HOUSE BLESSING
Recite the following while burning St. John's wort in a fireplace or censer.
Touch the lintel and touch the wall,
Nothing but Blessings here befall!
Bless the candle that stands by itself,
Bless the book on the mantle shelf,
Bless the pillow for the tired head,
Bless the hearth and the light shed.
Friends who tarry here, let them know
A Three Fold blessing before they go.
Sleep for weariness - peace for sorrow
Faith in yesterday and tomorrow.
Friends who go from here, let them bear
The blessing of hope, wherever they fare.
Lintel and windows, sill and wall,
Nothing but good, this place befall.
THE ASH TREE SPELL
To gain a prophetic dream of one's future true love, a sprig of the mystical ash
should be plucked with these words:
Even ash, even ash, I pluck thee,
This night my true love for to see;
Neither in his rick or in his rear,
But in the clothes he does every day wear!
THE HEMPSEED SPELL
To cast a spell on one's true love, the prospective bride should sow hempseed
either simply in nine furrows or, According to other accounts, on St.
Valentine's Eve or Midsummer's Eve around a church at the clock strikes
midnight.
Hempseed I sow, hempseed I sow,
The young man that I love
Come after me, and mow.
I sow; I sow;
Then my own dear
Come here, come here:
And mow; and mow!
If the nine-furrow method is used, the charm must be repeated nine times, once
for each furrow. Otherwise just keep chanting until you finish circling the
church. Your true love will look you up the next day. The minister's reaction
to the circle of pot that springs up around his church in a week or so will also
be worth watching for.
A POPPY SPELL
This Italian spell can be adapted to any type of prophetic dream, not merely one
concerned with matters of love.
Make a hold in a poppy pod and empty out the seeds. Now fold up a small piece
of paper with the question you want answered written on it, insert it in the
pod, and place it under your pillow last thing at night, saying these words:
In the name of heaven, the stars and the moon
May I dream, and that full soon,
If this I see [name your wish].
If you dream of your wish, it's sure to come true.
A WILLOW SPELL
Willows were always being used by witches and lovelorn maidens to secure their
heart's desires by supernormal means when all other methods had been exhausted.
Take a green, pliable willow osier, and tie a firm knot in it, uttering these
words as you do:
This knot I tie,
This knot I knit,
For that true love
Whom I know not yet!
Keep the osier hidden in a safe place until your true love turns up.
