24 Steps to Construct a Spell
1. Clearly understand and define your magickal goal.
Write it down or state it out loud to help form it solidly in your mind. By
doing this you begin to invest the spell and the desired outcome with your
emotions and energy. If you have more than one need, you may wish to spread
them out. You can work more than one spell at a "session," but doing
so will dissipate and scatter your energies, leaving less for each spell. If
you feel you must do multiple spells, limit them to three and try to relate
them in some way, so that the energy you raise remains as focused as possible.
2. Be sure of the ethics of your hoped-for outcome. Approach the spell from all
angles to satisfy yourself that you are not violating anyone else's free will
or being manipulative. Many witches like to do a divination first, to be doubly
sure that their spell will not have any unforeseen ramifications. If the
results of the divination are negative, try rethinking your intent to see if
you can circumvent the problem. Then do another divination and see what comes
up.
3. If you wish to use a specific element as a focus for your magick, decide which one is most appropriate and collect
items to represent that energy.
4. Plan how you will visualize your goal and believe in what you see. The
powers of the mind are only just now beginning to be explored by science. We
have all heard stories of terminal patients who have healed themselves, and of
faith healers who use belief to manifest miracle cures. Visualization uses that
power to form mental pictures that are invested with personal energy and
emotion. It is the soul that breathes life onto all magick,
and the soul that is the most important element in its outcome. The moment you
start visualizing the resolution of a magickal need
is the moment you begin to create the changes in your deep mind necessary for
the magick to manifest.
5. If you are working with advanced magic, you will need to prepare a
long-range plan in accordance with the above guidelines. This will entail
checking moon phases, laying in enough supplies for the duration of the spell,
and planning how the energy can be sustained through each day.
6. Gather candles, stones, or whatever else you intend to use as a catalyst for
your focus or to direct the energy you will raise. Empower those items with
your personal energy by projecting into them the energy of your goal. Keep in mind that these tools, including your
cherished ritual tools, have no power in and of themselves. The power is not in
the tools, but inside the Witch trained to use them. Without you, they are
useless. They merely provide a way to focus your energy and a means for
directing it towards its goal.
7. Decide upon your "words of power," the words or chants you will
use to help focus and raise energy. You may write them out, or simply remember
key phrases you wish to use as you improvise. Some Witches like to create
simple
poems so they will be easier to remember.
8. If you wish to use a special deity or mythic figure in your magick, decide on which one or ones, and how you will
evoke, invoke, and/or honor them. You
may wish to write out special prayers or blessings and memorize them.
9. Decide when you want to do the spell. This can be any time you personally
need the magick, at the time when you coven regularly
meets, or you may wish
to take into consideration moon phases and/or other astrological
influences. If your life is as busy as most's people's today, you may have to choose the only
night when you will be free and alone. The timing is much less important than
the energy you bring to the spell.
10. At the appropriate time, gather what you will be using and go to the place
where you will perform the spell. This can be at your altar, indoors, or outdoors,
at your coven meeting site, or anywhere else that feels appropriate,
comfortable, and private.
11. Cast your circle and, if you like, call the quarters, or do as you would
when opening up any other ritual. If you are using advanced magickal
techniques you will definitely need to employ these visualizations to be
effective.
12. Your magick is now beginning in earnest. Invite
whatever elementals, faeries, spirits,
or deities you wish to have present as you work. They should always be welcome,
but they are not necessary for spellwork.
13. Clear your mind and begin visualizing your goal. This is probably the most
important step in the spell-casting process and you should invest the mental
image with as much energy as you can muster. Recall your need and make your
emotional connection with it as deep as you can, on as many levels as possible.
14. Raise energy within yourself and pour it into the magickal
object(s) in whatever way feels right to you. This can be done as a mental
projection, through dance or song, or intense visualization.
15. Do whatever physical actions your spell requires. Some need no special
actions, but many require some basic movement, even if it is only lighting a
candle. Use your words of power, light your candles, bury your herbs, mentally
charge your stones, and/or raise your cone of power.
16. Take advantage of natural phenomena that can help you raise energy. A
storm, for instance, is an excellent source of energy that any Witch can draw
upon to help feed a spell. Allow yourself to become part of the storm and feel
yourself physically drawing on its vast stores of energy as you seek to raise
your own energies or cone of power.
17. When you feel you have put as much energy into the spell as you possibly
can, send the energy out to do your will. You can visualize this as a cone of
power being sent out, or use any other mental image you like. Body language
helps, too. Relax, throw up your arms, raise a tool, kneel, send out a cone of
power, or do whatever else makes you feel the energy go forth. Be sure to
direct it out from you visually as well.
18. You should finish your spell with words such as the traditional "So
Mote It Be." Mote is an obsolete word for "must". The phrase is
synonymous with "Amen," "So It Is," and "It Is Done".
It is a statement of completion and an affirmation that you know your magick is successful. All magick
is worked from the point of view that the desired goal is already manifest - it
will not come to be, but IT IS. Always phrase your magickal
desires in the present tense; for example, "I have love in my life
now," or "My bills are now paid in full." Talking of magick happening in the future will keep it forever in the
future, always just out of reach.
19. Meditate briefly on your goal. Again, visualize it as already manifest.
Smile, breathe a sigh of relief, and know the magick
is already at work for you.
20. Thank and dismiss all faeries, spirits, and deities who have come to
witness or aid in your magick.
21. Ground your excess energy into the earth and open your circle. Excess
energy, raised during your spell work but not full sent away from you when you
sent it to do its job, lingers on and around you. The best way to ground this
excess is to place your hands, palms side down on the earth, into a bowl of
soil, or on the floor of your home. Physically and psychically feel the excess
energy draining out of you. Know that it is being absorbed and dispersed into
mother earth.
22. If you have ritualized your spell, dismiss your quarters or do whatever other
endings your rituals traditionally require. If you are working your magick with a coven this is standard practice.
23. Record your spell in your Magickal Diary or Book
Of Shadows with the date, time, weather conditions, and any astrological data
you wish to include. This will be useful later when you have done enough spells
to look for patterns. For example, you may see that your most efficacious
spells were done on Sundays or when it was cloudy or snowing, or when you had
faeries present, worked with a particular deity, burned green candles, or when
the moon was full. Everyone has different affinities, These patterns will help
you pick the best times for your spellwork.
24. Back up your desire on the physical plane. This is a must. For example, if
you have done a spell for healing don't avoid seeing your doctor. You will need
all the help at your disposal to overcome your illness, and magick
and medical science make great partners.
Until you achieve your magickal goal you
should spend some time each day focusing on it by clearly visualizing it as a
fait accompli. These added boosts of daily energy can often mean the difference
between success and failure.

Before you go to
your job interview, you will need a green candle, a banknote, and a paperclip.
Light the candle and show both sides of the banknote to the flame. Fasten the note to the back of a photograph
of yourself. Blow out the candle.
Carry your photo, with the note attached, in your handbag or wallet during your
interview.
Herbal charms kept in your pocket or purse are good ways to carry magick with you during interviews or while job seeking.
Sprinkle a little sage, lavender, dill, basil and parsley into a green cloth
and add a tigers eye chip or small stone. Tie with a golden ribbon. Carry this
to magnetize prosperity while you radiate wisdom and knowledge.
Take applications home with you whenever possible. After you have filled them
out, raise energy and charge then with the intent of drawing the right
job/position to you.
Draw or paint the runes Ansuz, Tir
and Mannaz over your heart with a non-toxic
marker (or eyeliner even) before you get dressed to go to an interview. Allow
to
dry first before dressing (of course) and perhaps put a light shirt or slip
between your clothes and skin. [I would even say that you could create a
talisman with these runes instead of drawing them on yourself and carry that
close to your heart or wear in a pouch if you chose.] These runes enable clear
communications and will encourage others to come to your aid. These runes also,
when drawn on the phone, will invite good news to come over the wire.
This is best begun on the night of the New Moon:Use
an astral candle for
yourself - your color, A brown candle for the job itself,A
green candle for prosperity
Burn a prosperity incense and annoint the candles
with a
prosperity oil - I would use cinnamon. Annoint from
wick to end.
These candles should be in a safe place, they have to burn out entirely. Place
the brown candle in the center, the green on the right, and the astral on the
left.
Light the astral :
I ask for change,that is my right, open The way,
clear my sight.
Light the green :
Good luck is mine and prosperity, help me Great Ones, come to me.
Light the brown :
Say the above as you light the candles. Leave these to burn out completely and
dispose of the wax afterwards.
Each night, for a week, or until the candle is used up,
light a second brown candle for 9 minutes while meditating and gaining
balance in preparation for the job and the good to come. During this
time period, Actively seek a job. Listen to your intuition and follow up
on all leads.

To make a
talisman to draw new love into your life you will need a Moon-drenched night,
preferably during a Full Moon, and a needle and thread and some pink or red
felt. Swe the felt into a small pouch, and place
items magically charged to draw love- love letters, your nail clippings, song
lyrics, and love herbs such as vanilla, rue, myrtle, violet, rose, apricot,
apple, yarrow, rosemary, thyme, meadowsweet, lemon, dragon's blood, clove, or
dill. A rose or clear quartz crystal may also be added. Sew up the pouch while
the light of the Moon washes over it and say: "By my hands the spell is
begun; love comes to me through what I have
done."
Rededicate the talisman at each Full Moon and carry it with you until you find
the love you seek.

To increase
sexual attraction, cast this spell when the Moon is waxing, and during the
season at or near Beltane or the start of Lammas. To begin, girdle your thigh
with a green garter. Become an Aphrodite(entranced by thoughts of love) as you
place this erotic symbol about your limb, and light a pink or green candle in
honor of the beauteous goddess, saying: "Venus, Astarte,
Inanna, Ishtar, may your
power be compounded in this garter I wear." Imagine the ancient impetus to
merge and procreate summarized on your thigh, spreading its irresistible aura
about your person. Now say: "Let only those I choose perceive this
charm." After all, you do not want every Tom, Dick and Harriet harassing
you. Concentrate until you feel your allure. Establish your magnetism with a
confident smile.
by Kala Trobe
Every Full Moon
light a white (blessing) and a pink (happiness) and black
candle in gratitude to the Fates. View the Moon before you light them, then
say:
The kind Fates have blessed my home,
The kind Fates have blessed my heart,
The kind Fates have blessed my loved ones,
I offer thanks with a humble heart.
I thank the Goddess for my life,
I thank the Goddess for my love.
I thank the Goddess for continued blessings
already on their way.
Blessed be.
Also burn some high-quality incense, the best you have. Do this each month
to make your good fortune last.
Use this spell
to attract someone who desires you, yet is shy in expressing their feelings.
Start by melting some red candle wax and molding it in the shape of a phallus
if you are female, or a womb if you are male. Once the wax is dry, sensuously
anoint the candle with olive oil, as if you were attending your lover,
thinking hard on
the intimacy you desire as you do so. Light the candle. Now, write your lover's
name three times on a piece of white paper, and burn it in the flaming wick,
praying that your lover will come to you. While the paper burns, recite your
lover's name out loud three times, then blow out the candle. Try to
patiently for
your lover to respond to your magic.
by Marguerite Elsbeth
This is one of
the most delicate spells that exists. The first rule of order with any spell is
not to manipulate anyone. This spell will not work if you have anyone specific
in mind. It is utterly important that you perform this spell with a pure heart,
and mind. Karma can be a charming, generous friend, or a wicked beast. It is
all up to you! This is not a 'sex' spell, this a spell for someone who wishes
to begin a loving relationship, with a compatible mate.
The Ingredients:
One light
colored candle to represent the male. (yang, suggested color, white.)
One dark colored
candle to represent the female. (yin, suggested color, black.)
One pink candle
for the magic. (must be pink!)
At least one
flower. (roses, gardenias, daisies, tulips.)
Some kind of
food offering. (apple, berries, sugar, cinnamon)
A chalice of
wine, or juice. (red wine, red grape juice)
A crystal. (rose
quartz, amethyst, clear quartz)
Herbs: Lavender,
cardamom, spearmint, yarrow, aloe, catnip, clove, lotus, mandrake, chili
pepper. (use at least three of the herbs suggested.)
A red or pink
cloth as big as your hand, and a white string.
The Spell
Gather together
your tools in a dark quiet space. Follow the beginning meditation on the Spell
Craft page. Make sure you are comfortable and your candles are at a safe
distance from flammable materials.
At this time
address your 'spiritual power', what you may call god, and or goddess. Ask
'it'/'them' to come into your space, and assist you with this magical rite.
Address them verbally, from your hearts center. At this time, carve a heart
symbol in the pink candle, and any other symbols that represent love to you. On
the candle (male or female) that represents you carve your astrological symbol
and your initials. On the other candle carve a Venus or mars symbol
(O+,0->). Conjure love in your heart as you light the pink spell candle.
Think of yourself in a happy relationship as you light the candle that
corresponds to you. Envision a loving mate as you light the last candle. Pause
for a moment and drink in the wonderful scene you have created. Mix your herbs
in a mortar, or in a bowl with your hands. Meditate on your new partnership,
the feelings of love, the activities you will share, things that make you
joyous. This should take you at least 15 minutes. If you are untrained at
meditation, please be patient, and take your time. It is also good to chant as
you do this.
"Candle
Glow, Night wind blow, Moon light show, My love to flow."
When you are
finished, wrap your herbs in the cloth, and tie it with the string. This string
should have 6 knots (the number of Venus). Draw the symbols of Venus and mars
on the 'sachet' you have just made.
Now is the time
to give your offerings to 'spirit'. Hold the vessel that contains your
offerings above your head. With enthusiasm verbally give your thanks, and offer
up your gifts, with sincerity. Drink half the wine (juice) out of your chalice.
You may wish to do the chanting again, or continue with the closing of the
rite. Thank the 'spirit' for assisting you in this rite, and say "Go if
you must, stay if you will. I release you." Then pinch the candles out.
See the Spell Craft page for the losing.
After the rite is done, leave your offerings outside, in a grassy area. If this
is impossible wrap them in a paper bag, and lay them in a garbage can outside.
May your magic be fruitful!
"May love
enter your door, and reside evermore."
On a popsicle
stick, write your full name. On the other side of the
popsicle stick, write anothers person's full name.
Get a jar big enough to
put the popsicle stick inside and fill the jar with water, honey and sugar.
Seal up the lid of the jar tight so that its contents can't spill out. In
your mind get a clear image of the person whose name you have written on the
popsicle stick opposite your own. Shake the bottle as you chant three,
five, seven or nine times;
Sweet, sweet,
thoughts of me,
you will think,
constantly.
It is said that each time you shake the bottle, the person will think sweet
thoughts of you.
To make an oil
that will help attract the attention of others, mix together twenty drops of
synthetic musk, two drops of jasmine, and one drop of ylang
ylang in a small bottle and leave where the full
moonlight can strike it for three nights. Be sure to bring it inside before the
Sun can find it. Meanwhile, leave a rose petal, a small piece of crystal
quartz, and 1/8teaspoon of powdered cinnamon in a place where the Sun can see
them, making sure to move them before moonlight can strike them. On the forth
day, mix together the two sets of ingredients and leave in a dark place. Wear
when you wish to draw love and admiration to yourself. It will also enable your
employers to see what they love about your work for them.

The Legend:
Used in an
ancient love potion as recorded by Aristotle. Also an old custom
was to steep Vervain in hot water, strain the liquid of the herb, and
add
the cleared
liquid to other water used to clean the home or as a spray.
This brew was
known as the Brew of Juno or Juno's Brew, and its use was to
rid the premises
of evil spirits and malignant forces. The dry vervain
was
also carried as
a charm.
To attract new
love, anoint a pink candle and ourselves with rose oil. Place
a rose quartz in
front of the candle, and the Ace of Cups, the Page of Cups,
and the Lovers
card from your favorite tarot deck left to right in front of
the quartz. Following your breath, light the candle,
saying three times:
"Gentle
love, come to me. Lift the veil so I can
see." Without visualizing
a specific
person, imagine the soft, romantic, nurturing beginnings of a new
love. After fifteen minutes, extinguish the candle
and walk away. Begin on
the first Friday
of the New Moon and perform every night until Full Moon,
letting the
candle burn all the way down on the last day.

The Legend:
Said to be an ingredient of a love potion; dill was steeped in hot wine
which when drunk was claimed to excite the passions.
To promote
happiness and prosperity, take four silver dollars, bearing the current year if
possible, and place them face up on the ground at the four corners of your
home. Along with the coins, place some rue and vervain,
a sprig of wheat, a few raw corn kernels, and a few pink or red rose petals. As
you bury these things, say: "Bright coins, bless this house. Replace our
worries with happiness and prosperity!" Do this during the waxing Moon for
best results.

green-inked pen; your favorite incense.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Draw the astrological sign of Taurus at the top of the
strip. Write on
the paper: "Holy Mother, manifest what I place upon
this list."
Make a list of what you desire on the paper (you will have a
lot of extra
space - that's okay). Roll the paper tightly into a little
scroll. Pass the
list over the incense, repeating the above charm nine
times. Place the
scroll in your purse, wallet, on your altar, by your
desk, etc.,
wherever you can add to it when you desire or hold in
your hand and

full and you
have received all that you asked for, thank Rosemerta,
burn
the paper, and

This spell is intended to attract prosperity to an individual and promote
fortune on
economic levels. It focuses on the Consecration of an actual coin with the
power of the Rune Feoh and the Principle that
"like attracts like." Correct use of this spell creates a state of
abundant consciousness rather than a state of poverty. That way we are making a
magnet for the good things in life, Including money. Warning: Misuse of this
spell with negative intentions and greed may result in the spell becoming a
curse instead of a blessing.
First you must
choose a day.
Thursday Jupiter-money day, or Sunday Sun-success day
or you may choose Friday Freya's day (the chosen
Goddess for this Spell)
Then Choose a Runic Hour suitable to your needs, Sunna
or Freya.
Cover Your Altar with a gold or a red Cloth, Place the Feoh
rune upon the altar between two yellow golden candles.
Place the coin in front of the rune. And with your Forefinger, Draw the sign of
feoh over it.
Cast Your Circle and call the quarters in a clockwise direction, And repeat the
following:
Feoh-Feoh-Feoh
Come golden Fire of the rhine,
Along the path of the serpant
By freya's glowing tears,
By the golden Leaves of Glasir,
By the magick ring Draupnir,
By the shimmering hair of Sif.
In the glittering hoard of fafinr,
By the red-gold brisingamen:
Freya the fair hearken now--
May precious amber shower down,
And streams of gold flow hither,
enriching me with blessed gifts.
Mother habondia, Hearken now--
Abundance be my lot,
And wealth bright glory !
Then, concentrate on the rune feoh while imagining
steams of gold flowing
into the circle towards yourself, And a cascade of golden coins showering down
upon you. This visualization must be as vivid as possible in conjunction with
the runic chant above.
End the spell by drawing the feoh sign over the coin
again. You may carry the coin as a talismanic attractor, or leave it on your
Alter to bring prosperity onto your doorstep. On completion of this spell add sybil leek's verse of protection: "may this spell not
reverse or place upon me any curse."
Green tea should
be brewed and drunk on a new moon to increase your
monthly earnings. As you brew the tea, visualize the ways in which you can
increase your income. Try to focus o short term goals as this is a spell that
should be maintained on a monthly basis. Place a spoon in your glass and stir
the tea clockwise once your visualizations are clear. This will set them in
motion.
You need: some money or pictures of cash, checks and jewels to be placed on
the altar drums for raising energy Put the money on the altar, not as an
object to worship but as a symbol to your deep mind of what you want to
obtain. You may wish to place a goddess statue or another religious symbol
behind the symbolic wealth, as a reminder that money is not after the
ultimate value. Then, stand up, and drum and chant to raise power. Your
chant can be something like : Wealth , wealth , come to me , I deserve
prosperity. As the power moves toward its peak , imagine a huge transparent
funnel over you, and huge amounts of cash , checks and other forms of
wealth cascading down through it to pile up around you. Give thanks for the
wealth which you know will be headed your way. Open the circle. Afterwards,
go seek a job if you don't have one or ask for a raise, and always give
money to charities. Soon prosperity will come to you.
Each pool, stream, mountain, lake, rock,
comet, well, star, tree,
flower, wee, and so on, has its own energy vibration, just as animals
and people do. Like vibrations melt together to create a collective
unconscious. In the elemental world, these collective energies are
known as the sylph's (air), the gnomes (earth), the salamanders (fire),
and the undines (water).
Moving through history we find that almost all cultures and
civilizations view earth, air, water, and fire as the four elements,
with this belief first put into focus by the Sumerians. The gnomes,
salamanders, sylphs, and undines were considered superhuman in nature,
born from the four rivers flowing from the belly of the Great Mother and
representing the four fluids of the diving feminine: water, blood,
honey, and milk, corresponding to water, fire, air, and earth,
respectively. Using this information, i created the
following Elemental
Abundance Spell.
SUPPLIES: Four small bowls: fill one with water, one with dragons blood
herb (can substitute red powder or red pepper), one with milk, and one
with honey; a picture of yourself.
INSTRUCTIONS: At
a pentacle in the dirt, sand, or snow with your finger.
At the top of the star, place a representation of yourself (the
picture). Going clockwise, place the bowls in the following order:
Right arm of pentacle - east; air; honey. Right lower arm of pentacle -
south; fire; dragons blood. Left lower arm of pentacle - west; water.
Left upper arm of pentacle - north; earth; milk. As you say the
following words, touch each point containing the corresponding element
with your hands:
Spirit of myself, I call prosperity to myself.
Spirits of the
north, by my will and desire,
I call forth the
blessings of gnomes.
Spirits of the
east, by my will and desire,
I call forth the
blessing of the sylphs.
Spirits of the
south, by my will and desire,
I call forth the
blessing of the salamanders.
Spirits of the
West, By my will and my desire,
I call forth the
blessings of the undines.
Spirit of the
life force, that which pulses and
Surrounds me, I
ask for positive abundance
And prosperity
in my life. My choices and
Possibilities
expand everyday.

book "Silver's Spells for Prosperity"

ITEMS NEEDED: A
green incense (either stick or cone) and a green, gold, or
silver candle, plus a voided check, a light green piece of paper and dark
green marker or an actual piece of currency.
This is a very easy one, and may be a little.....strange but it works for me!
LOL
INSTRUCTIONS: Take the items to your computer (don't ask, I did it the first
time at the puter, and the second time, it just felt
right, so I did it
again). Turn your computer on, and get online.
Light the candle (preferably taper, but doesn't "HAVE" to be, I used
a taper
for the first and a votive for the second).
Light the incense stick/cone with the candle. (hint: it is easier with a
taper)
Visualize how much you need to get you "out of the hole".
Then, visualize the flame of the candle being either the dollar ammount you
need or just see it as the $$ symbol in the flame.
Chant "Money money come to me with harm to none
so mote it be". 13 is my
lucky number, so I repeat it 13 times, you can use your lucky number or, just
do it until it feels right for you to stop.
Start checking your mail, playing an online game, cruise web sites, etc. In
other words, forget about it, put the spell out of your mind while you surf,
but let the candle and incense burn out completely.
After the candle has burned out, gather the remains (of the candle AND the
incense) and either the voided check with the ammount
you need (you can leave
the "Pay to" line blank or make it out to yourself), an actual piece
of
currency (dollar, quarter, whatever you use in your country) or a light green
piece of paper with dark green writing of the dollar ammount
you need. Bury
them all together near your home, as close as possible to the front
door/mailbox.
Both times I have done this, we have recieved the
money within a week, once
it was a VERY late b-day check of mine (my b-day is Jan. 20, I did the spell
in/and it came in June from my hubby's grandma) and once it was a check I had
been waiting on for 3 months from a friend who owed me money and I thought I
was never going to see again.

............................voodoo folklore
The legend: A voodoo belief on how to make life smooth and serene without
strife or lack of money was to use Easy Life oil (mix together two parts of
cinnamon and one part of chamomile and one part of peony. Add two
tablespoons of this herb mixture to two ounces of oil OPTIONAL......one
tonka bean to each bottle of oil made.....in a ritual
of candleburning. A
green candle was anointed or 'dressed'. as the voodooist would say, with
the oil, and burned for ten minutes each day for five consecutive days. On
the sixth day, five drops of oil were put on a piece of paper which was
burned to ashes in the flame of the
candle. The ashes were wrapped in a red cloth and kept as a form of charm
bag to complete the spell......
.............................voodoo folklore
The legend;
Old New Orleans Voodoo was the birthplace of this green colored perfumed oil
called Money Drawing Oil (mix equal parts of the following: frankincense,
myrrh and sandlewood. Use two tablespoons of this
mixture to two ounces of
oil. A bit of bayberry herb is added to each bottle of oil made) As the
name indicates, voodoo belief was that it draws money to its user. A few
drops were put on money; the thought being that after the money was spent,
it would return, in a sense, many fold.........
Basil is well
known as a money drawing herb. Here's a spell you can do on your lunch hour to
bring money your way. To start, go to a Thai restaurant and order a dish that
includes basil, hot chilies, and ideally coconut milk. There should be at least
one such dish on any Thai menu. Order this dish during business lunches, or
bring it back to work to eat in the lunchroom. If you own a business, let the
scent of the basil dish waft through your workplace. Say aloud or to yourself:
"Oh Basilia, Goddess of plenty, your rich green
leaves bring us prosperity, health, and love. Help our business grow and
prosper." Then, as a gesture to Basilia, buy a
basil plant the next time you visit a garden shop. Keep it at work and keep it
watered and healthy. Your business should thrive.

This is a very
easy spell. Take one lemon and punch a hole with a pencil halfway through the
fruit.
On a small piece
of paper, write: "Please help me curb my frivolous spending habits without
harming my prosperity or personal desires." Roll up the paper and put the
scroll in the lemon. Tie the lemon with a black ribbon and hang near your
kitchen window.

With water
colors or chalk, draw or write the bad habit on a piece
Of paper. Immediately
take it out into the rain. Let the rain dissolve
and disperse the
water colors or chalk. So shall your habit dissolve,
cleansed by the
sanctifying rain.
If you wish to
be free from a habit, thought, idea; if you wish to be rid
of past
associations, guilt or blockages; take the symbols of that problem -
whatever they
may be - & throw them onto a raging fire. The fire will consume
the symbols
& so shall it consume the power they had over you. For the
symbols think a
moment - if you overeat, take a portion of your favorite food
& throw it
onto the fire. Smoking, drinking the same. For problems which utilize no
concrete objects, draw a symbol or image & burn. For getting rid of things (like habits,
houseguests, etc.), I always like to add a bath element. After your ritual,
take a bath in the appropriate herbs/oil. During the bath, relax and focus on
how your life will be without X. Wash X away from you. When you pull the plug,
stay in the tub until the water has completely drained out, watching X go down
the drain!!!

Tools: yellow
candle with holder, rose petals, lavender oil, small garnets,
carnelian or
turquoise stone, small jar with lid or plastic bag that seals,
picture of
yourself healthy.
Charge yellow
candle with desired goal and place in holder . As you light the candle,
visualize yourself passing on second helpings of food, small portions on your
plate and looking healthy and physically fit.
Charge rose
petals, oil and stones.
Sprinkle petals
around candle, again visualize your goal.
Place the
charged garnet stones and a few drops of oil into the jar or bag. As you do this visualize again.
Then pick up the
petals and place them into the jar or bag also. Seal the jar or bag and say:
"By this
jar/bag of powered oil, petals and stones, it will bring me courage and help me
meet my goal to not eat or snack as much and become healthier."
Visualize
yourself becoming healthier and moving the weight on the scale to the left.
Carry this jar
or bag with you and sniff charged items before eating.
Rub the charged
carnelian or turquoise on the picture of yourself then rub onto your body while
visualizing yourself become the you in the picture. Say:
"In no way
will this spell cause me to suffer any adverse effects. So mote it be!"
Carry the stone
with you and rub it when you have the urge to snack or eat too much.
Hang the picture
up in your kitchen to view.
Allow the candle
to burn for another hour then snuff it out and put away. Burn it whenever you need the moral support
General Uses:
Inspiring or banishing behavior patterns and customs. Changing tendencies and
dispositions.
Timing: 1)
Develop positive attributes waning, to full moon' moon in Leo or Sagittarius:
Thursday or Saturday; the month of October. 2) Ridding negative
attribute-waning moons; moon in Gemini, Capricorn, or Aries; Monday (for
healing); the months of March and July.
Props/Focals: Representations of the habit or characterization.
Items that can grow or be reduced according to your ultimate goal. Examples of
this includes yeast bread dough, which rises to encourage positive attributes,
or soda pop left to go flat, which reduces negative energy. Pone, nutmeg,
ashes, and butterflies (transformations. The colors red or green,
Secondary
Listings: Adaptation, Banishing, Choices, Dedication, Liberation, Overcoming,
Versatility, and Victory.
Sample Spells:
To develop a good habit, defrost a loaf of frozen bread dough. Knead in some
nutmeg and any other edible that represents that action. For example, add apple
slices to stimulate thoughtfulness before action. Once your ingredients are
prepared, follow the directions for rising and baking as given on the package.
Add a verbal
element either before cooking or eating. In this illustration, such an
incantation accompanying baking might be: "Bread of earth, rise for me;
with wisdom wrought my thought will be." Or, upon eating, try:
"Wisdom within, wisdom without, let this magic come about."
(modified by keltie )
Bread of earth,
rise for me; with wisdom wrought my thougts will
be...
Teach me how to
spend with care, Lift the load that I now bear..
Resolve &
let the dollars in-flow, unnecessary spending I must slow..
Resources
husband and not loose, allow me now to wisely use "
To give this
spell an additional boost, carve a symbol of your goal into the bread before it
bakes. The heat will activate your magical energy. I also heartily encourage
making bread dough from scratch. Nothing beats the flavor, texture, and
personal energy in homemade bread!

During a waning
moon, add three drops of green food coloring to a bottle of ginger ale. Recap
it securely, put the bottle beneath the lunar beams, and say," ____is not
a part of me, when the moon is dark, I will be freed." Fill in the blank
with the name of the negative habit being banished.
From that night
until the new moon, drink a little of the ginger ale every day, focusing on
your intention to change. Remember that breaking bad habits is not just a
magical endeavor, but also a function of your own will and honest desire.
You must take a
white egg, and through small holes made in each end, blow
forth the
contents from the shell. Plug up one end with a little softened beeswax, then
fill the shell, using a fine funnel,
with sour red wine.
Carefully seal
the second hole with more wax, and in red ink write upon the surface of the
shell the name of that plaguing compulsion you would be rid of. Take this egg
in secret to a place where great rocks cover the ground.
Stand there and
say these words:
"Hall of
blood where life has fled
Walls of bone
that close me round
I break thy
reign, thy yolk I shed
I cast thy
powers to the ground."
Hurl the egg
against a rock so that it shall burst into fragments and the contents be spilt
upon the earth. Then gather up the broken bits of shell, take them home, and
grind them into a powder in a mortar. This charmed dust should be kept within a
small jar, a pinch of it to be placed on the tongue and swallowed whenever
further treacherous temptations may appear.

Crone's Book Of Charms & Spells by Valerie Worth
You can use any
monetary denomination you desire for this spell. For purposes of creating good
credit history I've used ten dollars, but you could use twenty or even a
hundred. You don't have to relegate this spell to financial troubles either.
Those of you who are doing just fine can massage the information and make the
energies work for your own needs.
SUPPLIES: One
ten-dollar bill; a black votive candle; a green candle; your credit cards;
spring water; a pinch of cinquefoil; one nail; one piece of tinfoil.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Cut the wick off the top of the black candle, flip the candle and dig out the
wick (from the bottom end) so you can burn the candle from this opposite end.
(This is called "flipping the candle" and the technique is used to
reverse negative effects.) Heat the end of the nail and melt a small hole in
the new bottom of the black candle. Stuff the candle hole with cinquefoil. Melt
shut. (This is called "loading a candle") Hold the candle tightly in
your hands, and say;
Negativity I
reverse today.
Bad spending
habits go away.
I have food to
eat, clothes to wear, and a place to stay.
I know that I
will be okay.
With harm to
none, so mote it be!
On a Thursday in
the hour of Jupiter, wrap your credit cards once with tin foil, sprinkle with
cinquefoil, then wrap again. Cleanse the ten-dollar bill with the four elements
to remove any negativity from yourself or previous owners. Place the ten-dollar
bill in the center of your magickal working area. Lay
the foil packet over the top. Put the black candle on top of the foil packet.
Say three times;
As this candle
burns, I diminish my credit card debt to a running balance of ten dollars and
ten dollars only.
Then repeat the
verse listed in the instructions portion of this spell. Allow the candle to
burn completely. Keep your credit cards over the ten-dollar bill as long as
possible or until the balance on each card is only ten dollars.

Go to a moving
brook or stream. While standing in the water and facing downstream, remove five
small pebbles from the stream bed As you do this,
visualize your
need for protection.
As your hand
closes over the pebbles, see them beaming out protective
energies. Just
as the pebbles are hard and have weathered for eons, so too
will they
strengthen your protective shield.
Now carry them
at all times for protection. If you wish, place them in a
small pouch or a
fold of cloth, or incorporate them into some form of jewelry.
The
rituals/spells I am posting today come from The Magical Household by
Scott Cunningham and David Harrington.
First, before you move any possessions into your new dwelling, you should do
a purification spell. I'm sure everyone has a spell like this listed somewhere,
but if you need one, say the word and I'll pass a few onto you.
Moving on a Monday is thought to bring you fewer nightmares and increase
psychic awareness.
Moving on a Tuesday bestows sharper perception and intellectual powers to
those in the house.
Moving on a Wednesday raises passions of all kinds.
Moving on a Thursday will allow money to flow in the front door.
Moving on a Friday marks the existence of much love in the new home and a
harmonious atmosphere.
Moving on a Saturday is sometimes thought of as "bad luck". But it's
a good
day to move into an older house or building.
Moving on a Sunday promises that all actions in the new home will prosper,
good luck will flow into the house and the light of reason will shine within
it.
When vacating a house, always leave some money in it (no matter how small
the amount). This will ensure good luck to the next tenants.
Never move a broom from one house to another. It will bring your last
residence's bad luck and dirt to your new home. (This doesn't pertain to
decorative brooms or those reserved solely for magickal
use, only those actually used to sweep floors.) If, for some reason, you must
move an ordinary broom, put it into the new house thru an open window, and the
ill luck will be deterred. *I wish I had done this because my old broom could
have been used to sweep the outside deck. Instead I got rid of it and bought a
new broom.*
If you experience a delay in moving your possessions into your new home, cross
a new mop and broom on its doorstep. Assuming the broom and mop have never
been used, this practice will guard the home until you can move in.
On the day you take up residence in your new home, throw a handful of salt into
the house upon first entering it. Also, open a shutter that faces East (if
there is one), and the home will be guarded against destruction from storms.
Bury 3 shiny new pennies under your front porch. This will ensure wealth to all
those within the house. *We did this one. So far, so good.)
Before moving to your new home, place a bit of dirt from your former property
in
your shoes. Leave it there until you are in the new place, and good times will
be had within it.
To ensure good luck, take a slip, cutting, or bulb from a plant at the old
house
and place it in your new garden. (Moving house plants from the old place to
the new satisfies this custom.)
5 drops of
patchouli oil
3 drops of
frankincense oil
3 parts
sandalwood powder to 2 parts myrrh, and four nails of any size.
Charge the nails
and put the into a small black drawstring
bag. Iron nails
diffuse harm and have been used by witches for such
purposes since
early times. If you could, nail them into the four
corners of a
window or door in your room
Say the
following three times:
Two wicked eyes
have overshadowed meSpell to Protect Yourself From
Attack
Say the following three times:
Two wicked eyes have overshadowed me
But three other eyes overshadowed them
Maiden, Mother, Crone
They watch my flesh, my blood, my bone.

Materials:
~a picture of
the one you wish to protect or their name written on a piece of virgin paper
~a container
large enough to hold the picture
~consecrated
salt
Spell
Write the name
of the person on the picture or paper, add any symbols or words you wish to
personalize your feelings toward the person or add meaning to the spell.
Place the
picture in the container you have chosen.
Pour consecrated
salt around the picture as you say
"Protect
this person from all harm, for he/she is of my heart" Now meditate a
moment and picture them surrounded by white light.
Place the
container with the picture inside on an altar or anywhere it can remain
undisturbed while the person is in need of protection.
When the spell
is no longer needed, remove the picture and sprinkle the salt outside onto the
earth.
Charge a small
stone of Saturn correspondence to carry with you as a charm of protection-
black tourmaline, Apache tears, or snowflake obsidian. Or find any dark colored
stone in the earth that feels solid, stable, and strong to you. Find a quiet
outdoor place and sprinkle a circle of salt on the ground, large enough for you
to sit inside, and hold your chosen stone. Close your eyes; ground and center,
drawing Earth energy within you. Visualize rings of energy swirling around the
Saturn stone you hold, building and increasing yo
surround and emanate from you. Within the rings you are strong, solid, secure,
and shielded from harm. In the future, whenever you feel the need for extra
protection, hold your stone to assist you.

Simms
.....................English Folklore
The legend:
An ancient spell to outwit a bewitching witch is to hold the right thumb in
the left hand while at the same time the left thumb is held by the right
hand. This was done at the moment one felt under attack of malignant
forces.
BEST TIME:
Waning Moon
Situate the
cauldron between 2 black candles, with a third black candle
opposite you on
the far side of the altar. Burn a protection or binding
incense. Have
the names of your enemies written on a small piece of
parchment. If
the names are unknown, merely write all my enemies. Sprinkle
basil and elder
flowers into the cauldron. Say:
Bubble, bubble,
cauldron bubble
Burn the evil,
destroy the trouble.
Ignite the
parchment from the central candle and drop into the cauldron.
Take up the wand
and stir the air above the cauldron while chanting:
Darkness ended,
control is done.
Light has come.
My battle's won.
Take the ashes
and herbs outside. Throw them up to the winds and the Moon.
..................Hindu and Voudoun folklore
The Legend:
The Hindus consider basil a divine herb, and invoke its aid to bring
protection and good fortune by placing small amounts in each room of the
house. Voodooists invoke the help of the Love Goddess Erzulie
in affairs of
the heart by sprinkling small amounts of basil on the food. It may be that
they consider this a means of joining their gros-bon-ange
(meta-physical
soul) with the essense of Ersulie.
When feeling
unsafe, say the guardian angel prayer: "Angel of Life, my guardian dear.
To whom sweet love commits me here. Ever this day be at my side, to light and
guard, to rule and guide."

To get rid of
premenstrual cramps, add three to five drops of ylang
ylang essential oil to a cup of hot water. As you do
so, imagine standing under a waterfall, smelling the fragrant ylang ylang herb. Sip the tea and
continue to imagine yourself under the warm waterfall. As the water streams
over your body, let it wash away the cramps.

(cold, flu,
bronchitis, etc.)
Work this spell
about an hour before you go to bed, since the bath will make
you tired, and
will relax you for a good night's sleep.
You need:
1 blue candle
1 oz. powdered
ginger
5-10 drops
eucalyptus oil (no more than this!)
Run a hot bath
(but not TOO hot, or you'll never sleep!). Add the ginger and
the eucalyptus
oil.
Light the blue
candle and turn out the lights. Enter the bathtub, and soak in
the bathwater.
Feel the waters cleansing you of the toxins in your body.
Visualize the
sickness in you as dirt that your body has absorbed, and is
being pulled out
of your skin. While visualizing, say:
Isis, Goddess
who heals all Release this (cold, flu, etc.) from me Make me
well again.
Chant this as
you feel the toxins leaving your body. When you feel slightly
shaky (this will
happen!), drain the tub and visualize the toxins washing
down the drain.
Rinse your body and your tub with cool water, visualizing all
of the toxins
washing off of your body, and your body becoming free of what
you were sick
with. Bring the candle to your room and immediately go to bed,
keeping the
candle lit for a few minutes as you visualize yourself waking up
feeling much
better.
*Note: If you
need to, put a few drops of eucalyptus oil on a cotton pad and
put it by your
pillow. This helps a lot! *
Before beginning
a healing spell always say:
"Spirit,
please assist in this healing for………… If they are to receive this
healing energy
Then guide my thoughts and words to them If they are not to
receive this
healing energy
Please give the
energy to someone else Who is in need. You know best."
Take a picture,
statue or any symbol of an angel. Cleanse and consecrate it,
then empower it
in the name of healing. Ask the angel of healing, or your
Guardian angel
to help the sick person. Tell them that you are giving this
as a gift to the
sick person and ask for their blessing and healing energy on
that person and
the angel.
(Silver Ravenwolf)
Place both of
your hands on both of your ears and summon all of your energy.
Visualize the
energy(in a color that isn't clear or black) coming out of your
ears and into
your hands. Then, take your hands and rub them counter-clockwise
on your temples
three times while chanting "Maiyor". After
that, place your
hands on your
ankles and summon all of your remaining energy. Once again,
picture the
energy as a color that is not clear or black, flowing out of your
body and into
your hands. While rubbing your ankles three times in a
counter-clockwise
motion chant "Molaris". Then, place your
hands on the hurt
area(usually
good for muscles that ache and are tired) and chant"Sultanar".
As this is a
banishing spell, perform it on a dark or full moon on a
Saturday.
Hold an egg in
your hand. Write on it with a black marker "Banish illness
from......(person's

Rub the egg over
the person's body, envisioning the illness entering the egg
and leaving the
body. (If you can't rub it over the actual person, draw a
stick figure on
a piece of paper and write the person's name on top). Rub
the egg onto
this saying:
.....(person's
name)...... Within, without Up and down
I banish the
illness All around.
When you have
finished, throw the egg in a living body of water, asking the
element of Water
to take the illness away from the person.

The Legend:
The belief that carrying a buckeye would ward off rheumatism and chills was
once quite common in both countries. Another belief indigenous to the
southern
'spelled'. One method was to lay the buckeye between two candleholders
bearing green or white candles. The candles were lit, and an incense
burned. After the candles had gone out, the buckeye was put in a red bag as
a charm...
To perform a
spell to restore lost manhood, you will need two old iron keys, some musk oil,
three crimson red candles, musk, jasmine or vanilla incense, and a handful of
red rose petals. Before making love, anoint each key with three drops of musk
oil and then place them beneath the mattress in the form of an X. Arrange the
candles on the floor- one at each side of the bed and one at the foot of the
bed. Anoint each with three drops of the oil, and then light the candles and
incense to infuse the bedroom with sensual vibrations. Relax, fill your mind
with erotic thoughts, and recite the following incantation: "With keys of
iron, oiled and crossed, be restored my manhood! Fire of virility, storm of
passion- now I raise thee!"
by Gerina Dunwich
To get rid of an
unwanted wart, cover it with a piece of fresh banana peel and tape in place.
Imagine the virus being washed away by running water. Hold this meditation for
five minutes, then leave the taped banana peel in place. Replace the banana
peel twice a day for five days. Do the meditation whenever you think of it. The
area will look blistery when you change the banana peel the first few days;
that means this spell is working.

The purpose of
this spell is to discover who has cast a spell against you (i.e., is causing
you misfortune) or is working against you in some manner. If you feel something
is happening to you due to UN-seen forces, or to anyone you know, then perform
the following:
On a square
Table in your bedroom place three votive candles in votive cups, in a triangle.
In the center of the triangle arrange a sharp knife and three straight pins,
with the blade of the knife pointing North, and the pins pointing to the East,
West, and South.
If you suspect
someone in particular, then write his or her name on one of the candles.
If you feel it
could be any one of several people, then mark the other two candles with those
names also. As you will see, the first candle to burn out will bear the name of
the person involved. If the first candle to burn out does not bear a name, then
the misfortune is not being caused by anyone.
At
Then say the
following:
Hear me O
Great Mother. if the misfortune which I senesces from the ill works of another,
I ask that you speak to me as I sleep this night. I pray that this misfortune
shall be lifted away by you an d that good fortune shall come in it's place. I
f another has cast an ill spell, then I ask that one of these candles be
extinguished; and that you reveal this person to me in my dreams tonight. Then
shall their power be diminished in your name, and pass away with the burning of
these candles.
At this point
you go to bed and allow yourself to sleep. You will awaken at some point to
find one or more of the candles extinguished, and so you will have your answer.
The next day burn away any remaining candles and pour the wax into a hole dug
into the earth. Bury the wax and do not disturb it further. The spell will then
be broken.
To be rid of
diseases, unhealthy habits, hurt feelings and any other disturbing
manifestations of life, hold any stone in your projective hand and visualize
the problem in detail.
Visualize the
part of you that is to be banished as entering the stone. See the problem and
its causes leaving you and infusing the stone.
When you can
send no more energy into it, throw the stone onto a hot fire, throwing with it
the causes and manifestations of your problem.
Stand back, the stone may explode.
If you have no
fire or don't wish to have rocks exploding, throw the stone into the air or
into water, thereby releasing the problem causing energy from your body.
It is done.
When one feels
under psychic assault or if concerned that they are the recipient of adverse magick, one solution is to use reverse magick.
One effective method of implementing this is utilizing candle magick.
A reverse candle
is one that reverses whatever the individual who is attempting to harm may be
doing. If there is a specific individual in mind (an ex-spouse, an ex-lover, an
ex-employer, etc.) then write his/her name on the candle (red on top half,
black on bottom half) using permanent markers or some other indelible method.
Each night for
three nights, burn about a third of the candle. While the candle is burning,
visualize positive outcomes (such as a move to a new location for the other
party, a move to a new location for you, successful mediation of a problem,
etc.) and how the situation can get reversed for the good of you and any other
individuals who may be involved (children, elderly parents, etc.) including the
individual who's name is inscribed on the candle.
When the candle
is burned down to a stub dispose of it immediately by taking it to a body of
fresh water. Once the candle is in the water, turn and walk away. If it is
winter or if you can't get to fresh water then bury it in the earth (NOT near
your home) or dispose of it in a dumpster or some other waste area as far away
from your home as possible. When you return to your home after the disposal,
return by a different route from the one you took to get there.
It is critical
to think positively during the process. Negativity will bog the process down.
Upon your return
home create a positive spell outlining what you want the situation to be -- use
a white candle or one that represents the positive to you. Understand that the
goddess works best when you leave the form of the solution up to her. It is up
to us to determine the essence of the solution. The Lady will provide the
result.
Choose the first
Saturday after a full moon or the full moon itself.
Use one white
candle and one black candle for balance.
Say:
On the eve of
.....
I cast a spell
the effects I
created
I must now quell
Specifically_________
May this spell
be lifted
And I now be
gifted
Specifically
with __________-
If you need to
banish something from your life, prepare a pot of soup. Draw a banishing
pentagram in the soup, then stir nine times counterclockwise, saying:
"Blessed Lord, gracious Lady, hear my plea. Remove (insert what needs remal) from me. For the good of all, with harm to none;
once this is eaten, the spell is done!" Eat the soup. If it is an
interpersonal conflict and you have the other person's permission, share the
soup.

........................Voodoo folklore
The Legend:
When believers in the occult arts burned brimstone in order to drive away
evil forces, one ritual was based on invocation of Voodoo loa
or gods. A
pinch of brimstone was put on a piece of red paper which in turn was placed
on a metal plate or saucer. Each container was placed in a separate corner
of the room. At midnight all of the brimstone was ignited, and each in turn
was named by speaking aloud, " (1) Grand Bois (2) Carrafour
(3) Cemetiere
(4) Damballah In your all-powerful names which I have
invoked with this
offering, I command evil demons and hexs to flee this
dwelling, never to
return,"
Windows were opened during this ritual......Although ostensibly to furnish
an avenue of departure for the malevolent forces, no doubt a practical
necessity had some part in the open window requirement. To have been in a
closed chamber with burning brimstone would have invited great
unpleasantness. This ritual would seem to have combined Voudoun
and
European Witchcraft.
(variation of
the traditional witch's bottle)
This spell can be used to neutralize the power of those who intend to hurt your
reputation, in any way pose a threat to your security, or who want to do you
physical harm.
Tools: black
thread, black ink or black ballpoint pen, parchment paper, 1 bottle with a cork
or mortar and pestle, 1 white candle, 4 tablespoons orris-root
(or oak moss) ,4 tablespoons sea salt, 4 tablespoons black powdered iron
(available at pottery shops where ironstone is made) ,4 tablespoons
frankincense or myrrh.
Mix the sea
salt, orris-root powder, and iron in a bowl. Then cut
a piece of parchment to fit inside your bottle and write on it in black ink:
"I neutralize the power of [name of your adversary] to do me any harm. I
ask that this be correct and for the good of all. So mote it be."
Roll up the parchment, tie it with black thread to bind it, and place it in the
bottle. Fill the bottle with the dry ingredients. Then take the white candle
and, while turning the bottle counterclockwise, drip wax over the cork to seal
it. Last, secretly bury the bottle in a place where it will not be disturbed
and no animal or person will dig it up. It should never be opened or the power
of the spell is lost.
Black candle
Gray candle
Orange candle
Magenta candle
astral candle
(representing yourself, refer to Astrological Color Guide)
Anoint the
candles with a purification oil of blessing oil, such as lotus, and set them in
holders on a safe surface.
Anoint the black
candle from the end to the wick; by this action you are moving bad luck away
from you.
Anoint the other
candles from the wick to the end; this brings in what you desire.
The candles will
be allowed to burn out completely, so be sure that you can leave them safely.
Light the astral
candle representing yourself, and say:
This is me,
everything that represents me.
Light the black
candle, and say:
This is my bad
luck. It now leaves me. I shed no tears over the parting.
Light the gray
candle, and say:
This will
neutralize any remnants of bad luck. They will dissolve into nothingness.
Light the orange
candle, and say:
This represents
the changes for good that are coming into my life. I welcome them with open
arms.
Light the
magenta candle, and say: This is the astral energy that I need to speed up the
change.
Sit for several
minutes, repeating to yourself:
I welcome
change. I welcome the incoming good.
Leave the
candles to burn out completely. Dispose of the wax afterward. You may find that
certain friends will drop away after this ritual. This merely indicates that
the friendship was not to your good. Be prepared to release whatever moves out
of your life.
Small issues can be handled in a magick circle,
whereas larger issues mayeed a full ritual. Think
carefully which is best for the situation. You will need two black candles, a
long black ribbon, black gloves, scissors, the cauldron containing small amount
of alcohol, and a silver bell. Cleanse and consecrate all items. Dress the
candles to send negativity away from you, then light them. Hold each end of the
ribbon and name the ends. Pass the silver bell over the altar several times,
until you feel you are in tune with the Universal energies of love and peace.
Anger is not a luxury afforded to you in the situation. Put on the black gloves
and say:
I call upon the energies of Universal balance
I call upon the ancient energies of my people
I call upon the living essence of the Morrigan
Underworld and heaven
Land and sea
I waken these energies unto me.
Witness now that I renounce and sever
Break bonds and connections with ______
By all powers that are One Power
May the great sisters of karma now weave anew
And separate me from you
As I will, so mote it be!
Cut the ribbon:
It is so.
Light the cauldron. Burn both pieces of ribbon.
Take two black
candles, set them next to each other.
Light them:
Chant:
As I Part these
candles, So shall (name) and I part.
We shall go on
our Journeys with a new start.
Should our paths
cross again,
(name) Shall not
hurt me, My heart will win.
No hold
does(name) have over me.
I am on a new
path,
So Mote it be.
Separate the
Candles by a foot after lighting them.
Let them burn
1/2 way down.
When done and candles
are extinguished, Put in a dark box or sack
And throw them
away.
Go out and start
a new life without (name)
Hope this helps
you.
Best time to
cast this spell: sunset on the eve of a New Moon
You will need:
a yellow candle
a teaspoon of
salt
half a cup of
Olive oil
a chicken
feather ( you should gather feathers in a non harmful manner)
The spell:
gather up your
ingredients and go to a quiet area in your home where you
can be alone.
Light the candle and put the salt into the cup of Olive
oil. Pick up the
feather and repeat these words:
CAuda Draconis (or a deity you choose to work with)
Help me in my
time of need
I want (the
person's name here)
to move away
from me,
In good health
let them be
their possessions
- let them keep
Let wheels begin
to help them move
to move away
from me.
This is my will
- So Mote It BE!
dip the feather
into the olive oil and soon as you are able - wipe the
feather on the
ground in front of your house and near the neighbors
house (make sure
no one sees you!)
My mother taught
me to get rid of unwanted visitors you should place a broom by the front door.
If you can, make a small sweeping motion as place the broom, and if you can do
this without being noticed, so much the better. This will speed such people on
their way and give you some peace of mind.

..........................Le
Dragon Rouge, 1822
(Red Dragon - a grimoire)
Necromancy is
calling up apparitions of the dead for the purpose of
divination and
obtaining knowledge, it was considered one of the Black
Arts....nowadays
the old, complicated systems are gone, but necromancy still
exists with us
today in forms that few would recognize as being related to
past
designation. Spiritualism, planchettes, divination
boards are actually
the counterparts
of the old rituals; less complicated, and much more
pleasant to use
as shall be seen from the spell shown. The Red Dragon,
published in
1822, purported to give detailed instructions for the control
of spirits and
demons. the following spell taken from that book is given in
all its
essential details, but with changes from the archaic spelling and
terminology.
The
Spell.........
the operator
must help at a christmas mass at
raised, he says
softly, "Exurgent mortui
et odme vurient" (the
dead rise and
come to me). at
this point, he was to leave the churchyard, stop at the
first
gravestone, and say; "Infernal Powers, you who carry disturbance into
the universe
leave your somber habitation, and render yourself to the place
beyond the
thee, in the
name of the King of Kings, to let this person appear at that
hour i choose".
Then the
necromancer takes a handful of dirt and casts it about, saying,
"May he who
is dust wake from his sleep. May he step out of his dust and
answer to my
demands which I make in the name of the Father of all men".
Dropping to one
knee, he faces east until sunrise, at which time he gathers
two human bones
and holds them like a cross. Carrying the bones, he leaves
the graveyard,
and throws the two bones into the first church he comes to.
Then, walking
northward exactly fifty nine hundred steps, he lies on the
ground, hands on
legs, eyes turned towards the moon, and summons the dead by
saying,
"Ego sum, te peto et videre quero". The spectre arrives and is
questioned.
After the questioning, it is dismissed by saying, "Return to
the Kingdom of
the chosen. I am happy about your being here". The operator
returns to the
first gravestone he stopped at, and traces a cross on it with
his left hand.
The book ends the spell with the warning that every detail
must be followed
exactly, or harm will befall the operator.

The Legend:
Before a
miniature coffin was sent to an intended victim, it was consecrated
in the trinity
patrons of the Voodoo sorcerors. The trinity was made
up of
Maitre-Carrefour,
Lord of the Crossroads and Demons; Grand Bois, Master of
Night Earth and
Cemeteries. Upon
being consecrated, the coffin became a 'wanga', or magick
charm which was
sent on an expedition. It is one of the most feared of
Voodoo practices
since believers feel it invokes the aid of the dead against
the living. The
words of consecration are as follows:
Zo
wan-we sobadi sobo kalisso

The Legend:
A death spell
was supposed to be cast if a small black coffin was placed on
another's
doorstep. It would usually contain a tiny doll pierced with pins,
and a burnt
piece of black candle would be set at each end. The coffin
would be from
two to three inches long, and could be made from wax, clay,
wood, metal, or
any material capable of being shaped in the required form.
This spell was
indigenous to the southern part of the

the coffin spell used in the

(see above) One of the basic differences between American
and the
Caribbean Voodoo is the latter's supplication to the loa
in most

by spoken invocation or other actions.

The legend: The
wormwood know as artemesia took its name from
Artemis, wife
of Mausalos, and has long been used in rituals to bring forth
spirits of the
dead and friends
of the underworld. In such a ritual the wormwood is
burned like an
incense. Often it was put in a cone of black paper which was
lit at the
bottom. This was done only at night. As the fumes arose, the
name or names of
the deceased were spoken aloud and asked to make known
their presence.
Wormwood was used with many spells of necromancy. It was
also burned by
some during use of a pendulum or planchette. It is an
herb
under the sign
of Mars.
This spell can be used to neutralize the power of those who intend to hurt
your reputation, in any way pose a threat to your security, or who want to
do you physical harm. This is a method that we got from our grandparents,
that really works. Take a clear glass and fill with clean water. Set it on
a dresser in front of a mirror, on top of a Bible. Then take a Lighted
Kerosene lamp and put it between the water and the mirror. Make the glass
of water high enough where the flame can be seen through the water. Sit
with your back to the water, and with a small mirror look over your left
shoulder at the reflection of the glass of water in the hand mirror. Sit
and be still and very quiet for a few minutes and you will start to see
images in the glass in the reflection.
Purpose: For
prophecies to be revealed through dreams, strong impressions or immediate
visions.
Fill a cauldron
or large, black iron pot half-full of fresh water. Add a handful of buttercup
or marigold petals. Light incense of wormwood or burn the herb
thyme. Stir the cauldron/pot gently three
times while chanting:
"Into the threads of time I cast my
thoughts
To catch a glimpse of what will be
O Gods of Asgard,
bring into my mind
The lovely gift of prophecy."
Look deep into the cauldron and you will
receive messages as per the above.
Spend a few
minutes gathering stones. Half should be dark and
half of a
lighter color.
Place them on
the ground before you. Ask your question or keep
it in mind.
Close your eyes
and jumble the stones around for a few seconds;
then, with your
left or receptive hand, remove one of the stones.
If you picked a
dark stone, the answer is yes or the prospects
favorable. If
light, no.

The Legend:
Small amount is put in a red bag and carried in pocket or purse. Said to
bring good luck if replaced every seven days. Used to call spirits by some
psychic people. The herb is made into a boiling tea. The tea is kept
steaming, and the user lies down near it and concentrates on receiving
spiritual messages.
Spells for
generating luck are important, because they cover most the good things we
desire. One way to generate luck is to
compile a "Book of Fortune".
To begin list your blessings in a blank book - striving to come up with
999 things that have been lucky for you.
Even in an uneventful life, there are little serendipitous-things found,
recoveries made. Include emotional riches
such as each relationship you have enjoyed, memories of special occasions, and
help you received from others. Also,
write down your achievements and other good qualities. When you have counted 999 blessings, you can
expect some special stroke of luck.
However, your luck will increase well before that, because with every
sentence you will be affirming the fact that you do have blessings. You can recite lines from this book as part
of rites to strengthen your own spirit of luck.

Tools you will
need are:
Protection
Incense (herbs or oils work fine also)
Blue 8"
Taper Candle
Paper
Pen
Heat resistant
bowl
Prepare your
work area by setting up any tools you may use in addition to your spell candle.
While setting up
your area, Concentrate on the purpose of your work. Envision what it is that
you desire. For this spells' purpose, it is best to have an idea of what you
want, as opposed to general good luck.
Just prior to
your work, bathe in purification herbs, or with your favorite bath salts. While
you are bathing, concentrate again on the purpose of your spell. Do not let
negative thoughts enter your mind!
After bathing,
go to your work area. Cast a circle. Light the protection incense. Envision a
large, light-blue ball of light surrounding you and your work area. Hold the
blue candle between the palms of your hands, close your eyes, and direct all of
your energy into the candle. Open your eyes and place the candle in its holder.
On a small piece
of paper, write down what it is that you want (money, job, etc.). Place this
piece of paper under the candle holder. Prior to lighting the candle, say
(either aloud, or to yourself):
"This candle
represents the good luck that will come to me"
Light the candle
and say (either aloud or to yourself):
"As the
light of this flame grows, I can see good luck around me.
Sit back and
watch the candle burn. Envision what you will look and feel like when your wish
comes to you. See yourself holding with the object you desire, or with the
desired goal you wish to achieve.
When the candle
had burned 1/3 of the way, say
"As the
flame of the candle dissipates with time-good luck will be mine."
Continue to do
your meditation, envisioning the light blue ball of light around you, seeing
yourself how you will be when your good luck arrives.
When the candle
has burned 2/3 of the way, repeat
"As the
flame of this candle dissipates with time-good luck will be mine".
Continue to
meditate as the candle burns.
When the candle
has almost burned away, burn the piece of paper with your written words and
place the ashes into a heat-resistant bowl. Repeat the affirmation
"As the
flame of this candle dissipates with time-good luck will be mine".
Extinguish the
candle by blowing on it and envisioning bad luck also being swept away by your
breath.
After the
candle's leftover wax has cooled-, combine the ashes and wax together and bury
it in the earth as close to your home as possible.
Sometimes the
best Witchcraft path to take when you wish to attract love
and good fortune
is to increase your self-love. This week long spell will
change the way
you view the world, reinvesting it with magick and
beauty.
It is especially
recommend if your energy is down or if you are feeling
cynical and
jaded. This life-refresher is guaranteed to make you feel
wonderful.
Every morning
for seven days awake alone. Upon awakening repeat these words
seven
times.
I allow my
beauty to shine
I respect this
body which my Divine Mother gave me
I will keep my
mind healthy
And my spirit
strong
And know that I
am beloved of her now and always.
Morning 1
Walk to a
sanctuary. there, pray to the Mother. Allow yourself at least two
hours silence in
the early morning. Do not speak: this will allow the
Mother to come
into your thoughts and manifest herself. It will also allow
your Higher Self
to begin communicating with you far more directly. Pray to
the Goddess
before retiring.
Morning 2
Awaken early.
Pray to the Goddess. Remain silent. Take a love bath in
lukewarm water
steeped with rose petals-add essential oil of lemon to
invigorate you
for the day. Bathe for 15 minutes, meditating on the wonders
of being alive.
Examine your body and cleanse it with reverence. Stretch
your limbs and
admire the beauty of your body. Appreciate how it works for
you, the
pleasure it brings you and the myriad of functions it performs. Be
assured: you are
beautiful.
Morning 3
Cast a circle,
and meditate within it for 20 minutes. Call forth your 'wild
woman' (the
spirited, untamed side of your Higher Self, who speaks honestly
from pure
instinct and is a valuable friend). Listen to her and let her
guide you. After
this, write down on parchment her instructions to you, and
begin to act on
them today. Wear rose geranium for self-love and
re-balancing of
hormones. Allow yourself several private moments throughout
the day to
meditate on the message of the morning.
Morning 4
Time to get
physical! Put on some invigorating wild and frenzied music and
shake, dance and
leap around to it, allowing energy to move through your
body and loosen
up your chakras (energy channels). Let your wild woman
dance for
you-get completely loose and wild; yell, scream or whoop if those
feelings come
up. Experience the joy of being a physical person, and as you
slowly calm down
focus on your breathing. On the in breath repeat:
I am beloved of
the Mother
All that is mine
shall come to me.
Repeat this
affirmation until you feel ready to take on the day.
Morning 5
Plant
something-a tree, a shrub or herb-to symbolizes the growth of your new
self, and the
success of your new endeavors. (This should encourage you to
take care of
your plants!)Plant this living symbol barehanded-don't wear
gloves. Get your
hands deep in the dirt-go all the way and get your feet
into the dirt,
too. Getting your hands dirty and planting your feet right
into the ground
will remind you that you are of the Earth and that the
Earth is your
Mother. Remember this as you go through your day. This is an
extremely
valuable exercise for people who tend to work and live in their
heads. Uni.
students take note!
Morning 6
Today you will
rise early enough to watch the Sun rise. Think of all the
wonderful things
which are coming to you. Use path working to add power to
this ritual.
After glorying in the birth of the day, pick some flowers
(from the wild,
or a park or garden). Keep these with you on your desk or
at home
throughout the day, and remind yourself of the miracle of the
sunrise, and of
the magick you too can work through your lifetime.
This
evening, take
yourself to the same place and witness the sun leaving the
sky. Again do
your affirmations and path working. This is very simple as it
reconnects you
with nature and your dreams in a very powerful way. Be
prepared for
change!
Morning 7
Perform a wish
spell with special significance for you. Stay in bed all day
if you wish, and
if possible take a mental health break from work in order
to focus on your
inner self. In our culture, being 'selfish' is heavily
criticized,
especially in women-but time spent contemplating your own
nature in an
honest and wise manner is never a waste of time. Spend this
day doing this,
and celebrating your power and refreshed energy. Drink one
glass of red
wine steeped with cloves as the evening star comes out. Toast
to your new
beginnings.
This may seem
very long and maybe not worth the effort, but in order to
achieve true
self-love and appreciation of yourself you need to spend more
than one night
spell casting to do it. Some things take time, but the
rewards for your
effort and perseverance are well worth it.
To help you gain
self confidence in all areas of your life. Stand before
your magick mirror or bathroom mirror if you have no magick mirror. look at
your self in the
mirror. What do see? Do you see yourself self assured?,
successful?,
talented?, worthy of love and friendship?, prosperous? If you
say no to any of
these, why. Look honestly at why you feel that is so. Is
it realistic,
are your negative feelings about yourself based in reality?
what can you do
to change those feelings about yourself? When you have
finished your
self analysis. Light a red candle (if using the bathroom
mirror you can
place the candle on the basin, if the magick mirror
hold the
candle in your
hand; preferably have the candle in a candle holder) and
concentrate on
the flame for about thirty seconds or so before looking into
your eyes. Tell
yourself something along these
lines:
"I am
beautiful and special. I love you. I'm perfect and I can do anything
I want to.
Next go to your
altar and burn an incense of three parts wood aloe, two
parts
frankincense and
one part nutmeg. Light a blue candle for inner peace and
harmony, and a
white candle for outer peace, and balance. On a piece of
parchment paper,
write down all the things in life you want to achieve.
Read over it and
affirm in your mind that can achieve these goals, and will
achieve them,
visualize them having already happened. As you visualize each
goal coming to
fruition tick off the goal, like you do with a list of
things to do.
Then fold the paper in two, and set it on fire, one half from
the blue candle
the other from the white. Toss the paper into a fire proof
container or
cauldron then concentrating on the two candles, say these or
similar words:
Mother Goddess
and Father God (You may use your patron deities if you wish)
You have created
me out of love, a perfect being, a reflection of your
love, your
wisdom, strength, and virility. You have infused within me, your
spark. Your
divine presence. You have filled me with the potential to do
great things,
the ability to achieve whatever I will to do in life.
I call forth
this potential, my inner strength, my inner wisdom, my inner
beauty, my inner
confidence, my inner self-assurance to manifest itself in
my life to
create a harmonious balance with my outer self. I call upon my
inner resources,
to manifest into my life, to create for me a state of
self-confidence
and successful assurance within myself.
May it be
reflected in my everyday workings, through confidence to speak
openly, through
tactile thinking, through knowing the right action to take
at the right
time.
I banish from
myself shyness, introversion, and awkwardness.
From this time
on, I will always know the right words to speak, the right
actions to take,
the ability to converse freely with no inhibition.
Through your
power Goddess and God, which is manifest in me, I will it to
be so for the
good of all and the harm of none, So mote it be!
Let the candles
and incense burn themselves out. This spell is best
followed by
working with your chakras, removing any blockages
from them
that you might
find.
Incense blend
Frankincense, benzoin, dragons blood, mace, orange
peel, rose
petals
Preferably
choose a time just before Full Moon. Form your magic circle and be
very still.
Imagine warmth within you, gathering behind your navel and
gradually
spreading outwards so the whole of your body feels warm and glowing.
Light a golden
yellow candle and say:
'May my inner
confidence glow like this candle flame.
May it be an
ever-burning flame inside me
May it glow like
the Moon and, having reached fullness,
remain constant
as the Northern Star.
As this candle
burns and is transformed, so my
inner confidence
becomes complete.
So shall it be.'
When you are
ready, close down your ritual and your psychic centers consciously and thoroughly.
You may put the candle somewhere safe to burn out
or relight it
each day until it is finished.
To purify a
sacred space, during the sixth hour
after sunrise or the first or eighth hour after sunset consecrate an aromatherapy bowl or small
cooking pot by passing it through the
smoke of frankincense and sprinkling it
with blessed water, saying:
" I
consecrate this container to aid in my Craft, that the spell I now weave will take hold and
last." Heat spring water in the bowl over a tea light or in the pot on a
burner. When the water is hot, add the
following herbs, speaking after each-star anise: " Let all
negativity be deflected from this place"; one bay leaf: " as the sent
of this leaf moves through this place may purification enter into space";
one teaspoon sage: "Though sage I
now make this spell manifest, that with peace and protection this space will be
blessed. For as I will, so mote it be!"

To create an
altar for use in cleansing ceremonies, first cover a small table with a white
cloth, preferably linen. Arrange on the cloth one freshly cleansed amethyst
crystal, a thriving fern plant, a smudge stick in a small bowl of salt, a crystal
candle holder with a white or lavender candle, and a bowl of dried lavender,
rosemary, chamomile, and dill. Light the smudge stick and blow the incense
around the altar, saying: "Spirits of protection, healing, and cleansing,
bless the objects on this altar- that I might use them to aid in cleansing and
purifying during my magical work. Blessed be." Whenever you have need,
come to the altar and work your cleansing, purifying, and healing magic here.
You may place pictures on the amethyst and ask that the person or object in the
photograph be cleansed as well.

No time to cast
a circle and perform a long purification ritual? No problem! Into a large
enamel saucepan, add: two minced large onions, five minced cloves of garlic,
two tablespoons dried rosemary, two sliced lemons, and two tablespoons of
crushed black peppercorns. Cover with three quarts of water and bring to a
rolling boil.
Let the steam permeate the house, carry the pan carefully through the house
into each room so that the steam can filter into every nook and cranny. When
this is finished, open the windows and let the wind blow through to take away
the last remnants of day-to-day tension and stress.

The incantation
below is a purification spell that you can use as part of a larger working, or
alone when swimming, walking in the rain, boating, and so on. It can also be
used in preparing for the birth of a baby, or during the birthing process. If
necessary, use
the incantation as a drought-buster. Begin by saying: "Water protects the
embryo, ancestor love of long ago. Tides and rivers dance and flow, enchant
this place, let magic grow. Revive!
Bring change! I make it so." For added water energy in magic, carve the
zodiac symbols of Cancer, Pisces, and Scorpio on the candle color of your
choice, and stand the candle in one half inch of water as it burns.

This spell with
refresh and cleanse you. To begin, cast
a circle in your bathroom. Call the
elements and light a lavender-colored candle.
Then blend in a muslin bag a teaspoon each of lavender flowers,
chamomile flowers, and dried crushed rosemary.
Hang the sachet under the faucet, and draw your bath water, allowing it
to pour down through the herbs. Add a
half cup of lemon juice to the bath.
When you settle into the tub, lean back, relax, and take three deep
breaths. Close your eyes and focus on
the excess tension and stress in your body.
Feel the herbs and lemon draw it out of your muscles and mind. Thoroughly clean your tube when you are done
to remove any residue or negative energy from the bath water.

Every day when
you turn on your computer, take the time to be aware of all the technology that
makes your modern-day life possible- telephones, refrigerator, electric lights,
indoor plumbing and central heating. Say a blessing to the inventors, creators,
and builders that make your life possible. Thank your computer as the
representative of all the technology in your life. You'll find that you have
fewer problems when you regularly make this blessing.

To make a charm
to protect you as you drive, place the following items in a small box: three
holly leaves, one clove of garlic, one sprig of cedar, one piece of clear
quartz, and one piece of dragon's blood resin. Hold the box shut, and imagine
you are driving your car. Envision yourself working in a clear, keen, and
observant state. You make decisions as necessary when you are behind the wheel;
you react with split-second timing, and you generally find joy in your role as
a safe driver. Put the box in the glove compartment of your car and follow
through by always driving in a safe and responsible manner.

Just before you
leave for a shopping trip or other short visit, call forth in
your imagination
a small familiar spirit or gremlin atop the hood of your
car. Tell the creature "Hi" in your
mind. Call your little friend by a
name of your
choosing, and ask to have it locate and hold a good parking spot
for you at your
destination. Finish with "now
go!" As soon as you get to
your destination
and park in the space that has been held for you, be sure to
call your friend
forth onto your hood again, breathe five breaths of life
force into your
body, and direct it out to "bathe" your little friend in a
shower of life
energy. Ed Fitch
If you are
traveling by car and low on fuel, but far from the nearest gas
station, here is
a spell that may help. First,
relax. Even if you did run
out of gas, it
would not be a disaster, because a friendly motorist would
help you. Second, remind yourself that you won't run
out of gas, because
there is a
reserve in the tank even when it reads "empty" and because this
magic spell is
protecting your. Third, center yourself
and enter an alert
state of
mind. Fourth, take a deep breath. As you exhale, imagine your
breath flowing
under the car and lifting it just a bit so the engine works
more
easily. Fifth, focus on your
driving. Notice how effortlessly the car
moves, floating
over the road. When you look at the
gauge, you will notice
the care has
used almost no gas in the last several miles.

This spell
originates from the folk belief that looking through the hole of a sacred
object can allow the viewer to see into the world of fairies and other spirits.
In
To find a stone
with a hole through it is a powerful talisman, sacred to the goddess Diana.l There are several versions of this spell and so I
will share two of them here.
A.) To seek for
a Holy Stone, arise at dawn and go out upon a road towards a meadow or into the
hills. Take with you a red wool pouch and gather some herbs of Rue and Vervain. If, in you search for the herbs, you should come
upon a stone with a hole through it, then pick it up and say:
I have found a
Holly Stone upon the ground.
O Destiny, I
thank you for the joyful find.
and also the
spirit upon this road
who has given it
to me.
May it prove to
be for my true
and good
fortune.
Now it is time
to ask the spirit to enter the stone so that it will be an object of
power. To do this, toss the stone up and
catch it three time in succession, place it in your pocket, and say the
following:
Good spirit of
omens
who has come to
my aid
believing I had
need of you,
spirit of the
red Fairy
since you have
come to aid me in
my need,
I pray that you
will not abandon me!
I beg you now to
enter this sphere
that I carry in
my pocket,
and when I have
need of anything
that I call upon
you, what ever need it may be,
and neither by
night or day
will you ever
abandon me.
After this,
place the stone and the herbs in the wool pouch, give thanks to Diana,and return home.
B.) If you find
a stone with a hole in it, on a beach or in the sea, it is a powerful talisman
for seeing into the spirit world. The
stone is considered in the manner of the first spell. Once properly prepared, take the stone with
you to a cemetery and stand just before the burial grounds. Hold the stone up
to your left eye and look through the hole, while keeping the right eye closed.
Then say the following:
In Nome di San Piietro,
E di San Biagio,
Fate che da questa
pietra
possa vedere che forma
Fanno gli spiriti.
De profundia clamao
In te Domine, Domine!
Et Domine, et fiantatis,
Bugsein
et
Egdognis
Domine!
Folk belief has
it that you will see the spirits of the departed. You may also see the Crone
aspect of the goddess walking with a lighted torch.
This is best performed during the Waxing phase of the Moon. On a piece of
white paper, in Dove's Blood ink, draw a picture of the home you want, and
visualize it in detail. Place it on your alter under a brown candle anointed
with Rosa Ava oil. Use white alter candles, a single
rose centerpiece, and
Spirit Help incense. Go to your alter after sundown. Light white candles as
usual, and light the brown candle, saying:
This is my home, my earth, my cave, my castle.
Demeter, help to make it better.
Demeter, bring me home!
Bring me home!
Bring me home!!
So mote it be!!
Do this spell three nights, and actively look for a place during the spell
period. Dispose of the spell as usual.

......southern
voodoo folklore
this ritual is
an example of reverse symbolism which abounds in folklore.
in one legend an
herb, or stone, or whatever, brings only good fortune. in
other legends,
the same items cause disaster. this spell contradicts the
common
superstition regarding black cats who usually are held in ill repute.
the effect of
this ritual was meant to be that the conjurer would control
the forces that
legend normally attributes to the stygian beast and reverse
them; good for
bad. this could be a blending of ancient egyptian
respect
for the cat and
southern folkfore.
.................the
ritual
the cat candle
was annointed with success oil, a perfumed oil of
alleged
voodoo concoction.
it was burned seven minutes the first night and eleven
minutes the
second night. this sequence kept on with seven minutes the
third night and
eleven minutes the fourth, and so on until the operator
decided enough
good luck had been gained.....
note........in
voodoo folklore seven is a lucky number for conjuring, but
nine is
considered better. they total eighteen, double the nine. thus we
can see the
reasoning behind this spell, 'seven come eleven', the old
gambler call;
something twice as good should always work better.
4 thieves
vinegar spell..........marie laveau
the legend:
marie laveau, a voodoo
queen of old
thieves vinegar in a number of ways she claimed would drive enemies away;
to a gallon of
strong cider vinegar add a handful of the following:
rosemary, wormwood, lavender, rue, sage, and mint. add 1 oz of powdered
camphor gum. tightly close the container with the cider vinegar and herbs
in it. place this container in a pan of water and heat until the water
begins to boil.. always shake this mixture before heating. heat daily for
4 days. strain the herbs from the liquid, bottle and keep tightly
closed.....
(1) smearing the liquid on the enemy's doorknob where it would be sure to be
touched,
(2) putting a small amount of it in a bottle together with the enemy's name
written on parchment paper, and throwing the sealed bottle into the moving
water of a stream or river. as it floated away, it allegedly drew the enemy
with it in the sense that he or she would want to move from their immediate
abode.
.........................Voodoo
folklore
The legend:
an old voodoo
custom and belief was to rub a green candle with High John
oil, and burn it
completely. this ritual was repeated for seven nights, and
it was thought
to bring the supplicant money, love, and health. the
spellcasting was always started on a sunday.
.......................Voodoo
folklore
The legend:
the purpose was
the same reasons that High John the Conqueror oil was used.
however, the
method was entirely different. a green candle was lit, and a
small amount of
the powder sprinkled in the flame. next an equal amount was
dropped into a
pot of boiling water. the hands were passed through the
smoke of the
candle, and through the steam arising from the pot. this was
done each day
until satisfaction was felt.
.....................Japanese folklore
The Legend:
The famous Buddhist priest Dharma of the sixth century, sat in meditation
for many years on the side of a lonely, uninhabited mountain. Eventually
this austerity caused him to lose his legs. He was famous as a very wise
and gentle man, and many felt to be in his presence was to be blessed.
During the centuries as he became more revered as a symbol of good luck,
statues of him were refined to show only the venerable head. These round
charms became known as Darumas. It was believed a
stack or column of these
heads represented a means of controlling the misfortune that might affect a
person's life. A Daruma stack would have eight
graduated, colorful heads.
The upper seven heads stand for the seven days of the week. To avert
misfortune, each day one head was turned halfway in the morning, and halfway
at dusk so that it had regained its postition. Only
one head per day was
moved..........
Light candle of any color, preferably yellow, green, or blue. Get out a
piece of paper. As you're gazing into the candle, chant:
"Oh Goddess and God of old,
Help me to write on this paper bold,
For only me to see
Help this paper remind me!
So mote it be!"
Draw a pentagram on the paper like you usually would, starting at the top.
On the very top point draw the rune of Jera. The top
right draw the rune of
Ansuz. Bottom right draw rune of Mannaz.
Bottom left draw rune of Hagall.
Top left draw rune of
fold five times. Snuff out the candle and than the goddess. Keep the paper
in contact with your skin at all times.
Materials For Spell:
* Cast -off whiskers
*Statures or pictures of Bast and
*A Stamp or picture of a cat's paw print
*Incense: lotus, jasmine, or frankincense
* A cat's eye stone; this can be set jewelry if you
want to wear it afterwards.
*two white candles
Timing :
Light of the moon or Full moon if you are trying to understand Upper world
Powers
Dark of the moon or new moon if you are struggling to understand the mysterious
Underworld Powers.
Spiritual growth isn't a one-time "I've got it" proposition. Ideally,
it is a continuous, upward spiral of knowledge-seeking which never ends.
Sometimes a metaphorical light will come on, and we will understand a single
spiritual point with great clarity. Most of the time, however we have to plod
along, step by step, sweating for everything that we learn. What we learn
through patience and perseverance usually lasts the longest. Here's a cat spell
that will help:
Set up an altar or sacred space, arranging one candle on each side and
one to the rear of your working area. Place the statures of Bast
and
I seek guidance on my spiritual path.
I Am led to the truth by the track of a cat.
By the eye of the cat i see through spiritual
darkness into the light
where all things are made clear.
By the whiskers of the cat I Am guided the right way.
By the whiskers of the cat I AM guided the right way.
The ladies of Wisdom speak to my heart and soul. Their words enter my dreams,
guiding and instructing me.
I seek truth and light !
Sit quietly for a few moments while you think over the spiritual ideas you want
clarified or the difficulties you have in deciding upon a spiritual path to
take. When you are finished put out the candles. The candles, whiskers and paw
print can be reused whenever you wish to repeat the spell.
The Cat's eye stone can be carried or worn in jewelry as a reminder that you
are being guided with wisdom and clarity. Answers often come in unexpected
ways: dreams, talking with others, or reading a book. Be open and aware.
Ingredients:
Small, clean, jar such as a baby food
jar
Honey. Enough to fill the small jar
Paper. A small strip that will fit in
the jar
Pen. To write the person(s) name on
small strip of paper
Candle. To drip on jar lid for sealing
All products connected with bees have
magical powers (bees-wax, honey,
pollen, royal jelly, propolis).
It is believed that any bee product can hold
and deliver a magical message or prayer.
Best to do this on a full moon but can
be done during the waxing. Write the
name of the person or just men/women,
people in general on the strip of
paper. Place the paper inside the small
jar. Now fill the jar with the honey.
While you do this concentrate on your
intent. Visualize the person or persons
being kind to you the way you would like
them to be. Now close the jar with
the lid and seal it with wax. Place the
jar on your altar or somewhere where
it will be untouched. Every month
re-charge the jar by placing it in the sun
for a day. You'll want to bury the jar
and refresh the spell with a new jar
about every 6 months or so.
I suffer from
extreme stress and tension. This spell helps me to calm down after I've come
home from work....especially useful when things have been stressful at work for
awhile (reports due,etc) and a quick end is not in
sight.
Waxing moon---to bring peace and tranquility ----
or
Waning moon-- to send away stress and discomfort
Colour--a long taper--light blue works best for me,
however any pale color would do...it's your preference.
Day of the Week---can be started any day...but Monday is best for protecting
children (the child within)
Cut 7 notches into the candle. Dress the candle with your favorite oil ( I use
Olive oil for just about everything). Stroke the candle from ends to middle
(waxing moon) or from middle to ends (waning moon). Set the candle in a fire
proof holder.
Day 1--light your candle and say the following word (visualizing peace and
serenity surrounding you)
"Blessed Goddess...hear my prayer for peace and calm,
My candle dressed with soothing balm.
I light this candle on day one...now I know this spell's begun."
Keep the candle lit (and in your view) and visualize calmness and serenity
coming from the candle flame--filling the air around you. I also light incense
(lavender) to enhance the mood. Snuff out the candle when it reaches the first
notch and thank the Goddess for being with you. (Don't blow out the candle--use
a candle snuffer)
On the following days...repeat the process....
Day 2-- " Blessed Goddesss..hear my prayer for
peace and calm,
My candle dressed with soothing balm.
I light this candle on day two ....now I know that calmness comes
through."
Day 3-- "Blessed Goddess...hear my prayer for peace and calm
My candle dressed with soothing balm.
I light this candle on day three...now I know calmness comes to me."
Day 4--(repeat first two lines)
"I light this candle on day four...now I know more calmness is in
store"
Day 5--(repeat first two lines)
"I light this candle on day five...now I know my calmness is alive"
Day 6--(repeat first two lines)
"I light this candle on day six...now I know my calmness is fixed"
Day 7--(repeat first two lines)
"I light this candle on day seven...now I know my calmness is given.
For everyday after this candle is gone...I know that my calmness lives on and
on.
So mote it be"
Let the candle burn itself out and thank the Goddess.
Repeat whenever you feel the need.
(Matthew Green)
The following spell is method of tapping into the stream of universal peace
energy and making your own little piece of the world brighter by nullifying
negative energy. You will need the following items:
a white candle (peace)
a white feather (peace)
a green leaf (environment)
a blue bead or marble (the world)
a small jar of spring water sweetened with sugar
Light the candle, extinguish any artificial illumination and arrange all items
before you. Sit for a moment and still the mind. Focus on the candle flame and
recall the images that represent war, see in your mind_s
eye the steady destruction of the natural world. Close your eyes and breathe
deeply to rid yourself of these images. See how a chain of fearful acts can quickly
degenerate into violence. Refuse to participate in this cycle of anger and fear
as it may stop with you if you are willing to earth the energy by breathing it
out. Hold the marble or bead in your hand and feel the fragility of the earth
in the hands of humanity, feel the destructive potential of greed and fear.
Blow a cool stream of breath upon the bead or marble. Take up the white feather
and dip it into the water. Using the feather as a paintbrush bathe the marble
or bead; take up the leaf and do the same. Place the bead or marble into the
jar of water and visualize the world spinning slowly in a bank of beautiful
billowing clouds. Place the jar in a cool quiet part of the home where it will
not be disturbed. Put the feather beneath your bed and allow the candle to burn
out by itself. Here the spell ends but the true work begins. In your daily life
practice the art of releasing and ending a cycle of fear and malice and also do
your own small part toward the end of environmental destruction.
Light alter
candles.
Light Incense.
Think hard on
the subject about which you wish to learn the truth.
Light
petitioners candle.. a candle representing yourself. (Can be any color you feel
represents yourself.) and say,
"This
candle I light to represent myself. It burns as does the spirit. It is as
myself in all things.
Light 2 white
candles and say, " These are the symbols for truth. They are enjoined
about (your name) and to me show all truth. Then say:
"As I rock
in the night 'cross the brown heath bare,
In the bright
moons light saw a castle fair;
Lords and
ladies, great and small,
Where crowding
in, 'twas a festival,
Grasses in the
wind are waving.
They bade me
welcome and I went
To drink their
wine to my heart's content.
I danced and
laughed with the ladies fair.
Ne'er in my life
had I such cheer;
Grasses in the
wind are waving.
Then all at once
there came a cry:
Haro by yaro! Asleep fell I,
While a lady
dancing at my side
Seemed like a
lizard away to glide;
Grasses in the
wind are waving.
I woke in the
early light of day,
In an olden ruin
I did lay,
O'er the rock
and into the sun
I saw a
green-gold lizard run!
Grasses in the
wind are waving.
Now the truth I
know and it stays with me,
For I have seen
what I did see,
All secret
knowledge came to mind,
Borne on
laughter of the other kind;
Grasses in the
wind are waving."
Sit then in
quiet contemplation for half an hour. In this time will the truth of the
subject in question come to you. Extinguish candles

Juno can be a
powerful ally to women in government and public service jobs. This spell can be
used to help your elected representatives, or to elect more women to public
offices, and to strengthen women's influence in public life. Wear cypress oil,
your best business attire, and moonstone or silver jewelry. Close your eyes;
ground and center, and envision your elected representative in a royal purple
or electric blue suit. See her succeeding, whether it's at speaking before
Congress or the library board. Now transform her into Juno, a regal matron in a
Roman toga with purple sash. She blesses the audience with a silver wand, and
fills the scene with cool moonfire, the fire of
reason and compassion. Repeat for each woman you wish to help. Thank Juno and
relax. Repeat monthly to bolster women's public roles.

This is an
all-purpose spell for charging your magic crystals and stones that you use in
ritual or simply keep in your house because they have attracted you. Just
before a Full Moon, cleanse them all with salt water, then place on a
windowsill where the light of the Full Moon can bathe them. A night or two
after the Full Moon, place the crystals and stones in a circle on the floor as
you cast a circle. Sit in the center of the circle and let the energy of the
crystals and stones come into you. Softly chant: "

Sunday is a day
for extending blessings, as the sun's rays bless the Earth on this day.
Spreading blessings was also one of the customs of the legendary fey, and it is
something that you can do to extend your power outward. As an ongoing blessing
spell, cut small bird shapes out of construction paper in your idle moments,
and thread string through them so they can be hung. Write a cheerful word of
blessing such as "hope", "love", or "luck" on
each bird. If you wish, embellish each one by drawing details or gluing glitter
on them. Then, whenever you go out- whether to walk in a park, visit a friend's
house, shop at the mall, and so on- surreptitiously hang a string of birds in
bushes or other secretive places. Know that your birds are acting as agents of
your power, blessing any person who comes across them.

If you have been
having trouble communication with someone, set out a blue cloth or paper with a
spiral drawn on it. Hold a large piece of blue tiger's eye in your hands,
thinking of clearing away all the communication difficulties. Then coax your
playful cat to come over and visit. Roll the stone on the cloth, bat it back
and forth with the cat, playing until the cat gets tired and walks away. Leave
the stone on your altar most of the time, but keep it with you when you
interact with the person. Once the situation is resolved, cleanse the stone and
put it away.

basket or tray and enchant it by saying: "Ground and heal, magnetic one;
bring me clarity on this day." Add a quartz crystal to the contained and

Add a calcite and say: "Stone of joy and yellow light, help me sort
through my work today." Place the container of stones on your desk and
say: "Help me work through this day; bring me inspiration. And when the day
is done, may the labor be finished."

Stones with a
naturally occurring hole in them are considered good luck by many people. If
you are so lucky as to find one, wear it around your neck by a cord through the
hole. Silk or cotton cord is best; do not use a metal chain. Don't wrap wire
around them or otherwise tamper with them. Looking through the hole is said to
give on the power of second sight and the ability to see the invisible world of

To increase your
overall strength, at the New moon in spring cut off a young oak twig, being
sure to ask permission of the dryad beforehand. If refused, oak bark is
available from many herbalist and is a respectable substitute. Strip the twig
of its shiny bark, and place this or the store bought dried bark in a saucepan
of water. Boil until thoroughly infused. As you work, consider oaken qualities:
fertility, sturdiness, durability, deep rootedness.
Know that in this brew, these properties are concentrated. If you are in full
health and not pregnant, for optimum effect, take the potion as tea. If
frail or
preferred, add to your bath. In both cases the important factor is to feel the
properties of oak entering and fortifying your system. Entreat the spirit of
the sacred tree to protect you. Using a ribbon and the leftover leaves, create
a bouquet of thanks to the most ancient of benefactors.

Goals
General Uses: Manifestation and aspirations. Bringing dreams into reality.
Realistic targets.
Timing: Waxing to full moons. Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday. When the moon is
in Taurus, Leo, or Sagittarius. March and April.
Props/focals: A bull's-eye, dartboard, or other
target. Arrows. Any items
like step stools and ladders that allow you to stretch or reach thing normally
unobtainable. The number 4. The colors red, orange and brown. Daisy,
clover, cinnamon, and ginger. The image of an ant (for tenacity). Agate,
beryl, and jade. Southerly winds for
active energy.
Secondary Listings: Choices, Dedication, Energy, Judgement,
New Endeavors,
Organization, Tenacity, Victory.
Spell: Step one is to get a piece of construction paper and mark
it
with a representation of your goal. Place this securely on a wall within your
sacred space. Next, obtain some cellophane tape, a blindfold, four strips of
red or orange paper, a glue stick, and a little powdered ginger.
Stroke one side of each paper strip with the glue stick and fasten a circle of
tape to the other side.
Sprinkle the gluey portion of the paper with ginger while saying:
"Success I
claim, today I shine, soon ________(insert goal) will be mine." Next focus
all your energy towards the paper. Continue to repeat the power phrase. Visualize the attainment of your goal. Then
close your eyes and don the blindfold. Hold fast to your visualization, and
take the strips of paper in hand. Concentrate on your intentions before placing
the strips on the arced construction paper on your wall. It's just like "Pin
the Tail on the Donkey," only with a magical purpose.
Now remove your blindfold and see how close you came. If your marks are way
off, repeat the spell every few days until you hit a bull's-eye. Afterwards,
fold the target in quarters (once for each element) with the tail attached and
then burn, it, the entire thing, thereby releasing your hopes to the
winds. The heated ginger provides added
energy for manifestation.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This charm helps in obtaining goals. Gather together a red cloth, a piece of
agate, for cloverleaves, for small pinches of cinnamon, and any item that
represents success. By the light of a waxing to full moon, empower this by
saying four times, "bit of cloth, by string wound, let my magic be
unbound. Leaf and herb within combine, soon attainment will be mine."
Carry it until you accomplish your objective,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Step one is setting a reasonable time to obtain your goal. Divide this figure by four and round off. For example, if
you need something accomplished within two months, this equals sixty days or
four fifteen-day intervals. Keep the results in mind for this spell. If time is
wanting, you may shorten this spell by using shorted intervals (hours or
minutes).
Next, place an item signifying your aspiration in a tree, high on a wall, or in
any other inconvenient location. Go to this place four times; at intervals
based on the limit set in step one. At each visit, slowly loosen whatever
bindings you have on that goal.
Each time you climb towards the emblem use a verbal component to empower your
actions-for example, "Higher still and higher, my magic shall not tie. The
first try, my goal I see. My second try, my will is free. My third try, aim
is gained. My fourth try, the goal's obtained." On the fourth visit,
loosen the object just enough so the wind will naturally finish the job,
carrying the magic toward its intended target.
Whispering Wind
Spell
This is a spell
to assist if someone is bothering you or if you have a strong, unfulfilled
desire. To begin, make sure there is a slight breeze blowing. Light a yellow

hear and respond. Let the wind carry your words to the east. Burn the candle down whenever you are home
until it is burned out. An answer should come to you within one Moon cycle.

Tree Talking
For this spell,
go barefoot into a forest with a container of water. Find a tree that seems,
for some reason, to have a particular strength to it- perhaps from age or
character. Greet the tree, and pouring the water about its base, state your
wish to talk with it. Find what seems to you to be the proper location around
the tree, plant your feet firmly, hold the tree as you press yourself against
it. Dig your toes strongly into the ground, imagining that you are sending
forth your own roots into the earth. Close your eyes and press your forehead
against the tree. "Speak" to the tree in images and feelings, and
leave your mind open to feel what the tree is feeling. Feel the life-force as
it flows within the trunk of your tree-friend, and understand the tree's
outlook on existence. Take your time. Experience, and enjoy yourself.

darkened your doorway!

New Moon on the
Solstice Spell
In parts of
Egypt, before the building of the Aswan dam, the
solsice
marked the beginning of the nile flooding which
brought
abundance to the
nile valley. To tap into this magic, take twelve
coins from your
pocket, one for each month of the year, and at a
table pile them
as far away from you as possible. One by one,
move three of
the coins toward you and let them fall into your
lap, saying:
"The flood begins." Move another three to you, saying:
"The water
is rising." Move the third set of three to you,
saying:
"The flood is adequate this year." Finally, move the last
three coins to
you, announcing with conviction: "This year is
abundant; all
will thrive with this year's flood!" Keep the twelve
coins in a small
bowl until next solstice. Draw one out each month
so that you
always know you have money coming to you.

Runic Naming
Spell
Many people like
to give names to important objects such as
their cars, and
their computers. Sometimes the right name just pops
into your mind,
but other times you need a little help. This
spell uses rune
dice to suggest a secret magical name and a public
everyday name
for a new object. Begin by placing a piece of
cloth on or near
the object you wish to name. Select one of the rune
dice at random
and toss it onto the cloth. The facedown symbol
indicates the
secret name and nature of your object, while the
faceup
symbol indicates the public ones. Look up the associations
in a rune book
and meditate on the meaning of these runes; then
use red ink or
paint to mark the runes on the object to be
named.

elbows, stomach, knees, and ankles. Alternatively, you
may shower and
then take a hot soaking bath in a lavender tea.
To make the tea,
boil a quart of water. Remove from heat and add
a half cup
lavender flowers. Steep for five minutes then strain.
Pour the
lavender tea into a tub filled with hot water and
enjoy.

Energy and
Resolve Spell
Some of us, upon
returning home from work, school, travel, or some other tiresome activities,
have an immediate urge to collapse into a chair and watch TV and vegetate.
Unfortunately, this means that we avoid other more important activities, such
as our house work and chores. To train your energy after a long day, keep in
your glove compartment a necklace or pouch of stones such as
jasper, tiger's
eye, carnelian, or other objects that promote energy and efficiency. Before
starting the drive home, handle the stones and visualize yourself arriving home
and spending ten minutes tidying something (in one seamless motion) before you
relax. Recall this visualization as you drive. If you are able to stick to this
discipline, you can gradually increase the amount of time you spend cleaning.

A Spell to
Reduce Defensiveness in Communications
If you encounter
someone who seems very closed and defensive,
unwilling or
unable to hear what you have to say, try this spell.
Sit down or
place yourself lower than the other person. Be loose
and relaxed; do
not cross your arms or legs. Make your breathing
slow and even.
Visualize your aura (energy field) and draw it
close to you.
Imagine yourself holding a sword, and the other
party holding a
huge shield. Between you is a stone wall. In your
mind's eye, put
down the sword and watch the wall fade away.
Silently invite
your opposite to set aside the shield. Now invite the
other party to
speak, by saying something such as, "Can you tell
me how you're feeling
right now?" Listen, and listen some more.
Watch the
other's defenses melt.

Friday Cat Spell
According to a
French superstition, you don't see many cats on
Friday because
they go to Finisterre to report to the devil after
spending the
week spying on human families. (Finisterre is the
westernmost
region of Brittany, a place with strong ties to a
Celtic past.)
Because such negative beliefs are often inversions of
old traditions
resulting from the church's attempt to put down
the old
religions, this may be a survival of a Pagan belief that
the cats go to Finisterre to dance with the fairies. Therefore,
Witches can use
this belief as an opportunity to strengthen a
relationship
with the faery realm. On Friday morning, tie a red
string, loosely,
around your cat's neck, reciting: "Whither you
wander, you
carry my blessings." If the cat comes home without it,
you'll know the faery folk accept and return your good wishes.

Ocean Energy
Meditation
If you live near
an ocean, try this meditation designed to
increase energy
while promoting relaxation. Stand at the edge of the
ocean and inhale
its scent; listen to the waves as you gaze at
the sea. When a
wave comes in, scoop some water: Feel it; taste
it. Breathe in as
a wave recedes, breathe out as a wave breaks.
Shrug your
shoulders a few times. Close your eyes again and
meditate on an
ocean deity or spirit such as Yemaya, Tiamat, Neptune,
Poseidon, Isis, Pelagia, or Aphrodite. Feel the tension flow
from your neck
and shoulders, flowing down to the sand. Now open
your eyes.
Symbolically hug the ocean to your breast. Feel the
power of the
waves; absorb energy from the ocean. Feel your energy
level rise.
Thank the ocean for its blessings, and bless it in
return. Now have
a great day!

Empathy Spell
When
communication with someone founders, you can sometimes
understand what
is happening by using the empathy spell. First,
chantsilently to yourself: "Me in thee, what do I see?" Then imagine
yourself in the
other person's shoes, talking to you. Ask your
new self these
questions: "How do I feel? What do I want? Why do
I want it? How
can I get it? What do I fear? How do I see the
otheer
party in this conversation (your old self)? As friend?
Potential ally?
Obstacle? Enemy? A vague person? What am I seeing
that the other
party isn't seeing?" Then return to your own skin
and check your
new understanding by asking some careful neutral
questions, such
as, "If I'm understanding correctly, this is what
you want.
True?" Once you understand the other party, you will
quickly know
whether agreement is possible and what it will take
to achieve it.

Full Moon Spell
for Getting Organized
This Full Moon
(at 13 degrees of Capricorn) is during a lunar
eclipse.
Eclipses spotlight energies, and since Capricorn is the
get-organized
sign, this eclipse will affect government, social
standing,
career, and common sense. To utilize the energies of
this Moon, light
a brown, dark blue, or black candle, and think
about your life:
where you are, where you have come from, the
choices you have
made, and the opportunities you have taken or
missed. How does
this all mesh with what you envisioned for yourself
when you were
younger? Are you following in your famiily's
footsteps or
have you gone off in your own direction? Where do you
want to be?
Write all this down and when you are done burn the
paper releasing
your ambitions to the cosmos. Concentrate on your
work and how it
benefits society.

Beltane Spell to
Ward off Disease
Beltane is an
appropriate time to perform spells to ward off disease, as the
ancient Celts once drove their livestock through the smoke of their sacred
Beltane bonfires to keep disease at bay.
To perform this spell you will
need a piece of white chalk and a white candle that has never before been
burned. With the chalk, draw a pentagram
on the floor about four feet wide,
Light the white candle and hold it in our right hand. Step into the
pentagram, face east, and trice recite:

Full Moon Spell
For Secrets
This Beltane Full Moon at 17 degrees of Scorpio) comes near a difficult
aspect- Jupiter opposite Pluto the day before.. so this may be an intense,
troublesome, and unsettled time. Scorpio
is the sign of shared resources.
It also rules six, death, and taxes as well as insurance, secrets, and
mysteries. Burn a black or dark red
candle and meditate on the secrets you
hold. Write down your secrets and
imagine what might happen if they were
revealed to the world. What are you
hiding that is merely serving your ego?
What are you hiding which protects yourself or others? What are you hiding
because it gives you power? Tear the
paper into small pieces and bury them
in the earth if you want to keep those secrets, or flush them down the toilet
if you want to eliminate them from your life.

Juno's Day
Thursday is June's day. Juno is the
great organizer of society, and she rules city hall, courthouses, lawyers
offices, and banks, you may even find a likeness of her on a public building. She deserves a rightful place alongside Thor
and Jupiter in Thursday's lore of money and power. It is probably no accident that there is an
email provider called Juno, as she works well with technology issues, too. You may choose to call upon Juno if you have
legal, civic, or banking issues to deal with today, or if your computer is
acting up. Try wearing a mix of
patchouli oil with a not too sweet feminine scent like neroli,
lavender or melissa.
Wear royal purple or orange the color of intellect. Season food with a bay leaf to release the power
of bay laurel. Imagine Juno as your protector as you conduct your business.

A Charm to
Dispel a state of Melancholy
Fill a large earthenware pot with soft dark loam, and over its surface sprinkle
seeds of grass, gathered from the fields or bought, if need be, but all of them
fat and fertile. Set the pot in a sunny
window, and water it each day at dawn, saying these words...
Out of night
Shines the grass
So my darkness
Now may pass
And change to joy
That drinks the sun
As gold that from
His side doth run
When the grass has risen high and put forth good foliage, clip half its
number and make of this an infusion within a small teapot, letting the leaves
steep in the water for full fifteen minutes.
Sweeten this tea with honey,
and drink it slowly, meditating on the Sun that has given life to all leaves
and that same Sun toward which your spirit turns anew. The next morning clip
the remaining leaves and hang them to dry in a dim corner. Afterwards
preserve them in a small canister, that they may sustain your joy through the
days to come, never permitting their solar influence to depart again.

Spell to
Establish Concord between Rival Siblings
Had the nine
Muses fought the way most sisters do, humanity’s arts would be much the poorer.
To help establish sibling harmony among your children, bind objects symbolic of
each child with a six-foot-long brown ribbon. As you do so, repeat: “Binah brought you unto me. Mother goddess, hear this plea.
Let my children happy be; bound in soulful harmony.” If the Moon is waxing, you
should contemplate a growth of love among the siblings; if waning, meditate on
diminishing hostility. Pull the ribbon tight, and knot. Every time they fight,
think of their goddess-blessed unity. It will not take long for the spell to
take practical effect.

Get Pregnant
Spell
If you are
hoping to get pregnant, set aside several hours with your partner when the Moon
is full in a water sign- Cancer, Scorpio, or Pisces. Light a white candle and,
together, clearly state that you wish to parent a child. Tell each other what
your dreams are for this child, and how this child will change your lives. Be
realistic and honest with each other. As one white candle burns out, light
another, then demonstrate the level of care for each other. You may do this
through anything sensual, such as massage, bathing or snuggling. After the sex
act, continue showing care for each other for at least another hour. During
this time,
restate that
your intent is to bring a child into your family, and that you will show the
child the same level of care that you are currently showing to each other.

Effective
Communication Bath
If you are
looking to increase your communication skills, you may choose to cast this
bathing spell during the waning Moon. Toss a handful of table salt and a single
blank onyx into your bath water and chant: "Wash all mental blocks with
this stone. All negativity, all that has hold on me, banished be; my thoughts
flow clear and free." Immerse yourself in the bath completely nine times.
Allow your body to dry naturally, then bury the stone or release it into a body
of water.

Lammas Ritual
An old Pagan custom associated with Lammas is the making of a corn doll from
the last sheaf of corn from a harvest. For good luck throughout the coming
twelve months, the corn doll is traditionally hung up in the kitchen or in the
chimney, and kept there until the following lammas,
when it is ritually burned. It is said that if the previous year's corn doll is
not removed before Christmas, the next harvest will be a poor one. To make a
traditional Witch's corn doll for good luck, twist or tie together a few husks
of corn into a small female figure. If desired, you may dress the corn doll and
decorate it with dried flowers. Anoint it with a few drops of frankincense or
clove oil, and then pass it twelve times through the smoke of burning sage to
consecrate it as you chant your intent over it.

Group Project
Ritual
Oh, goody- you've been assigned to work on a group project! Now you need to
find a way to get everyone to work together- easier said than done! Still,
there are several magickal steps you can take to aid
the process. First, on the evening before the project begins, bake
"harmony" cookies for your project mates- sugar cookies, cut in
heart-shapes and sprinkled with vanilla sugar, will work well for this. Then,
before leaving for work in the morning, look in the mirror and see a patient,
cooperative, and efficient team player. Wear rose, carnation, or musk cologne,
and a red carnation in your buttonhole, and bring a bouquet of roses,
carnations, or geraniums to the boardroom table. Suggest lunch at an Italian or
Thai restaurant where they use lots of basil. Now, you should be ready to reap
the rewards of increased cooperation and team effort in the workplace.
