Countdown to Baptism: Protective Amulet Parchment

2007_07050001


I drew this protective "Jehonah, Jehovah, Jehovah" amulet prachment like the one Joseph Smith and his family, as well as other early Mormon's, kept above the door in their homes (source, Early Mormonism and the Magic World View by D. Michael Quinn). I added below it Calendula flowers, picked at highnoon and strung together with a red thread which is a charm I found in American Folk Magick by Silver RavenWolf.
