LOVE
*Should be done during Waxing or Full Moon
The Hyacinth Spell
Purpose: to retrieve a loved one or gain the affections of a new love interest.
I get so many questions regarding this one so please read the following carefully: we should never try to force another to love us or to return to us as that would be a violation of their free will and a karmic no-no. If someone truly desires to be with us, however, but some minor obstacles hinder them from accomplishing said then this spell might help. It utilizes a combination of your own magickal energy in conjunction with the energy of a living organism (a plant) to heighten the potency. The precise purpose of this type of spell is to enhance the receptivity of your love interest to your feelings, desires and goals and to help them overcome minor obstacles - not to make someone love you or come back to you.
Theoretically, this spell may be performed with any type of bulb from a tulip to an onion, although I have found that hyacinth and onion bulbs are the most effective. I know, one would not normally expect a less than desirable smelling onion bulb to work, but it can! You need to research and find out how to properly care for the specific plant you decide to use. Please don't write to me asking for instructions on said.
Likewise, if your plant starts to die there could be several reasons for this. One, the plant may have been sickly when purchased. Two, you might not be following the directions for taking care of it adequately. To be honest, it is extremely rare that a plant will die as a way of saying, "This union is not meant to be!" Nonetheless, I have heard from time-to-time about a plant meeting its demise due to obsession. Obsession is never healthy for anyone or anything.
Plant the bulb in a new flower pot naming it your loved one as you do. If possible tape a picture of the desired one to the bottom of the pot and out of the view of others. If you do not have a photo you can write the person's name on a small piece of paper and tape that to the bottom instead. Each time you need to water the plant, chant these words:
As this root grows,
And this blossom blows,
May (name loved one) love and caring be turned to me!
As (his/her) will, so mote it be!
OR
As this root grows,
And this blossom blows,
May (name loved one) be free of obstacles and return to me!
As (his/her) will, so mote it be!
