Since I’m tipsy and in a sharing mood, here is one of the very first spells I ever did. It was years ago, and I had a red truck that needed fixing. I didn’t have the funds to repair it.
I painted an old matchbox car red, came up with a sigil (the exact meaning of which I do not remember, as it should be) and painted it on a box I had lying around. I added a Thank You card (for a job already done) and a feather for effortless transportation.
I turned out all the lights, lit a few candles, burned some incense (nothing specific, whatever I had at the time, which wasn’t much — probably some stick incense from the grocery store) and worked myself into a frenzy while visualizing the job already done.
Then I came like buckets and wiped it all over the place (yeah, gross, whatever, that sigil got fucking CHARGED that night.)
Truck was fixed by the end of the week.
Don’t ask me why I kept this. Just seemed like the thing to do.
Forgot to add: the bandaid across the car’s hood is for getting that shit fixed. Literal, yes. Effective, definitely.
