Love Spell
This ritual is best performed on Fridays during the waxing moon. Please feel inspired to carve runes into the wax. Sandalwood incense, apples, cinnamon, roses, honey, and copper coins are also good additions to the ritual space.
Take a moment to think or 3 or 7 words that clearly state your intent and insert them in the blanks below. Examples: “attracting a partner who I can be open and trusting with” “loving myself completely ” “strengthening my relationship with ___” “protecting against harmful relationships.”
Speak these words to your candle. I think saying these words out loud is the most important part, even if it feels goofy, or you need to whisper them. Speak your magic.
“Creature of wax and wick please aid me in ____”
“Creature of earth and herb please aid me in ____"
“Creature of stone and bone please aid me in ____”
And then as you light it “Creature of fire, please kindle this flame and aid me in ____”
Visualize all your good qualities (kindness, sense of humor, etc.) becoming a visible and tangible part of your aura. See them as a bright light that seeps from your skin and dances in the space around your body.
Sit with the candle and meditate for 15 to 20 minutes. I like to stare into the flame and watch it dance. Use this time to connect and see your candle as a living creature. Continue to hold the visualization in your head as you sit. Note any stray thoughts that come up, acknowledge them, then let them drift away
After I’m finished meditating and visualizing, I like to let the candle burn for another hour or two in the room I am in. I imagine the candle filling the space with magic and the magic seeping into every fiber of my being, into my clothes, my skin, my hair.
Perform this ritual as often as needed until the candle is gone. 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!
