Light of Love: Altar Dedication
Light the candles and incense and dab the jasmine and essential oils near your heart. Speak aloud:
“I light the flame,
I fan the flame,
Each candle I burn is a wish
My lust will never be desired.
I desire and I will be desired.
Harm to none, so mote it be.”
Attracting that Attractive Stranger
This surefire attraction spell will bring that stranger to you. It is a “come-hitter conjuration” with simple yet supernatural magnetic pull. Use wisely!
Begin this ritual on a Friday, Venus’s Day. You will need:
• mandrake root;
• pink roses and candles;
• two globes of wine.
Place on your altar a man or woman-shaped mandrake root. Place the goblets of wine beside it. Burn the candle every night for a week starting on a Friday. Sop from the goblets and recite:
“Merry stranger, my heart,
Merry may we meet again.
Hail, fear fellow, we’ll meet
With this wine I toast you,
As we merry meet again.”
Make sure you look your best, and you will soon lock eyes again.
Budding Love: New Beginnings
This spell can be used to meet someone new or to bring on a new phase in an existing relationship. You will need:
• one pink and one blue candle;
• lily or jasmine oil;
• cinnamon tea and cinnamon sticks.
Anoint both candles with the essential oil. Light both and recite:
"Healing stars with new beginnings,
My heart is open, I'm ready now.
Goddess, will you show me how."
Drink a cup of cinnamon tea that you stirred counterclockwise with a cinnamon stick. Sprinkle cinnamon at your front door. When the cinnamon is crushed underfoot, its regenerative energy will help you start a fresh chapter in your love life.
Two Hearts Beat as One
To transform the object of your desire into your partner in passion, try this powerful attraction spell. You will need:
• plain muslin cloth;
• dried sage:
• one seven-day pink candle;
• red thread and needle or stapler.
Take the plain muslin and cut into two heart shapes. Sew (or staple if you are in a hurry) the two hearts together and leave a hole so you can stuff it with dried sage. Then sew it shut and either write or, if you are really crafty, embroider the name of the object of your affection onto the muslin heart. Put in your altar.
Each night at midnight, the witching hour, light the pink candle for thirty minutes beside the heart of the sachet and say aloud three times:
"To____ I offer affection.
To ____ I offer attention.
To ____ I offer joy.
And in return, I shall have the same.
So mote it be."
Now, your crush will return your attention and be ready to return your affection.
Amorous Amulets
For an optimal outcome to any important meeting - whether in romance or not - take an amulet with you. It can be tiny sack hidden in a pocket or contained in a locket. Fill your amulet with any of the following herbs:
• For courage - try borage or mullein;
• To avoid betrayal - the snapdragon will serve you well;
• For robust health - rue will do the trick;
• To overcome nervousness - a mix of dried yarrow and nettle is potent;
• To identify another witch - ivy, rue, broom straw, agrimony, and fern work the best;
• For travel - always wear comfrey for safety;
• For youthful energy - the oak's acorn will vitalise you;
• For strength and physical stamina - tuck some mugwort in your shoes;
• To assure victory - woodruff assures a winner;
• To guarantee a friendly exchange - heliotrope will make for a good conversation.
The Enchanted Bed
Anoint your bed with this special charm. In a red cup, mix half-teaspoon of rose oil with a half-teaspoon of jasmine oil. Hold it with both hands and speak:
"In this bed, I show my love.
In this bed, I share my body.
In this bed we are as one.
Here, my happiness lies as I give
and live in total joy.
Blessed be to me and thee."
As you say, "Blessed be," flick drops of your bed blessing oil from your fingers all across the bed until the cup is empty. Now, lie down and roll around in the bed. After all, that is what is for!
Love Nest Spell
To anoint your home a sacred space and turn it into a loving nest, rub any one of these following essential oils, undiluted, on your doorjamb.
• cinnamon;
• clover;
• cypress;
• dragon's blood;
• frankincense;
Walk through the door and close it securely. Take the remaining essential oil and anoint every other door and window. At the witching hour, midnight, light anointed white candles and place them in every doorway and windowsill, and sing:
"My home is my temple, and here
I will live and love and be healed.
And so it is by magic sealed."
Happy home for Two: Housewarming Ritual
When you and your partner move into a new home, place a wreath or bundle of dried hops and eucalyptus on the front door. Walk through the door, light your favourite incense and a brown candle, and lie down in the center of the front room. Whisper:
"House of my body,
I accept your shelter.
House of my spirit.
I receive your blessings.
Home to my heart, I am open to joy.
And so it is. And so it shall be."
