This is a simple knot spell that can be done quickly before heading out for a night on the town or meeting up with a potential lover. It can also be used to attract a lover to you in your daily life, but it’s more for intentional partner seeking kind of behavior.
It’s definitely a kind of “notice me” spell, so it’ll instill a sense of confidence, body positivity, and an alluring glamour.
You can braid the cords together, which will last longer and be more decorative, but that will take longer. Do whatever works best for you.
Ideally, it should be worn on the wrist, but it that doesn’t work for you, you can tie it to your ankle, garter, or even to your underwear. You could easily make the string longer and wear it as a necklace or make it very small and wear it as a ring. It just needs to be touching your body, preferably your skin.
What you’ll need:
Two pieces of red string (or ribbon, thread, etc) in equal lengths, long enough to go around your wrist or ankle
Take the two pieces of red string and line them up side by side, so each end lines up perfect. Say,
“This is you and this is me, side by side
I’ve set the stage, so come to my side lover.”
Knot the strings together. Say,
“I am beauty, I am strength, I am glorious,
You know what you see, so come to my side.”
Knot the strings together. Say,
“I am seeking love,
I am seeking you,
Now that you see me, come to my side.”
Knot the strings together around your wrist, forming a bracelet.
Wear this bracelet until a new lover comes into your life. Once you’ve made a positive connection, cut it off and bury the string outside.
When you need to be eloquent, charming, and fine with your speech, this spell is your helping hand.
Excellent for times where you need to make a public speech, have a job interview, important presentation, or any time where your words will make or break what happens next.
What you’ll need:
Indian crepe myrtle flowers (lagerstroemia indica)
Cream colored rose (any kind)
Ylang-ylang essential oil (canangaodorata)
Fennel
Cardamom
Sugar
Agate, especially blue lace or sardonyx
Sun water
Yellow paper and black marker
Cloth bag, preferably yellow
Gather up all of your ingredients and prep or cleanse them accordingly.
Draw in an arrow on the yellow paper. Anoint it with a drop of ylang-ylang essential oil and a drop of sun water. Let dry.
Place the flowers, herbs, sugar, agate, and the dried paper in the cloth bag. As you add each item, say,
"With you, I am charming and eloquent.
People heard my words and listen to me."
When done, hold the bag between both hands and blow into it, saying,
"My breath carries my power and words,
My meaning and intent comes across to all who hear them clearly."
Close the bag and press a kiss to the knit tying it close.
"My words are heard,
My eloquence is clear for all who can see and hear."
Carry the bag with you. Before you go out to make your speech, press the bag to your throat, breath across it and/or press a kiss to it saying,
"I am eloquent. Hear my words."
Notes:
You may swap in yellow jasmine flowers to replace the Indian crepe myrtle or ylang-ylang
If you have access to ylang-ylang flowers, use that instead of the essential oil and omit the step with the essential oil.
You may wish to enchant the cloth bag so it isn’t noticeable, but that’s up to you.
Instead of a cloth bag, you can easily swap this for a locket necklace or spell bottle.
This healing spell is useful for illnesses and diseases but can be tricky to procure the ingredients. While seeking medical attention when feeling ill is always recommended, sometimes you need just a little boost in healing.
What you’ll need:
Bezoar or a regular garden or roadside rock
Powdered horn or piece of cattle bone
Iron
Rosemary
Basil
Coffee
Peppermint and/or feverfew if feverish or cayenne pepper / paprika and cinnamon if chilled.
Bowl, dish, or disposable cloth
Get your dish, bowl, or disposable cloth. Sprinkle the herbs and coffee at the bottom of the dish. Place in the iron.
Now pick up your bezoar or garden rock. Holding it over the dish, sprinkle the powdered horn over bezoar / rock. If you’re using a cattle bone, just pass the bone over, around, and under the bezoar / rock. While doing this, think of how this rock will be able to heal and absorb the illnesses or diseases it comes into contact with. Think of the illness or disease leaving the patient and going into the rock. Imagine that when this happens the rock will get full, heavy, and cold.
When you’re happy with your envisioning, place the bezoar / rock in bed with the patient. Usually under the pillow works but in between layers of a blanket would be good too. You could also hang it on the headboard or leave it on a bedside table very close to the patient. The most ideal way is to have the patient wear the stone but that’s not always possible or safe. Don’t put it under the patient. The bezoar / rock should be on the same level as the patient.
Place the dish of herbs, iron, and powdered horn / cattle bone under the patient’s bed. It should rest directly under the patient while they sleep but if that’s not possible, place it by the end of the bed. Leave it uncovered.
Change out the herbs and coffee as needed but don’t forget to add in the iron or the powdered horn / cattle bone.
Once the patient has started to recovered, you can remove the bezoar / rock and powdered horn or cattle bone. You can keep both to cast the spell again at a later date but eventually both will become too saturated with magic or illness and must be disposed of. To do this, take both far away to a crossroads, graveyard, or abandoned place and bury it.
You can keep the herbs under the bed until the patient has completely recovered. The herbs should be burned or buried in a different place than the bezoar / rock and powdered horn / cattle bone but similarly at a crossroad far away from the patient.
Notes:
This spell calls for a lot of hard to find ingredients. Substitutes are probably the way to go for most people here. Picking up a rock from beside the road, a died piece of bone from a steak, and a low-grade nail would work well in place of the above ingredients.
This spell is unique in that you can absolutely keep the bezoar / rock or powdered horn / cattle bone and use them as ritual healing tools. You would just need to deeply cleanse the illnesses and diseases from them. I don’t recommend this unless you’re really sure of your cleansing abilities.
The herbs and coffee can be used to divine the cause of the illness, the likelihood of the patient’s recovery, the details of the patient’s illness or recovery, and the patient’s immediate future. You can do this by lightly shaking the dish and looking for patterns and symbols, not unlike tea reading.
The iron piece can be kept and carried by the patient to guard against relapses.
This is a quick spell that can be used by anyone who needs protection right now. This verbal spell is more for people who need to hide or not be seen. It can be placed on a building or group of people, you just need to spend more energy to make it so.
Obviously, if you’re in some sort of danger, immediately remove yourself from that situation and get help. You should always back up your magic with practical actions too, if possible.
What to do:
Gather your energy around you and let it cover you entirely in one smooth swath. Like throwing a blanket over your head to cover your entire body. The energy should settle a bit heavy and warm over your body, but your results may vary. You may feel a bit sleepy or drained but push through to finish the spell.
As the energy settles, say,
“I am protected from all harm,
I am safe here.
I am unseen by all who may hurt me.
I am hidden from all harm.”
Notes:
Make sure you are using practical and mundane methods of keeping safe!
Yes, this sounds like something from a DnD game or video game, but you’re going to actually make a real magic ring of abundance. A ring with a lot of historical occult meaning behind it, once you start looking at the aspects of the ring.
Because of the nature of the spell, you’ll spend more time seeking out the right ring for this spell than you will casting the spell. I will say that these rings are not expensive (as rings go) and are easy enough to locate with the power of the internet.
Check the notes after the spell!
What you need:
A gold, copper, or brass ring set or inlaid with aventurine or peridot
Brass bell
Acquire a gold ring set with aventurine or peridot. Copper or brass can be alternatively used.
Cleanse the ring using a brass bell. Then set the ring in a sunny window for a few hours to charge the ring with sunlight.
Once charged and ready, sit with the ring and let your energy flow into the ring. When you feel like you’ve pass on enough energy, say the following while focusing on positive thoughts of abundance.
"Ring of mine
You bring abundance to me
Ring of mine
You bring wealth and financial gain
You bring luck to everything
Ring of mine
You bring health and wellness
You bring success and joy
Ring of mine
You are abundance
And you bring endless abundance to me
So long as I wear thee."
Make sure to take the time to really infuse energy into the ring. You want to make sure that you’re increasing and drawing luck, financial wealth, happiness, success, good health, and all around abundance to you. Repeat the chant as often as you want and/or need to.
You should wear your enchanted ring on your dominate hand’s middle finger. However, any finger should do so long as you feel completely comfortable and empowered wearing it there.
Notes:
The brass bells are great if you have them but you can also just use the sound of a brass bell. Use the power of the internet to your advantage.
They do make solid aventurine rings. They are an excellent alternative to having one made of metal.
Ideally, the ring should be made of gold. Copper is a very close second choice while brass is a solid third choice.
Peridot is recognized as the gemstone name (and coloring) of olivine (also known as chrysolite). They are the same stone. However, in Cunningham’s Encyclopedia of Crystal, Gem & Metal Magic, he comments on a debate over whether that’s true and separates them into two different stones. That book was published in 1988. My copy comes from 2000 and still has Peridot and Olivine separated. Everywhere else (other books and the internet) consider them the same thing. I’ll leave this debate to you rock nerds, but I’ve used both and they feel identical to me.
My lightning fast google search revealed thousands of results for aventurine rings, with many of them set in gold metal. They average about $50 USD, with a electroplated versions going as low as $25. I even found a handful of vintage aventurine rings.
Peridot gold rings are more expensive, according to my google searches at about $80 USD and often hundreds of dollars more because it’s the August birthstone. However, there’s quite a lot more variation founds in peridot rings versus aventurine rings, so you may wish to buy a peridot if only to get something unique and meaningful to you.
No matter how well you get along, families sometimes fight. My household is made up of all adults – my mother, younger brother, and uncle. Even our pets are ten plus years old. And although we all are adults and we get along well, we still fight sometimes.
This spell is perfect for when your family all has their own things going on and just needs to work together to keep living in the same household. This is also good for roommates or similar situations. This is good for people who live with you, but I could see it being useful for people who are constantly in and out of someone else’s house (like a best friend, relative, etc).
This spell is perishable and so it should be renewed every six months to year. (Earlier is good too.)
What you need:
A dry, cool place
Onions or garlic with stalks intact (whatever you prefer)
Decently strong kitchen string or twine
First purchase or grow onions or garlic and make sure to keep the stalks intact. If you can’t find onions or garlic with the stalks intact, try a farmer’s market. Growing them yourself is a great way to get them as well.
Take a week to two weeks to dry out the garlic and onions. You want the stalks not squishy but not too dry.
Select your three largest garlic or onions and place them on a table with the stalks facing the same direction. Tie a piece of string around the stalks, envisions or speaking how you’re uniting or tying the members of the family together. These should be three members of the household who get along the best or are the “foundation” of the household. Maybe whoever is on the apartment lease, pays the most important bills, or is a good mediator.
Next, start braiding the stalks. If you don’t know how to braid, I’ll link some tutorials for braiding garlic and onions a little further on, but I’ll explain it quickly. Take the left stalk (or strand of hair or whatever) and cross it over the middle. Then you take the rightmost stalk and cross it over the middle (which was once the leftmost stalk. Then you take the current leftmost stalk (what was once the center stalk in the beginning) and cross it over the current middle stalk (once the rightmost stalk). Then repeat, back and forth until done.
To add more onions or garlic to the braid, you pick up the garlic/onion and place it wherever you like and add the stalk to whatever side you’re putting it on. So rather than one stalk, there’s two stalks for one “strand”. Braid a bit more to secure than add a garlic or onion to the opposite side. Keep going to fill out the braid.
You can name the garlic or onions you’re adding, representing each person and animal in the household. Towards the top, you may even wish to add people who are not part of the household but are frequent visitors, like a significant other or a best friend. It doesn’t have to be a large braid. If you only have a handful of onions or garlic, that’s okay.
When you’ve added all the garlic/onion you want to add, then braid up the stalks to give it a good base and use a piece a string to tie it off, confirming that you’re uniting these people under the same roof for good harmony or whatever.
Store the onion / garlic braid in a cool, dry place until you’re ready to use it. Or just hang it somewhere in your kitchen away from the sink.
You can use the onion and garlic in your cooking. When you break off or cut the onion/garlic off, say something like “I cut away our disharmony” to counter the act of removing the onion or garlic from the braid. Watch to make sure that there isn’t disharmony directed towards or from this person after you cut off their onion or garlic. Depending on your style of magic, you may find that the braid can only be used decoratively and not practically.
I’ve given some simple steps to do this, but there’s more in-depth tutorials for this sort of thing out there. Here’s how to braid garlic. And here’s how to braid onions.
This is an enchanted water that you spray on your sheets to help set the scene for a sexy night. As scent-based water sprays go, this might be on the lighter side, so don’t be afraid to add more essential oils as needed.
Pour the distilled water in and add the salt, shaking the bottle until the salt is dissolved. While you shake the bottle, set your intentions. Think of cleansing all negative energy, anxiety, and ill feelings from whoever touches this water or smells the scent this water will carry.
Add in your essential oils. Take your time to ensure you’ve measured it out properly. As you measure it out, speak or think sexy thoughts. Of being intimate with your partner and the kind of intimacy you’d like to share.
Shake the bottle to blend, setting your final intentions of the night being consensual and enjoyable to all parties.
To use, simply spray the water lightly over your sheets and pillows. Let dry a bit before getting into bed.
This is a love spell to draw romantic love to you. Someone who will love your heart and not your physical appearance.
What you’ll need:
A mirror you can move around
A red, yellow, pink, or white candle
Place the candle in front of you and shift the mirror so that the candle is reflected in the mirror but not you. Turn out the lights and make it as dark as possible without making yourself uncomfortable or creating a trip hazard.
Light the candle and say,
"I seek love.
Someone who loves me for me
Someone who loves me for what they cannot physically see
Someone who loves me beyond what I look like.
Someone that sees my unseen heart, my unseen mind, and my unseen soul
And loves all of me for that.
I seek a love that comes to me now.
A love who will see me, know me, and love me.
I seek love."
Blow out the candle, making sure that you briefly appear in the mirror while doing this.
Notes:
The candle really can be any color. I selected red and pink because they’re often the colors of romance. I assign yellow as a “seeking” color – used to find things or seek them out. White was the color I originally had in mind, because this really is a seeking spell and the same method can be used with a different chant, you know?
A portable mirror or make up mirror works well for this kind of spell, but a medicine cabinet mirror could easily be used as well.
The intention of the final glance of you as you blow out the candle is a physical connection is made at some point. This can be skipped if you’re not looking for any sort of physical connection.
This jar spell is meant to attract affection and/or romance. It can be used to bring willing romantic partners to you or encourage new friends or better family relations. The best part of this jar spell? It can sit right out in the open and, depending on the ingredients, can be a long-term sustained spell.
What you’ll need:
A jar, bottle, or some other clear container that can seal (A mason jar, pickle jar, water bottle, etc.)
Herbs & ingredients for your purpose (see below)
Key items you associate with your purpose (A friendship bracelet to rekindle a friendship long past, a business card from a place you’d like to hang out in with your new friends, a rose for romance, photo of your family to boost happy home spells, quartz for more power, etc)
Key ingredients for what you want to happen (Coffee so you go out on coffee dates, coaster from a club you’d like to go to with new friends, etc.)
Filler such as sand, corn flour, ashes, saw dust, sugar, etc. (optional)
Funnel for pouring ingredients (optional)
Herbs and ingredients to use will depend largely on your personal practice and paradigm. Select items that has some sort of folkloric meaning akin to your purpose or that item reminds you of friendship or love.
Here’s a short list for romance:
chocolate or cocoa
roses
apples
carnations
aster
jasmine
A short list for friendship:
buttercups
lilacs
vanilla
oranges
tea
daisies
Filler ingredients are good for people who want a full-looking jar and don’t have enough ingredients to add to the jar or want to hide ingredients from view. I’d recommend picking a filler that means something to you. I’d pick sand, for example, but you might pick campfire ash so you can find camping buddies, or sugar to sweeten current friendships and find new non-toxic friends.
Cleanse your jar and empower it with your purpose. This mean you can add energy to it, tell it your purpose in a couplet or verbally, or hold the jar and envision the future you want this jar to help you achieve happening now.
Gather all your ingredients together and layer them in the jar however you wish. Be as artful or not as you like. As you add them, you can say either verbally or in your head what you’re adding them to the jar for.
Once you’ve run out of ingredients or you’re happy with the jar, go ahead and close it up.
Mason jars are popular but fancy bottles are great too
Midway through the bottle
Just place on a shelf!
Notes:
This spell will work best if you carefully think about your purpose before casting the spell and use care in picking your ingredients.
Many jar spells require shaking to “wake up” or empower the spell. This one doesn’t but you can shake it if you want.
You can add ingredients whenever you want but don’t take out an ingredient.
If you do, just scrap the whole jar and start again. If your ingredients start to get moldy, toss them, wash the jar out (boiling water, soap and water, salt water, or vinegar in any combination.)
When you want the spell to end, just toss the ingredients (don’t bury them) and wash the jar out.
This jar is intended to sit out in the open on your altar, vanity, on top of a dresser, or in a dry area of your bathroom.
What you’ll need:
Clean, dry jar with a lid (lid should be waterproof if in a damp area like a bathroom)
Dried chamomile petals
Dried cherry blossoms
Dried meadowsweet petals
Dried rose petals
Dried jasmine petals
Clean, cleanse, and fully dry out your jar.
Layer your flower petals in the jar in whatever pattern pleases you. As you fill your jar, speak self-love affirmations to yourself. Or you can write up a personal chant to repeat to yourself daily.
Examples: “I am beautiful. I am loved. I am kind to myself. I am compassionate. I am strong. I am confident. I am a gift. I deserve respect. I deserve loyalty. I am successful. I am allowed to take up space. I am worthy of love. I am happy.”
Seal the jar and put it on a shelf where you’ll see it daily. Whenever you feel like you need a boost, hold the jar and take a moment to soak in the positive, loving energy.
Notes:
If you aren’t storing this in a damp area like a bathroom, you don’t need a waterproof lid. If you are, you’ll need one to avoid molding of your ingredients. Your jar can have a water-tight lid but you can also swap it for an sort of lid so long as you have enough sealing wax to cover it.
You can substitute any of the flowers listed the following: yarrow, sunflower, plumeria (frangipangi), orange blossoms, apple blossoms, peach blossoms, lavender, pear blossoms, lovage, plum blossoms, poppy petals, gardenia petals, tulip petals, moonwort
Remember gravity: heavier flower petals will fall to the bottom of the jar.
