Magickal Activity for January 16th, The Day of Concordia
Circle of Friendship Spell
Items needed: One pink candle for each person you wish to befriend; one gold candle to represent yourself; one sprig of rosemary; one sprig of lavender.
Begin by placing each pink candle, evenly spaced, in a circle. In the center of the circle lay the rosemary and lavender sprigs in a cross formation. Place the gold candle next to the center of the cross. Take a few moments to relax. Visualize yourself and your circle of friends having a wonderful time.
Light the gold candle first, and then in a clockwise direction light each of the pink candles. Chant the following once for each friendship candle:
“As the stars above in darkness shine,
With a light that fills the heavens divine.
So bright with radiance our friendships glow,
Outshining the sun and dimming all foes.”
Allow the candles to burn for one hour and then extinguish. Repeat the spell every evening until the candles have burned out. Save the rosemary and lavender. It can be used later for friendship amulets.

Protection From Evil & Negativity Spell
Protection From Evil & Negativity Spell
A Witch’s Bottle
Gather rosemary, needles and pins. Fill a small jar with these three ingredients, saying the following as you work:
Pins, needles, rosemary, wine
In this witch’s bottle of mine
Guard against harm and enmity
This is my will, So mote it be!
Visualize these herbs doing just that. When the jar is full, pour in red wine.
Then cap or cork the jar and drip wax from a black or red candle around the seal. Bury the jar at the farthest corner of your property or place it in an inconspicuous spot in the house.
The Witch’s bottle destroys negativity and evil. The pins and needles impale evil, the wine drowns it, and the rosemary send it far from your property.
