As the school year comes to a close and summer is upon us, many people embark on vacations. Traveling can be a wonderful experience, whether you go by yourself or with others, looking for adventure or for relaxation. Here’s a simple spell to help things go smoothly, no matter what kind of trips you take.

Place a symbol of your journey (this can be anything from a picture of where you’re going to a toy car or plane) in front of a white candle in a firesafe candleholder or dish. Put a large square of aluminum foil under the candleholder, making sure the piece is large enough to put at least partially around your symbol. Then say the following while gently pulling up the foil so it surrounds the candle and your symbol like a low wall. (Snuff out the candle when done.)

Protection like a bubble,
To keep the journey smooth.
Safe travels without trouble,
All obstacles remove.
