An essential tool for any practitioner of rune magic is a rune bag. A rune bag is a sacred container that holds a set of rune stones, usually made of wood, bone, or crystal. It is used for storing and carrying the rune stones, as well as for protecting and energizing them. There are various methods of acquiring a rune bag. Some practitioners prefer to make their own bags, as it allows them to infuse their personal energy into the creation process. Making a rune bag involves selecting a suitable fabric or material, sewing or stitching it into a small pouch, and decorating it with symbols or runes that have personal meaning to the practitioner.
Review: My Magic Mud Whitening Tooth PowderIf you have been on social media lately, you would will have seen someone using this black toothpaste, it is everywhere! Every time it pops up in my feed, I think about trying it out. You know I love a natural cleaning product and as with all things, vegan and cruelty free is important. But then my natural scepticism crops up. Can a toothpaste or tooth powder made from activated charcoal and bentonite clay be any good? And does it live up to the whitening claims? Then as luck would have it, Unique Health Products sent me a sample of My Magic Mud Whitening Tooth Powder to try. I was so excited to give it a try and report back to you!
Tooth powder might seem weird to our 21 st century eyes but tooth powder goes back to the ancient Egyptians. Tooth powders were often made at home but commercial varieties came on to the market in the 19 th century. An 1866 Home Encyclopedia recommended pulverized charcoal. The first commercial toothpastes came not long after, the first hit shelves in 1908. My Mum remembers seeing some brands of tooth powder on supermarket shelves as late as 1970’s and maybe even 1980’s. For years she stored her sewing pins in a little plastic container marked ‘smokers tooth powder’. So as you can see this kind of tooth powder has a long history and it’s something your distant relatives would find familiar. And for this vintage loving gal, there is something encouraging about that!
Making a rune bag involves selecting a suitable fabric or material, sewing or stitching it into a small pouch, and decorating it with symbols or runes that have personal meaning to the practitioner. This process ensures that the bag is attuned to the practitioner's energy and intentions. For those who prefer to purchase a rune bag, there are numerous options available online and in metaphysical stores.
What is it?
I’m going to give the info straight from the horse’s mouth! Here’s the info I found on the My Magic Mud website. My Magic Mud Activated Charcoal Tooth Powder for Whitening is a 100% natural oral care remedy that cleans, polishes, whitens, and detoxes your teeth. It features food-grade activated charcoal and bentonite clay. Why use activate charcoal to brush? Because it really works, and the benefits of activated charcoal have been well known for ages. Activated charcoal removes plaque, toxins that cause bad breath, and teeth stains through a process called adsorption where these unwanted elements adhere to the porous surface of the charcoal. The result is a dentist-like clean, and a brighter and whiter smile! I am showing a teeny, tiny sample pot that I received to try out. The real thing comes in a much bigger container that claims to amount to 150 uses and comes with a little scoop, so can apply it directly to your mouth or toothbrush.
It is important to choose a bag that resonates with you and feels energetically aligned. Consider the fabric, size, design, and overall aesthetics of the bag. Some individuals may also prefer to select a bag that reflects their personal spiritual or cultural heritage. When acquiring a rune bag, it is also important to consider the material and construction of the bag. Rune bags made of natural materials such as cotton, linen, or leather are often preferred, as they allow for breathability and natural energy flow. Additionally, a sturdy construction ensures that the bag will last for years to come and provide proper protection for the rune stones. Furthermore, some practitioners may choose to cleanse and consecrate their rune bag before using it. This can be done by smudging the bag with sacred herbs, such as sage or palo santo, or by placing it under a full moon or in sunlight to absorb cleansing energy. Consecrating the bag involves setting intentions and invoking the energy of the runes or deities associated with the practitioner's practice. This process helps to align the bag with the practitioner's purpose and prepares it for its magical work. In conclusion, acquiring a rune bag is an important step in practicing rune magic. Whether one chooses to make their own bag or purchase one, it is essential to select a bag that resonates with their energy and intentions. Taking the time to cleanse and consecrate the bag will further enhance its energetic properties and ensure its effectiveness in rune magic practice..
Reviews for "Protecting Your Rune Bag: Tips for Longevity"
1. Michael - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with the "Acquiring Rune Bag" product. The bag itself was very poor quality and started falling apart after only a few uses. The runes that came with it were also subpar and had poorly engraved symbols. Overall, it felt like a cheaply made product that was not worth the money I paid for it. I would not recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and well-made rune bag.
2. Sarah - 1/5 stars - This rune bag was a complete waste of money. The material used was flimsy and easily torn. I didn't even get to use it properly because the drawstring broke the first time I tried to close it. The runes that came with it were also very disappointing. They were unevenly shaped and the symbols were barely visible, making them useless for any meaningful rune reading. I regret purchasing this product and would not recommend it to anyone.
3. David - 2/5 stars - The "Acquiring Rune Bag" did not live up to my expectations. The bag itself was smaller than I anticipated, making it difficult to fit all the runes comfortably. The fabric also felt cheap and easily wrinkled. In addition, the drawstring constantly got tangled, making it frustrating to use. Overall, I found this product to be poorly designed and not worth the price. I would suggest looking for a different rune bag option.
