Ritual Poppet

Poppets are a ritual tool used as a form of sympathetic magick, a practice based on the idea that one thing can symbolically represent another. In this case, the poppet represents a person, situation, habit, goal or yourself. Actions performed on the poppet are intended to symbolically influence the target it represents.

These string poppets can be incorporated into almost any style of spellwork, they are lightweight and flexible, making them perfect for placing inside spell jars, charm bags, altar workings, candle rituals, crystal grids and petition work. The poppet becomes a physical focal point for your spell, helping direct energy toward whatever it is you intend.

A poppet can represent yourself, a loved one, a friend or family member, a romantic interest or a specific situation or outcome.
