Sweet Dreams

To help you sleep peacefully and have pleasant dreams, create a tranquil and calming environment for your bedroom. The windows should have either curtains or walls that are light colored or pastel tones and make sure the bed head is well away from the door.  Cleanse the atmosphere of your room by holding a sprig of lavender and walking through the room with a peaceful mind and heart.  At bedtime turn off everything in the room that could be distracting or disturbing, like television and loud music or radios.  Put a lavender sachet under your pillow and before go to sleep say to yourself,

    "Feather light on starry night, cozy warm and tired, pleasant dreams and sweetest thoughts as little angels smile."

Blowing in the Wind

Lovely breezes and windy days can be used to connect with the magical element of Air and this magick charm is one that anyone can easily do for themselves and their friends. On a breezy day, find a piece of blue material or ribbon and tie one end to a fence, a tree branch or a clothesline.  Then, as you watch the ribbon fly and wave in the wind, repeat these words out loud,

    "Blow laughing winds from North and South, from fairy lands and East to West, I'll be happy as I say send me magic every day,"
You can leave the ribbon there for as long as you like and add any others to it for a magickal message to family and friends.

Awaken the Magick!

Before you begin any spell, make sure you take time to meditate on positive thoughts and loving energy, check your ego and pride at the door by saying three times,"I now let go of all intolerance, self pity and vanity, and I cast my spell in the name of Good. Blessed be."




SPELL

To help you awaken your inner magick you can cast this easy spell.

Start by gathering together the following items:
  • an empty notebook (you will call this your Magickal Diary)
  • and a blue pen
Then, on the day or evening of the moon (Monday) take a bath or shower first to help cleanse and purify your aura and after you get dressed in some clean comfortable clothes, find a quiet place in your home where you can be undisturbed for at least half an hour and place the notebook and pen onto a table or a flat surface and sit down nearby.
Close your eyes for a few moments while you take deep relaxing breaths and imagine that you feel and see a white light surrounding you and filling you with a feeling of peace and happiness.
Next, open your eyes and then open the first page of the notebook and with your pen draw the shape of a square or rectangle on the page and look into the square while you imagine that this is a doorway and it is opening up and you are stepping through the door.
Let yourself relax and feel happy and uplifted as you imagine that your mind is stepping through that doorway into a sunny garden that is full of your favorite plants and flowers, (you may even see some fairies and unicorns there too) and let yourself stay in that enchanted place and have fun imagining for a while as you say these words,
    "To the left and right of me, Above and below me, I awaken the spirit of nature and magick within me."
When you feel you are ready, let your mind come back through the door and close the notebook and say
    "I am a wonderful child of the Universe, and so will it be."
When you finished your spell, you can write the words, My Magickal Diary, or whatever words you like on the front cover and keep this book as your enchanted workbook for spells and wishes.

Dream of Me


Materials Required:

White cotton fabric
Bedding or cotton to use as a stuffing
Parchment paper
Lavender
Rosemary
Needle and thread

 



Method:

You will need to make a small dream pillow in order to have this spell carried out. For this you need to first cut two bits of cotton fabric and sew up three sides of the rectangle or square. If you choose your pillow to be circular, then you sew the whole thing around, leaving a little at the bottom in order to fill up the pillow. Then turn the cloth upside down and stuff the pillow with bedding or cotton. At the end of the filling remember to put in the rosemary and lavender as well. Using the needle and thread sew up the remaining of the pillow.

Then write the name of the person whom you want to perform the spell on and also state exactly what you want them to dream of you. Then prepare an altar and cast a circle around the altar. Once this is done, place yourself at the center and hold the dream pillow in your hands, place the parchment on the pillow and say the following spell:

Blessed Mother, Holy Goddess
Send (name of the person) a dream
And awaken his/her mind
Carry my voice far and galore
To the place where even sleep lays ashore
Send him/her this message loud and clear
This is not just a prayer mere.

The incantation can be changed in a way to match your preference.
