If you walk the beach during the summer months, collect any smooth bits of glass you find among the rocks. In ancient times, this sea-glass was known as "mermaids' mirror bits," and was considered good luck for the beachcomber. Often mermaids were depicted holding a mirror and a comb, symbols of Venus, the goddess of beauty and fertility. Venus was said to have sprung fully grown from the sea. Her Greek name, Aphrodite, literally means "foam-risen." Place the sea-glass you find in a little green bag with a piece of red silk cut in the shape of a heart. As you sew the bag closed, say:

This bag I sew, fertility,
A child will come from me.
Fecund Venus, I pray,
Abundant life come my way.

This spell will work equally well if you seek fertility of another sort. Just change the word "child" above to "creativity," or "abundant garden," or whatever it is you seek.
