Patience Spell

Color of the day:  Purple
Incense of the day:  Jasmine
 

Based on the popular Serenity Prayer, this spell draws on the characteristics of the four elements to help you foster patience and balance in difficult situations.

Place a clear quartz point or cluster in a clear jar or glass bowl and fill it with water. Light a floating candle on the water (or beside the jar or bowl). This represents the four elements we need for life; visualize them giving you strength. Chant this as you gaze upon them:

By water I’m balanced to
go with the flow,
While earth keeps me grounded
and stable to grow.
Air gives me insight so I understand;
With the courage of fire,
I change what I can.

Allow the candle to burn out, then discard it. Pour the water outside (or on a plant) as an offering. Carry the stone with you or keep it in a place where you can see it.
