Basil & Cinnamon Love Amulet

Basil & Cinnamon Love Amulet

Should be done on a Friday during a waxing moon

Needed:

Large, flat plate

Small picture of yourself

Ground cinnamon

Dried basil

Ceramic or glass bowl

Pink houshold or taper candle

Small piece of pink cotton cloth

Pink yarn or cord

Hold the candle between your hands & envision yourself as a loving, giving person. Fill yourself with feelings of love & sensuality. Infuse those feelings into the candle and then place it in its holder. Light the candle.

Place the plate before the candle. Put the small picture of yourself in the middle of the plate. Pour a small circle of ground cinnamon on the plate around the picture & say:

"Love surrounds me."
Pour a larger circle of basil around the ring of cinnamon, saying once again:
"Love surrounds me."
Now pour a third, larger circle of cinnamon around the basil and say once again:
"Love surrounds me."

Hold your hands, palms down, over the three herb circles and your picture for a few moments. Sense the energies that are rising from the herbs. Raise energy. Visualize again what you want the talisman to accomplish. Carefully pour the herbs and the picture into the bowl. Place your hands into the bowl

and mix the herbs with your fingers, infusing them with your personal energy as you do so and saying these words or something similar:

" Spice and herb, Plant and tree:
send someone to love only thee.
Love we shall share,Equally
As is my will & desire, So mote it be!"

Pour the spices and the picture into the center of the pink cloth. Gather up ends and tie them shut with the pink yarn. Place the love talisman beside the candle. Let sit there for at least 15 minutes or so as you concentrate on what you want it to accomplish for you then pinch out the candles flame.

Burn the candle for at least 7 minutes at approximately the same time each day and carry the talisman with you to attract appropriate love. It is best to make another talisman or recharge this one about every 6 months or so.
