Five knots will I tie for every unfriendly and unfaithful shooter – on the guns, on the bows, on every weapon of war. O knots, shut against the shooter all highways and byways, close up the guns, put all the bows out of order, string together all the weapons of war; in my knots let there be almighty virtue.

—Russian folk magic spell against enemy weapons, quoted in W.F. Ryan, The Bathhouse at Midnight: Magic in Russia (via winawinadajcie)

With today’s news of another innocent black youth shooting, we should all give this spell a shot.

Any material components needed for this one, or is it focus+intent+practice? I mean, I can look up the traditional components of Russian Folk Magick, but I figured I’d ask, before delving.

I wish I knew. Alas I’m not familiar with Russian folk magic to the degree that I could tell. Maybe OP…?

This looks like knot magic. Which would mean having a piece of thread or cord long enough to tie five knots in. You would traditionally start in the middle of the cord, then move to the rightmost , then the leftmost knot, then inbetwee (back and forth) working toward the middle. These usually come in odd numbers (3, 5, 7, 9…etc.) I do not know if Russian magic is different from the usual English stuff, but that’s how it’s done in England.

Sometimes just stand on the earth without shoes and feel the coolness, the softness, the warmth. Whatso­ever the earth is ready to give in that moment, just feel it and let it flow through you. And allow your energy to flow into the earth. Be connected with the earth. If you are connected with the earth, you are connected with life. If you are connected with the earth, you are connected with your body. If you are connected with the earth, you will become very sensi­tive and centered – and that’s what is needed.

Listen to me, your body is not a temple. Temples can be destroyed and desecrated. Your body is a forest — thick canopies of maple trees and sweet scented wildflowers sprouting in the underwood. You will grow back, over and over, no matter how badly you are devastated.
