Spell to Banish Affection

Rather than a banishment for the affections of others, this spell is to stop yourself from developing feelings for someone else. This is especially helpful if you’re i a relationship and worried about straying, or know the person you’re crushing on is not a good fit.

Supplies:

Ash of roses

Damiana

Bonus: valerian for tea

Mix the ashes and damiana together, preferably ground into a powder. Damiana is a powerful herb for affairs of the heart. By mixing it with the ash of roses, its effects are reversed, negating attraction. Use the powder to draw the sigil below over your heart:

Recite the following before you sleep:

Building, burning, raw temptation, Deceiving with exhilaration, Quell this developing affection. Point me towards a chaste direction.

To ensure a tranquil mind and peaceful heart that will accept this change, drink some valerian tea after you say the spell. Valerian is pretty strong-tasting, but it’s a powerful relaxer.

Earth Spell: To Stop My Mind From Wandering (where it will go...)

A simple incantation to ground your thoughts and prevent them straying into undesired territory. Hoping this solves a personal issue of mine. If you have a subject in mind that you don’t want your thoughts to linger on, it’s best to recite the spell quietly in their/its presence.

Trains of thought derailing toward unwanted destinations Purge my mind of images unhealthy and salacious Root my focus to pursuits unquestionably real Waver not my appetites towards fantastic appeal

Thank you so much for your super quick answer! And yeah the text is visible now ^^ I do have a BoS but it’s fairly empty as I haven’t really practiced much yet. Do you happen to have a simple spell I could cast tonight or something that'd kinda "introduce" me? I haven't casted any spells so far because I was a bit afraid, but this seems like the perfect moment tbh... <3

Certainly! I always recommend writing your own spells, but here is a simple spell to hail the moon, which will bring its power down for you to access. I’d cast it just as the eclipse is beginning.

I’ll include this one, too. It’s to extend your awareness, which would help if you’re seeking to do any visualizations or divination tonight. 

Uncertain still though now decidedUpon the task my sight dividedTo view the deed inside and outLet my vision be focused and all about

Fertility Spell: A Call to Mother Freya

This spell is to be performed on the Friday (Freya’s Day) on or before the New Moon. Ideally, this will stimulate ovulation and fertilization to help you get pregnant.

Supplies: 

Red apple

Red candle

Knife (boline)

Twine or ribbon

Mugwort

Rose quartz

Moonstone

Small drawstring bag or cloth 

Slice the apple in half horizontally (the seeds should form a pentacle), then carve the rune Fehu into the center. Sprinkle with mugwort and put the apple back together, tying it shut. Place the stones in a bag or cloth. Charge both over a lit red candle while chanting the following:

Goddess Freya, true and fair, Far too long have I lain bare Grant my womb and honored guest, Swell my stomach and my breast My greatest wish bequeath to me Quicken the seed, so mote it be.

Bury the apple under the window to your bedroom. Place the stones with some mugwort in a bag or cloth and tuck it under your pillow. If you can, wear red to bed, sleep in red sheets, or tie a red ribbon to your underwear. Before you fall asleep that night, repeat the following ad nauseum:

Quicken the seed, so mote it be.

Note: This will (obviously) only have any effect if you also do the baby dance or undergo some kind of implantation/sperm donation. This spell will not spawn any messiahs.

Read My Palm

Spell a Day Challenge Day Two: Write a spell to aid someone in divination. Any method.  

So this is simply an incantation for when your lines aren’t clear to you and the person reading them may need a deeper insight. Palmistry is my strongest suit, so that’s what I chose to write a spell for. 

While your friend is holding your dominant hand in both of yours, recite the following to welcome them into your subconscious:

Hand to hand, connect and see The future, past, and present of me Delve deep through lines of uncertainty Red me through ancient palmistry

Quick witchy tip

Tuck a sprig of fresh basil over your heart for a boost in confidence. The scent will energize you, and you’ll have a steady pulse of confidence wherever you go.

Today I planted a tree for one of my drama students. It will be a gift for when he graduates in a couple years; hopefully by then it’ll be a strong sapling.

I chose an acorn to grow into an oak tree. Oaks promote balance, protection, success, and courage, which should be perfect for him when he strikes out on his own. I also planted a bloodstone above the acorn in the hopes that the tree will grow around it. Bloodstones (also known as heliotrope) are used to remove obstacles, promote vitality and talents, ward injury, and encourage good health and strength. I think paired with the oak it should provide some stability to his future.

I used a mixture of used coffee grounds, egg shells, and banana peel for fertilizer. Aside from all these being packed with nutrients, egg shells are often used for protection, banana ensures prosperity, and coffee gives an extra kick of energy, especially to earth magicks.
