The witch ball originated among cultures where harmful magic and those who practiced it were feared. They are one of many folk magic practices involving objects for protecting the household.

The word witch ball may be a corruption of watch ball because it was used to ward off, guard against, evil spirits. They may be hung in an eastern window, placed on top of a vase or suspended by a cord (as from the mantelpiece or rafters). They may also be placed on sticks in windows or hung in rooms where inhabitants wanted to ward off evil.

Wildcrafted Thistle from the pacific northwest.

Fixed, Dressed, and Consecrated on my altar.
