Roses are such a beautiful flower to use in magick, plus it can represent so many energies – protection, manifestation, love, self-love, friendship and kindness. Rose petals are a wonderful ingredient for self-care and self-love.
Here are some simple ways you can use rose petals in your self-care magick:
Add them to a small jar with a self-love affirmation and carry that jar around with you or keep it on your altar.
Use the petals to make rosewater, which you can then use in ritual baths or to draw a sigil on your skin.
Add rose petals, rose quartz and an affirmation to a charm bag and then hang the bag on your mirror.
Drink rose petal tea, while visualizing taking in the loving energy.
Add them to a cloth bag for a ritual bath.
Create a mandala out of rose petals, infusing it with your energy as you make it. Meditate with it. Take a picture to use in future self-love meditations.
