Ambition Amulet

Fill a little pouch of muslin or cotton with pieces of tiger’s-eye, cedar, and carnelian. Carry it in your pocket or purse to give you that extra little push of motivation to jump over any hurdles or difficult tasks at work.

Blessed Balm Spell (Waning Moon is Optimal)

Simmer this mixture whenever you feel the need to infuse your home and heart with the energies of protection. A waning moon is the time to banish old negative energy. This will safeguard you and your loved ones from outside influences that could be negative or disruptive. Set your intention and gather together the following herbs:

• ¼ cup rosemary 
• 1 teaspoon dill weed 
• 4 bay laurel leaves cup cedar 
• 1 tablespoon basil 
• 1 teaspoon juniper berries 
• 1/8 cup sage

Mix your herbs together by hand. While you are doing this, close your eyes and visualize your home as a sacred place protected by a boundary of glowing white light. Add the herbs to a pan filled with simmering water. When the aromatic steam rises, intone:

By my own hand, I have made this balm; 

This divine essence contains my calm. 

By my own will, I make this charm; 

This precious potpourri protects all from harm. 

With harm to none and health to all, 

Blessed be!
