Vervain

Needed:

• 1 black candle
• A chalice of water
• Salt
• 2 spoonfuls of vervain
• Petrified wood

Time: Full Moon

Go outdoors and light a black candle. Take a chalice of water to which you add salt, and two spoonfuls of vervain. Mix thoroughly and dive into this water a piece of petrified wood. Pass the rock through the flame of the candle and chant:
“Candle, herb, rock, water, salt,
Hear me as my song is sung,
Age is not my hearts desire,
It is youth to which I aspire,
Candle, herb, rock, water, salt.”

Repeat this ritual and chant seven times. As each chant is said, touch the rock in turn to first one foot, one hand, one shoulder, crown of the head, and then down the other side of the body to shoulder, hand and foot.

When the spell is finished, take the rock immediately to the nearest river, beach or stream and throw it in.
