*IMPORTANT NOTES*

IF IN THE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE, REPLACE ALL INSTANCES OF “Imbolc” WITH “LUGHNASADH”

This spell can only be performed at 11:55 PM on February first.  This spell is for the SOLE purpose of increasing one's chances in games, specifically those based around probability and seemingly random chance, such as card games or gambling.  This spell creates a basic luck enchantment on an object, such as a ring.  A ring is suggested, as that is what it was tested on.  The object must be worn, and must make direct contact with the skin.  This spell cannot be repurposed, as it was created with the sole intention of a "cheater's ring"enchantment, on a specific timeframe.  This enchantment was not designed to replace natural skill, luck, or knowledge, and should be used as a supplement, rather than a primary resource.  However, when playing a game that relies purely on luck, or when utilizing pure luck as a main strategy in something, this spell is heavily recommended as that is what it was designed for.  As always, this spell plots out the three main core components and denotes where they are called upon.  The componenents are as follows:

Blue-Wave; Mind/Spirit Green-Wave; Physical Form/Nature Red-Wave; Instinct/Emotion

To perform this spell, you will need the following components: Incense, Incense burner, Spellbook/book of shadows, Burnable paper, Red marker, Music player of some kind, Enchantable object, Crystal collection (using a spiral cage is recommended, as it focuses and keeps the energy together, Tarot deck, Source of Water, Lighter for the Incense.

*WHEN WRITING THE RUNES, USE THE RED MARKER ONLY*

IMBOLC BARD'S DICE ENCHANTMENT:

3   4

On the upper piece of paper, write the following rune sequence, in the given order and position

x 1 x 5 2 4 x 3 x

Place your crystals directly above Tiwaz, pointing TOWARDS you.  The crystals should be perpendicular to the top piece of paper, and should not be touching the Mannaz rune. Place your enchantable item on top of the Mannaz rune. Place your primary spellbook/book of shadows on your lap.  If you have this spell written in it, read directly from it, otherwise, close it and place it perpendicular to your body. Make sure your legs are crossed, not kneeling, and all jewelry (apart from totemic pieces) has been removed, along with all the contents of your pockets. Take some time to clear your mind, and begin playing some calming music (Red-Wave)

CLEANUP:

Upon completing the incantation, extinguish the incensce by completely submerging it in a body of water. Utter a quick cleansing/blessing of said water IMMEDIATELY before extinguishing. Allow all burnt parts of the inscense to break off before removing the main body. Take your inscribed pieces of paper, keeping them lined up and together, and burn them, starting from the center. When the flame reaches your fingers, OR the center has COMPLETELY burnt through, drop the papers into the water.
