Lucky Lists!

If prosperity is your real concern, write your wishes on little paper scrolls and bury them in soil. Every time you water the tree, you will be bringing the wishes closer to fruition. If luck, happiness, or general goodwill are your aim, make wishes and hang charms on your tree: colored ribbons, crystals, anything that strikes your fancy. This should also be a custom with friends and guests.  Every time you add an ornament, you must also take one down. Only when your charm has been removed does your wish come true.

Conjuring Prosperity: Manifesting a Good Life

I learned very early in life that my fate was mine to guide, and that I could manifest my will through the tools of magic. When in a pinch,  I have used witchcraft to replenish the coffers.  I have also used prosperity spells to find a good home I could afford to rent, attract job opportunities, and help others in need. People have always marveled at what they perceive as my “good luck,” or suggested that I have a fleet of guardian angels behind my every move. But luck has nothing to do with it.

As soon as you approach your prosperity consciously, you will see that you have the power to choose abundance. When you increase your material wealth, you reduce the need to worry about such worldly matters or just getting by day to day. Then, you can move on to achieving true prosperity and abundance, expanding your mind through learning, pursuing your pleasures, spending time with family and friends, and enjoying your life.

Witches have always been concerned with real prosperity. Abundance, luck, good fortune, and security are all matters of hearth and home, where good witches preside. The legacy of the pagan approach to prosperity is evident all around if you look with open eyes and ears. It is certainly no accident that paper money has ancient symbols! Every little child knows to look for four-leaf clovers for good luck. These types of “superstitions” are actually common-sense folk wisdom passed down through the centuries.

Every day is an opportunity for growth in every aspect of your life, and the level of your success is entirely up to you. For some, success means a lot of money; for others, success signifies a wealth of real estate; for yet another, success might be making a beautiful painting or sculpture, or a burgeoning garden. Why is this important? Because first, you must know what you want in order to make it manifest. Once you are clear about this, you are on your way to attaining your desires.

Lucky Wishing Charms

Many of us don’t realize that the classic charm bracelet is decorated with magical symbols representing the wearer’s wishes.

    * For prosperity, such as before a job interview, when asking for a raise, or if you find yourself in                   arrears, wear a coin.

    * For love, try a heart.

    * For creativity on a project, a pen or artist’s palette.

Under the Waxing Moon: A Spell to Banish Bad Luck

Your altar is the heart center of your home, holding the energy of your sanctuary. Yet the world is constantly coming in and bringing harmful energy over your threshold—problems at the workplace, financial woes, or bad news about new virus mutations or the climate crisis. All this negativity wants to get in the way and stay. While you can’t do anything about stock market crashes, the rate of inflation, or a coworker’s divorce, do not allow this bad energy to cling to you. Instead, you can do something about it with a home-keeping spell. The best time to release any and all bad luck is on a Friday the 13th or during any waxing moon. As you know, Friday the 13th is considered a lucky day on the witch’s calendar.

Get a big black candle and a black crystal, a piece of white paper, a black pen with black ink, and a cancellation stamp, readily available at any stationery store. Go into your backyard or a nearby park or woodland and find a flat rock that has a slightly concave surface.

Using the pen, write down on the white paper that which you want to rid yourself and your home of. This is your release request. Place the candle and the black crystal on the rock, and light the candle near an open window. As the negativity is released outside while the candle burns, intone:

    Waxing moon, most wise Cybele,

    from me this burden please dispel.

    Upon this night so clear and bright

    I release ___ to the moon tonight.

Go outside and place the rock altar on the ground and visualize a clear and peaceful home filled with only positivity as the candle burns for thirteen minutes. Stamp the paper with the cancel stamp. Snuff the candle, fold the paper away from your body, and place it under the rock. Speak your thanks to the moon for assisting you. If you have a truly serious issue at hand, repeat the process for thirteen nights and all will be vanquished.

Star Sapphire—Giver of Great Luck

Sir Richard Burton always carried a star sapphire with him as a talisman while he traveled through Asia and the Middle East. According to Burton, the stone brought him excellent horses and ensured that he received attention right when he needed it. It does seem to have worked, as he is still receiving accolades and consideration long after his passing. A generous soul, he would show his star sapphire to the friendly folk who had helped him, since this gem is a giver of good luck.

Lucky-Stone Spell

Another lucky charm for solvency is to take seven tiny turquoise stones and put them on your windowsill during a full moon for seven hours. Then pick up the stones, and while holding them in the palm of your hand, speak this wish-spell:

“Luck be quick, luck be kind.
And by lucky seven, good luck will be mine.”

Carry these lucky stones with you in a bright blue bag and be on the lookout for blessings to shower down upon you. You might receive a gift, win free services, or literally find money in your path.

Presentation Pendulum

If you are a creative person getting ready to present your work to the world, you can wear a talisman of your own making to ensure a positive outcome. Many performers, artists, musicians, and other inspired folks have lucky pieces of clothing or some other token that gives them courage to put themselves forth in the best possible manner.

Crystal and gem magic is perfect for creating your own success in this sort of endeavor. Put a talismanic power stone in your pocket or purse and you will have an aura of achievement all around you. When choosing your talisman, keep these pointers in mind:

* Red stones, such as garnet, ruby, carnelian, red jasper, and jade, are excellent for attracting positive attention, such as publicity for your recital or poetry reading. For a speech, a performance, a presentation, or a show or your art, wear red jewelry.

* Green stones, such as emerald and peridot, are wonderful for realizing your potential for wealth and successful new projects. If you are preparing for a possibly lucrative deal of your creative output— pitching a book or an art opening—you must wear green jewelry.

* Blue stones, such as turquoise, topaz, lapis lazuli, and sapphire, help you to see clearly and without obstruction. If you are trying to empower someone to see and share your creative vision, blue gems are right for you.

Lucky Charms and Ring of Power: A Protection Spell

Most people don’t realize that the classic charm bracelet is decorated with magical symbols representing the wearer’s wishes. For wealth, wear a Roman coin on your bracelet; for love, try a heart. For protection, a pure silver ring worn on the right pinkie has the greatest magical power, especially when engraved with your birth sign or astrological glyph and the sacred pentagram. To instill the ring with protective power, clasp it over your heart and call out:

Ring of power, shield and encircle me. 
By your charm, I am free.

Blessed be me. All are one. 
Blessings to all and harm to none.
