Where can I get good luck?

A mandatory rule when choosing a talisman is to follow your heart. A trinket, acquired in time under the influence of an inner impulse, can serve more reliably than an amulet created without an appropriate mood.Of course, it is better for the talisman to be made by hand, but it is permissible for a relative, a friend or a loved one to participate in the creation.

Under no circumstances use gifts from people who are unkind or unpleasant to you as a talisman.

How to do it yourself?

First, select the amulet you want to create. Decide which talisman suits you best.

A talisman is essentially a "power item" attached to a particular owner. To enhance the protection, you can use magic symbols, the name of the owner or the runes on the amulet. Sometimes a drop of blood is left on it to establish a connection with an amulet.

Production rules

An important aspect of creating a lucky charm at home is complete concentration on the current task.

The rules for making talismans are as follows:

it is imperative to set aside a day free from worries in order to create an amulet;
let no one distract and disturb you while you work;
turn off your phone, turn on pleasant relaxing music
prepare the components for the mascot in advance.

All materials to create a talisman for good luck need natural materials.

Talismans that you can make yourself

You can create many talismans with your own hands, some of the most effective are:

amulet made of paper or cardboard;
a bag of good luck
money ball;
magic wax;
wire bracelets;
Arabic mascot;
imperial amulet of good luck.

Charm made of paper or cardboard

It does not take long to create a charm made of paper or cardboard, but a properly made charm will bring good luck. First, decide which shade of paper you want to choose.

The most acceptable paper colors are:

White is the color of new beginnings, purity and restraint. The white talisman is suitable for those who started their journey to the goal, want to succeed in the field of work.
Red symbolizes health and emotions. It is worth choosing a color for those who want to strengthen the relationship, to reveal themselves in a creative way.
Black is often perceived with a negative meaning, but this perception is fundamentally wrong. Black - completion, energy absorption. It must be chosen by people who want to complete old things, to isolate themselves from problems of the past.

Once we have decided on the color of the paper, we continue to create a talisman:

Cover the table with a white, preferably new, tablecloth.
Place a blank piece of paper or cardboard in the center of the tablecloth.
Place four candles around the edges of the tablecloth and light them.
Draw a drawing or letters on paper. It is worth writing on the wish sheet, as if they have already come true: "I bought a house" - or: "Vova confessed her love. " For a drawing it is worth choosing a rune, a picture of the sun or aheart, which helps attract positive energy.
Wait until the candles burn out while looking at the text or image on paper. Try to visualize your dreams.

It is necessary to keep such desires closer to yourself. Put them in your wallet or in your breast pocket.

Good luck bag

A lucky bag becomes a comfortable and easy to make talisman.

to create it you will need the following materials:
red fabric 25 x 15 centimeters;
multicolored threads;
dried herbs.

The materials are ready, we start creating the mascot:

Fold the fabric in half and sew on both sides.
We put the herbs in the resulting bag. Choose mint, lavender, rosemary or cloves.
Tie the cutout with seven threads and leave it on the window for a week.

A lucky bag is made for the growing moon so it will gain more strength. Properly designed, it will bring good luck in the years to come.

Money bold

To create the next amulet, use

a ball of woolen threads;
small coins.

Wool must be new and must not be used for knitting or crafts before.

Let's start creating a talisman:

We take the thread and start winding it into a new ball that weaves coins in.
We pronounce the conspiracy: "A thread of a string - good luck, the ball will roll off - happiness in the house is added. "

After the completion of the manufacture, you need to leave the talisman on a moonlit night on the windowsill so that it will be charged with the energy of the moon and bring happiness and prosperity to the house.

Magic wax

To create an amulet, you only need wax. Choose the light you like, color and shape of the product is not important.

Let's start making:

In the growing lunar phase, turn on a light at midnight.
While the flame is burning, talk about all your desires and dreams. Try to formulate them as clearly as possible.
Once the candle has melted, do not throw wax away, but put it in a canvas bag.

Keep wax away from prone eyes. The talisman will help achieve the fulfillment of all desires.

Bracelet made of threads

To create an amulet, a common thread is often chosen to attract good luck.

Creating a talisman:

We take three strands and begin to braid with a "pigtail" that alternately overlays one on top of the other.
A red bead can be woven into the center of the bracelet to strengthen the amulet.
Tie the resulting braid with a knot on the wrist.

Craftsmen can braid a leather strap with thread so that good luck will have a reliable foundation, intuition and connection with nature will strengthen. The talisman will protect against failure and slander, will attract luck.

Arabic mascot

One of the strongest Arab talismans that brings good luck is the hand of Fatima. The palm-shaped amulet is often found in the form of figures and pendants, but it is possible to depict it yourself.

Algorithm for creating an Arabic talisman for good luck:

Turn on a light.
Take a piece of paper and pull Fatima's hand. It is advisable to paint the amulet with blue paint, which improves its protective properties.
Place an eye in the center of the drawing to sharpen your intuition.
Wait for the light to burn out.

It is wiser to mark the finished talisman near the front door so as not to accidentally enter the house or the desk for good luck in the business.

Imperial amulet for good luck

To make an amulet you need a coin. Do not take the first one that comes across. Maybe an antique shop has an option of their choice.

Creating a talisman:

Drill a hole in the middle of the coin. When making a hole, remember to think about your beloved desires.
We take a thread or lace of red color and thread a coin.
We tie the thread on a double knot and imagine how we tie good luck to the thread.

The amulet will not only affect the financial side of life but also protect you from problems, will attract power to fulfill your dreams.

How do I activate a talisman?

Once you have selected a talisman, clean it of negative energies and activate it. If the material of the amulet is not fragile, cleaning must be performed with running water. Another effective option would be to smoke the talisman. For the ritual, use incense sticks or candles. Can be cleaned by immersing the seal in sand.

To activate the talisman you need:

Relax, close your eyes and mentally imagine how all the dirt and negativity leaves him.
The easiest and most effective way to activate a talisman is to take it in your hands, bring it to your face and exhale rhythmically on it.
During activation, concentrate on the tasks that the talisman must perform and the attraction of positives.
To fully charge the talisman, imagine how some of the energy of exhalation is contained in the amulet, which will protect in the future.
The talisman must speak - to whisper to him about your desires.
