Energy Spells

When you need a boost, energy spells can help you tap into the unlimited energy of the Earth to help your flagging spirit. It’s not quite the same as drinking a couple of energy drinks, but you can bring yourself a little added umph when you need it.

A Spirit Spark

When you’re feeling sluggish or just generally “down in the dumps” try this energy spell to help rev you up a little. All you need is:

• One orange candle
• Orange yarn
• A cinnamon stick
• A heat-proof dish

Your length of yarn should be enough to go around the candle a few times. Wrap it around, and tie 3 knots in the yarn as you go so that they lie somewhat equally around the diameter of the candle. Set it in a candle holder and start to focus on your spell.

Concentrate on energy coming up from the Earth, and flowing up through your feet until it reaches your head. Once it’s filled your body, light the candle. Say the following out lout:

Energy, power, rise up the tower,

Energy, power, rise up the tower,

Energy, power, rise up the tower

Holding one end of the cinnamon stick, put the other in the candle until it lights. Let it burn and smoulder for a few moments, then set it in the fire-proof dish. Think about the heat of the flame until it burns itself out. Let the candle keep burning until it is done.

Crystal Booster Bag

This is a little charm bag you can carry with you to help bring a little extra strength and energy to your day. You need to have:

• A small cloth bag (white or blue)
• One each of:
  • Bloodstone
  • Citrine
  • Red jasper
  • Pyrite
  • A few chips of cedar wood

There is no real ritual to go along with this charm bag. Just collect the stones you need, and put them in the bag with a few bits of cedar (or even just wood chips scented with cedar oil). Tie it closed and carry it with you to bring some energy along with you.
