A "Welcome Home" Ritual


When you or a friend move into a new home, place a wreath on the front door and also on outside of the kitchen door or back door, if your kitchen doesn’t lead directly outside. Gather two bundles of dried hops or eucalyptus, tie them with green and brown ribbons and hang them high on the door.  Walk through each door with a brown candle in a glass votive jar and aromatic cinnamon incense. 

Intone:

House of my body, I accept your shelter.
Home of my heart, I receive your blessings.
Home of my heart, I am open to joy.
And so it is. And so it shall be.

Green Magic- Basil Abundance Ritual


Take a few sprigs of basil before you cook and put them in a green bowl on your kitchen altar. Boil water as for tea and pour over the herb in the bowl. Now chant this medieval-inspired charm:

With bounteous hand and healthful balm,
Blessed basil, most verdurous herb
Bring me health and heart and calm
Abundance I shall see by every deed and verb.
And so it is.

Breathe in the steam from the basil bowl and fill your lungs with the smell of prosperity. Repeat the spell once more; leave the basil bowl on your altar for 24 hours.  Not only will your thinking be greatly clarified but you will begin to see signs of your wealth increasing with one week. With basil flourishing in your herb pots, you have a ready source bursting with positive money energy.

Harness the Energy of the Full Moon to Become More Psychic


Telepathy Tea

The full moon is a perfect time to unleash your prophetic potential when trying to make decisions about investments, job opportunities, or new business ventures. Sharpen your senses with any of these herbal teas:

Borage: A commonplace herb, which is ruled by Jupiter, the planet of abundance.

Mugwort: A favorite of witches for centuries; this is a Venusian infusion.

Yarrow: Drink this before any candle magic for deep knowledge.

Dandelion Root: Grind this dried root and sleep; drink in direct moonlight.

The humble dandelion oft abhorred by lawn keepers, hides its might well. Dandelion root tea can call upon the spirit of anyone whose advice you might need. Simply place the brew on your nightstand and say the spirits name seven times; he or she will visit your dreams and answer your questions. In Chaucer’s day, this method was used to find lost treasures.

Call Upon Angels When You Need Help


Spell for Welcoming Benevolent Spirits

We can all use more angels in our lives.  Some angels may take human form, such as a human friend who is always there in a crisis.  Still others are above in the ether and can be invoked with a few words and focused intention.  Use this spell when you need a guiding hand and angelic assistance.

           Supplies:


           Sage
           Your wind chime

1.     Bless the new wind chime by smudging with sage smoke.

2.     Jingle the chimes energetically and say aloud:

I call on my angels to guide joy to my door.
Such gladness as I receive, so I shall give.
By the moon and the stars
I call on my guardians
To show me the best way to live.
For this, I am grateful.

Blessed be.

Candle Magic for Your Enchanted Life: Change the Energy in Your Home for the Better


CANDLES AND LIGHT
Candles are a simple yet profound tool that can make powerful magic.  Today, candle magic is used daily by folks of all walks of life for peace of mind, respite, contemplation, and aromatherapeutic healing.  Candlelight transforms a dark room and illuminates the air with energy.  Suddenly, the potential for a mystical realm is evident as you start to feel the latent power.  A spell, prayer, or ritual lit by a single candle has the potency of all the stars in the sky.  Candles contain the following four elemental energies:

·       Air: oxygen feeds and fans the candle flame
·       Earth: the solid wax that forms the candle
·       Water: the melted wax is the fluid elemental state
·       Fire: the spark and blaze of the candle flame

Charging Your Candles
“Charging” a candle means to imbue it with magical intent.  A candle that has been charged carries that intention through all four elements and up to the heavens and fills the very air of your sacred space with your magic.  Spell work and ritual candles are chosen for their color correspondences, and then they are “dressed”, or anointed with the energy of an essential oil.  Each color holds the intrinsic vibratory energy of different colors and their magical properties.

COLOR CORRESPONDENCES FOR CANDLE MAGIC
Black: banishing, absorbing, expulsion of the negative, healing serious disease, attracting money
Brown: home, animal wisdom, grounding, healing
Dark blue: change, flexibility, the unconscious, psychic powers, curing
Gray: neutrality, stalemate, cancellation, invisibility
Green: wealth, abundance, growth, luck, employment, gardening, early life, attractiveness, fertility
Light blue: patience, bliss, overcoming depression, tranquility
Orange: attraction, triumph over legal issues, changeability, stimulation, intelligence, clarity, logic, support, encouragement
