Fertility Spell

Ostara is named after the fertility goddess Eostre, from which we have the
word estrus. The symbols of the hare and the egg are both connected to
Ostara because of their fertility symbolism.
Another fertility goddess is Oshun, a Nigerian goddess who rules over all
things that make life worth living, such as love, happiness, wealth and
sensuality. While Her sister, Yemaya, rules over motherhood (as well as the
ocean’s depths), Oshun can help get the ball rolling if you are looking to
bring life into the world. Additionally, fertility magic is not just for those
seeking to become parents; artists, writers, entrepreneurs, even gardeners can
benefit from fertility magic.
You will need:

• a pumpkin (This can be a “typical” orange or white pumpkin, but chances are you’ll have better luck finding what is called a calabaza. You can find these in Latin grocery stores and oriental markets. You should hollow out the pumpkin before you begin the spell. You can leave the pumpkin uncovered; once you carve out the top, discard it.)
• five white tea lights
• honey
• cinnamon
• a yellow seven-day candle

Do this spell during a waxing moon cycle.
Cast your circle, and light the yellow candle. Pour the honey into the
pumpkin, and taste it with your finger (this is because whenever you offer
honey to Oshun, you must taste it first, as someone once tried to poison Her
this way). Light the tea light and carefully drop it into the pumpkin.
Say:
“Beautiful Oshun, dancing goddess of the river,
please grant me the fertility I need to see my wishes come true.”
Allow the candle to burn down. Repeat this spell once per night for five
nights, always tasting the honey before dropping another candle into the
pumpkin. After five nights have passed, take the pumpkin to a river and toss
it into the waters, saying, “Ashé, Oshun!”
Open yourself to receiving the blessings that Oshun will send you.
