I am busy making elemental vessels to be resovoirs for the power of the elements. These two are air and water. Inside are placed items that represent those elements. They will be hung in their respective directions in the temple room to aid coven magic. #mandragoramagika

The accusation sparked one of America’s greatest injustices – The Salem Witch Trials. Though they lasted a little more then a year, over 20 people died (either via execution or while imprisoned) before the Witch Trials ended in May of 1693.
