Abundance Spell
The first time I read an abundance spell, I thought it was meant for attaining wealth, and that’s a part of it, but it's deeper than that. Abundance is more than wealth. It's a rich and full life. It means you have more than you need, and you share it. An abundance spell should bring money, luck, gratitude, and happiness. Part of the spell might be realizing what you already have.
This candle magick ritual is best performed as a series of rituals starting on the new moon and performed daily or weekly until the full moon. The best days are Wednesday, ruled by Mercury for luck and money-drawing. Or on a Sunday, ruled by the sun and good for active change, wealth, and hope.
When setting up your ritual space, gather items that make you feel rich. Dress in clothing that makes you feel happy and confident. You might want to surround yourself with pictures of friends and family as well. Other optional additions are listed at the end of the article.
Sit with the candle for a moment and connect with it. Hold it in your hands. Meditate on what you have now. In which ways is your life already abundant? Abundance is twofold. It is gratitude for what you have and the attraction of more. You could have all the money in the world and not feel satiated. We are looking for that balance of desire and gratitude.
As you light the candle speak of the abundant life you desire. Be specific. What does it feel, taste, smell, and look like? Speak and fully visualize this life. At first, this might seem silly, but as you start speaking, you'll feel something release in you. As you talk, let your words drift into the flame. Imagine them as literal fuel for the fire. Keep your mouth closer to the candle without getting burned. You want to have your words and your breath reaching the flame. Speak and breathe your desires to life.
After you have run out of words. Sit for a few minutes with your eyes closed. Feel this life around you. Draw from this powerful place. This is a little beyond meditation or visualization. I want you to feel that you are in this abundant life. That if you opened your eyes, you would actually be where you wanted to be.
Now is an excellent time to sit with the candle and journal. You could reflect on what abundance means to you, offer gratitude for what you have or write affirmations. When you blow out the candle feel that energy release into the air around you.
When the candle is gone keep the stone on your altar or in your pocket. The stone capture the essence of the ritual and can act as a talisman if you wish. Or click here for instructions on turning your candle into a spell jar!
Optional exercises or additions
During the next two weeks keep an eye open for lucky pennies or coins. A lucky coin is one you find heads up. Bring the coins back to the candle and place it as its base. Feel gratitude for what the universe has brought you.
Bathe in flowers and pineapple juice for joy and good fortune. Bring the candle into the bathroom and create as much a ritual as you can. Baths are the ultimate indulgence. Soft music, lots of candles, incense, and bubble bath are all good additions. Wrap yourself in your most luxurious towel or robe when you are done.
Call on the forces of Jupiter or the sun for luck and good fortune. Research what stones, days, hours, symbols resonate with these forces. How can you bring them into your practice with honor?
Cleanse your house with frankincense and/or myrhh. Remember after you cleanse you are drawing in luck, good fortune, and happy spirits. You might want to make two loops around your house, one to banish that bad, the other to invoke the good.
