Ostara Spells

A protective egg Charm

Take an egg and, by poking small holes at each end of it, empty it out.  Fill the egg with Cinquefoil leaf and Dogwood, then tape the holes shut.  You can decorate the egg with Runes or symbols of protection, or you can leave it natural. Your home and property will be protected.

Dandilion Magic

Pick a white dandilion puff on the night of the full moon.  Charge the dandilion with a wish, call to the four quarters, and blow your wish into the wind.

An Ostara Love Spell

Now, a love spell is not to MAKE someone love you, Witches believe that that sort of manipulation of a person is wrong.  Love spells are done to show you your future mate in a premonition, or to draw the right love to you, of their own free will- basically giving Mr. or Mrs. right a gentle push in the right direction.

Read the spell over, gather the ingredients listed, then at night before you go to sleep, recite the spell and perform the actions as you recite them:

Of violets and Lavender, take each a few,
Enclose them with Myrtle of dark green hue.
Make them in a posy, small and round and bright,
May you see your true love in your dreams tonight.

A Chant to honor the Trees

Trees are very important to Witches, and indeed important to us all.  They are the lungs of the Earth, purifying the very air we breathe as they shade us and protect us.

When nights and days are balanced and halved,
The ancient Oaks sprout life anew.
Limbs of buds and leaves reach out
Collecting the breath of the mornings' dew

Summer will come and the Winter winds,
Turning and turning the leaves on their stems.
Then they must fall, but now in the spring
the twig is bound, and the Bud remains.

Hang the leaf from sturdy limb
Of Oak or Maple, or Ash, or Elm,
Praise the Oak God, the tree is him!
Thus will the trees live long and well.

A Planting Ritual

O precious seeds which spring from the earth,
giving us magick, healing and power
I return you to the earth.
Feel My love, feel MY power
as I sow you in this magical and mystical hour!!

Grow with light,
grow with love,
grow with the blessings of the god and goddess above!!
So mote it be.
