Feeling down? You NEED to cast this spell for self love

Start the new year as you mean to go on by affirming your beauty, value and place in the world

You will need:

• An orange carnelian or amber crystal

• Lavender or rose essential oil, or your favourite fragrance in a small bowl

• A mirror

• A soft white cloth

Cast on any Friday when the natural light is its brightest, or if you are inside, light gold candles to reflect in the mirror.

1. Gaze into the mirror, saying ‘I look and see myself as I shall this year truly be, I take my place in the world confidently’.
2. Polish the mirror in clockwise circles, saying softly and continuously, ‘Beautiful, sassy, smart, talented the world will see, the true emerging me, anything I choose I can be’.
3. Now, still looking in the mirror, hold the carnelian to your solar plexus, your invisible but very real inner sun energy centre in the middle of your upper stomach, saying ‘This day I walk into my own light, I bring from within me my radiance bright. I call love, happiness, success, fulfilment, all shall be right’.
4. Dip the carnelian into the oil or fragrance, then with it touch the centre of your brow, above and between your eyes saying, ‘all I see’. Touch the base of your throat saying, ‘All I speak and know’. Touch each of your inner wrist points for your loving heart saying, ‘All I feel and desire, this year I shall make it so’.

5. Repeat the spell whenever you doubt yourself, or when others try to put you down, to remember your power of positivity.
