SPIRITED AWAY (2001) dir. Hayao Miyazaki

Specifically made this for a new job I’m starting soon! 

What You Need: 

Yellow or gold candle- money 

Green candle- good luck, money   

Black candle- protection (from negative thoughts of failing or self-doubt in this case)  

Any crystals that you associate with protection, courage, money, and intuition 

½ cup all purpose flour- abundance, rebirth/new opportunity, harvesting rewards  

¼ cup salt- purification, protection 

6 tablespoons cinnamon- luck, money, success, awareness, protection, love (who knows who you’ll meet at this new job..)  

6 tablespoons water- great chance to use moon water, preferable charged in phases leading up/close to the full moon  

Basil- luck, money  

Some of your hair or other taglock of yourself 

Coins 

Instructions: 

Set up the space by gathering your ingredients, cleansing in your preferred way, lighting your candles, and setting your crystals as preferred. 

In a bowl, mix the dry ingredients first, then the water and mix again:

Mix counterclockwise while focusing on dispelling your fears of not succeeding, self-doubts, imposter syndrome, and any other negative thoughts that others may have sent your way that could block your success.

Then mix clockwise while envisioning your success, attracting money, confidence, quality of life, luck, maybe love, and a smooth transition to the newness of it all.

Knead the dough until it feels closer to play-dough. Imagine your intent is pouring out from your hands into the dough.

Cut your dough into a person shape, and add the hair/taglock (I personally actually only used half of the dough and saved the other half)   

Preheat the oven to 300, then bake for around 30 minutes (flip it over in the last 5 minutes)- it’s done when it’s practically rock solid 

Lay it to cool, you can put wax and sprinkle the basil on top, and/or inscribe a success sigil on the back. Surround it with the coins and crystals.  

Allow it to charge in the candle light and crystals, and recharge it daily by adding coins or relighting the candles.
