Autumn Magic

On the Autumn Equinox or or Mabon (today - Sept 22nd) it is a great time to put together a magical good luck altar as you show your respect for the harvest, the dead and the Triple Goddess shifting into the crone.

Gather leaves that are common to your locale. Also - pick up sticks (no taking branches off of trees) and a few stones. The amount of leaves/sticks does not matter.

You will also need: 3 apples, 3 orange candles, a ear of corn, non-metal bowl, 3 candlesticks, 1 spell charcoal, Herbs: Sandalwood, Oakmoss, Juniper, Patchouli.

Mix together equal parts of the: Sandalwood, Oakmoss, Juniper, Patchouli - put aside.

Arrange on an altar, table or shelf an arrangement of the stones, branches, apples and leaves that feel right to you -- this is an intuitional placement.

Next - place the candles: one in the middle - and one on each end of the arrangement. Careful to make sure they are far enough away from anything flammable.

Light the charcoal - put it in the non-metal bowl. Sprinkle the mixture of Sandalwood, Oakmoss, Juniper, Patchouli over the lit coals.

Light the candles.

In your own words - give thanks for the upcoming harvest - for autumn - and anything else you are truly grateful for. Afterwards - state your wishes. Be short & specific.

End by again - saying thank you.

Let the candles burn down. Before winter hits - bury everything that was on your altar. If that's not possible - return everything to nature, except for the wax, which you will have to throw away.

Opening Up Your Third Eye

Do you want to be more psychic? Maybe figure out your dreams? Find your soul mates? Then open up your third eye and let it do its job.

In a NON METAL BOWL mix together: 1/8 tsp of MUGWORT, 9 drops each of: CINNAMON, SANDALWOOD and ORANGE essential oils.

Apply the MIXTURE to the middle of your forehead, on your skull above the uppermost portion of your ear lobes and finally at the base of your skull - where the skull & the back of the neck meet.

Reapply as needed. Store leftovers in a cool, dark place.

Breaking An Obsession

Do you have an obsession that you need to break? A bad habit, a connection to a person, place or substance? If so -- give this spell a try!

Supplies: Chili Pepper, Paper, Pen, Your Saliva

Instructions:

Take the PEN and write down on the PAPER the obsession you wish to rid yourself of.

Put some of YOUR SALIVA onto the PAPER.

Sprinkle a pinch of CHILI PEPPER over the PAPER as you imagine how your life will be after the obsession has left you.

Fold the PAPER until you cannot fold it any longer.

Bury the PAPER either outside or in a potted plant.

Cemetery Summonings

Do you wish to talk to the dead? Take a trip to the cemetery.

Before you leave your house:

1) Burn Frankincense or Bay Leaves to clear out any neg vibes and strengthen your energy defenses.

2) Make sure that you have a protective stone on you. Such as a Turquoise, Onyx or Black Tourmaline.

3) Call in your Guardian Angels and Spirits Guides to be with you.

When you get to the cemetery, walk around it three times, keeping your wits about you and focused in on your desire for communications. As you walk, the dead will communicate.

After you are finished and get home - burn Frankincense or Bay Leaves to clear out any neg vibes & spirit attachments.

Thank your Guardian Angels and Spirits Guides for their aid.

Ask An Angel

Do you have a question or a situation that you would like the angels to help you with? Follow this dandy spell.

1. On a BAY LEAF write your situation or question as specifically as possible.
2. Place the BAY LEAF (or leaves if the leaf was small) under your pillow.
3. As you fall asleep repeat the following until you are out:

I call upon the angels that surround me
Here me
See (state the situation/question)
Tell me what I need to know.

4. Write down your dreams as soon as you wake up.

Psychic Vampire Defenses

Do you find yourself drained of energy after talking to a particular person or by visiting a certain place? If so, your psychic energy has been drained. Take these steps to stop leaking your energy.

Protective Energy Shields: Carry black tourmaline and/or labradorite to provide an shield of protective energy. Make sure you carry them in your pocket (as opposed to a sachet) so that they are readily available to hold in your receptive hand (the hand you DO NOT write with) when you are starting to feel drained.

Emergency Relief: Drink rosemary tea or add large quantities of the loose herb to your bath to energy body repair and exhaustion.

Dream Break!

Do you need a good night's sleep? Then take a break from dreaming for a night. One note of caution though: use this sparingly as you need to dream in order to sustain good mental health.

Burn a few sprigs of Lemon Verbena before you go to bed. If you do not want to burn the herb, you can wear it around your neck, place inside your pillow or on a night stand.

Astral Ointment

Want some help flying when you astral travel? Let this astral ointment help!



1 oz. Mugwort oil

2 tsp. Poplar

2 oz. Hard Paraffin

2 oz. Soft Paraffin



Melt together and stir as it cools. Store in an airtight container. Apply to your body prior to astral travel.

Past Life Dreams

Want to dream about one or more of your past lives? Then let magic help you - just remember to write down your memories as soon as you awaken!

Supplies:

2 Quartz Crystals (Faden Quartz if you can find them), 2 Petrified Wood, Sandalwood, Fire-Proof Container, Spell Charcoal

Instructions:

Light the Spell Charcoal & put it inside the Fire-Proof Container. Sprinkle some Sandalwood over the Charcoal.

Place a Stone in altering fashion at the 4 Corners of your bed: i.e. Crystal, Wood, Crystal, Wood.

Lie on your bed and wait for the Sandalwood to stop burning.

As you drift off to sleep repeat to yourself:

I am visiting and remembering my past lives.

Write down everything you remember as soon as you wake up.

Insomnia Incense

Need some help falling asleep? Don't rely on pills, instead give this incense a shot!

Mix together equal amounts of: Henna, Sandalwood and Vetiver or Myrrh

Sprinkle some onto a lit spell charcoal and let your bedroom fill up with the scent.

Make sure the incense is out and enjoy some much needed rest.

Getting Laid Sachet

There are times when you aren't looking for a relationship - all you want is sex. Let this sachet help you attract the right partner!

Mix equal parts of Orange Blossoms, Mullein, Patchouly, Ginger and Orris Root. Place the Mixture into an Orange or Red Sachet (or the same colored cloth/string). Add a Carnelian and close the Sachet.

Gently massage the Sachet to activate it. Carry for 3 months (or until the need is no longer there - whichever comes 1st). Bury the herbs and carry the Carnelian for sexual energy.

Dollar Charm!

Need some extra cash? Let a dollar and its friends help you!

Take $1 (or your countries' equivalent) and place a pinch each of: Cinnamon, Basil & Allspice onto the center of the bill.

Fold the $1 up into a square. Place it into a Green Cloth, Sachet or a Bag (plastic sandwich bag will do).

Carry it with you for as long as you need to attract extra money. The spell will not last forever, but only for as long as you actually NEED (as opposed to want) the money.

Nutmeg Fidelity

Need to ensure your lover's fidelity? Let the nutmeg help you!

Cut a Nutmeg into exactly 4 pieces.

- Bury one part in the Earth or in a potted plant.
- Throw one off or your roof - out a window - off a hill into the air.
- Burn the third part in a non metal container, in the fireplace or bonefire.
- Boil the fourth part in water. Let the water cool and strain the nutmeg.
- Drink a sip of the nutmeg water and take this last piece of nutmeg with you everywhere - even under your pillow at night.

No one will tempt your mate.

Truth Awareness Tea!

Sometimes it's nice to give yourself a boast of psychic power before you tackle a problem! This is great to use just before you want to see if someone is telling you the truth or not!

Place a few tablespoons of Mugwort & a small Crystal in a Tea Ball & put the Tea Ball into your Mug/Cup.

Pour Boiling Water into the Mug/Cup and let the Mugwort/Crystal seep for 3 - 4 minutes.

Remove the Tea Ball and sweeten to taste (is a good idea to do as Mugwort is not very tasty).

Drink the Tea and pose your question -- but be ready to "hear" the truth!

Reverse Spell

Did your spells go better than planned - making you feel overwhelmed? Do you need people, places or things to chill back a bit? Try this Reverse Spell!

Rain Maker

Need some rain in your neck of the woods?

Build a contained fire outside. Once the fire is in full-swing, throw in a *handful of Fern and a handful of Heather.

Let the fire burn out.

*Amount of herbs are proportional to your fire. I.e: if you have a small fire, throw in a few pinches of each - if you have a bonfire, throw in several handfuls of each.

Solstice Magic!

The Summer Solstice is a very magical day! All spells cast on the solstice has an excellent intent of coming to pass because of the extra energy. Remember though to have intent & faith.

This solstice is especially keen for love - since it falls on the Friday, the day of love -- plus it still falls within the perimeters of a full moon (3 days before, 3 days after) and Mercury Retrograde is over!

Grab a new lover for summer!

The Best Day
Friday

Other Supplies Needed
Three Candleholders, One Fireproof Bowl (non-metal), One Charcoal Block

Preparation
• Gather supplies

• Carve “Your Name” into the WHITE candle, “Love” into the PINK candle, and “Attraction” into the ORANGE candle.

• Place each candle into your projective hand (right if right
handed – left if left handed) to empower it. Visualize your need; feel the emotions associated with it. Once you can no longer hold the image or feel the emotions, then the energy has moved from you into the candle. Empower “You” into WHITE candle, “Friendship” into the PINK candle, and “Stimulation” into the ORANGE candle.

• Anoint ALL CANDLES with the OIL. Starting in the middle of the candle, perform 9 strokes going up, then again starting in the middle of the candle, do 9 strokes going down. Never rub up and then down in the same motion.

• Roll ALL the candles in the POWDERED SUGAR.

• Place candles in their candleholders.

Activation
• Light CHARCOAL BLOCK, place in ONE FIREPROOF BOWL and burn INCENSE.

• Meditate on the desired outcome –clear your mind and focus on what you want to accomplish.

Take the WHITE candle and put it in the middle of your workspace. As you light it, recite:

Here is (your name),
This candle is me.
I am in search of,
True love and life-long mate.
As the fire burns, so burns my spirit.

Take the PINK candle, placing it next to the WHITE candle. As you light it, recite:

The respect and friendship,
I search for
Draws close with this flame.
It burns as does the fire draw,
him/her to me and from me to him/her.

From this moment forward
The love I search for reaches out to me
It holds me,
Caresses me,
Wills me to find it, as I will it to find me.

Finally, take the ORANGE candle and place it next to the WHITE candle. As you light it, recite:

My love feels the pull to find me,
As a nighttime creature flocks to a flame such as this,
The attraction is so great it cannot be resisted,
It draws, it pulls, it attracts,
As it burns, so burns my loves determination to find me.

Meditate on the goal of your love coming to you first as friends, then moving forward with him/her into a loving, committed relationship.

Once that goal has been visualized, the energy work has begun.

Give thanks to the Divine for its aid in this matter.

Let the candles burn down or for at least nine minutes. If you must extinguish the flame, do so with a snuffer as blowing will scatter the energy. Bury the wax.
