			<title>Enhancing Spiritual Studies</title>
			<link>http://www.llewellyn.com/spell.php?spell_id=9994</link>
			<description><![CDATA[This year April 15th is a Wednesday, the day of the week ruled by Mercury, lending itself to the energies of communication, wisdom, and cleverness. No matter where you are along your path, you will want to enhance your spiritual studies at some point. Today you can improve your skills through wisdom and communication. You can commune with Athena, the goddess of wisdom, to accomplish this goal.Take a physical representation of an owl (a symbol of Athena), either a drawing printed out from online or one hand-drawn by you. Color in the image so it becomes vibrant, using colors like purple or violet to represent the spiritual nature of your studies and orange to represent success and ambition. As you color the image, concentrate on what part of your spiritual studies you want to enhance or get better at. After completing the picture, visualize yourself becoming more adept in your spiritual practice.]]></description>

			<title>Cleaning Up Spilled Tea</title>
			<link>http://www.llewellyn.com/spell.php?spell_id=9993</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Sometimes the rumor mill is juicy and everyone is "spilling the tea," as the phrase goes. When you are involved in gossip or the subject of a scandal, do this spell to clean up the spilled teaandmdash;in other words, make the situation far less interesting to people so they move on.Choose an absorbent item, such as a cotton ball or porous piece of wood. Brew a cup of tea and place the absorbent object in the cup. Breathe in the steam and spend some time mulling over all the gossip that's been going around. Visualize this as an erratic energy flowing out every time you exhale, infusing the brew. Continue for as long as it takes for you to become bored and disinterested.Remove the object from the tea and put it someplace where it won't be touched. Dump the tea down the drain. As the object dries up, so will the scandal.]]></description>

			<title>Seed Blessing Spell</title>
			<link>http://www.llewellyn.com/spell.php?spell_id=9992</link>
			<description><![CDATA[The rites of spring will soon be upon us and now is the perfect time to gather the seeds, bulbs, corms, and dormant rhizomes you will be working with to prepare them for planting. This blessing is an energetic boost we can provide for the seeds, encouraging healthy germination and letting them know they will be sown with intention and care. All you need are the seeds (or bulbs, etc.) that you will be planting in the weeks to come and a few moments where you are free to focus.Hold the seeds in your passive hand and outline a triangle over them with your dominant hand. As you do this, visualize green fire pouring from your dominant hand to create a triangle of green flame. Take a deep breath, and as you exhale, push the green flame triangle into the seeds, visualizing them absorbing the energy. Say:Green fire, the witchesandrsquo; flame, bless these seeds in your name!]]></description>

			<title>Licorice Magic</title>
			<link>http://www.llewellyn.com/spell.php?spell_id=9991</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Today is National Licorice Day, a time to honor the black chewy candy flavored with licorice root. If you're among those who enjoy this candy, you can employ it for powerful magic to ground your energy, neutralize anxiety, and protect yourself from all forms of negativity. (You can substitute chocolate, which can be used similarly, provided you like the way it tastes.) Safely light a black candle (or a dark brown one if you're using chocolate). Set some candy on a plate near the candle, exactly as much as you feel like eating. Sit comfortably nearby. Close your eyes and take some deep centering breaths. Consciously relax your body and notice the stabilizing feeling of gravity anchoring you into the earth. Say:Great Goddess, ground me, relax me, and protect me from inner and outer harm. Thank you. Open your eyes. Slowly and mindfully enjoy the candy. As you do, notice your whole being coming alive with an energized clarity, gentle happiness, and calm sense of embodied power. Extinguish the candle when done.]]></description>

			<title>Get Familiar</title>
			<link>http://www.llewellyn.com/spell.php?spell_id=9990</link>
			<description><![CDATA[This is National Pet Day, but for witches, select animals we live with are revered working partners called familiars. Animals and humans have long been involved in a symbiotic relationship. We feed each other in various ways. If you are unaware of the power and magick inherent in a familiar, take some time to learn about it. If you are not allowed to have animals where you live, get creative. You could have a strong animal's presence in the way you dress (animal prints, colors, and textures), or you could have a sculpted or stuffed animal be a part of your magickal workings. The sky is the limit! For those with a familiar already, why not set aside the day to appreciate it? Have a ceremonial meal of appreciation with each of your preferred foods. Make it extra special.]]></description>

			<title>R-E-S-P-E-C-T Success Spell</title>
			<link>http://www.llewellyn.com/spell.php?spell_id=9989</link>
			<description><![CDATA[This spell deals with self-respect. When you respect yourself, others will automatically have more respect for you. You'll need some coarse sea salt, some rose petals, a rose quartz stone, and a bath or shower (preferably a bath). Place the salt and petals in the tub and fill it up (you can add a drop of rose essential oil if desired). Enter the tub holding the rose quartz. Say out loud:Powers of the Moon and Sun, let me shine to everyone. Still clasping the stone, immerse yourself completely in the water for as long as you can hold your breath. Rise, towel yourself dry, and go about your day, putting the rose quartz in a safe place until you want to do the spell again for another boost of confidence. If you are showering, place the salt and petals in the shower pan and hold the stone while you hold your breath as the water falls on you.]]></description>

			<title>Name Yourself Spell</title>
			<link>http://www.llewellyn.com/spell.php?spell_id=9988</link>
			<description><![CDATA[National Name Yourself Day is April 9th. Is it time to try a new name and perhaps even a new persona? Have you ever thought about what name you'd choose for yourself if you could? Your name might convey who you are and what you believe, forming a big part of your identity. What we call ourselves and ask others to call us is a powerful and complex undertaking. Naming ourselves may involve profoundly personal reflections, private or public rituals, and even changes to legal documents.All you need for this spell is a mirror. Repeat this incantation as many times as you wish as you look into the mirror:I am ____ (your name). My name is _____ (your name). I step into my life fully as _____ (your name).]]></description>
