Witches ladder, pagan prayer beads, Wiccan beads, stainless steel, blue satin matte glass, Witches knot charm, tree of life charm, Wiccan

This beautiful blue Witches ladder is hand-wired using stainless steel eye pins and features satin-matte glass beads and two silver-toned metal charms.

Although not done in feathers and sticks, like traditional witches ladders, this ladder is done in four groupings of 3, 7, 9, and 21 beads, all important numbers to witches and other Pagan groups.

This witches ladder can be used as prayer beads, for dowsing or divination, in spell-work, or worn as a necklace.

The beads are 8mm blue satin matte glass pearls.

The beads are hand-wired using stainless steel eye pins and my trusty little looper tool.
The jump rings are bright aluminum.
The charms and chain are silver-toned plated alloy metal. They are lead, nickel, cadmium, and arsenic-free.

In between the sections of 3, 7, 9, and 21 beads, I've added short lengths of silver-toned metal oval flat chain.

At one end is a witches knot silver-toned metal charm.

The other end has a silver-toned metal tree of life charm.

The witches ladder measures about 28 3/4 inches from the tip of one charm to the bottom of the other charm.

A lobster claw clasp can be added to make this witch ladder/pendulum wearable.

All prayer beads and pendulums will come in a small organza bag for safe storage.

I will be adding more information about the symbolism of the colors, numbers, and types of stones used, as well as the properties of the stones, magical and otherwise.

I also plan to add information about various pagan paths, how to use a pendulum for dowsing, and other miscellaneous pagan-related tidbits.

------------------------------------------------------------
“The Witches’ Knot” is also known as the Magic Knot and the witch charm. It has become a symbol of protection against malevolent witchcraft. History tells us the witches used knotted cords to “tie up” the weather, to create circles of protection, and to bind things magically. Our Witches’ Knot design is made up of four inter-laced vesica piscis. The vesica piscis is a world-wide symbol for the yoni, the feminine creative force that gave birth to the universe. The interlacement represents the feminine control of the forces of nature. The circle is one of the primary female symbols representing the sacred or consecrated space. The spirals form the sign of the serpent. The serpent is the oldest symbol of female energy, the embodiment of enlightenment and wisdom. This combination of cogent symbols makes the “Witches’ Knot” and awe-inspiring representation of female might and power!
