Gold the glitter on the key
Three the tap awaken thus
Rouse the power of Venus!
Lodestone, draw the luck to me
As I will, so mote it be!
Create the physical charm, fashioning it in the way you desire, incorporating the key, lodestone, and symbols into something you can carry. On the new moon, sprinkle with the Lucky Louie herbal powder or place your drawing charm in a red or golden bag along with the raw herbals. Empower and carry with you for luck. Renew every new moon or re-empower each month for six months with apple-scented spray.
Recommended candle color: red
Mega Money Draw
peppermint, buckwheat hull, bladderwrack, orange peel
This is a great powder to use in rolled beeswax candles or in money drawing soap.
Money Draw
allspice, patchouli, peppermint, galangal, ginger, sassafras, sarsaparilla, blue vervain, yellow dock, marigold petals, lavender, a magnet, 3 golden nails
Use in conjuring bags to draw money to you. Dress candles and your wallet with the powder. Place herbal formula in an earthen jar along with dirt from three profitable banks and your name. Feed the jar with coins every new moon. When the jar is full, give the change to charity or someone who needs it.
Spirits of Venus and Jupiter, spirits of the sun and Mercury,
I call forth your gifts of wealth, positive abundance, good fortune,
and prosperity. Swift and golden, may the success of the sun, the
attraction of Venus, the blessings of Jupiter, and the speed of
Mercury encompass me this day with ever-growing success.
May my accounts, purse, house, and wallet be full and overflowing with prosperity in tangible form. Money
comes to me easily. So mote it be!
Recommended candle color: use both green and gold
Move Along
banishment of bad neighbors, a gossip, or the common sociopath
hot peppers, black pepper, curry, marjoram,vervain, ginger, dill, ghost peppers, Dead Sea salt, cinnamon, 3 drops fire element fluid condenser
A better place you find today
Karma dictates which the way.
I break your claim upon my field
The pipeline closed, new way revealed
I cut your ties from me to thee
You move off and I be free.
A better place you find today
Karma dictates which the way.
The psycho neighbor who always complains about you to the authorities…the person at work who spreads gossip and tries to ruin your career…the employee who is milking the system, leaving you with all the work (that’s killing you) but who is related to your boss…the person who you know isn’t right in the head and the damage is causing great distress in your life: that is what this powder is all about. You don’t want to hurt anyone, and you wish they would be happier somewhere else; perhaps there they will find the healing they need and not at your expense. Too often we try to micromanage spells, trying to guide the way of another’s life path. This charm is for those situations where you just give it up to the universe.
You can also truncate this charm by using only the first two lines in a repetitive singsong fashion. Another way to use the blend is to encircle a citronella or lemon verbena candle with the herbs. Burn the candle in the hour of Mars for three days.
Peace
lavender, lemon peel, violet, orris, cardamom, frankincense, bergamot, basil, copal
Peace I ask thee, O universe
I embrace the light from the heavens
I embrace the light from the earth
I embrace the light of Spirit
I accept the joy of rebirth!
Wrap the herbal formula in a small piece of white cloth and carry with you or scatter powder on both front and back doorsteps of the home.
Recommended candle color: white or light blue
Protection
cedar, rosemary, cinquefoil, marjoram, yarrow flowers, dill, blue cohosh, African violet flowers
You can’t see me
You can’t find me
You can’t hurt me anymore!
Scatter on the doorstep and in front (on the outside) of every window of the house on the lower level of the home. On upper levels, open window and rub against the outer sill. Turn one mirror in the house toward the wall and rub the herb formula on the back of the mirror. Leave the mirror turned inward for as long as you feel necessary; some practitioners keep it that way at all times.
Recommended candle color: dark blue
Psychic Shield
larkspur, white sage, rosemary, angelica, hyssop, clove, lemon verbena, black salt
Designed for those who are feeling like they are under psychic attack. I originally created the formula to protect individuals who love haunted places from the unseen (whatever it may be). A friend of mine does ghost tours in Gettysburg, so I made a round bundle with the above ingredients and dressed the bag with violet essential and lemon verbena liquid fluid condenser. The bundle was tied with white cord and white feathers as well as a piece of amethyst.
Recommended candle color: white or purple
Queen of Heaven/Goddess Blessing Formula
baby powder, grapefruit seeds or dried peel, sandalwood
To be used anytime you wish to invoke the Mother Goddess.
Holy Mother, she who orchestrates the stars
Who loves unconditionally, who heals all—
Embrace my petitions with love and light
And bring grace and happiness to those who ask for thy help.
Whether bright the day or dark the night
The Mother’s love will set things right.
Recommended candle color: white
Release Negativity
lavender, rose, lilac, carnation
I blend with the spirit of the universe. I release my feelings of anxiety, hatred, insecurity, and emotional pain and attachment from my mind, body, heart, and soul. I am one with the universe accepting the change I desire, and I am joy!
I initially made this formula in candle form, with carnation and lilac fragrances blended with lavender essential oil, lavender herb, dried powdered rose petals, and lilac flowers and leaves. I constructed the formula so that you could let go of anything material, mental, or emotional. What I didn’t expect was for it to work so well in selling things that have been difficult to unload because the person selling it had a problem releasing the object or property due to an emotional attachment. Imagine my surprise when several customers wrote to tell me that they had been able to sell a house, cars, and other home items that had before stubbornly resisted moving!
A helpful hint: take a piece of twine and wrap it one length around what you are trying to sell (yup, even a house or a car). Hey, it is actually fun doing this—you are “taking the measure” of the object. Use the charm, changing it a bit to name what you are letting go of. Cut the twine into several pieces and burn it or simply throw it in the trash, seriously indicating your release of the object.
Recommended candle color: white or light blue
Road Opener (Remove Blocks)
orange peel, chamomile, devil’s shoestring, bergamot, marigold petals, brown sugar, bay, calamus, abre camino, honeysuckle leaves or flowers
Perfection of the universe, open the way
The sun shines bright on my path today
Doors are open, the view is clear
Forward I move with nothing to fear.
Zisa! Zisa! Zisa!
Can be used with any road opener intent. Can be utilized with the Rad and Cen runes or with Ganesha (Ganapati, Vinayaka), an elephant-headed deity in the Hindu pantheon best known for removing obstacles and who is the patron of arts and sciences. I keep a statue of an elephant on my pros
perity altar surrounded with this herbal blend dressed with road opener liquid fluid condenser that I have made myself.
Recommended candle color: orange
Sekhmet
dragon’s blood, cinnamon, ginger, cypress
Hear me, O great warrior queen!
She who is the eye of Ra, lady of light and terror
Sa Sekem Sahu, goddess of medicine and fire!
I call thee forth in dignity and honor
To aid me in my working this night/day.
Sekhmet is a lion-headed warrior/healing goddess in the ancient Egyptian pantheon. She will lead you when you must fight. She will bring healing when you have been stricken with disease. She protects abused women, children, and animals, and fights the good fight for honor and justice.
Recommended candle color: burgundy
Send Back (Reverse Harm)
eucalyptus, rue, nettles, sandalwood, horseradish, red peppers wrapped in skunk cabbage leaves (or dry and grind the skunk cabbage and use as part of the powder)
I send back the evil it cannot return
The way is closed, the bridges are burned
Your words, deeds, and thoughts retreat to your brain
By sound, herbs, and spirit, I put you to shame.
This formula is used to send back a spell or a hex. You can use the horseradish root as a poppet and roll it in the powder or you can stuff a poppet with the herbs and paint it with horseradish from the grocery store, preferably a bottled brand with additional spicy herbal additives. Add a few drops of the fire element fluid condenser by brushing it on the poppet. Intone the charm nine times over the poppet, then burn the poppet in a firesafe cauldron.
Send It to the Grave
banishment formula
patchouli, devil’s shoestring, twitch grass, grave dirt, coffin nail
The wicked stutter, bend, and break
Blackened ground beckons fate
Twitching shoestrings strengthen knot
Musk of grave to bury thought
Nail to fix and stone to seal
Blood to thicken and congeal
Nail to coffin, ne’er to rise
Your evil be your own demise!
I’ve used this formula for placing problems in small wooden coffins that you can purchase during the Halloween season. Bury the coffin in a graveyard. (If legalities are a problem—private property, rules of the cemetery, etc.—bury the coffin deep in the woods in the same way. Some practitioners prefer using the dirt edge of a deserted backcountry crossroads.) Draw the seal of Saturn over the top. Stamp on the ground three times and cover with a heavy stone. Change the wording to suit the situation. For example, if you wish to release yourself from a problem, you may choose a different charm or reword this one.
Recommended candle color: white and black (although no candles are mentioned in the spell, practitioners are encouraged to use their creativity)
Serenity
willow bark, sand from the beach, Dead Sea salt
The sea of serenity is all around me
The sea of serenity is in me
The sea of serenity is around me and in me
And I can create anything!
Peace, joy, and serenity flow in me and round me always!
You can turn this into a powder by grinding the willow bark and adding it to the sand and sea salt, or you can spread the sand and sea salt on a smooth plate and draw designs in the mixture with a willow branch while saying the charm nine times each morning for nine mornings.
Recommended candle color: white and sea green
Steady Customers
tangerine, lime, ginger, bay, sandalwood, peppermint, bladderwrack
Dress a lodestone with the herbal powder and wrap in a gold or a green cloth. Add three drops of money draw liquid fluid condenser. Spray with peppermint-scented mist (peppermint essential oil mixed with blessed water and shaken well before spraying). Carry packet with you or place in the cash register of your business.
Steady Income
pine, ginger, moss, goldenseal, honeysuckle leaves or flowers
Dress the herbs with 3 drops jasmine essential oil. For this spell, you will need three pennies, a small toy train or ship (your ship comes in/wealth), and a jar or conjure bag. Place herbs, toy, and pennies in the jar or conjuring bag along with 3 drops of prosperity or money draw liquid fluid condenser. Repeat “magick swell and magick flow, make my mill of money grow” for as many times as you can until you lose the thought. Follow with this daily affirmation: “I will enjoy life. I will laugh. I will find riches in harmony. I will access my full potential, and I will succeed!”
Recommended candle color: lime green
Strength and Accomplishment
bay, saffron, tea, damiana, ginger, woodruff, pine, cloves, olive leaf, gum mastic, mistletoe
My voice will echo loud and strong
The words the pattern magick song
My breath brings life to what will be
My thoughts create that all will see
Strength! Success! That is! In me!
Place herbs in a red conjuring bag and hold in both hands. Say loudly, “I conjure thee!” Continue with the charm, saying it three times with feeling.
Recommended candle color: red
SunLion Success
sunflower seed hulls, cinquefoil, ginger, cedar, dandelion
Mighty herbs of nature’s glory
I conjure thee: success my story.
This conjuration is designed for the hour of the sun on a Sunday. It can also be used on a new moon to get projects started and works very well on midsummer or when the sun or moon is in Leo. Carry the conjuring bag with you and re-empower at each phase of the moon, from new to full (so you will be working with the conjuring bag eight times throughout the month). Charm is to be said nine times, on each moon phase.
Recommended candle color: gold or yellow
Sweet Wind Solstice/Equinox Wish Formula
sea salt, buckthorn, basil, element of air
I use this mixture on the morning of the spring equinox, summer solstice, fall equinox, and winter solstice. You can add to it, particularly if you like an unusual herb; the base, however, is simply sea salt and basil. I perform the working outdoors on my porch.
Gather your supplies—sea salt, basil, buckthorn, bowl. Utilize the sea of potential exercise.
Rub your hands together briskly in a circular motion until they become warm. Place your hands over the ingredients and intone “only the good remains” nine times.
Mix the salt and herbs together in the bowl.
Rub your fingers in a clockwise direction around the rim of the bowl, saying, “Sweet wind cometh, bringing joy” (nine times). Blow softly on the mixture (so as not to scatter it) three times. Use nice long breaths with the intent to instill joy.
Draw an equal-armed cross over the bowl to seal it.
You can bottle the mixture for later use or proceed with the next step.
Take the mixture to your doorstep, on the steps of your home, right below the steps on the ground, or on the walkway (your choice).
Straighten your shoulders. Stand up straight. Breathe deeply, then address the spirit of sweet winds:
Spirit of sweet winds, come to me now.
Bring thy joy, thy laughter, thy cleansing breath!
Circle me now and bestow the gifts of happiness, peace, and love!
Say this in a confident tone of voice. Give it a little time and you will feel the shift around you. The breezes will caress your face, and you will experience an uplifting sensation.
Scatter the sweet wind mixture on the ground, again repeating “only the good remains” for at least nine times or as long as it takes to sprinkle the mixture. In your own way, thank the universe.

Swift Endings
cinnamon, dill, patchouli, vervain, ginger, celery seed, ghost peppers, 7 small dead sticks (3–4 inches in length) collected from nature on a Spirit Walk, sea salt
Swift the closure, fast the finish
Over it! No longer in it!
Banish sadness, sever ties
I the phoenix ever rise!
Write out the problem and place the paper on the inside bottom of a small mason jar. Fill the jar halfway with the sea salt and cover with the swift endings powder. Each day insert one stick into the sand/powder mixture until it touches the bottom of the jar and the paper while reciting the charm three times. On the seventh day, cap the jar and throw it in the trash.
Recommended candle color: red
Transformation
lavender, lemon balm, lemongrass, lemon peel, skullcap, vervain, lemon verbena
I designed this formula for people who are ready to release negativity surrounding past unfortunate circumstances and move forward. Write down what you wish to release. Spit on the paper. Allow it to dry. Cover the paper with the herbal ingredients or with the powder and burn outdoors. After the ashes are cool, release in a peaceful place.
Recommended candle color: turquoise or seafoam green
Transition
green tea, lemongrass, lemon verbena, lavender
The transition formula was originally designed to spiritually support and lessen fear for an individual who was going through the gender reassignment process. We made an herbal bath with blessed water that was used at the beginning of each stage during the two-year process, as well as a conjuring bag of the herbals for the person to carry with them. We changed the herbals every three months. This formula also works very well for ceremonies marking the change from childhood to adulthood.
Recommended candle color: white
Triple Action and Motivation
vervain, red saffron, cinnamon, calamus, galangal, vanilla
Fast and furious speeds the game
Open the road for joy and gain!
Crown of success is mine today
As I will, I win my way!
I use this formula with a centerpiece of three racing horses for all manner of business and personal success, and I have used it to stuff horse spirit dolls for totem work. This is a great formula to use as the sun rises in a dawn ceremony. I also like using the conjuration on a Tuesday during a waxing moon (best in a fire sign) in a Mars planetary hour.
