			<title>National Stop Bullying Day</title>
			<link>http://www.llewellyn.com/spell.php?spell_id=10176</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Bullying has long been a problem. Thankfully it is no longer a deep, dark personal secret. These days you will find countless blogs, podcasts, and articles on the topic, and there are support groups online and in person. Let's get our Crafty Witch activated and create a poppet that can be utilized by you or given to someone who needs it.Select a raw potato that reminds you of the bully in your life. Purchase it and take it home. Wash the potato and let it dry in the sun all day. In the evening, draw a face and body on the potato with a waterproof Sharpie. Recite by moonlight:Bully, bully, bully, Your days of bothering me are no more. I cast you on this day out of my sphere, No more, no more, no moreI bid you adieu. Using a shovel, bury the poppet in soil. As you wash your hands, acknowledge that you are purged of the bothersome bully. Repeat this on the next full moon if necessary.]]></description>

			<title>Encouraging Dreams</title>
			<link>http://www.llewellyn.com/spell.php?spell_id=10175</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Whether you believe dreams are divinely sent, omens from the Otherworld, messages from your subconscious, or your brain processing leftover mind garbage, they have always fascinated human beings. Plenty of herbs are associated with dreaming and encouraging dreams. Lavender, mugwort, and yarrow may be the best-known and most widely used ones in modern witchery. A quick online search will help you find plenty more, including rosemary, clary sage, passionflower, burdock, chamomile, and peppermint.To encourage dreams, add the following ingredients to a 3-by-3-inch muslin drawstring bag (or get fancy and sew a sachet): one teaspoon each of dried lavender, oregano, mugwort, and chamomile and two tablespoons of rice. Pull the bag shut and place it under your pillow. Give it a squeeze now and then to release the aromas. Note: If lavender is too strong of a scent for you, substitute dried rose petals or lemon balm.]]></description>

			<title>New Destinies</title>
			<link>http://www.llewellyn.com/spell.php?spell_id=10174</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Today is Indigenous People's Day (previously known as Columbus Day). Indigenous peoples have taken back their power and reclaimed this day in honor of their accomplishments. In a similar vein, we can change or redirect our own destiny toward a more prosperous future. To do so, create a sacred space by channeling your energy into a protective circle. Once complete, gather your thoughts about how you would like your future to manifest. Take a piece of paper and a pen and write down where you are currently. Then write down where you want to be after you establish the change you wish to see. Draw symbols of transformation and prosperity around your desired change. Keep this paper under an altar tile or other object on your altar until you have created your new destiny.]]></description>

			<title>Good Health Charm</title>
			<link>http://www.llewellyn.com/spell.php?spell_id=10173</link>
			<description><![CDATA[For this spell you will need three objects that correspond to healing, such as fresh mint, a quartz or amethyst, a caduceus charm, a bit of willow bark, etc. (In a pinch, you could even draw three healing symbols on a piece of paper.) You will also need something to wrap them in to create a pouch (such as a cotton tea bag, a swatch of cloth, or a piece of paper to fold them in) and something to seal the pouch. To create the charm, gather your materials and ground and center. Look at each of the items and think about their significance. Place the cloth/paper on the ground so that you can easily place the items inside. Pick up the first item and say:I add (name of item) to promote good health. Do this for each item until the mojo is full. Then seal the mojo (by tying or otherwise closing the pouch) and say:Health brought, health bring, to whoever holds thee. So must it be. Carry this charm to gently support your health.]]></description>

			<title>Invoking Sacred Balance</title>
			<link>http://www.llewellyn.com/spell.php?spell_id=10172</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Today's new moon occurs in Libra. At this time the moon is not visible, as it is hidden behind the sun. With both of the great luminaries in Libra, all the light of the intellect (sun) and emotions (moon) is focused on balance, peacekeeping, negotiating, and harmony, all higher Libra functions. Libra's lower functions include codependence, placing others' opinions before yours, and staying silent to keep the peace.Hold your hands out to the sides with palms up, resembling the glyph of Libra, the scales of justice. Turn within to your quiet calm. Ask:Do I embody peace or keep the peace through self-compromise? Do I communicate fully, without silencing myself or others? Am I empowered intellectually and emotionally, without disempowering others? Where do I need more sacred balance? Invoke sacred balance. It will grow as the moon waxes this cycle.]]></description>

			<title>Bibliomancy for Balance</title>
			<link>http://www.llewellyn.com/spell.php?spell_id=10170</link>
			<description><![CDATA[This divination can help you ascertain what changes need to be made in order to bring balance to your life. Choose a book that has special meaning for you. It can be a sacred text or magick book or perhaps a favorite novel or even a comic book that you like a lot. Hold the book in your hands and ask, "What do I need more of in my life?" With your eyes closed, open to a random page and let your index finger land somewhere on the page. Open your eyes and read the word or phrase your finger is pointing to. Then close the book and ask, "What do I need less of in my life?" Open the book again and point to a place on the page, then interpret the message. The message could be literal or symbolic. Open your heart and listen with your spirit. Then think of some action steps that you can take to regain balance based on the messages you received.]]></description>

			<title>Body Positivity Spell</title>
			<link>http://www.llewellyn.com/spell.php?spell_id=10168</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Today is National Plus Size Appreciation Day, which is all about promoting self-love, compassion, confidence, and body-positivity. We recognize the beauty of people of all shapes and sizes and eschew society's stigmas. All you need for this spell is your body and a favorite anointing oil or perfume. If possible, start by taking a luxurious bath or shower, allowing time to pamper and appreciate your body. Once you are dried off, gently anoint yourself with the oil:I love my feet that connect me to the earth. (feet)I love my hands that hold the world. (palms)I love my belly, the cauldron of my being. (navel)I love my heart, holder of my passions. (sternum)I speak love with my lips. (lips)I see beauty with my eyes. (eyelids)I honor the temple of this spirit. (forehead)]]></description>

			<title>Do Something Nice Day</title>
			<link>http://www.llewellyn.com/spell.php?spell_id=10167</link>
			<description><![CDATA[The energy you send out returns to you multiplied. So when you do something nice for a stranger or friend and you do it with a feeling of true generosity and compassion, you will set in motion waves of blessings from both seen and unseen sources.Today, do something small, but fill it with big love. A classic example is to buy coffee for the person after you in line at the coffee shop, but you might also bake cookies and share them with neighbors, buy flowers for a partner or coworker, or take a young family member shopping for a new pair of jeans. Whatever you choose to do, as you do it, envision and feel the bright light of love coming from infinity and the core of the earth, entering both your feet and the crown of your head, meeting at your heart, and flowing out in abundance to the heart of the recipient and across the surface of the world.]]></description>
