Use the loving energy of the rose along with the fire element’s connection to personal power to boost your self-esteem with this simple spell.
A pink rose
A pink candle and matches
Start your spell as you naturally do (casting a circle, calling in the elements, quarters or deities).
Ground and center yourself with a few deep breaths.
Light your pink candle.
Take a petal off of your rose. As you pull the petal off, say a positive aspect about yourself, such as “I am creative,” or “I am a good friend”. Put the petal around the base of the candle.
Continue removing petals from the rose, taking time to name a positive aspect about yourself with each one and placing them in a circle around the base of the candle. Think about how each positive aspect affects the world around you, how you make it a better place just by being you.
When you finish, notice the circle of petals around the candle. Each petal represents a part of you, and the circle of petals represents being whole. All of these little parts of you make up the amazing person that you are. Seal your spell by stating an affirmation aloud such as, ” I accept myself”, “I add value to the world” or “I love myself more each day.”
Let the candle burn out safely (or blow it out). Release any deities/quarters/elements that you called and end your spell.
Gather your rose petals that are now charged with self-love and place them in a place to dry – between paper towels in the pages of a large book or you can even look up directions on how to dry them in the microwave or oven.
Once your petals have dried, keep them in a pretty jar where you can see them often. Let it be a reminder of all of the wonderful things that make you YOU! You can even use some of the petals in other self-love and self-esteem spells (spell jars, ritual baths, etc.).
