In metaphysics, a wish box is a container of any size holding magical objects and trinkets representing the owner’s needs. They are often assembled during a ritual while candles are burned.
“For each situation, the contents will be different. For example, to create a wish box to invoke romance, one would put in items such as glass hearts, pink feathers, lovage root, and written details about the partner they wish to summon,” according to Catalog of the Unexplained. “The boxes are kept in the home and opened daily with an incantation spoken over their contents.”
