| Here are 3 books that I have been studying recently. The Book of Spells by Nicola de Pulford The Book of Spells II by Marian Green. The Complete Book of Spells, Ceremonies & Magic by Migene Gonzalez-Wippler These books can be found on Amazon, Barnes and Nobel, and at any major book store. I found the The Book of Spells II here in Holland, The translation was Meer Magie by Marian Green. So, I am assuming that they are translated into many languages. |

| Spinning in a lover An old English spell to attract a special lover From The Book of Spells |
| You will need A pink candle A cocktail stick A strip of paper Red, green, and white ribbons A Length of spindle wood |
| Traditionally, the wood of the spindle (euonymus europaeus) was used to spin wool, mostly by unmarried girls known as "spinsters." A round stone with a whole in the middle was fitted over the end of the spindle to keep it turning, and so grew its association with the male and female. If you cannot obtain spindle, willow will work just as well, or buy a ready-made spindle. To attract a special loverm carry out this spell on a Friday, the day sacred to Venus, goddess of love, and on a waxing moon for maximum power. |
| Method |
| To Attract your ideal partner, start tis spell on a moonlit Friday evening. Picture his or her physical and spiritual being in your mind's eye, and attach a magical name to him or her. Inscribe this name on the side of the candle using the cocktail stick. On a narrow strip of paper, write your name down, then braid the ribbons around the paper, keeping your ideal partner in your mind's eye all the while. Take the braided ribbons, candle, and spindle to the moonlight, asking Venus to bless them. Set the candle down and light it. Concentrate on its glow and picture yourself hand-in-hand with your love new. Wind the braided ribbons around the spindle in ta clockwise direction as you watch the candle melt your lover's name. Seal each end of the ribbon to the spindle with melted wax. Keep the spindle close to you when you go to bed. Unbraid the ribbons the following day to free the spell and bring love to your side. |

Imagine the scent and light of the incense stick and candle enfolding you in silence and protection, forming an invisible sacred circle around you. Close your eyes and breathe slowly and deeply, concentrate on breathing as you breathe in. Imagine yourself in your favorite outdoor location, until you feel you are really there. Feel the air smell the scents, touch the ground, and hear whatever sounds are most pleasurable to you in that place. A sense of calm will soon envelop you, and a new magical world will come to open up before you. Open your eyes and jot down your impressions and feelings, these notes will help you achieve this sense of calm more quickly the next time you do this exericise. |
