Leap Day Spell Jar
Hi everyone! I'm so excited for today's post believing in the endless possibilities of Leap Day Magick! The vibe of this post is that delightfully unhinged mantra of: "I believed I could so I did"
To quote Aggie Cromwell from my favorite movie as a kids, Hallonweentown, "Magic is really very simple, all you've got to do is want something and then let yourself have it!" So, with some focus, intent, and magick let's allow ourselves to create the life of our dreams. But first, the caveat...
This spell can only be preformed every four years on the leap year. Now, if you miss your chance this leap year you don't need to wait four years until the next leap year, but get on it and start it asap and mark yourself out four years from when you started! This spell is considered intermediate witchcraft, as seasoned witch like myself call this a "working", instead of a spell. This requires not just intention, but effort, focus, and CONSISTENCY. #justdoit
It's time to work
This spell is one you will be working at every single February for four years straight, you will keep a dedicated eye on the goal you are trying to manifest. Mark your calendars now. You are showing the universe that this is something you want so bad, you are going to commit yourself and your practice to a four year long spell to achieve the goal you desire. Sounds groovy, right?
The purpose of this spell is to manifest a long-term goal, something like "I want to own a home in 5-10 years" or "I want to find my life partner in 5-10 years", "I want to get my degree" etc.
Whatever you want, now it's just time to commit to it. Don't be afraid to also throw in some small stuff like "I want to envoke more passion" into my life, I want to go to the gym"
Leap Year Manifestation Spell Jar Ingredients:
Witchy Warning: In the true spirit of folk magick, I'm going to hound you with, "USE WHAT YOU'VE GOT". By no means don't be spending money on a jar, use an old jar of pickles and decorate and make it your own. If you want to splurge on some trinkets, go to the dollar store.
A medium jar
Dried oranges
Green candle
Note book paper or stationary
Lavender
Dandelions
Money, real or fake
Items representing your hopes and dreams
Pacifier if you want a baby
Key if you want a house or car
Ring pop if you want marriage
Set the space, clear your mind and your energy. I'd suggest trying out some breathwork to quickly get into a great headspace for spell work.
Sit with your ingredients, look at them one at a time, and begin to place items one at a time in the spell jar. Really get focused on the details of each time you're putting in there.
When all items are in the jar, grab your pen and paper and begin to write a letter of your life in 4 years. Be specific, if you want a degree, what is the degree in, what school did you go to? Talk about those in the present tense, as if you already have everything you desire. How many kids do you have? A boy and a girl? Where are you living? I want all the details!
When you're done, fold it up and add it into the spell jar.
Grab your candle wax, and begin to seal the jar as you are sitting with this loving energy you created for yourself.
On the 28th of every February, take a few moments to reconnect with your spell jar. On the following leap day, so four years from now. Open your jar and read the letter. If you can do it on midnight of the 28th, better yet. Mark your calendars witches.
Things to keep in mind during this ritual
This is a ritual done OVER TIME and will require patience and perseverance. Do not lose sight of your goals. Do not give up on them.
This spell can go on for 4, 8, 12, etc. years.
I have an awesome video over on youtube, I will be giving more ideas and doing this spell on camera so we can talk with the intentions and other ideas for inspiration.
How do you honor the leap day? Do you honor the leap day (don't worry, I never have prior). Let me know in the comments and stay blessed. xx
