Horseshoes as Talismans, Protection and Magical Charms

- Опубліковано 11 сер 2023
- The Lucky Horseshoe is something that everyone has seen at some point and somewhere. It has got to be our most prolific Pagan Amulet. In fact we hardly notice it these days. So what are the Origins of the Lucky Horseshoe? What customs and traditions are associated with them? And how and why is Magic connected to Horses, Horse Brasses, and Horseshoes?

Those silver dollars are worth quite a bit! (And will be worth a small fortune in the near future) Such a lovely gift❤
Yes, they're a very generous gift! And very special ❤
"Job done." :) Good work, and thank you for sharing this with us. I'm happy to see you again.
Thank you! Sorry, didn't realise it had been two months! Doesn't time fly when it's been raining...?! Yes, I am bodge a job, but if I bodge it, I bodge it well! I may have to redecorate soon.. when I'll put it up with proper iron nails maybe...
@@TheWitchInTheWoods I don't see any bodge job there.
Beautiful fantastic i love this vidio
Thank you x
My Mom always had a horseshoe over our garage growing up. ----- It was nice to see this video. I have missed your videos. Hope you had a wonderful Lughnasadh :) OMG!! That was such a happy blessing with the rainbow !! Wonderful!
Thanks. It's the luck filling up !
❤️❤️❤️
I love your videos. Everytime it's like delving into the mystery and magic. I also love your way: so simple, complex and enchanted at one time. Waiting for your next video.
Thank you. That's very kind of you :). Glad you enjoy them
You put a great deal of work and effort into these vids, they're great- thanks
Youre house is beautiful
Thank you!
Great video , thank you I also liked the beginning with the corn fields and wild life etc as I live in the city , actually I returned yesterday from a visit to Weylands Smithy and the Uffington White Horse I did leave a coin for Weyland the saxon Smith for luck , and then seeing your video reminds me of the synchronicity in the world , blessed be .
aw wonderful! Yes I never mentioned Wayland.. but the tradition is to leave him money isn't it. Love that place.. Love the White Horse. Very sacred land, and yes.. I like the synchronicity of that too! Thanks for sharing your story
Thank you. Very beautiful.❤🐞🌲🪴🍂🍁🍀
Thank you so much
This was a really interesting video, thanks for showing this spell. I have many horseshoes around my house, and one over the front door. I remember we had horse brasses by the side of the fireplace when I was a child, but I don’t know where they went after my mum died - I really wish I had kept them now. The more I think about my mum’s sayings and superstitions, I feel she (or maybe her mother) followed the old ways. I look forward to your next video! 😊
That's sweet. Maybe she was just one of those natural witches.. I call them weather witches... just women in tune with the natural, even supernatural world. Then again it could be ancestry, heredity.. I like that thought too.. means it can be generations back but you may still have inherited something. Aye my grandma and Grandad had lots of horse brasses.. maybe that's where I picked up the liking for them. I started really when I had a Van called Horse.. my home made camper.. it needed some brasses to protect it.. so after that I carried on collecting them. They are so cheap, and whenever I see some I have a rummage.
@@TheWitchInTheWoods yes, she definitely had strange intuition … she said she very often would smell soot in the house when someone had died - this happened when my grandad (on my dad’s side) passed away. He wasn’t living near us at the time - and shortly after she smelled the soot, she received a phone call to say he’d died. Have you ever heard of this type of thing before?
@@willowgrove631 Smelling soot? wow, not that particular quirk, no. But yes similar kind of things that are psychic and intuitive, like sensing when someone had just died. The scots called people seers if they had that kind of ability. Women were often strong seers.

Wonderful video! Now I need to do something with the horseshoe I found in the garden! 🧲🧙🏼♀️💕
Oh you found a Horseshoe!! Lucky you!
Thank you for this video 🌼 looking forward to seeing you again bb
Thank you. Plan to be back soon with luck
In Rutland the horseshoe is hung points downward.
Really? How interesting!! Do you know the folklore for that area, why it's hung down?? Be interesting to know if it's for the same reason?? thanks x
❤

@TheWitchInTheWoods You're welcome. Blessings to you too
I have just found your channel and I love it
Keep it going 😊
Thank you. So glad you like the channel. and thanks for all your kind comments. I have been really sick for about a month, its a good excuse, but you are right, I'm not making much content at the moment . But it's comments like yours that motivate me. Thanks x
Thank you for the wonderful video and the protective spell... Let it Be
Thank you for the wonderful coins!
You are most welcome! I've loved your channel since I first saw it, must be three years ago at least. Thank you for teaching and inspiring the way you do in these lovely videos. They are beautiful and so are you! @@TheWitchInTheWoods
no worries on butchering my frog name, lol
haha.. Oh I'm sorry did I truly butcher it?? and after all your kindness too. So terribly sorry for any misprununsiation...@@davidchojnacki2996
don't be sorry one bit, you are brave for trying! @@TheWitchInTheWoods perhaps I'll tell you my other name some day
I recently found a broken horseshoe and I was wondering if it could still be used as protection even tho it's broken or if it may be, on the contrary, unlucky ?
hmmm... maybe not the best symbolism.. but if you found it.. you could throw it over your shoulder for luck. Somewhere safe, of course!
I only discovered your channel today and am so glad I did. I have had a horsehoe ON my front door rather than over it for years. Is it likely to have the same effect as you aren't going under it to enter the cottage? Blessings from Wales
Oh I would think it can still sprinkle luck over your toes..I'm sure of it! Blessings :)
Hi, Interesting one again, what do you do with the ingredients in the bag, just save them? i guess if you can get the original nails from the or a horseshoe it would be better for the spell or am I being pedantic 😁, my Gran all ways had one above her back door with 3 original nails I remember her telling me, but she wasn't into the old ways as far as I know, probably superstition passed down to her from her family😁 and why 3 do you know
just only 1 original nail.... and only one. She's done wrong!!!!
I had some sent when I bought my horseshoe, and they were proper blacksmith's nails for shoeing horses.. but I only got sent two. I think those are the iron nails you are lucky to use.. but nothing is set in stone is it.. and it's more the intention you do something with. Yeah, a lot of people wouldn't consider it a pagan protection charm.. but old country folk often do it as it's just been tradition for them
One original horse nail? Hmm.. not heard this before?@@Gosidnhan
Oh yeah.. the bag is just a keepsake.. a lucky charm to symbolically help with finances or plenty and prosperity. Mine is currently on the Hearth.. a magical spot in the home.. but it might not stay there as it'll get quite sooty
@@TheWitchInTheWoods I have 42 horseshoes with original nails in them trying to get the strongest spells for them. You did what you wanted; I do what I've learned from the States.... I meant no harm ok...but the right way is just only one nail to kill the devil by St. Dunstan!!!
