Prepare: * Pen, pencil, or paintbrush depending on the art form. * Elmer's glue * Silver glitter * Almond, sage, or vanilla essential oil * A white candle This is a simple spell to bring you divine inspiration to write and create visual art. Anoint the candle with the essential oil you have chosen and using an athame or a small, sharp tool, inscribe the name "Brighid" (goddess of poetic inspiration), or if you prefer not to invoke a deity, simply inscribe your art form which you need inspired in. Light your candle and begin. Squeeze some glue onto a piece of scrap paper and dip the end (not the usable part) of your craft tool (pencil, paintbrush, or whatever) into it, covering about an inch's worth. Then roll the end in the glitter so that it is completely covered. As you do, focus on the inspiration you seek. Say your own blessing over the tool, then situate it so that it can dry without the glittered end getting smashed. The next day, make a few attempts at your art with your newly enchanted tool in hand. Let the inspiration come to you and flow from your mind to your material!

To Get a Break in Show Business from The Modern Witch's Spellbook, by Sarah Lyddon Morrison. Find an old piece of amber with a fly in it (you can find such things at antique shops) and wear it to auditions. Chant over the amber first: "Fame come to me, change my luck for me." Imagine yourself on a stage or in a movie or doing whatever it is that will make you famous, and put powerful emotion behind it. A break should come along within a short period if you've done the spell correctly.

You will need the following: A lionhead charm (buy or make one) Yellow candle Essential oil of rose, orange, or hazel Buy, or make, a charm that resembles a lion's head. (It can be as simple as you want it to be as long as you know what it is.) Pass it three times through the flame of a yellow candle, meditating on your esteem and the respect you truly deserve. Then infuse the charm with your energy by anointing it with the oil. Wear it (on a chain or in your pocket, wherever!) on you, and when you see or touch it, you will feel your confidence build within you. I know it's hard to find a lion's head charm, and you may wonder what the easiest way would be to make one. I would suggest taking a flat, smooth stone, clean it off, and use either orange paint or a thin permanent orange marker to draw a simple lion head on it. This way it will be fire-proof, and you can keep it in your pocket.

Prepare: * A dish full of earth (good soil, not dry, dusty dirt). * A yellow candle A full sized mirror * Olive, patchouli, jasmine, or cinnamon essential oil * A small flower pot * A flower or plant seed Anoint the candle with the essential oil you have chosen. Place it in the center of the dish of earth. Light it and sit down with it between you and a mirror. Look deeply into the mirror, concentrate on your reflection. Without being vain, consider the things you find most beautiful about yourself- not just physically but mentally. What is your inner beauty, what is your outer beauty? It's important that you never think of what you feel must be "changed", be as positive about the beauty that you have already. Perform this ritual 3 nights in a row. Once the entire candle has burnt down, remove the wax from the dish. Place the earth from the dish inside a small flower pot and plant a seed inside it. Water it and care for it so that it grows properly. You will soon find that your beauty will grow, flourish, and shine brighter than ever before- just as the plant grows before you, emerging from its seed.

You will need: * A piece of white cardboard (large enough for you to sit on) * A blue pen The best time to cast this spell is on a monday night at seven o'clock. Begin by taking a bath or shower. After drying yourself thoroughly, remain undressed and go into a private room in your home where you will be undisturbed. Put the piece of cardboard on the floor and draw on it a large circle in a clockwise direction with the blue pen. Then stand within the circle, raise your arms into the air and take a few deep breaths. After you have done this, seat yourself in the center of the circle and repeat these words: "By the power of the number, By the power of Fortuna, All who sit within this circle shall prosper." Now write the numbers 7, 11, 9 on the cardboard (in a triangular fashion, not in a row) and finish off with these words: "The circle is cast, The magic will last -- So be it." Keep the circle in a safe place and sit in it whenever you have to make a decision (that your success depends on).

You will need: * a green candle * a purple candle * a talisman with your religious symbol (pentacle, cross, star of David, etc) Place a green candle on one side of a room. Place a purple candle on the other side. Now, light the purple candle. (The lights should now be off or very dim.) With your religious talisman hanging from a chain or string (to be worn as a necklace) dangling from your right hand, pick up the purple (lit) candle with your right hand. Now walk in a STRAIGHT line across the room directly to the green candle. Using the purple one, light the green candle. Set down the candle so they sit next to each other. Chant, "I walk forth without doubt and fear, And success draws me near." Lay the necklace in front of it and meditate for awhile on the success you need. Let the candles burn themselves down, and wear the necklace whenever you wish success you follow you. When you walk through a door to job interviews, auditions, or anywhere you need success, imagine how you walked in a straight line in your ritual, and consciously make an effort to do the same when passing through the door.

A spell to open the third eye (psychic sight) goes as follows. Fill a small purple bag (or a piece of cloth that you can wrap herbs in and tie up) with as many of the following herbs as you can: * mugwort * acacia * honeysuckle * peppermint * rosemary * thyme * yarrow * cloves * dandelion * lilac * lavender * calendula Gather the edges of the cloth and tie a string around it if you are using a cloth, or if you used a small purple bag, tie it shut. (Drawstring bags work best.) Using a dark violet marker, draw an eye on the front of the bag. Rub the bag on the third eye chakra (forehead) whenever performing divination or needing psychic sight, and sleep with it under your pillow every night.

Perform this ritual to improve psychic powers three days before the moon is full, and preferably when it is in either the astrological sign of Cancer, Pisces or Scorpio. Begin by brewing a strong magickal tea made from yarrow or mugwort (herbs that stimulate the psychic senses) and then light thirteen purple colored votive candles to help attract psychic influences. Drink the tea and then gaze fixedly into a magick mirror, black bowl full of water, crystal ball, or crystal pyramid as you chant thrice the following incantation: "I invoke thee, oh Asarial, Archangel of Neptune And ruler of clairvoyant powers. I ask thee now to open my third eye And show me the hidden light. Let me see the future. Let me see the past. Let me perceive the divine Kingdoms of the unknown. Let me understand the wisdom Of the mighty universe. So mote it be!" After chanting, relax, breathe slowly and concentrate on opening your Third Eye. Do not permit any negative thought to contaminate your mind. The Third Eye, an invisible chakra located in the middle of the forehead above the space between the eyebrows, is the human body’s highest source of power, supernormal sight and clairvoyant vision.

This is a version of a rite by an unknown author which involves transferring one's 'essence' to another form, such as a rainbow, an animal, another person, a cloud, even a tree. In this case, you move your perception to a cloud. You will need: An open space Dry ice Passivity Open by whatever means feels appropriate. (You might just cast a circle.) Set the dry ice in the center of the working area. Participants circle deosil around the ice, chanting "Ka-ao-opua-loa" (the sharp-pointed living cloud). In the Hawaiian legends, this was the name of the kupua of the cloud people. Circling and chanting continue for 10-15 minutes, at the end of which all sit down in a circle as close to the ice as possible. All stare into the fog rising from the ice until tunnel vision sets in (the field of vision goes black except for the object focused upon). At the moment that tunnel vision occurs, say: "As below, so above The cloud is in my eye Ka-ao-opua-loa carry my sight" Participants begin spinning at increasing speed with eyes closed, all the while repeating: "Tenfemet-Douck". When spinning is no longer possible, partcipants lie on their backs and open the eyes completely (no squinting) and focus on the first cloud they see. All repeat: "As above, so below My eye is in the cloud Phenomenize the cloud-eye" Visualize a fog exactly like that rising from the dry ice leaving the eyes and rushing up to join with the clouds. Observe it entirely passively, and with the inner voice repeat: "This self is Tenfemet-Douck, The cloud that sees." When tunnel vision again sets in, close the eyes and open them again quickly. Look down over the terrain that passes below your cloud-eye. Note details if desired, but do not attempt to influence direction or speed of motion. All control of these should be left to the wind. When you have achieved your desired results, switch out of the passive mode and attempt to influence direction or speed. Find yourself back in your human body looking up at the clouds. Banish by laughter, and leave the circle.

You will need the following: * Small Seashell * Orange Candle * Cinnamon Powder * Dried and Crushed Rose Petals * Small Mixing Bowl Light an orange candle, then take a small seashell and pass it three times through the flame. As you do this, say: "By the power of three, So make it be." ...each time you go through the flame. Take a handful of cinnamon and using a spoon and bowl, mix it with dried and crushed red rose petals. Sprinkle the shell with some of the mixture and imagine yourself attracting many different people. Take the rest of the mixture and toss it into the wind to carry your request to the God and Goddess. Then carry the shell with you in a pocket or purse at all times.
