New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| Color of the day: Yellow
Incense of the day: Frankincense In the dreary days of late winter, this spell will give your spirit a lift. Cut several stems from a forsythia shrub. Select stems that have a large number of swollen leaf buds. Remove the buds and crush them to form a paste. Sprinkle the substance upon a small brass tray and let it dry in a sunny window. Once dry, light eight candles in colors representing the Sun-yellow, orange, or gold. Standing before the burning candles, crumble the dried buds into a small box or dish. Add a sprinkle of gold glitter and say: "The spirit never dies. The spirit lives." This magical powder which you have prepared can be added to any growth or prosperity spell. Leave the powder on your altar during the winter to remind you that during the dark season, the life-force of Mother Earth is not dead-only resting. |
