Full Moon Magick for When The Full Moon Falls on a Thursday
Happy, Healthy Family Spell
You will need:
• A green 7-day jar candle (green for prosperity and to align with Jupiter’s energies)
• A permanent marker to draw Thursday’s planetary symbol of Jupiter (4) and the names of each household member
• A photo of your entire household (make sure all of the members are in the photo; if necessary, use a couple of photos to get your kids, spouse, and your pets)
• 3 oak leaves gathered from a living tree (oak leaves are linked to Thor as well as the planet Jupiter)
• i tumbled turquoise stone for prosperity and protection
• i small tumbled moonstone for loving emotions
• The Ten of Pentacles and Ten of Cups tarot cards
• A 6 x 6-inch square of green fabric or a green sachet bag
• i2 inches white satin ribbon
•A lighter or matches
If possible, set up this spell on a safe, flat surface where the light of the full moon illuminates your working area. If weather permits, this would be a nice spell to work outdoors-just be sure to move the candle indoors when you finish the spell. To start, take the marker and draw the planetary symbol of Jupiter on the jar candle.
Next, add the names of all the members of your household; this includes pets!
Place the candle and the other components of the spell on your working area. The stones can nestle around the jar candle. Lay the photo(s) of your family in the center of your altar, with the two tarot cards, the Ten of Cups/Cauldrons and the Ten of Pentacles, one on each side of the photos. Place the oak leaves above the photos and the cards. Keep the sachet bag or fabric and ribbon within reach.
Light the candle, and place your hands on the photos. Then repeat the spell verse:
Abundance flourishes on the night of the full moon
May the deities of Thursday heed this Witch’s tune
Thor, hear my call and bless my family
Bring us love, support, and prosperity
Keep us healthy, happy, and secure, come what may
As we stand strong together through all of our days.
Gather the photos, one of the oak leaves, and the two tumbled stones, and place them in the center of the fabric. Gather up the edges into a small bundle, and use the ribbon to tie it closed or place the items inside the sachet bag and pull the drawstring closed.
Knot the ribbon three times, and say:
By all the power of three times three
This magick strengthens my family.
Finally, close the spell with these lines:
May the full moon bless all of the ways
I work my witchery on this day.
Allow the candle to burn out in a safe place; it will take about a week. I typically put jar candles on my brick hearth, inside of a large cast-iron cauldron, so even if it somehow how got tipped over, the flame would stay contained in a fireproof area.
Clean up your other spell supplies. Save the two oak leaves and keep them for future magick. Return the cards to the tarot deck. Keep the bag with the photos, stones, and leaf together in a safe place until the next full moon. Then, on the night of the following full moon, open it up. Keep the photos and the crystals, and return the oak leaf to nature
