The long-awaited Mercury in Nutmeg charms are available once again! I have deeply enjoyed experimenting with this rich-in-folklore talisman over the last few years, itself embodying a synthesis of herb and metal that always fascinates and delivers secrets of each. As was discussed in [previous] [posts], the technique of drilling a hole in a whole nutmeg, adding mercury, and sealing it with wax was once a favourite of gamblers and those looking for a fast change in luck and circumstance. Having fallen out of fashion due to the dangers inherent to mercury as a material, I set about finding ways to make this magic safely available again, through the use of more intricate wax seals and better containment within the layers of flannel, with this edition developing on the lessons learned and techniques honed through five prior batches.

As such, these talismans for all manner of luck-enhancement can be petitioned with your desires in mind in order to bring about expedient and radical changes in fortune, luck, finances, and all manner of ever-winding fates. The buzz of the talisman helps the bearer remain awake and focused, with an inspired drive toward grabbing life by the reins. This year’s form of the talisman is much closer its folkloric counterparts in more ways than its past counterparts: a green flannel mojo hand containing the nutmeg itself alongside various luck and money drawing herbs and dressed in oils for the same, with the ever-flowing mercury contained such that its physical movement is much more tangible than previous versions.
This particular edition, through the gracious guidance and help of Sfinga, also contains a Balkan folk magical “boost” for psychic strength and discernment of the ever-shifting lines of fate and fortuna, following omens interpreted, offerings made, prayers given, charms uttered, and magic woven on Vidovdan this year. While specifics must remain veiled, St. Vitas, being the foremost patron saint of Sight, was called upon to bless the mercury as mirror, harkening to its use in telescopes in order to grant the bearer the ability and faculties to gaze into the most distant horizons and beyond.
This edition is limited to 21 charms (many already spoken for), so be sure to get one fast!
All charms are sold as of the 11th of July. Thank you so much for your patronage!
