September 21st is the Autumn Equinox. Another old name for this day was Harvest Home before Aidan Kelly decided on the name Mabon. In the mid 20th century, the United Nations decided to name September 21st as the International Day of Peace. I find this an interesting choice and a fascinating overlap. The first thought that came to mind was how the equinox is the balance point and the days surrounded it are more or less equal hours of day and night. A moment of peace between one the bright and long days of summer, and dark and long nights of winter in the Northern Hemisphere. Whichever one you decide to observe, may you have a blessed day, and may these blessings continue to bring you more blessings in the future.
Every year, September 17 marks the beginning of the 9 days leading up to the Feast Day of Saint Cyprian of Antioch, the saint of sorcerers, necromancers, root doctors, and all people who work in folk magic. While no longer recognized by the Catholic Church, the Orthodox churches still recognize him, and many folk magic practitioners, especially from Iberian descended folk magic, and other people who learned of his devotion and practice revere him, and pray for his aid an intercession in various things. His name appears on books of the occult across Europe, with the most famous, the Sorcerer’s Treasure, is rooted in Iberian folk magic. The are numerous versions, with some version just being The Key of Solomon in Spanish. I started to pray and revere to Saint Cyprian many years ago, as when I learned about him, I was immediately drawn to such an interesting figure, and a kind of crossroads of Christian and Pagan pathways. Over those years I have learned that Cyprian is called upon in many situations, and while protection and curse breaking are some of the best known, job getting, love, money, and many more things are possible with his aid. If you have never heard of Saint Cyprian, and he intrigues you, I invite you to began a 9 day devotion to him. If you already work and make devotions to him, I am glad to join all devotees in recognizing the amazing and awesome capabilities of Saint Cyprian and his intercession with The Most High.
Mage and Martyr, Saint and Sorcerer, Take my prayers and make them your own. When the Lord hears them, he will not ignore them because they will cease to be my words, but yours. Amen
For this spell you will need 13 pink candles A candle holder A glass jar with a metal lid (2 oz size or less is recommended) Sugar Reconciliation Oil. 5 packets of Reconciliation Herb bath (enough for 13 days) Reconciliation Powder A fire proof plate A slip of paper A pen or a pencil with no eraser A tool to inscribe candles, like a pin, needle, nail, etc…
This spell should be started on the first night of the new moon, when you can see the first sliver of the moon, also called The Turn of the Moon. Take the slip of paper and on one side write your name. Across from your name, write the person, your lover, that you wish to reconcile with. Take a dab of honey and put it on both your name and their name. Then fold the paper in half so your names come together, as if you were in a sweet kiss. Fold this paper up two more times. Then place it into the jar. Cover the paper sugar until the jar is filled.Taste the sugar and then close the jar up.
Take one of the pink candles and inscribe on it “Your name, their name, Let us Reconcile”. Write this in a spiral around the candle, like on a barber pole or a candy cane. Until the candle is filled.
Take some of the reconciliation oil, and anoint the candle with the oil. Set the candle into the candle holder, and place the candle holder on top of the jar. Make a circle of reconciliation powder around the jar and candle set up. Light the candle. Let the candle burn down until it goes out.
As the candle burns, prepare the herb bath by steeping a teaspoon of the herbs in a quart/liter of hot water to make a tea.Add this tea to a bathtub of comfortable temperature water, or mix with a gallon of water in a large container to pour over yourself. Which ever method you use, collect a teaspoon of the bath water that has been in contact with your body, and keep it in bottle.
Repeat this every night for 13 nights. The last night should be the day just before the full moon.
The following night, take all the collected water from the 13 nights, and put all the reconciliation powder you used, and any wax remnants from the candles into a small paper bag, and go to the crossroads between Midnight and 3 am. While at the crossroads, call out the name of your lover that you wish to reconcile with. Call their name 7 times. Then pour out the accumulated water from your baths into the crossroads, and leave the paper bag with powder and wax in the crossroads, and call out saying “Let us reconcile, and be loving, sweet, kind and united”. Then leave the crossroads without looking back. .
1 package of Influence Bath Crystals 1 package of Look Me Over Bath Crystals 1 lucky stone
1 bottle of Influence Oil 1 bottle of Look Me Over oil 1 package of Influence incense
1 package of Look me Over incense 1 package of Influence Powder 1 package of Look Me Over Powder
1 red candle
A picture of yourself
A mirror
This spell is meant to give you that sparkle, where people are just drawn to you, and when they are drawn to you, they will also fall under your influence, and be easily persuaded.
Mix together the Influence and Look Me Over Bath crystals. Take a tablespoon of that mixture and mix it into a quart of water until it dissolves. Take a wash cloth and soak it in the bath and use it to wipe your body, starting at your ankles and going up to your neck, and including your face if you desire.
Take the remaining water, and use that on a lucky stone you have purchased in advance. This can be any stone, but birth stones are highly recommended. This stone can be loose, but if it is a pendant, or a ring, or a center piece of a necklace, where people can notice it, it works better.. You can drop the stone into the water, or just sprinkle a small amount with your hands. Dry the stone, and then anoint it with the combination of the Influence and Look Me Over oil.
Allow your body to air dry, and when you’re dry anoint your body with Influence and Look Me Over oil. Start with your feet and rub a small amount on the soles of your feet, behind your knees, just above your navel, on your wrists, the bend of your elbow, at the meeting point of your collarbones, and behind the lobes of your ears. Then put on clean fresh clothes, put on your stone or have it in your pocket, or purse etc… and mix together the Influence and Look Me Over Incense, and burn some, and waft the smoke over yourself and walk through it.
Take your picture, and write around your image “Look At Me” and “Heed My Wishes” Put the picture down and sprinkle a ring of Influence and Look Me Over Powder over the words and around your image. Set a candle holder on top of this. Anoint the red candle with Influence and Look Me Over oils. It can be any size of candle, but the best results I have experienced are if the burn time aligns with the time you will be out. A short evening or an interview can work well with a four hour chime candle. A six hour taper can be good for a day at work or a long evening.
While the candle burns, take out a mirror. Any size mirror, whether a compact or hand mirror, or even set the candle before a vanity mirror. Look into the mirror, either with the candle reflected in it, or holding the mirror before the candle and looking into the mirror. Focus your gaze on your eyes and face, stirring the power of glamour and fascination within you. Know that your presence and focused attention radiates personal magnetism, drawing whoever you desire to fall under your influence.
I chose a red candle for this spell because of how Red is a powerful and attention grabbing color. You could use other bright colors as well, such as yellow, orange or pink.
