You Will Need:
Strawberry tea (one bag)
Small wand or stick from a willow tree
Sea salt
2 pink candles
A mirror
1 Pink drawstring bag
1 Quartz crystal
1 Copper penny
! Bowl of china or chrystal that is special to you
1 Teaspoon of dried jasmine
1 Teaspoon orris-root powder
1 Teaspoon yarrow
10+ Drops apple-blossom oil or peach oil
10= Drops strawberry oil
Instructions:
On a Friday morning or evening(the day sacred to venus) take a bath in sea salt in the light of a pink candle. As you dry off and dress, sip the strawberry tea. Use a dab of strawberry oil as a perfume or cologne. Apply makeup or groom yoursel to look your best.Cast a circle with a willow wand around a table holding the other ingredients. Light the second pink candle. Mix all the oils and herbs in the bowl. While you stir look at yourself in the mirror and say aloud:
"Oh. Great Mother Goddess, enclose me in your loving arms and nurture and bring forth the Goddess within me."
Gaze deeply into the mirror after you have finished mixing the ingredients and say aloud:
"I represent the Great Goddess, Mother of all thing. I shine in the light of the Golden Wings of Isis. All that is great and loving only belongs to me."
Then you put away half of the mixture in the pink bag and add the penny and the crystal. Carry it with you always [or until you find a new love]. Leave the otherr half of the potion in the bowl, out in a room where you will smell the fragrance. Repeat this ritual every Friday if neccesary.
