    Ep 138: Knitting & Magic During a Hurricane

    In this special episode of Knit A Spell, I’m sharing my personal experience with Hurricane Milton and how I used a protection sigil, magic, and knitting to keep myself, my family, and our home safe.   As the eye of the storm passed directly over Sarasota, Florida, I combined practical action with magical intention to create a spell jar for protection. Using water from Hurricane Helene, Good Luck Oil from Madame Pamita, and a sigil I designed, I crafted a powerful protection spell—and then turned to knitting to keep myself grounded through the chaos.   In this episode, I’ll walk you through:  • How I created and activated my protection sigil   • The magical elements I used, including hurricane water and ice cubes • My knitting project during the storm: a center-out shawl that became a tarot spread cloth   • Reflections on how magic and knitting work together to bring calm in stressful times    I also share some critical tips for staying grounded during a natural disaster—like finding trustworthy news sources—and give a huge shoutout to the amazing line workers who helped restore power so quickly!  Check out the after show for Patreon subscribers where I share 5 ways you can empower yourself as a knitter during times of stress!   Subscribe to Knit A Spell to hear more about the intersection of magic and knitting: https://youtube.com/knitaspell   And don’t forget to check out our Patreon for exclusive content, including today’s after-show where I share five simple ways to combine knitting with empowerment during stressful times! 🌟   👉 Patreon: www.patreon.com/knitaspell  ---  👉 Subscribe, and leave a comment on this episode.
