Golden Moon - A Spell for Opportunities

This is a spell to make you receptive to opportunities which are within your reach. It has been in my Book of Shadows for about ten years and as I am currently revamping said book, I thought it was time to revamp the spell too.

You will need:

• 2 Mirrors
• 3 orange candles
• A length of orange cord
• Honesty seeds

Instructions:

1.          Place the mirrors opposite each other so that one mirror reflects a moonbeam back into the other.

2.        Take one of the candles and warm it so that you can scratch your initials at the op of the warm wax.

3.        Stand midway between the mirrors with the candles around you, so that you can see your initials on the candle.

4.       Light the candles and return to your place, holding the orange cord in your right hand and the honesty seeds in your left.

5.        Stand in the beam of moonlight and absorb its energy while the candles burn and free the letters of your name.

6.        Turn seven times, clockwise, trailing the cord around you to gather the moonbeams about your body.

7.        Open yourself to all receive all that comes your way; then, retire and sleep with the honesty seeds under your pillow.

8.        Bury them the next day.

This spell is to open you up to opportunities so I feel it necessary to prepare for those opportunities, to be ready and balanced to accept them. For this reason, I added an incense blend to the spell – my ‘Reset Incense’ is charged to rebalance your energy so that when the opportunities come, you can be open to them. I light the incense once the mirrors are in position and let it burn until the end of the spell.

Incense Blend
The amount of each ingredient used can be altered for your specific needs (e.g. if you feel your magickal energy is specifically waning, use more carnation in the incense and tailor the colour of the carnation to correspond to that).

• Black pepper (Mental alertness)
• Carnations (protection; strength; healing; vitality; physical energy, love, health, magickal energy)
• Frankincense (spirituality; protection; banishing of negative entities; consecration; meditation)
