Spell: Overcoming Obstacles to Success

Color of the Day
Incense of the Day
 
Since this day has both the first quarter moon and Mercury in retrograde, it's an excellent time to overcome obstacles, "turning a corner" to greater success.

For this spell, create an oil from 1 tablespoon oregano, 1 tablespoon mint, and 1/4 cup almond (or sunflower) oil. Set a cauldron in the middle of an altar table, with a white candle to its left and an orange candle to the right. On a piece of paper, write the obstacle to overcome in black ink. Anoint both candles with the oil you've made and light them, left then right.

Hold the paper, focusing on overcoming this problem, then light it in the flames of the white and then the orange candle, saying:

"Mercury moving through the past,
sun squared moon, adds to the charm;
to overcome obstacles, fortune at last,
victory gained, free from harm."

Drop the paper into the cauldron to burn to ashes.
