I visited the #Meuseum of #Witchcraft and #Magic in Boscastle. It’s a pretty small building, but it’s full of really interesting artifacts. Here are some pictures I took.
@ElisRowlands There were depictions of what #witches have been thought of over the years.
@ElisRowlands These are some of the ways to divine the future. I knew about reading tea leaves, but I was surprised to learn that drops of molten lead was also used.
One of the things I found most interesting was this carving of a labyrinth leading to the Otherworld. Tracing your finger along it could lead to the sacred centre.
This was the second time I've visited the #Museum of #Witchcraft and #Magic, and it was a great little experience. Boscastle is a beautiful town and I recommend visiting if you're ever nearby.
All the #magical artifacts were fascinating and really gripped my imagination. Seeing real magical objects gave me a much better idea of what was used in #magic and #witchcraft. Hopefully I can use this #inspiration to #write some #fantasy.
