Spiritually cleanse the milagro periodically, re-charging and re-consecrating it as needed.


Milagro Good Health Maintenance Spell
Because milagros strengthen corresponding parts, they may also be used to maintain a state of good health. Collect assorted milagros, corresponding to parts for which you may have concern. Pin them to a fabric-covered board. Maintain quartz crystals nearby to further empower the milagros, just in case the Direct Application Spell above should ever become necessary.

Russian Witches'
Midsummer's Eve
Harvest Spell (1)


The healing property of herbs is believed greatly empowered if they are gathered on Midsummer's Eve or on the following morning. The belief that harvesting botanicals on Midsummer's Eve increases their magical properties is common to many traditions. The sun is at the height of its power, near the summer solstice, and the plants radiate this increased potency

Russian witchcraft suggests that following these directions will further empower herbs harvested on Saint John's Eve (midsummers eve). As you venture out to harvest, stop at the threshold of your front door and bow six times toward the sun. Bow an additional six times towards the sun when you've reached the plants, just before you gather them.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Send the Disease Out to Sea Spell

Every magical tradition on Earth has its personal quirks and predilections that distinguish it from others. Russian magic is characterized by incredibly poetic, evocative word-charm formulas. They are formulaic because the beginning of the chant is standardized, someting like the "Once upon a time" or "Once there was and once there wasn't" traditional beginnings for fairy tales. When you hear those openings, you know you've entered the realm of fairy tales. Similarly, these standarized word charms signal that you've entered the realm of enchantment. Inevitably the formula allows you an opening at the end to personalize the spell.

Chant Aloud:

On Earth there is an ocean
In the ocean there is a sea
In the sea there is water
In the water there is an island
On the island is land
On the land is a forest
In the forest there are woods
In the woods there are trees
In the trees there is one tree
On the tree is a bough
On that bough is a branch
On that branch is a creature
That creature is a [name it]
Illness! Go into that ________ [name the creature].

(If you want to diminish it even further, give the creature a parasite.)

There are rules in the guild to not post spells of any nature anywhere within the guild. That is normaly reservered for PMs only.

HOWEVER...

These spells are healing and are 'Light' or 'Good' in nature so I personaly don't see any harm. Its up to the mods to make that call. Just thought I would warn ya.

@Aylia (if you happen to drop by): I personaly don't see any harm in this kind of 'spells' being listed here. I have been ill for over a month now and these might be able to help me since Im not much of a healer anyway. I think what Naomi Tinuveil is doing is a good thing and shows she cares about the people in this guild. I say let her keep going!
