Ash & Embers: All Bottled Up (Sweet & Sour Jars) 

“A jar for justice, a jar for love”
Unlock the secrets of one of the most versatile tools in folk magic – the Sweet and Sour Jar!

In this hands-on workshop, we’ll explore the history, symbolism, and crafting of both sweetening jars (for love, peace, attraction) and souring jars (for reversal, justice, baneful work). These spells originate from various folk traditions, including Hoodoo, Conjure, and Appalachian rootwork, where containers like jars, bottles, or packets are used to influence energy, relationships, and outcomes.

Whether you’re new to magic or an experienced practitioner, you’ll learn:

• The difference between sweetening and souring spells

• Traditional ingredients and their magical correspondences

• How to personalize your jar for specific goals

• Ethical considerations and cultural roots of the practice

• How to care for, dispose of, or reinforce your jar over time

Bring your intention — leave with a jar and the knowledge to make more.

• Sweet jars (often honey or sugar jars) are used to sweeten a person or situation — to bring love, peace, favour, or cooperation.

• Sour jars use ingredients to sour, confuse, or drive away unwanted energy, people, or behaviors.
