IngredientsA bathLavender essential oil Jasmine essential oil An oil burner Seven green oak leaves (or basil, if oak is out of season) One purple candle One yellow candle Purple thread An envelope DescriptionWhy is it that some people can make friends as easily as blinking while others, try as they might, seem destined to a life of loneliness? If you are asked to a party, do you stand around like the proverbial wallflower while other seem to be engaged in happy conversations and the sound of everyone else's laughter fills the room? Or maybe your career is stuck in a rut as deep as a Concorde tyre mark in a muddy field? If you're thinking "That's Me!" about either of these scenarios, then maybe you are lacking in self-esteem. The following will help.
Spell CastingRun a warm (not hot) bath, and drizzle some of the lavender oil into the water. Float the leaves into the bath and climb in. Breathe in through your nose and hold your breath for a count of seven. Breathe out through your mouth for a count of seven, and then seven more. When you breathe in visualize that your lungs are filling up with warm, golden light. As you breathe out, see your frustrations in your breath and watch your anger, pain and any other barriers between you and the rest of the world leave you.Now, totally relaxed and at ease with yourself, visualize a spot of golden light above you. Watch it get bigger and bigger before it floats down and your body is enveloped in its warm glow. At this point, say the words that follow: "I have my mark to make, I have words to say. Let others hear the words I speak. And take self-doubt away. And it harm none, so be it." Repeat the words six more times and when you feel ready, leave the bath and snuff out the candles in the usual way. Thread the oak leaves onto the thread, hold them up to the light and repeat the words one more time. Now fold the leaves into the envelope and put it in your handbag or wallet. Whenever you have a bad day, first thing on the following morning, heat the jasmine oil in the burner, relight the candles and hold the leaves up to the flames, repeating the words seven times in all. You can then face the new day with confidence. When the leaves die, repeat the original spell and it won't be long before you are brimming with self-confidence and no longer have need of it. Magic spells for everyone, anytime, any occasion.
