Fiery Love
Create or find a charred stick. You will also need a few dried rose petals & apiece of paper. Using the charred part of the stick as you would a pencil, draw two inter-linked hearts on paper as you visualize yourself enjoying a satisfying relationship. Draw with power. Hold the rose petals in your projective hand & send fiery, loving energies into them. Sprinkle the petals over the linked hearts. Do this with power. Wrap the package around the petals. Still visualizing, throw the package into a fire. (Or, light it in the flame of a red candle & throw into a heat proof container.)
To Gain Love
BEST TIME: Waxing Moon The cauldron should be on your altar between 2 pink candles. Inside the cauldron itself, place a magenta candle. Light a love incense and the Pink candles. Tap the cauldron three times with your wand. Say:
One to seek him, one to find him.
One to bring him, one to bind him.
Heart to heart, Forever one
So say I, this spell is done.
Tap the cauldron three more times. Light the magenta candle to speed the spell on its way.
To Bring Out The Love of Another
This is an interesting spell. It does not interfere with another's free will. All it does is give them the courage to state what is on their mind. It is done when you feel very strongly that the person is in love with you but that they hesitate to say so. If it turns out that they are not in love with you after all, then it simply won't work, so that's why it doesn't exert undue pressure. This should be done at the same hour on seven consecutive Fridays, ending on the one closest to the Full Moon (before the moon reaches full, not just after). Take a pink candle and mark six rings around it, at equal distances apart. This will give you seven sections of a candle. Light the candle and call out the name of the one you think loves you. Then say:
Gana, be with me in all that I do.
Gana, please bring me a love who is true.
Give him (her) the strength to put into words
His (her) feelings, and sing like the song of the
birds.
Think about the person for a few moments - think of them coming to you and declaring their love then repeat the chant. Keep doing this until the candle has burned down to the first line. Then extinguish the candle (by pinching it out, never by blowing) and put it away till next week. On the final week, keep it up until the candle burns itself out. As it burns, the power is released.
To Draw A Lover To You
Here again, it's not a case of drawing a specific person to you. Rather, this magick is to draw "someone" to you. No names, though you can certainly specify the type of person, e.g., "a dark, six-footer, with a sense of humor and an interest in hang-gliding," or whatever. The two favorite semiprecious "stones" of the Gypsies are jet and amber. Of course neither one is truly a stone. Jet is an organic product: bituminous coal that can be polished. Amber is the fossilized, hardened resin of the pine tree Pinus succinifera, formed during the Bocene period (about 50 million years ago). For this spell you need a piece of amber, and it should (for best results) be a piece with an insect inclusion. If not available, then any piece if amber can be used. This should be done on a Friday, first thing in the morning when you rise and before you do anything else. Take a piece of amber and hold it in your (closed) left hand. Hold the hand over your heart, close your eyes, and concentrate your thoughts on the type of person you want to attract to you. See him or her in as much detail as you can: height, weight, eye and hair coloring. Think of the interests, sports, activities, you would like them to have. Then see the two of you together, walking hand in hand. Now kiss the amber and place it in a piece of pink or red silk and wrap it up securely. Carry that with you at all times for the next seven days, sleeping with it under your pillow. Every morning repeat the holding and visualizing, though hold it still wrapped in the silk; don't unwrap it. By the seventh day you will have met something just like the person you have been wishing for.
To Attract a Lover
This is when you have a lover but he or she is not as attentive as you would wish. You know they love you but…. Sit before a dying fire and gaze into it, clearing your mind of all but thoughts of your lover. Have a small basket of laurel leaves between your knees. Keeping your gaze fixed on the fire, dip your left hand into the basket, take out a handful of leaves, and toss them onto the fire. As the burst into flames, chant out loud the following:
"Laurel leaves that burn in the fire,
Draw unto me my heart's desire."
Wait until the flames have died down, then repeat the action. Do it a third time. Within 24 hours your lover will come to visit you.
To Rid Yourself of an Unwanted Lover
Some people are wooed by persistent would-be lovers, those who won't take no for an answer and who won't leave them alone. This is the ideal spell for such a situation. It should be done during the waning cycle of the Moon - that is, after the Full Moon and before the New Moon. Have a roaring fire going, then go outside and pick up two handfuls of dry vervain leaves (you can place them on the ground ahead of time, if necessary.) As you pick them up, shout out the name of the one you wish to be rid of. Turn and go into the house (or cross to the fire if this is all done out in the open) and fling leaves onto the fire with the words:
"Here is my pain;
Take it and soar.
Depart from me now
And offend me no more."
Do this for three nights in a row. You will hear no more from the unwanted ones.
Good Riddance!
Here is another good spell for getting rid of an unwanted suitor. Take a small square of paper and write on it the name of the annoying would-be lover. Use black ink for this. Many Gypsies also say that it is best to use one of the old "dip" pens and ink, rather than a modern ballpoint, but you could experiment.Let the ink dry; don't blot it. Then light a white candle and burn the piece of paper in its flame while thinking of the person running away from you. Catch the ashes in something (burning the paper over an ashtray is a good idea) and carry them out to a hillside (you can do this by putting them in a small plastic bag). There you must place the ashes on the upturned palm of your right hand and hold it up, saying:
Winds of the North, East, South and West,
Carry these affections to where they'll be best
Let her/his heart be open and free
And let her/his mind be away from me.
Then blow on the ashes so that they scatter to the winds.
River of Dreams
Another way to determine whom you will marry is to use a bowl of water and a flat stick. The bowl should be earthenware and should be filled at least half full of water that has been taken from a flowing stream. A flat stick or piece of wood is then laid across the bowl, from one edge to the other. This represents a bridge over a river or stream. On the night of a Full Moon, place the bowl of water and stick underneath your bed. Just before you sleep, concentrate your thoughts on an actual footbridge over a stream. Tell yourself that you will dream of it that night. Not only will you dreams of the bridge, but you will dream of yourself crossing the bridge and, halfway over, falling off into the water. But you have no fear, someone will come and rescue you. With these expectations, built up in your mind throughout the day and then reinforced just before you sleep, you should have no trouble actually having that dream. The trick then is to remember when you wake who it was who came to your rescue and pulled you from the water. That person is your future spouse.
Wedding Day
This old custom for finding whether or not you will be married within the coming year is performed on New Year's Eve. The inquirer takes an old shoe and throws it up in to the branches of a willow tree. If the shoe of falls to the ground again, there will be no wedding within 12 months. But if it catches in the branches and does not fall, then there will be a wedding within the year.
