"Healthy Soil" Garden Spell
All gardeners want their plants to be healthy, abundant, and gorgeous. In order to achieve that, a lot of work has to happen. However, there’s nothing wrong with a little magick to help things along!
A good garden begins with good soil. In fact, good soil is the single most important aspect of any successful garden, its very foundation. The better your soil, the stronger and healthier your plants will be, and the more able to withstand pests and diseases.
This is a spell to ensure that the soil in your garden is healthy, nutritious, and absolutely right for whatever you plan to plant.

Then, read your list out loud.
After you have read your list out loud, use the flame of the candle to burn it, being careful that the flames and ashes remain safely in your container or on your length of aluminum foil.
When your list has burned completely, pour the ashes onto the soil, and thoroughly stir them into it with the spoon, while repeating the following at least three times:
Finally, take the pot to your garden and pour the soil and ashes in one of your beds.
