Description


You have to really love and appreciate yourself. If you want anybody else to love and appreciate you, that's where it starts. It doesn't start from meeting someone to fill in the missing parts of yourself. So you want to embrace and love yourself. This is a spell taken from a Wiccan Love Spell video on YouTube ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKYaruKA05I )

Spell Casting

First, place a photograph of yourself when you were a child in the center of your altar. Then sit in front of it and you remember who that kid was, and the things that you really loved doing; and you open your heart, and you give to that child, all the things the child needed and didn't get. Whether it was affirmation, or affection, or expressions of love, or opportunities to spend more time with your parents; whatever that was, you go back and you essentially relive those key moments, and you - now, as the grown up you - take the roll of the adult, or the person who could provide those things. You can write it out; put it in your magical journal.

What you're doing is a symbolic enactment. One of the best ways to do a love spell for yourself is a bath; because water is the element of love.
So you go to the kitchen cabinet and you pull out a number of ingredients. And you can put them in a white handkerchief, or a red piece of cloth. Red: symbol of love, passion, desire; which you need for yourself.

Grab some cinnamon, then lavender, which is very relaxing. Then add some rosemary and some peppermint which is great for cleansing and purification. After you put that in, go to your tea cabinet, and you pull out a tea bag. Open it up, and add it to the mixture of herbs.

And what you want to do is use your nose; because the artistry of spell casting is very sensual. If you want to grind them together, you would grind it in a clockwise manner, Using a mortar and pestle, but you may also use the butt end of a knife.

Grind them together; put them back in the cloth; tie it up with a little pink ribbon, or a red ribbon; and run a warm bath. Then dump in the herbs and then soak. You can also add candles; red and pink will do to represent love.

When you get out of the bath, look yourself in the mirror and tell that child that you love them.
