The Pocket Charm of the Sealed Matchstick
A flame burns, but when sealed, it waits. This charm is for those who carry fire in their chest — quick tempers, restless spirits, and sparks of inspiration that risk burning too fast. Bound in thread, the charred matchstick becomes a vessel: a way to contain fire without extinguishing it.
How to Make It:
1. Burn a single match until its tip is blackened.
2. Let it cool completely.
3. Wrap the matchstick’s body with black thread, but leave the charred head visible.
4. Carry it when your temper, passion, or energy feels difficult to control.
How to Use:
Hold the sealed match in your palm and whisper: “Contained.”
The fire waits, steady and unspent.
Notes:
Renew by rewrapping the thread when it frays.
Retire by burning the matchstick completely in candle flame.
