Mind-Sharpening Spell

• Several sprigs of flowering lavender
  
• Yellow ribbon or thread
• Yellow candle

Instructions:
Take a few deep breaths, inhaling the deep relaxing scent of fresh lavender as
you release any negative thoughts.
Light the yellow candle.
Gather the sprigs of lavender and bind them together in a small bouquet using
the yellow ribbon.
As you wind the ribbon around the sprigs, visualize yourself completing your
learning task—whether it’s a class, a job, or anything else—with satisfaction
and pride in your abilities. If any other thoughts creep in during your
visualization, let them quickly pass through and disappear out of your mind.
Use a few drops of wax from the yellow candle to seal the ribbon or thread
around the bouquet.
Hold the bouquet in your hands and say the following (or similar) words:
“Power of lavender, bright bouquet
Mental clutter is swept away
Yellow of East, yellow of air
My mind is now sharp and clear.”
Hang the bouquet from your desk or from the ceiling near your desk or study
area. You can also keep it in a desk drawer at work, if you’re not comfortable
with it being seen.
