Spell for Creativity

Color of the day:  Purple
Incense of the day:  Thyme
 

To foster inspiration and creativity, no matter what your outlet is, try this spell. You’ll need several bay leaves. Dried ones from the spice rack are fine.

Bay (Laurus nobilis) was revered in ancient Greece and Rome. The herb was dedicated to the god Apollo. It is also said that the oracles at Delphi chewed bay leaves to induce prophetic visions. To give your own powers a boost, first charge the bay leaves with this dedication:

I celebrate creative art
and dedicate these leaves
to help express what’s in my heart
and what I can achieve.

Prophecy and poetry,
music, paint, and dance,
increase the skills I cultivate,
my craft to be enhanced.

Burn the bay leaves as incense while you work. Sleep with one under your pillow at night.
