List of 5 Magickal Ways to use Nutmeg in Magick 🌰✨
🍀1. Influence Lady Luck – Nutmeg is often associated with good luck or fortune, so always be sure to carry a small nutmeg seed in your pocket before taking part in any gambling or games of chance in order to better nudge the odds in your favour.
⚖️ 2. Justice – Add a little nutmeg to spells that promote or seek out justice. Traditionally, this means using it in spells or spell bags meant to sway a jury or decision in court. However, nutmeg can also be used in a far less formal setting such as in spells that seek to reveal a truth or to stop the
🛤3. Safe Travels and Inspired Adventures! – Place a whole nutmeg seed into a spell pouch or your travel bags (you could use ground nutmeg here but it would be incredibly messy!) Nutmeg encourages lively adventures and spiritual rejuvenation during vacations and retreats while also serving as a powerful deterrent towards other’s ill intentions and any misfortunes.
❤️ 4. Hearts Stay True – Nutmeg is very often associated with love and fidelity and can be used in simple yet powerful spells to help ensure your lover’s fidelity and to ward off any temptations.
🌟 5. Soothing Spice – Nutmeg is a perfect spice to enjoy and use around the holidays. This is because using nutmeg in your spells and/or consuming it in recipes such as my super tasty White Chocolate Pumpkin Spice Latte (recipe at the end!) can help to ease or lessen any growing tensions and conflicts that can arise during these cold winter months due to the lack of warmth and sunlight. (Have you ever noticed how everyone seems to be way more cranky in the winter yet they somehow instantly perk up in the spring? Well, that’s the sun’s magickal warmth and energy for you! But don’t worry! Magickal Nutmeg is here to save the day! Hooray!)

An American Witch’s Herbal: Burning Bush
Tumblr media
Euonymus alatus
Common Names:     Burning Bush, Winged Spindle, Gui Jian Yu
Type:     Deciduous Shrub
Element:     Fire
Botanical Family:     Celastraceae
Region of Origin:     Northern and Central China, Korea, Japan
Euonymus from either Latin euonymus (a kind of tree growing in Lesbos) or Greek euonumos (of good name), and so may be associated with Euonyme, mother of the Furies in Greek myth. (Other versions may have the Furies as the daughters of Hades and Persephone, or as having sprung from the blood of Uranus when Cronus castrated him.) The specific name alatus (winged) from Latin.
Growth and Care
Burning bush has been a very popular landscaping shrub in the Eastern half of the US for a number of reasons. It’s considered cold hardy from zones 4-8 and makes an attractive hedge that helps prevent roadside erosion, but has been known to become invasive, spreading both by seed and pushing up suckers from their root systems. They require no special care, and thrive easily in full or partial sun, growing to a height of 9 feet if left unpruned, though some cultivars are slow growers. They put out a small flower and berry in late spring and early summer, but the real draw of this shrub is the bright red tones its foliage takes on in the autumn. 
It should also be noted that burning bush is toxic (berries and other parts of the plant as well) and so are best avoided wherever there are livestock, pets or children left unsupervised. Its sale has been prohibited in a few states.
Tumblr media
General Use
In traditional Chinese medicine, it has been used promote menstruation, reduce swelling, and kill insects and parasites. As all parts of this shrub are toxic to humans when ingested, I do not recommend internal use or use of the wood to make implements that will come in contact with food.
In the same genus as the European spindle tree, it also has a creamy, smoothly grained wood that is good for carving small objects like skewers and knitting needles. As a point of fact, my first wand came from a broken burning bush stem wrapped in copper wire: my freshman year of college, taking some major strides into my personal practice, I was dashing to class on a snowy February day. The area along the sidewalk of my dorm building was landscaped with burning bush--they’d been a vibrant, electric red in October but now stood bare, and even though I was in a hurry as I was running late, a sudden sound and movement caught my eye. Down at the base of the row sat the first robin I’d seen for the year, chirping at me as it stood on a slim, broken stem and flew off as soon as it seemed to have realized I was looking at it. Acting on reflex, I picked up the broken stick, tearing the last shred of bark holding it to its shrub, stuffed it in my pack and took it with me. It wasn’t until later in the day that I realized it was February 2nd--Imbolc, Candlemas, or however you prefer to call it. It is the halfway point between the winter solstice and the spring equinox.
The smooth grain is good for producing tools used in fiber arts so that threads and fibers don’t snag on rough spots or splinters--items like spinning spindles, bobbins, looms and knitting needles, hence the spindle tree's name. The twigs also make an excellent charcoal for drawing.
Tumblr media
Symbolic and Magical Uses
Although not technically the same as the European spindle (Euonymus europaeus) which features in some versions of the Celtic ogham system, they are sibling plants, and it maintains many of the same qualities that made it culturally significant, and so can be substituted for spindle in spells and formulae that call for it.
This shrub may also be used in dedication to those spirits that focus on fiber arts (off the top of my head, the Moirai, Athena, Frigg, Neith and Mokosh--there are many other with whom I am unfamiliar, depending on your personal path and practice). The creation of cloth was an incredibly important and widespread aspect of human civilization, so no matter what your path, there are likely to be myths and stories that involve this sort of work.
In my research, I also found a small consensus of symbolism in this plant that calls on us to fulfill our obligations. If you squint a bit, I think that this can related back to Euonymus and her daughters. The Furies or Erinyes were minor goddesses who punished wrongdoing, especially for offenses committed against family members. One of their euphemistic names was also the Eumenides, which can be roughly translated to "The Well-Meaning Ones," or "The Kindly Ones," an epithet which readers of Neil Gaiman's Sandman series may be familiar with. If these are entities one works with, then I think you could easily see your way to using this plant in rituals designed to invoke the Furies, or at least to connect with their mother to intervene with them on one's own behalf. I would, however, make sure that you yourself are blameless and in appropriate behavior in whatever altercation you seek to have them punish--I certainly would not want to invoke the Furies for petty matters or draw attention to myself if I held responsibility for some wrongdoing.
