A Spell For Protection While Coming Out As Trans

HOPE THIS HELPS YOU! YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!! <3

This spell is for protecting you when coming out as trans or discussing your gender with people you fear will be less than accepting of you.
Materials:
  • small bottle or jar
  • salt, for protection
  • sugar, to sweeten the relationship
  • herb(s) representing the person(s) you want to come out to
  • herb(s) representing yourself and how you want to be seen
  • optional - loose glitter in a reassuring color
Method:
Select and cleanse your bottle. I recommend using one small enough to fit in your pocket, so that it can be near at hand. 
Mix together the salt, sugar, and glitter and pour it into the bottle, filling it about half-way. 
Add herbs that you associate with the person(s) you will be talking to; I would use rosemary, since there is a huge rosemary bush outside my parents’ house, and I associate the smell with my childhood there. 
Add herb(s) you associate with yourself; I would chose mint and star jasmine. If possible, herbs that come from a place you associate with comfort and protection are preferred. 
Seal your bottle however you see fit; if you would like to add a message, sigil or incantation, now is the time. I would chose to wrap my bottle up with a bandana my partner had been wearing the day before.
When the time comes for the conversation, bring the bottle with you in your pocket. If you feel unsure or scared or just need a bit of reassurance, slip your hand into your pocket and hold the bottle tightly.
Good luck, and be safe.
