Okay, check this out. Is that the coolest crockery bottle you’ve ever seen?
It’s a Witch Bottle!
Do you remember my Witches’ Bottles for Protection & Prosperity? I also did a list of 13 items to include in your witches’ bottles and now… well; yesterday- I came across an interesting article in The New Scientist, by Linda Geddes about this 17th century witches’ bottle that was found in Greenwich, London, in 2004.
According to the article the ceramic vessel was found buried about 5 feet deep by some archaeologists. The bottle was sealed and it sloshed and rattled when they shook it, and an X-ray taken later showed pins and nails stuck in the neck, which suggested that it had been buried upside down.
It seems that, “many have been dug up and their contents washed away down the sink,” but “This is the first one that has been opened scientifically”, says Alan Massey, a retired chemist.

I’ve been living the Magickal Life, or living a magickal lifestyle, (as I prefer to call it) for over 30 years now, so my purpose here is to simply share some bits of that with you all, not get into who did it first or best. Hell, I’ve probably forgotten more than I actually know, and I’d be hard pressed to tell you how I came by much of it; I am indeed an eclectic witch.
