Celtic Diary
Is this a real thing Celtics did? Or made up?
Firstly: I am COMPLETELY aware the the Vampire Diaries IS NOT REAL. Fiction is fiction.
But, L.J. Smith seems to base her stories off of some sort of reality. In one of the books, a girl named Bonnie does a spell where she takes wax of a candle and makes shapes, like symbols. One was a Celtic symbol for unity (?) and there were some others. What I want to know is this completely made up or based off of some reality?
I don't need people saying magic is of the devil or that it doesn't exist. Because I don't care about your opinion.
I don't plan on trying it, I'm not even sure if it's true, ha ha. ;-]
It is said (for example, by Gerald Gardner) that beeswax was used by witches to make pentacles. That is not historical fact - we do not know that witches ever made pentacles before the mid-20th Century.
However, wax is commonly used to make small-scale devotional sculptures, seals and of course fetishes used in folk magic.
It is quite conceivable that it would have been used to make symbolic casts in such a way as you describe, but there will clearly be no archaeological evidence of this.
If you are intending to try anything like this at home, please be very careful. Molten wax causes very bad burns if you spill it, and it is also highly inflammable!
