Example Spell for Getting a Job

By David Rankine

You will notice the symbolism is largely Jupiterian - Jupiter being associated with expansion and works to improve ones lot, with a little solar and earthy symbolism in the ingredients, both of which are associated with wealth (patchouli is often used for wealth spells).  You will need the following ingredients - a blue candle, any of the essential oils listed below for purification, patchouli essential oil, incense (frankincense mixed with a touch of saffron would be good, but frankincense will suffice if you cannot get the saffron).

Ritually bathe and purify (essential oils such as chamomile, lavender and sandalwood would be good in the bath).

Cast a circle and call on the elementals in turn to come and aid you in your spell.

Call on the Goddess and God in appropriate forms you are happy with (for example Ganesha as remover of obstacles and god of business endeavours, and Lakshmi as goddess of wealth would be appropriate, or Hades and Persephone as associated with wealth and fortune) and ask for their blessings.

Hold the candle in your hands and visualize your circumstances changing and improving, visualize the sort of job you want.  As your images become clearer and more defined etch the planetary symbol of Jupiter onto the candle about a third of the way down with the point of a knife.  Continuing the visualization begin a wordless chant, making vowel sounds or humming as the feeling takes you.  Focus the energy into the candle.  After a few minutes anoint the candle with patchouli oil (as you do this concentrate on your job situation improving in the desired manner), starting at the middle of the candle and moving up the candle, then moving from the centre to the bottom of the candle, and then a flowing stroke from the bottom of the candle to the top and then back to the bottom again saying:

"From above to below

Flows the pattern of perfection

From desire to manifestation

Flows the pattern of magick

From within to without

Flows the pattern of my will"

Light the candle as you reach the last line (ideally so the flame takes as you say "my will").  Then visualize a blue cord of energy around the candle and make a tying gesture with your hands saying:

"I call on Earth to bind my spell

Air to speed its travel well

Fire lend Spirit from above

Water fill this spell with love

By all the power of three times three

This spell bound around shall be

To bring no harm nor return on me

As I do will so mote it be"

The spellbinding is performed so that you attract what is right for you rather than impose on the will of others.

Feast as desired.

Thank Goddess and God and say farewell.  Thank elements and say farewell.

Close circle.

The candle is left to burn down and the spell will then begin to manifest down from astral to physical.
