Periwinkle (Vinca minor) is sometimes called the sorcerer's violet for its connection to use in both protection and love spells. It is also known as the flower of death, as the low-growing groundcover with starlike flowers can still be found growing in many a graveyard, as it is an easy alternative to grass. For these reasons, periwinkle is the perfect addition to spells for renewal.

After a hard week at work, a horrible first date, or just a bad day, brew a cup of tea, queue up some soothing music, and light your favorite calming incense. When you feel ready, surround a pink candle, inscribed with your name and anointed with a few drops of rose oil, with periwinkle blossoms and a few rose quartz crystals. Light the candle and say something like this:

Herb of renewal, reset this mess.
I'll take the good and forget the rest.
Life is funny, full of ups and downs.
Thanks for the reminder
to straighten my crown.

Extinguish the candle when done.
