Charms & Symbols

Most of us use Charms & Symbols without realizing their power. We “knock on wood” for luck, exchange wedding rings, and wear the colors of our favorite team while watching a game. These actions originate from a time when everyone believed that the energy of the universe could be channeled into objects and symbols.

This is known as “sympathetic magic” the idea that carrying a reminder of something imbues the owner with the power of the original.

Bringing Charms into your Life

Charms are still effective tools today when used with awareness and clear intent. For example, a horseshoe hung with the points facing upward brings you luck as it symbolizes a new moon; wearing the same clothes as a celebrity allows you to feel as successful as them.
