“Pandora’s Box”

Not sure the purpose of this box, nor the implications of opening it. Contains weird symbols, a mouse wrapped up inside floral pot, some type of stone/ crystal on hemp rope. Also had a battery powered light strip inside.

Curious of the meaning of all this. Was In front of a house I was working on. I saw and felt some dark shit in that house.

Bruh made it... Look how fresh that mouse is, they decompose fast so that's a day or two old at max.

This is 100% some sort of spell you opened up, OP.

u/Confident-Skin-6462 1h ago

well no harm done unless op believes in it or the person who buried it finds out and gets sad. otherwise, nothing

"i saw and felt some dark shit in that house." OP is tainted with the fear and believe, but won't admit it outright

I can't decide if it is the grave of said mouse with a protection spell placed on it, or a spell that is using the mouse as an ingredient/component... I'm not sure what though.

The drawings on the papers are sigils; in layman's terms, shorthand form of spells/intentions.

bismuth (the metallic, geometrically shaped thing) has metaphysical links to transformation and transition.

And the crystal looks to be amethyst and quartz, amethyst is often linked to psychic abilities +/ lucid dreams and protection, and clear quartz has amplifying properties, so whatever the intention of the amethyst, the quartz is supposed to amplify it.

Also, why the actual fuck did you open it‽

Survival instincts of a banana. Stop opening malicious stuff or touching things. Hope you ain’t curse yourself OP.

u/Affectionate-Comb-80 1h ago

the mouse was named Pandora and that's her grave, if you took anything out of that box for yourself the consequences are on you.

u/vanillalover111 1h ago

I could be wrong but it gave me the impression it's a witchcraft thing, or a witch's buried box.

u/salmonsashimiplease 1h ago

Okay, I went down the rabbit hole with this completely. I managed to decipher the two sigils, when used together. They spell feed. The magic was a binding spell. With everything taken into context, I believe this was a magic spell cast to feed a thought form.

The form is a creature created to serve the spellcaster in some way. This is an ancient practice of creating an entity literally from your own power of thought.

My suggestion would be to put it back exactly as you found it. It's very likely dark magic.

u/thatchickensauce 13m ago

Thank you. I was hoping someone had deciphered the intention in the sigils

u/Ok-Nefariousness5854 47m ago

Thank you for the info. I put everything back, not how it was arranged though. It Was fascinating, but now concerning that I may have caused a rift.

u/MadRockthethird 1h ago

Is that a dead mouse? Did you bury this?

u/Georgie_Jay 45m ago

Yeahh and it doesn’t look super old either. I could be mistaken and it could be a really well preserved mummy but idk.

u/Imaginary-Bee-8592 37m ago

Dude, theres a whole ass story lasting GENERATIONS saying EXACTLY WHY you dont do that.

IF IT LOOKS HAUNTED DONT TOUCH IT

IF IT FEELS HAUNTED DONT OPEN IT IT

IF SOMEONE SAYS ITS HAUNTED DONT BE AROUND IT.

Go wash your hands, and call a priest or something.

Nah, but forreal, please be careful, sometimes they can have something sharp or a biohazard.

This almost looks like someone suffered a loss of an intended child. The lights trip is new. Can you wrap it in some cloth (politely) and bring it to trash that way? Please make sure where you bring your box, place it down gently, please. Make sure you wear gloves, too.

Flip it upside down and shake it a little! Maybe bang on the bottom! Hope for all mankind must have got stuck the last time that thing was opened.

Bro why would you open this? I’m pretty sure this is witchcraft. It’s probably spells I’m assuming harmful as well….

There are no implications. Someone playing pretend. Whether they realize it or not is another story.
