Emporiblog - Acorn Magic

Hello all!! Today's post is about Acorn Magic!


I've only recently come across this magic, if you know of any more lesser known magicks that interest you, let us know! 


An Acorn is the seed/nut from an Oak tree and other members of the Oak family. An Oak tree will only produce Acorns after it reaches the age of 40 or there abouts. September to October is the best time to collect Acorns, you can even use an Acorn to tell the health and condition of the tree and how it's faired in previous seasons. Oak trees have several myths and associations from numerous cultures and religions including:

- The Celts/Druids 
- Romans
- Norse Mythology 
- Greeks
- Teutonic Tribes

So it's no surprise that Acorns have their own branch of magic. 


What are Acorns associated with?

Acorns are associated with the following:

- New Life
- Fertility
- Abundance
- Strength
- Prosperity
- Protection
- Fire
- Water
- The Sun
- Nature

They would also make a nice addition to an Autumn/Mabon/Lammas altar. 


What are Acorns used for?

Acorns have a number of properties and specific ways to use those properties, for example, carrying an Acorn will keep loneliness at bay and help banish illness, they can also bring health and longevity. Wearing an Acorn amulet around your neck will bring protection. Placing an Acorn on your window ledge is said to attract prosperity and luck and having one in your car is said to stop you getting lost. 

Acorns pair nicely with carnelian, Jasper and rose quartz. The also give a nice boost to healing, prosperity and protection Spells. 


Bonus

If you're single and have a crush/potential suiter but aren't sure if you should act apon it, you can use Acorns for guidance. Here's how:

- Get 2 Acorns

- Write your name on one and your crushes/potential suiters name on the other

- Place in water e.g decent size bowl, tub or sink

If the Acorns move closer together, it means that you're a good match. If they drift apart, it indicates that a union would be unsuccessful.


I hope you've enjoyed this post, if I come across more magicks like this, I'll share them with you!

Blessings,

Ancestral Work (part 1 )

 Ancestral Communication and Work. Hi Guys, It's me again, as this is work that I have been actively doing, and Cat and I agreed that I would do this post for you. It seems to fit in well with the season. We have discussed this subject briefly in some other posts, such as Vivianite  (just use the search function and input ancestors or spirit work, and you will find the posts to read whichever ones shout at you, as there are too many mentions to put them in here). We discussed communication with spirits in a previous post but this is a lot more specific as it deals with our own flesh and blood. I do have a qualification in Ancestral Healing, so this is a precursor to any more in-depth posts that we may do in the future if you want them. The pic above is one I took recently when I felt the call to tend to the graves of my nan, and her mum, whose headstone is pictured above. As with a lot of practices, you can be as elaborate or as basic as you need.       ...
