Witchy wife,Creative weirdo and all around lovebug

This glamour spell is one of the few that I use, and I can say that it’s worked for me quite well. Be careful, though. You may attract unwanted attention.

SUPPLIES NEEDED:

a jar

water

rose petals (optional)

vanilla essential oil (optional)

red or pink candle (optional)

STEPS:

💋 Pour the water inside the jar you wish to use.

💋 Put in your ingredients that you chose to use. As you put them in, visualize how you want people to look at you. If you want to be confident, visualize yourself being confident. If you want romantic or sexual attention, visualize yourself getting that. Whatever you want, just visualize yourself attracting it.

At this point, if you wish to use a candle, now is the time to pour your intentions into it & light it. If not, that’s fine. You can also call upon deities who correspond to love at this moment.

💋Stir the liquid clockwise so that it’s moving towards you. As you do so, continue to visualize your desired outcome.

💋 After that, it’s all done. You can leave it out by the window and allow the moon the charge it up. If you chose to light a candle, let it burn down.

WAYS TO USE IT:

Chamomile tea

Maple Syrup

Vanilla

Cinnamon

Steep your tea and enchant the cup and tea itself. Slowly add the maple syrup to sweeten your thoughts towards yourself. Add the vanilla to soothe you and bring happiness. Lastly add in the cinnamon to draw positivity and encouragement to yourself. Then drink and focus on all the ingredients and what they are bringing to you and how they are helping you.

Obviously, you don’t have to include all of these ideas in your grimoire: they are merely ideas, prompts and inspiration for your own research and documentation. Similarly, this list is not exhaustive and there may be other things you want to include in your grimoire.

This is in no particular order, you may wish to organise your grimoire into sections; but I personally don’t overthink the structure of my grimoire and I just make sure I have a good contents page. 

You may also want to include things such as print outs, post cards, your own drawings and sketches, paintings, and decorations. Some people add extra pages or cut outs, flaps and envelopes. what you include is up to you and dependent on what you desire from your grimoire. If you are using a notebook, I would recommend sticking an envelope on the back page so you can keep any small or lose pages in it.  

So, here are some suggestions for things to put in your grimoire:

a contents page (this is important to organise your information for future reference)

information on any witchy festivals that you celebrate. For instance, when are they, what are their origins, how are they celebrated, their correspondences and associations

information on the moon phases. What are the moon phases, an almanac for the moon phases for the upcoming year, what associations and correspondences are associated with each moon phase, what types of magic are suited to each moon phase

colour correspondences

information on the elements. What are the elements, what are their associations and correspondences

a record of your sigils, runes and symbols. Draw them out and note their purpose

a record of the spells that you have done. What are the ingredients and methods of the spell, why did you do it, how did you do it, when did you do it, what were the results and effects, what changes would you make next time

similarly, a record of any rituals that you have done

information on witchy plants that you would like to grow

an entry for each witchy festival celebrated. How did you celebrate it, did you do any further research, are there things you would like to do to celebrate it next time

information on all the crystals that you own. What are they, what do they look like, what are their uses and associations, what have you used them for 

practical information you have researched, such as how to create sigils, charge, activate and use them. Other examples include fire safety

specific references for themes that you use a lot. For instance, items for bringing calm (crystals, plants, colours, scents…)

Such as the history of witches where you live, or the folklore of a particular time period you are interested in. Examples I have include Selkies, geographical features in Western Scotland, and Scottish Fair Folk

recipes for things you have made such as bath soaks and tea blends. What is in them, why have you used those particular ingredients, are they effective

information on aspects of magic that are specific to you. For instance, I have information on how to conserve energy in witchcraft

What are they known as, when were they first known in the historical record, what are their origins, what folk lore is associated with them, why would you like to work with them, what or where are they associated with, what are their patronages
