spell jar?
@SuburbanWitchery I need to protect myself. I was thinking of mixing, Salt, Black Pepper, Cloves, Garlic and lemon together. Then use the smoke from a dead candle to clean the bottle
Yep that sounds perfect - perhaps use dried lemon peel as adding lemon oil can introduce moisture into the jar which isn't always a good idea.

@@gunjanoberoi3137 I have a service available for questions like this; www.suburbanwitchery.com/shop/p/quick-fix-spell-advice-24hr-turnaround
Question, should I cleanse my spell ingredients as well? Thx💗✨
Depends on the ingredient. Feel into its energy, and if in doubt, there's no real harm in cleansing it all beforehand. If, however, you use flowers/herbs from the garden, I'd say they're perfectly fine as they are.
@@SuburbanWitchery ok! Tysm💗
Why don't you light the candle and drip it that way instead of holding a flame to it? Is there a difference?
Not really. I often like to use the candle for something else later and this way it's not 'burnt' yet.
When and how to we empty or get rid of spell jars? How long should we wait? What to and not to do
Generally you know the spell is complete once you've seen the results or if the wax starts to fall off the jar or the inside looks a bit off. You can then empty the contents into the bin, and recycle the jar.
If the jar doesn't contain salt or other harmful ingredients for the soil, then you can bury the contents (close to your home if it was a spell to bring something to you, far from your home if it was a hex breaker or something like that).
Could you recommend a spell bottle for making neighbors leave me alone?
No, it will take too long. Spell jars are slower spells. I'd recommend a freezer spell for you instead.
What spell should I do first and do you have any tips on what to buy? I’m going to this store specifically for this kind of stuff (it’s called east to west I think) and want to know some commonly used herbs and gemstones I should get. Also is there anything specific I should know? I’m just getting into this kind of stuff and it’s hard to find good resources since I find it quite annoying to read through huge articles about it
It all depends on your intent. Common spell jars are for self love, prosperity, peaceful sleep, protection etc.
i made 2 but i forgot to cleanse the second one.. is it fatal(i put clear quarts, black tourmaline, basil, cinnamon and salt for protection)
It's totally fine if you forget to cleanse it. It's a nice to have, not a necessity
Hey! I wanna make a little self-love spelljar for my crush who's sort of into witchy things, but I'm a little scared of something happening to me if I don't know how to make them correctly. Do you know anything about this?
Are you making it so they have more self love for themselves? There's not a lot that can go wrong. I'd recommend items like rose petal, rose quarts, clear quartz, violet flower or leaf, neroli essential oil, pink or green candle wax, green aventurine and maybe even a self love sigil on a piece of paper inside the jar (or etched into the wax top).
@@SuburbanWitchery Thank you!!
Hi, I tried doing a money jar but I don't think it's working
Spell jars take a while to come through. Have you watched my video on how to know if your spell jar isn't working?
What do you recommend spell jars for? I've heard some people say they're not recommended because they contain whatever energy you're attracting and the point is to send them into existence. What you think of this! Thank you!
I love them, but not for everything. With Witchcraft, it's always going to be 'each to their own' in terms of how you practice and what makes sense for you. Spell jars are pracical because the spell is contained, there's less mess, it's portable, you can take it with you and I see it almost like creating an amulet for your intent. I wouldn't use a spell jar for road opening, block busting, hex breaking etc. but definitely for protection, abundance, safe travel, sleep etc.
Hello there, I am a new witch. Are there any spell jars that only use spices?
Hello and welcome! Yes absolutely, you can search for the correspondences of the spices you have on hand. Pick ones that work with your intention and go from there :D
is it ok to use elmers glue or not use wax or anything like that at all? i want to make spell jars but im intimidated by the permanence of using wax and i want to reuse the jar and stones in the jar as well.
I honestly don't use a tonne of wax, and depending on the type you use it comes off quite easy. But in answer to your question, you don't need to seal it like this if it doesn't feel right.
I read somewhere that we can shake the jar when the spell is done. Can I do this since I don’t really have anywhere to bury it? Plus I’d like to keep them because they’re cute!
I actually shake the jar to 'reinvigorate it' and give it a boost. As always, whatever feels right to you and your practice is the way to go :)
Thank you!
You're so welcome hun!
hello! im very new to this, so please forgive my ignorance lol. would it be okay to make a spell jar for someone else? my very good friend is having a surgery soon, and I was thinking of making a few jars for healing, anxiety relief, support, self love, etc to give to them. is there a certain way to go about this? thanks in advance!!
Yep! Consider asking them in advance if they'd be open to you doing that. A charm bag is another option, especially if it's going under their pillow or in their pocket.
What do you think about spell jars that are just salt and all other crystals?
Firstly it depends what the jar is for. I don't recommend spell jars for all intentions as they're a slower, longer form of magic. Salt itself is clearing and protective but it won't charge the crystals, actually, some crystals can corrode with salt.
I have mini jars but in different shapes. Is that ok
of course!
I have very vivid dreams about things and they always come true in some way and I've been having this deep feeling about my ex and it's been months since we broke up and we didnt talk for 6 and then we reconnected and it was like we never left and then 2 weeks later we stopped talking completely again but I feel this really strong connection to him and i thought i was over him and i didnt think about it for a very long time but i had a dream that we were in the street at night and we were alot older and we talked and It was like i was literally looking into the future is there any spell or something that i can do to get clarity on this or any advice you may have could i be connected to him for a reason ?
Have a watch of my video on Soul Mates and Twin Flames. He may be a member of your soul group, hence the connection. OR you may have a soul contract together to work on healing something in this lifetime.
Divination can assist in finding the reason.
Good luck with your pregnancy. Just one question why do we need to cover the jar with candle wax?
Technically you don't need to. I like it for a) aesthetic purposes b) additional energy within the colour of the candle and the energy expended in adding it c) sealing purposes so the spell can't be tampered with
@@SuburbanWitchery Thank you
When making a jar for the first time can you start with anything? Or are you supposed to make a certain spell jar the first time??
There are no rules to what you can begin with. Common ones are protection jars though.
When sealing a spell jar with wax, can it be any candle, specific unscented candles, or are they special candles?
Edit: and if I have the wax for stamping, could I use that for extra colors?
You can use any wax you feel called to. I haven't used stamping wax so unsure how sufficiently it holds, might even be better than other candles. I would say to use the unscented ones solely because they're cheaper.
If I put gemstones in my jar, can I cleanse & re-use those 2? Only been in the craft a short time & gonna do my 1st jar spell today. How long should my jar be sealed?
Hello! You'll want to keep the jar sealed until you know the spell/intention has worked OR until you see the wax falling off the jar or contents becoming a bit icky. In that case, recycle any items that you can (gemstones can be cleansed literally and spiritually) and re-used. Bury everything else, as long as it is non-toxic to the environment (be careful of burying salt as it can upset the soil microbiome). Jars can be reused too.
@@SuburbanWitchery Thank you so much☺
Hi! I'm just a beginner, Can I use a white candle to seal my protection jar? Is that the same as sealing using white wax? Lastly how long do I keep the protection Jar?
Yes you can, black is another great option too. Keep it as long as you need it, that's the beauty of jar spells, they keep for a long time. If it feels like it's not working so well after a while, give it a shake or pop it on your altar to charge it up.
@@SuburbanWitchery thanks a lot, will definitely do this. Btw my boyfriend is also interested making a protection jar can we make it at the same time? I mean will it still work if I'm casting a spell on my jar while my bf is also doing the same thing? Or do I need to do this alone?
@@chfrl Working together with a similar purpose, and joining your energy is actually better!
Thank you for this video! I was wondering, for how long do you advice to keep the jar before burying it or reusing it? I'd like to give one to my partner as a present
Once the intention has been completed, and the outcome achieved you can do away with the jar. Whether you recycle or reuse it is up to you :)
Great! So let's say it's supposed to fill the person with motivation, can they keep it throughout their whole academic path? I'm sorry, I'm new to this kind of spell work
@@howlcharming5966 yep, they definitely can!
@@SuburbanWitchery Thanks for the advice!
I love your videos and I would like to try spell jars so this one was very helpful. Question, do you have a video on how someone could make black salt without using a cauldron and/or incence ashes? Or in case that it could be replaced with some other kind of salt, what kind of salt would that be? Thank you in advance xx
I don't have a video on that but I could suggest mixing salt with earth from your home or a loved ones grave (with permission from their spirit).
Can I cleanse the bottle with just a candle I have in my house?
Candles aren't typically used for cleansing in that manner. I recomend smoke cleansing for bottles OR simply cleaning with soap and water and imagining any spiritual residue being removed will do tha trick too.
can i use ordinary taper candles like the ones bought in department stores? or are wishing candles different?
You can use whatever candles you have on hand, even birthday cake candles! Which are great as they come in a variety of colours!
@@SuburbanWitchery this is super useful. thank you so much!!
Where am i able to get gemstones or rose quartz?
Here is a link to get some like what you see in the video

Can u use insence to cleanse the items
yes you can
how do i get rid of an old protection jar ?
Hello! If it's done its job, I recommend burying the contents on your property (unless you used salt, then pop it in the trash). Clean the jar and recycle or reuse :)
What if you cant find a place to bury the bottle afterwards? I live in a city and I cant really go to a public park and start digging a small hole. Theres homeless people and also depending on the city they try to keep the grass nice so I dont really have a place to bury these.
Pop it in the trash, no worries at all :)
@@SuburbanWitchery oh awesome thank you 😊 one other question, do you ever cleanse your things with salt? I read that you can do that but I don't know how
@@livgeneral6487 Yes sometimes, but not often. It can corrode some crystals and other things.
I was wondering what if you want to keep them when you bring something in?
That's ok - you can keep them as long as you feel called to.
How do I decide what ingredients to use? I want to make my own spell jars and create my own spells but I have no idea what ingredients to put into it
It will depend on the intention. There are a few hints in this video as to using herbs and plants that correspond based on colour, shape and usage. Same goes with crystals. Google is your friend and slowly, over time, you'll figure out what works and doesn't work for you.
Hobby lobby has them as well! $2.50 for a pack of 8!
thanks for sharing!
do i need to make a circle before making spell jars?
If that is how you usually practice, then yes. I personally do not cast a circle unless I feel it absolutely necessary, which is rare.
If you want to make a Jar.
And you putting things that make you happy for a happy jar.
Works that too?
I don't speak English😅
Yes generally. Lot's of Yellow and Orange for a happy jar. Orange peel for joy, lemon peel for happiness. Maybe some citrine, yellow jade and clear quartz too.
Do you have to do something if you want to empty out your spell jar or no?
Wait till the spell is complete, and then dispose of it with a thank you. Recycle what you can.
@@SuburbanWitchery how can you tell if the if the spell is complete
@@lunavalencia35 it's complete when it works. If you do a money spell, and don't get any money, it hasn't worked. Once you get a sum of money, it's done its job.
If I make a jar spell and gift it to someone will it work on them?
Yep - if it is a gift, give it freely and let them know how they can dispose of it if they wish to (and how to do that). But I don't recommend making spell jars 'about' people without their permission.
i cleanse all of my ingredients as soon as i get them from the store do i still need to cleanse before spells??
It depends. If they've been sitting around, gathering dust and potential energy from you and others in your space then yes. If not - then no need.
does it work to seal a spell jar with art resin?
Yep - you technically don't even have to seal it if you don't want to!
@@SuburbanWitchery OH that's awesome! Thank you!
For spell jars, does it still work in a different order?
Yep! You don't have to copy me exactly.
After having your spell jar for a month does it have to be cleaned?
Doesn't have to be. I leave mine on my altar or in a particular place and shake them when I want to reinvigorate them.
So do we have to cast a circle doing it
If that is something that you ordinarily do when performing rituals, workings and spells then yes.
Personally, I don't cast circles and they don't form a part of my practice so I don't, but Witchcraft is so personal to the practitioner, you need to go with what works for you.
So I did this and I burnt my self is that some sort of sign? 😅
oh be careful hun! probably just being clumsy, I wouldn't read too much into it
