2019 Lammas Sabbat Box Hearth Witchery Witch Subscription Box Pagan Subscription Box

Hail and Welcome, Sabbat Box Members and Friends!

We have arrived at the point of the year where the longest day is past us, and the slow waning of the day begins to give way to the longer nights. But summer is still very much in full swing and power and growth from the Sun is still in full effect.  As we leave the summer solstice behind, we move toward the next stop on the Wheel of the Year—that halfway point between the solstice and the autumnal equinox known by many on the Path as Lammas or Lughnasadh. This festival historically is about abundance and the first harvest of crops, but in modern times we take this time to look spiritually at the return on the work put in at the beginning of the year and the harvest we hope to gain from it!


    • BOX SYNOPSIS •


    2019 Lammas Sabbat Box Hearth Witchery Lughnasadh Sabbat Box

    All of the items that we curated for you inside this box correspond with -or- may help assist you with the following forms of magick:

    • Hearth magick
    • Protection work
    • Household spellwork
    • Prosperity magick
    • discovering new ways to enchant the home

    While the harvest fields are an important focus in celebration of Lammas and Lughnasadh, there is also where the harvest ends up: the home and hearth. No matter where our lives take us, we all want a place to call home where we can refuel, recharge, and revitalize ourselves when our work or life stresses take from us. While hearth is generally referring to a fireplace or kitchen space, the term itself brings up images of warmth, security, and peace. It’s no coincidence the term hearth is close to heart, because what makes any structure where we reside a home is the heart and soul that we bring to it. It is where we gather with family and friends to share in our successes, lament our failures, and strengthen our connections with our fellow loved ones.

    It is this idea—the hearth or soul of where we live—that we considered when curating items for this year’s Lammas Sabbat Box. We wanted to provide a collection of items and information on how we can better walk our paths when it comes to enchanting our homes and hearth!

    BREAKDOWN

    What makes a place a home? Is it the feeling of safety and security from the outside world or is there more to it? For many magickal practitioners, the home is the epicenter of their spiritual workings and the "home base” of their magickal path, so we wanted to include a more in-depth collection of information and lore surrounding the home and hearth. That’s when we found this great addition for your magickal library! Author Arin Murphy-Hiscock wrote and gathered extensive information for all things witchy in the home with this beautifully written guide on hearth and home witchcraft. Within its pages you’ll find rituals, spells, recipes and applications that you can add to your own practice and help to keep your home magically tuned, safe, and prosperous. Whether you want to know how to build different hearth fires for specific rites and occasions, to making corn dollies and other home arts and crafts, learn about herbal, color, and food ingredient correspondences, or gain a deeper understanding of the cauldron and its connection between magick and cooking, this book is a great addition to any library. At over 250 pages, this small (but packed!) book is a excellent compendium of things witchy for the home and hearth.

     Besom Pentagram Plaque
    • WHO MAKES IT?: 
    Sourced Via Eclectic Artisans
    • WHERE CAN I GET IT?: Available at the Sabbat Box Store
    • WHY WOULD I WANT IT?: A detailed plaque portraying beloved Pagan imagery.  


    BREAKDOWN
    Since this Sabbat Box is all about the home and hearth, we thought to add a lasting addition to your altar or sacred space with this beautiful plaque. The design includes five besoms—common tools in the home to both practically and spiritually “sweep out” bad things. These besoms are arranged in a pentagram or star-shape, which are commonly used to represent the five interconnected elements of water, fire, air, earth, and spirit, but also can represent the complete person and the five aspects of nature and our place in it. This decorative display is an all-in-one way to evoke protection and security, banish negativity or evil, and signify that your home is protected by hearth and home witchcraft! Another use for the pentagram can be the placeholder for deity or higher power if the practitioner does not name or signify a specific god or goddess in their practice. This beautiful plaque is made from cold-cast resin and is hand painted. This plaque will make for a great addition to your home or altar decor. Prop this unique and charming piece up on your altar or hang it on a nearby wall with its built-in hanger. How will you incorporate your besom pentagram into your home?.

    BREAKDOWN

    One thing that makes a hearth or home a welcome place is its scent: a wonderful meal bubbling on the stove, the smoky crackle of a home fire, or even a sweet baked treat cooling on a windowsill. Since our theme is “hearth witchery,” we thought we’d provide a way to create a cozy aroma for your dwelling or to accompany a ritual or working. Home Blessing incense is a handmade blend of pine, cedar and sage that not only evokes an earthy scent, but also provides a natural blend of smoke great for protection and cleansing your homestead.

    TIME: We take pride in assembling each and every Sabbat Box by hand, no matter the amount of time it takes. We don't just throw your items inside a flat rate priority mail box like some other subscription box companies out there. We want your Sabbat Box to be delivered to you as beautifully as it left us, and it takes a tremendous amount of time to complete this task.

    This includes folding the boxes together, individually cutting each sheet of tissue paper by hand, weighing out the crinkle paper for each box, designing the flyers, coupons, stickers and brochures to be printed professionally by commercial printers, individually placing each item within their corresponding bags, individually assembling the boxes, individually packing the tissue paper within each box by hand and also putting together and creating product packing. This timeframe doesn't even include the efforts made to manage the Sabbat Box website, the back end billing system, social media management, customer service inquiries, accounting, marketing, purchasing, networking, and so on. This is a labor of love and we enjoy serving the community!


    We believe in what it is we are doing and we sincerely hope that each and every one of you can see that the purest of intent and utmost care goes into curating each Sabbat Box.

    Boxes ship: 7/19 ~ We have arrived at the point of the year where the longest day is past us, and the slow waning of the day begins to give way to the longer nights. But summer is still very much in full swing and power and growth from the Sun is still in full effect.  As we leave the summer solstice behind, we move toward the next stop on the Wheel of the Year—that halfway point between the solstice and the autumnal equinox known by many on the Path as Lammas or Lughnasadh.  This festival historically is about abundance and the first harvest of crops, but in modern times we take this time to look spiritually at the return on the work put in at the beginning of the year and the harvest we hope to gain from it.

    Lughnasadh 2019 Lammas, or “Loaf-Mass” is a celebration of the reaping of crops and the first summer harvest. While we may not all be farmers or work literal fields, we all have our own work and sowing our intentions and patiently waiting for growth and a return on our efforts regardless of the time of year. So on the first day of August, we take the time to acknowledge our actions and choices and celebrate those that have brought us prosperity or security as well as examine those actions and choices that have not.


    The other name for this sabbat, Lughnasadh (pronounced LOO-NA-SAH), has a more specific purpose, as it is believed that the first festival was held by the god Lugh as a funeral feast for his deceased mother Tailtiu and an athletic competition. This time also became a time of sacrifice as well, as it was important to offer the first crop cuttings to the gods in gratitude for the harvest itself. Here in parts of North America at this time there are literal “first fruits” such as the beginning of the blueberry harvest season
    .


    Lammas 2019While the harvest fields are an important location in celebration of this sabbat, there is also where the harvest ends up: the home and hearth. No matter where our lives take us, we all want a place to call home where we can refuel, recharge, and revitalize ourselves when our work or life stresses take from us. While hearth is generally referring to a fireplace or kitchen space, the term itself brings up images of warmth, security, and peace. It’s no coincidence the term hearth is close to heart, because what makes any structure where we reside a home is the heart and soul that we bring to it. It is where we gather with family and friends to share in our successes, lament our failures, and strengthen our connections with our fellow loved ones.


    It is this idea—the hearth or soul of where we live—that we considered when curating items for this year’s Lammas Sabbat Box. We wanted to provide a collection of things and information on how we can better walk our paths when it comes to our homes and hearth, and we hope that you will enjoy what we have put together. This year, as the harvest begins, make sure you remember what all that planting and harvesting is for: to make your own little piece of the world the most prosperous and happiest it can be, to make your residence the very example of hearth, home, and soul.

We want your Sabbat Box to be delivered to you as beautifully as it left us, and it takes a tremendous amount of time to complete this task.

          This includes folding the boxes together, individually cutting each sheet of tissue paper by hand, weighing out the crinkle paper for each box, designing the flyers, coupons, stickers and brochures to be printed professionally by commercial printers, individually placing each item within their corresponding bags, individually assembling the boxes, individually packing the tissue paper within each box by hand and also putting together and creating product packing. This timeframe doesn't even include the efforts made to manage the Sabbat Box website, the back end billing system, social media management, customer service inquiries, accounting, marketing, purchasing, networking, and so on. This is a labor of love and we enjoy serving the community!


          We believe in what it is we are doing and we sincerely hope that each and every one of you can see that the purest of intent and utmost care goes into curating each Sabbat Box.

          Midsummer/Saint John's Day bonfire with festivities in front of a Christian Midsummer (June 21st this year for us in the northern hemisphere) is the celebration of the summer solstice; the time when the daylight is longest, and nights the shortest. More technically speaking, the summer solstice occurs when one of the earth's poles is tilted closest to the sun. As the summer solstice occurs in one hemisphere, the winter solstice will occur simultaneously in the opposite hemisphere. As the year waxes forward after the winter solstice occurs, so does the light of the sun, and since the earliest of times, these celestial events played extremely important roles within many cultures around the world and helped to shape a diverse range of legend, lore and spiritual practices, some of which may be lost to time, others still present to modern day.

          If you look back far enough throughout the history of religion and spirituality as practiced by us sentient beings, you will eventually find that many of the world's spiritual practices and worship had similar origins...many started out as a religion of the Sun and Moon. When one thinks about it, it makes total sense. From our most primitive times as a species, when day to day survival was of the utmost importance, the presence of day and night had a major impact in our efforts to survive, so we started to track the journey of the sun and moon -- literally for the sake of our lives. The sun and moon is where the essence of life and death resided. With each morning's rise of the sun, all that was asleep the night before was awaken and sprung back to life, shedding a light on the unseen dangers that lurked within the veil of darkness. With each rise of the sun during the waxing part of the year also came with it warmth, growth, and the renewal of life. This fiery, life giving energy ended up transforming itself into a myriad of symbolic archetypes that paved way to the foundation of belief systems where deities of the sun were recognized, and were also given that same power to bare life and deliver death as well. 


          Solar DeitiesThese archetypes grew greater in influence over time, and soon we as a people were building places of worship for these symbolic figures, many of which were constructed to coincide with the very movements of the sun, lining up in perfect precision on special celestial events such as the solstices and equinoxes. The very fact that these feats were able to be achieved during more primitive times for humanity is astonishing in and of itself, and further goes to show how significant it was for our ancestors to connect with the all mighty, life giving sun.

          This year’s Midsummer Sabbat Box is all about tapping into the fiery solar energy of the sun, in the same way our ancestors would attempt to draw in and connect with the power of the life giver itself on the summer solstice. We have worked hard to curate a collection of items that will help inspire one to work with that vibrant solar energy of the solstice. The items inside will also aid in assisting one to focus on drawing in the light of the divine and embracing it within our practices and within our lives. By embracing this light we pave a way to help balance the unbalanced and move forward from the stagnant, and give birth to desires we have deep within. The path work done during this time is open and can be “seen” like no other time of the Wheel. It is a time to recognize the importance of this intense solar energy while also having faith that what we have started will bring about a successful finish, and that the natural cycles of light and dark will continue.

          2019 Beltane Sabbat Box - The Rune Box

          Hail and Welcome, Sabbat Box Members and Friends!

          The wheel of the year has turned once again, and we are heading onward towards warmer weather and the summer sabbats. The month of May is home to one of the “greater sabbats” of the Wheel of the Year, Beltane. Beltane, a "fire festival," is the sabbat that falls halfway between the spring equinox and the summer solstice, and is the sabbat opposite of Samhain. During Beltane our ancestors were well aware of the returning sun regaining its dominance over the cold darkness of the winter and early spring, offering a promise of the continuity of life and rebirth. It was a time for seasonal celebration and reverence to life. During Beltane, it is often believed that the veil between the living and the dead may also be lifted or is thinned due to the fact that within the Southern Hemisphere the sabbat of Samhain occurs on the same day as Beltane does in the Northern Hemisphere. During these times in which the walls between our planes of existence are blurred, the spiritually minded will often take advantage of these open realms and attempt to connect with spirit and divine the future throughout a myriad of ways. One of the more popular forms of divination that has been adopted within the Pagan and Wiccan community is rune divination. Runes offer both an ancient written form of communication and sigil magick that is steeped in rich lore and history. Runes offer a glimpse into the minds of the old Germanic people of the past whose wisdom shaped the concept of runes themselves, which in turn shaped how we communicate through language today. Within this special rune themed box for Beltane, we hope that each of our members are able to establish a deep meaningful connection with the magick of runes, while also discovering the hidden wisdom and secrets that the runes have to offer us in order to further extend our knowledge and expand our spiritual foundation.

              All of the items that we curated for you inside this box correspond with -or- may help assist you with the following forms of magick:

              • An intro to runes

              • Learn how to incorporate runes in your practices

              Runes are not just merely letters that helped to shape our modern alphabet, but they are considered to be a powerful and complex form of magick, conceived in the minds of ancients priests and magicians. Runes are a culmination of magick wisdom, mystic symbolism/correspondences, a form a divination, a form of talismanic magick, and a phonetic language, all of which are steeped in lore and historical significance. The commonly used Nordic or Scandinavian system of runes that is used (and we are focusing on for this box) is the Elder Futhark: a system of twenty-four characters used to communicate or mark words and ideas on everything from structures to swords. Today modern Pagans have reconstituted and adopted the runes into various Pagan practices, and regardless of the pantheon of belief, are still to this day considered to represent the ways and wisdom of our past

The set also includes a one-page informational guide describing each rune and their correspondent energy or key element (as well as a few introductory castings and layout ideas to get you started). Each set comes with a super soft velvet bag to keep your set safe and protected when not in use, and to also draw your runes from. We hope your set inspires you to further connect with and learn about divining through runes, and provides an easy way to introduce runic divination into your magickal path.

              Since the focus of this box is runes and the various ways they can be used magickally, we thought we might include a token of protection in the form of a pocket stone. This particular stone is engraved with what is known in Norse traditions as “Vegvisir” — a culmination of staves and runes that represent protection against losing one’s way or difficult obstacles. The set we had custom made includes the Vegvisir stone (etched with golden inlay on black agate), as well as a beautiful guide that goes deeper into the history and lore of this ancient and beloved symbol. Keep your Vegvisir stone in your car, your pocket or purse as an amulet for safe travels, or on an altar as a simple protection talisman. Black agate is commonly used in spiritual practices for its association to protection.

              TIME: We take pride in assembling each and every Sabbat Box by hand, no matter the amount of time it takes. We don't just throw your items inside a flat rate priority mail box like some other subscription box companies out there. We want your Sabbat Box to be delivered to you as beautifully as it left us, and it takes a tremendous amount of time to complete this task.

              This includes folding the boxes together, individually cutting each sheet of tissue paper by hand, weighing out the crinkle paper for each box, designing the flyers, coupons, stickers and brochures to be printed professionally by commercial printers, individually placing each item within their corresponding bags, individually assembling the boxes, individually packing the tissue paper within each box by hand and also putting together and creating product packing. This timeframe doesn't even include the efforts made to manage the Sabbat Box website, the back end billing system, social media management, customer service inquiries, accounting, marketing, purchasing, networking, and so on. This is a labor of love and we enjoy serving the community!


              We believe in what it is we are doing and we sincerely hope that each and every one of you can see that the purest of intent and utmost care goes into curating each Sabbat Box.

              Odin - 2019 Beltane Sabbat Box - The Rune BoxDuring this particular time of the spring, many of our ancestors would begin planting season, if they hadn't done so already, and would have made offerings to the earth and various deities with the specific request of crops abundantly emerging with a bountiful harvest and good return. Like the Wheel of the Year, we turn (our attention) to the upcoming fire festival of Beltane on May the First, where bonfires, feasts, and communities coming together are in focus.

              Within Wiccan lore, during Beltane, the Lord and Lady (The Goddess and The God) have reached the integral point in their perpetual dance to come together in sacred union—with their young adulthood being the result of growing fertility and the ascendancy of light and Sun. Their love and infinite ebb and flow of separation and togetherness is cyclical throughout the seasons and during the turning of the wheel, but during Beltane, they become a symbol of divine union. Within this lore, their coupling of the divine feminine and divine masculine is meant to be a representation of nature around them. Their instinctual coming together to continue the cycle of life that would lead to reproduction, (a fruitful harvest), ultimately provides a way forward for new life to be brought forth -- New life being the ultimate return on love and labor invested.

              And while we have focused the past few year's Beltane Sabbat Boxes on the Gaelic/Celtic and modern Wiccan forms of Beltane celebrations, (which is one of the more commonly observed forms of this festival in observance within modern Paganism), we here at Sabbat Box thought we might offer a primer into another part of the world's practices held during this time of the year: those of the Nordic and Germanic pagans to the east, and the mystical beliefs and system of magick that stems from them: RUNES.

              The Codex Runicus - 2019 Beltane Sabbat Box
              The Codex Runicus


              As one treads onto the path of Germanic and Old Norse systems of Pagan beliefs, you will quickly discover that similar to all spiritual beliefs of old, it is filled with deep history and folklore made up of stories, legends, mythology, poetry as well as shamanic and occult practices. It is with these stories and mythological texts from the Viking age known as the Poetic Edda and the Havamal that people have been able to lay the foundational landscape for what has been molded and adopted into that of modern day Norse Paganism. Modern Norse Paganism is blanket term that can encapsulate the adopted practice of various pre-Christian beliefs during the "Viking Age" of Northern Europe. Norse Paganism is mostly rooted in ritual practice and tradition known as forn sið ("old custom") or heiðinn sið ("heathen customs") that has emphasis on rituals, actions, and behaviors rather than a "religious doctrine" or a "textual belief system" itself.

              Rök RunestoneOne of the larger aspects of those ancient Nordic and Germanic practices that many modern Pagans study and have adopted are the system of runes. Runes are not just merely letters that helped to shape our modern alphabet, but they are considered to be a powerful and complex form of magick, conceived in the minds of ancients priests and magicians. Runes are a culmination of magick wisdom, mystic symbolism/correspondences, a form a divination, a form of talismanic magick, and a phonetic language, all of which are steeped in lore and historical significance. The commonly used Nordic or Scandinavian system of runes that is used (and we are focusing on for this box) is the Elder Futhark: a system of twenty-four characters used to communicate or mark words and ideas on everything from structures to swords. Today modern Pagans have reconstituted and adopted the runes into various Pagan practices, and regardless of the pantheon of belief, are still to this day considered to represent the ways and wisdom of our past.


              It is in the spirit of this ancient time and ancient place that we focus our Beltane Sabbat Box procurement this year. We have collected a number of elements that provide insight into the age-old magick of runes, how they can still speak to us, while further learning what unique practices stem from Norse paganism and how they can help broaden our own spiritual beliefs. We hope that the upcoming summertime brings lots of light and life to you, and we hope that this Beltane Sabbat Box may enhance the bale-fires that we light inside us.
