Ritual Wood Red Mushroom Pen

DescriptionDuring my apprenticeship I was taught to always write spells, petitions, name-papers, prayers, and wishes with a pen. Or a pencil that had NO ERASER on it! If a pen was not permanent or if a pencil had an eraser “you might go back on your wish or spell.”Many depictions in folklore show Baba Yaga with Fly Agaric mushrooms. Both are found in the forest so it makes sense that they would become entwined. The fly agaric (Amanita muscaria) is a psychoactive mushroom that can cause hallucinations, euphoria, and death. Baba Yaga is immortal and embodies the dual nature of life and death. Like a hunter of mushrooms in the woods, you can search out Baba Yaga. If you encounter her, she might eat you, put you to work, or give you advice. If she gives you advice. The outcome will be better than you could imagine. If she puts you to work… The work will be hard but you will do better than you ever dreamed possible. If she eats you.. Well, better luck in the next life!These natural wood pens were hand carved and painted in Ukraine. The Witchy (aka me) then ritually whispered spells and prayers on them and smoked them all on my altar to aid you in all of your spellwork.
