Charm to Get Someone to Think Sweetly of You (in a romantic sense)

Hey Occulties,

Just a quick charm today - hope you like it! :) It's a form of honey jar which I have found works a bit better on the analytical target (as opposed to a target more apt to act on emotion rather than logic.)

You will need:
The tag from the inside of a hat your target wears frequently
Honey or Corn Syrup
A small jar, like a baby food jar
A red permanent marker, fine-line (like a Sharpie,)
Confectioner's sugar
Star anise - crushed or powdered not full pods,
Cubeb berries OR essential cubeb berry oil (a few drops,)
Rose petals - pink or red
Licorice root chips
A pink candle small enough to stay on the lid of the jar
Optional: an image of the target and petitioner together

Procure the label from a hat your target wears often, and write "Think sweet thoughts of NN" putting the full name of who the target is to think sweet thoughts of in place of NN using the red marker. Place this into the jar, adding a pinch of star anise, cubeb, rose petal, and licorice root, and then powder all ingredients in the jar liberally with confectioners sugar. Now fill the jar with honey or corn syrup, and close the lid tightly.

Hold the jar in both of your hands and, while trying to keep a mental image of your target as you do so, envision yourself sending red and pink energies into the jar until it feels "full."

Place the jar on your altar and secure a pink candle onto it using candle drippings. If you have the optional picture, place this beneath your jar before you start. Holding your hand on either side of the jar say "(Full name of target), like sugar to the ant, or honey to the bee, sweet thoughts of me in your mind constantly,"** three times, and then say "As is my will, so it be!" Allow the candle to burn out. Repeat this ritual at least once a week (fridays being best,) to keep sweet thoughts of you in your target's mind. It tends to work a bit stronger if done when you can feasibly believe your target to be asleep while you do the ritual.

You can use the jar until it gets rotty and gross or if you lose interest in the target you can stop doing the ritual..which I hope you would if you don't want someone thinking about you all the time anymore. ;)

**obviously if the spell is not being cast for you, you will want to change "me" to the appropriate name.

A lot of you have asked me for a simpler honey jar so I hope this complies with that request. ;)

Three Questions You've Asked Me

Hey Occulties,

Just 3 quick questions today! :)

Q: If I cursed someone almost five years ago, what do you think the liklihood is that they would reverse it back on me now?

A: I would say it's incredibly unlikely this person would REVERSE the very spell you cast on them. A long time has passed, according to what you've said, and that would not be the most-effective method of a counter-attack at this juncture in time. While I'd think someone who hasn't struck back at you in five years is not like to do so now, should you really think they have reason to vindicate themselves for damage you had done to them via spellcraft, then they are more likely to attack you using a curse of their own, if they use spells. However, this is assuming your once-target is proficient in spellcraft. They might just kick your ass the old-fashioned way instead or something similar, but if they are not -to your knowledge,- angry or feeling violent towards you, I assume you're safe.

However, if you're just asking what if someone you cursed five years ago decided to take a reversing bath today or something (for another purpose,) and is still entirely ignorant to your having cursed them, then, IMHO you are not apt to be affected by this.

Q: Are magnets just as good as lodestones for spells?

A: I personally prefer manufactured magnets over lodestones in many of my rituals, but I guess I'd say it's USUALLY a matter of preference of the spellcaster casting the spell.

Q: I cast a spell to get my ex back, and when my spell manifested and this person came back to me, they were still a jerk! What gives?

A: I would assume this person was a jerk all along. Just bringing that person back into your life will not dissolve their personality defects just because they return to you - even if to date you again. Often when we lose someone, we deify their image in our minds into something this person really is not (emotionally or personality wise,) and when reality sets in...well, you get to realize you made a jerk come back to you - a jerk who now misses you so very much.

You might stop someone from cheating, you might make them miss you and adore you, but if that person is just naturally churlish in some way, or if they are incompatible to you, or have personality traits you dislike then you have to understand those unlikeable sides of your intended are probably there to stay, and making that person love you will not change their ways in many ways. A jerk that loves you and doesn't cheat on you is still a jerk, in other words.

So...I guess, I'd congratulate you on your success with your reconciliation spell, and give you my sympathies about realizing you fell in love with a jerk.
