Knot Spell for Weight Loss

This article was written on July 25, 2008 posted under Spells



From Everyday Sun Magic, by Dorothy Morrison



Materials
Length of black embroidery floss cut to the size of your waist

Take the floss outdoors as the sun begins to set, and spend a moment or two thinking about the things that keep you from losing the excess weight. Then tie nine evenly spaced knots in the floss, saying with each:

First knot:
By knot of one, I now ignite
A reduction in my appetite



Second knot:
By knot of two, my metabolism
Becomes an active mechanism



Third knot:
By knot of three, I bind desire
For unhealthy foods; it now expires



Fourth knot:
By knot of four, I bind the urge
To binge and gobble, gorge and splurge


Fifth knot:
By knot of five, inertia goes
And exercise, I don’t oppose


Sixth knot:
By knot of six, all excess weight
Is bound to quickly dissipate



Seventh knot:
By knot of seven, I resist
Servings larger than two fists


Eighth knot:
By knot of eight, insecurity goes
Self-worth buds and blooms and grows



Ninth knot:
By knot of nine, I bind setbacks
So I stay easily on track



Finally, tie the two ends together while visualizing yourself reaching your goal weight easily and painlessly. Say something like:


By final knot, I set this spell
So each and every single cell
 Of my body and my mind
Works together now to bind
Me to this weight-loss strategy
And a healthy ideology
Until of excess pounds I’m free
As I will, so mote it be

Looking through a typical tarot deck, you find that human characters in the cards are distinguished by many different kinds of headwear. Tarot artists are limited by how much detail they can fit into such small illustrations, but by drawing people with different hats, crowns, helmets, and other head coverings, they concisely convey information... read this article
