Okay I originally was trying to post this on @pixel_fortune 's profile as a response but it was too long so I'm just creating a thread for it instead.

I'm not sure if this is the right sub-forum for a PGM spell but it feels in the realm of Folk Magick so here we go.

Credit goes to Alison Chicosky for finding the spell and applying it.

PGM CXXIII a 51-55 “For Sleep”

"While the complex material mentioned in some PGM spells has almost become a running joke amongst practitioners, there are also many spells that require no material or something simple like a piece of paper or a leaf.

Recently a friend mentioned that they had been sleeping poorly. I had this spell bookmarked for the next time an opportunity arose because the instructions seemed very simple. They drew the symbols and wrote the words on the bay leaf, then slept with it in their pillowcase. When I asked how they slept the next day they answered “deeply and far too long” so you may want to test this on a night where you can sleep late the next day."

For Sleep: on a bay leaf [write] [charakteres] ΘΑΡΑ ΘΑΡΩ

"Whole dried bay leaves are a common cooking ingredient and can be found most places spices are sold.
This spell does not seem to require any additional ritual or special ink.
Please post about your results if you try this."

Here is a screen shot of the Spell from the Betz text that shows the Special Characters

Here is a pic of Alison's application of the spell on a Bay Laurel Leaf

A note from me - Alison translated thára tharó from the text to the Greek you see on her leaf but you could also write is as "θάρα θαρώ" or "Thara Tharo"

There you go .... a simple spell to fight insomnia.

Happy Dreaming.

It looks like something interesting, although there are many methods to sleep, I wondered about the results of this, I will follow the subject closely, what do the drawn shapes used mean?

They look like star symbols, but who knows with the papyri

I came back here to report that I slept way better last night after using this spell.
Last week was tough; with restless sleep and waking up at 3 a.m., trying everything to get some needed shuteye but it coming back at 4 or 5 a.m. only.
I'll charge it every night for maybe 21 days to check if it makes sense. Usually I get bouts of insomnia here and there according to my cycle and spiritual workings; I guess this spell might help mitigate that in the long run 🤞

After the 21 days with this spell, in addition to solving a conundrum that was contributing to my sleepless nights, my sleep schedule came back to normal. During that period, my dreams were super peaceful, restful, and mundane, featuring no special symbolism or uncomfortable situations, which used to be the norm.

I should try it.

Can see my arrogance when I thought that this so called 'spell' doesn't work, and then I see the picture and immediately get tired :)
