Happiness manifestation

TOOLS Bowl of sand | Yellow chime candle | Lighter or matches | Bowl of sun water (see tip)

INGREDIENTS 1 lemon, sliced | 1 orange, sliced | Handful of sunflower petals

This spell is intended to draw in happiness, laughter, sunshine, and all things that come to mind when you think of happy times.

Start by casting a circle and grounding and centering as well as cleansing the tools. Place your bowl of sand in the center of your altar, and place the candle in the center in the sand. Then, place the lemon and orange slices around the candle and sprinkle the sunflower petals in a circle around them. Light your candle and say the words:

Sunshine and happiness, bliss and merriment come my way, by earth, air, fire, and water I summon you into my life, so mote it be.

Take the bowl of water and dip your hands into it, sprinkling some of the water around the candle, taking care not to extinguish the flame. Sit in meditation, visualizing a sunny golden light floating toward you from all four cardinal directions, entering your body and warming you up. Sit until the candle has burned out, then open your circle. Collect the leftovers—you could cleanse the sand and reuse it in another spell—and bury the biodegradable items.
