Teddy Bear Magick

A few weeks ago I considered creating a post on Teddy Bear Magick but it wasn’t until last week, when I had a particularly hard week to get through, that I managed to get all the elements together for you.

Teddy Bear Magick is perfect to help children through traumatic experiences, and even adults.  It is something that takes time to create, giving you the opportunity to powerfully imbue the toy / talisman that you are creating and it is something made with such personal care and love, that it can carry an immense amount of power.

The act of creating a plush toy or teddy bear from scratch, and creating it uniquely for a magical purpose in its own is incredibly therapeutic. So if, like me, you love to sew or create things with your hands, creating a plush toy by hand is definitely worth a try.

The most common reasons for this type of magic is to create a talisman for one of the following reasons:

1. Protection and safety
2. Healing from trauma
3. Restful dreams and sleeping
4. To bring calm to a negative situation

The process is really easy, you make the toy, with your intent in mind, constantly imbuing it with the energy you desire. Once it is complete you bless it within your sacred space. Then you place it somewhere, where it can continue to do its work. Usually in a safe corner or beside the bed.

Pagan Find for the week

Plush Toy 

 

I have decided to feature this sewing pattern as it includes all the requirements necessary to allow you to be able to personalise it when creating a plush toy for any magical undertaking.

• I suggest embroidery as a finishing technique, as  this allows the creator to add elements and symbols to the plush. For this particular toy I embroidered pentacles on the palms of the plush toy. Another option would be to use fabric paints.

 

• The arms and legs are stitched on separately. This gives the creator the opportunity to include elements such as dried herbs or gemstones into the plush. For this particular toy I included Rose quartz for self love, amethyst for protection and the feeling of safety and red jasper to clear away any negative energies.

 

• The plush toy has an opening at it’s based, which allows the user to include anything inside the main body of the toy, such as sachet’s of dried herbs, or any blessed items that can be added at a later stage.

• The patch on the tummy gives the user the opportunity to put a few drops of essential oils on the plush toy when it is blessed, and continually while it is being used.
