Tools and Ingredients for a Productivity Spell Jar

• Jar: A jar or bottle of your choice made from glass or ceramic. Cork or wood closings are ideal, but a lid will work, too. 
• Crystals: You can choose from a variety of crystals that each have specific energetic benefits related to improving productivity.
• Dried Botanicals, Essential Oils, or Tinctures: Plants have powerful vibrational effects often parallel with their medicinal uses. So, plants that improve your mental clarity, focus, concentration, and energy, among many other effects, can be added to your spell jar for these powers.
• Incense: Cleansing and aromatic woods, smudge bundles, and incense sticks can be used during your ritual to thoroughly cleanse and prepare your space and ingredients.
• Stationary: Papers and drawing or writing stationary of your choice are needed for writing down your affirmed intention or a power symbol.
• Candle: You can use any available candle or choose a specific color candle for its symbolism and benefits that will help with productivity. White candle (clarity), red candle (strength, determination, and willpower), gray or silver candle (balance and stability), yellow candle (confidence), or gold candle (wealth).
• Salt: Pink Himalayan rock salt or sea salt to add a cleansing effect to your spell. This can include cleansing any lower vibrations that aren’t aligned with your intention of productivity.
• Soil: Soil offers grounding energy and will include this effect into your spell, helping you to be fully grounded in the present, embodying your highest actions and productivity. The inclusion of soil into a spell jar is also cleansing.
• Other Ingredients: You can also include other elements of your choice that contribute symbolically or energetically to your productivity spell.

How to Activate or Use a Productivity Spell Jar

Activating Your Productivity Spell Jar 

A simple way to activate your spell jar is by holding it and repeating your intention affirmations or a series of powerful affirmations related to how your best productivity experience would look and feel.

As ancient witches’ bottles were often found buried near hearts (fireplaces), this was believed to energize the spell so you can decide how you feel about placing your jar near a fireplace as part of your ritual.

It would also be fitting to place your spell in the light of a burning candle to energize the spell. You can meditate with the candle and spell jar to attune deeply.

Using Your Productivity Spell Jar 

Once you activate your productivity spell jar, this powerful energy is set into motion, and you will experience the effects at the speed that you allow this fresh energy to transform your mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual state.

Depending on the size of your jar, you can keep it at an altar space in your home, on your desk at work, or even on your person, in your bag, or smaller jars can be turned into unique charmed jewelry.

If you sometimes wish to refresh or clarify your connection with this spell, hold your jar and repeat your original affirmation written within the paper in the jar or any other productivity-related affirmation. You can also meditate with the jar nearby.

Practical Considerations and Releasing a Spent Spell Jar

The steps for making a spell jar given in this article are designed for a long-lasting spell both energetically and physically, as the ingredients will not quickly degrade. These jars can last a long time and look and feel beautiful.

If you choose to make a spell jar with fresh ingredients that easily degrade or you feel you have completed your work with a particular spell, you may, at some point, wonder how to take your jar apart.

You can dispose of the compostable materials by burying them in the garden and giving thanks to the Earth for these ingredients that contributed to your spell. The jar and crystal can be physically cleaned well and cleansed with incense smoke or other energy-cleansing tools.
