How to Enchant Items

To enchant an item is to infuse it with magickal energy. This energy can come from a variety of sources, including planets, crystals, herbs, or even yourself. 

Some individuals use the words “enchant” and “charm” synonymously as a way to describe the process of infusing something with energy, but for the sake of this post and due to my own beliefs, you enchant something and it then becomes a charm. Alternately, a charm can be something with its own innate energy, like a crystal or herbal amulet. 

The process of enchanting is extremely versatile and there are many ways to do it successfully, so long as you keep your intent clear in your mind. My personal preference when it comes to enchanting items is to allow 12-24 hours (overnight or a full day) for the item to be infused with energy and become a charm - although, this is completely left up to the individual spell-caster. 

Here are a few ideas on how to enchant items, in no particular order:

Surround the item with crystals of corresponding intent

Surround the item with herbs of corresponding intent 

Place the item in a jar filled with herbs that represent your intent

Place the item in front of a candle and meditate on your intent 

Anoint the item with an oil, charged water, or crystal elixir of corresponding intent 

Hold the item in your hand(s) and visualize it filling with the appropriate energy 

Hold the item in your hand(s) and speak your intent aloud

Craft a sigil or symbol to keep near the item in an envelope or sachet

Write your intention on paper and keep in an envelope with the item 

Pair the item with a corresponding runestone or tarot / oracle card in an envelope 

Take the item and put it in a box with other items that represent your intent such as crystals, herbs, talismans, amulets, etc. 

Bury the item in soil with herbs and/or crystals that match your intent (please don’t put salt on your lawn though, unless you want dead grass)

Pass the item through incense smoke that matches your intent 

Attention Spell

This is not a spell to gain needless attention like for love but attention that is deserved and needed. 

You will need the following items for this spell:

Orange Candle

magnet

Hematite

Set up your altar as you see fit. Then invoke the gods of your pantheon. Never invoke a divinity not of your faith or one you know nothing about.

Start with giving to your gods first prayers. Follow by giving your offerings.

Now start the spell by lighting the candle and stare at the flame for a minute or two. Watch it dance. Hold your hands on each side of the candles and chant 3 times:

“I am the sun I am the key All attention be focused on me. See what I do and hear what I say. Let all head turn and face my way. I am the center, I am light I am this flame, dancing so bright. I sparkle interest, wherever I go Let all look at me, be it sunny or snow.”

Into the candle send orange energy of “drawing.” That is to say, drawing others attention to you. Continue to do this for as long as you can hold the visualization.

Now place the magnet in front of the candle, cover it with you hand and send into it the power of attraction. and chant 3 times:

“Magnetism is currently all mine Drawing the attention I deserve. And those that give me such Will be the first that I serve. People attention now drawn to me And as my will, so mote it be.”

Place the hematite in top of the magnet and chant 3 times:

“Stone of iron, ore from the ground To draw attention make this spell sound. As you go with me all day, all night In work and business, give me your might. You shall make all pay attention to me To hear my words and record my deeds And give me the credit that I’m due To these tasks I now ask of you.”

Leave the objects by the candle till it snuff’s itself out. Once out, take the hematite and carry it in you pocket or in a power bundle or satchet. Carry it where you are looking for the attention.

Note: remember not to abuse this spell. If you do it will not work or the stone may end up disappearing on you.

Who Do I Attract?

So, I have a lot of these asks in my inbox right now, and it’s not really an ask meme, it’s an entire area of astrology! I figured it’d be easiest to just make a post on what areas and ways you may attract certain signs or placements.

The placements here are likely to draw in people of certain signs or planetary dominants. Usually, it will attract the Suns, Risings and dominants of these signs. 

Below, in no particular order, are areas of your chart that may attract certain people or placements.

Your Moon Element will attract the same element and it’s pairing one. For example, a fire moon will attract fire and air moons. This is because your inner workings and feelings are understood by each other more so than typically incompatible elements, like water and air.

Your Rising Element will also attract the same element and it’s pairing one, but it may attract the Rising or Sun sign. For example, an earth rising will attract earth suns and/or risings. This is because your flow and ego is attractive to those who think and appear like you too, rather than those who are more reserved or wild than yourself.

Your Rising Sign is likely to attract, and in turn be drawn to, it’s sister sign. This can be in Sun, Rising or Dominance. This is because your ascendant is the opposite of your descendant, and this is the type of person we look for and admire. For example, Virgo Risings have Pisces Descendants, so are attracted/attractive to Pisces Suns, Risings and/or Dominance as the two act as a whole.

Stelliums which you may have will attract people of a certain sign. If you have a Stellium in a sign, such as Aries, you will attract Aries. This could be Aries Sun, Rising or Dominant. It may also attract Mars, Fire or 1st house dominance. If you have a Stellium in a house, such as the 3rd house, you will attract Gemini. This could be Gemini Sun, Rising or Dominant. It may also attract Mercury, Air or 3rd house dominance. A list of possible sign and house stelliums and the placements they may attract is below. The people you attract may not be mathematically dominant in these ways, but they may be prominent in their chart, like in their Moon or Mars placements.

Aries/1st House Stellium: Aries, Mars, Sun, 1st House, Fire dominance

Taurus/2nd House Stellium: Taurus, Venus, Moon, 2nd House, Earth dominance

Gemini/3rd House Stellium: Gemini, Mercury, 3rd House, Air dominance

Cancer/4th House Stellium: Cancer, Moon, Jupiter, 4th House, Water dominance

Leo/5th House Stellium: Leo, Sun, 5th House, Fire dominance

Virgo/6th House Stellium: Virgo, Mercury, 6th House, Earth dominance

Libra/7th House Stellium: Libra, Venus, 7th House, Air dominance

Scorpio/8th House Stellium: Scorpio, Mars, Pluto, 8th House, Water dominance

Sagittarius/9th House Stellium: Sagittarius, Jupiter, 9th House, Fire dominance

Capricorn/10th House Stellium: Capricorn, Saturn, Mars, 10th House, Earth dominance

Aquarius/11th House Stellium: Aquarius, Uranus, Saturn, 11th House, Air dominance

Pisces/12th House Stellium: Neptune, Jupiter, Venus, Pisces, 12th House, Water dominance

Your Dominant Sign will also attract certain signs. For example, if you are Aquarius dominant, it is likely you attract air or fire Sun and Risings, as well as fellow air/fire dominants.

Your Dominant Planet will also attract certain signs as it is the energy dominant within you. A list is given below. The sign in capitals is the sign ruled by this planet, so it is the most likely to be drawn to you. The one in normal case is where this planet exalts, so whilst they are drawn to you, it is not as much as the first.

Sun dominant: LEO, Aries

Moon dominant: CANCER, Taurus

Mercury dominant: GEMINI, VIRGO

Venus dominant: TAURUS, LIBRA, Pisces

Mars dominant: ARIES, SCORPIO, Capricorn

Jupiter dominant: SAGITTARIUS, PISCES, Cancer

Saturn dominant: CAPRICORN, AQUARIUS, Libra

Uranus dominant: AQUARIUS, Scorpio

Neptune dominant: PISCES, Leo, Cancer (People debate whether Neptune exalts in Leo or Cancer - to keep peace I have written both)

Pluto dominant: SCORPIO, Pisces, Aries (People debate whether Pluto exalts in Pisces or Aries - to keep peace I have written both)

For example, someone with Jupiter dominant is likely to attract Sagittarius dominants. Or, equally, someone with Sagittarius dominant is likely to attract Jupiter dominants.

There are even more areas you could personally look, but referring to this list can give you a good idea. For example, if you have Scorpio Venus and Mars, you can tell from this you’re likely to attract Pluto dominants, Taurus Risings, and/or people with 8th house stelliums.

Your Midheaven can also work here for the first attraction! For example, I was instantly attracted to my boyfriend when I first saw him as he was a mystery to me, and as it turns out his Midheaven is the sister of mine. The basic rule for this first sight attraction would be like this:

Opposite signs: Mysterious, wanting to know more, seemingly the same yet different to you

Element match: Similar, you feel they are like you in some way

Compatible elements: You seem to appreciate them for who they appear to be, but know you are not one in the same

Midheaven ruled by same planet: You seem so different, but there is a similar energy within you

You can obviously attract and be attracted to any Midheaven, but these matches would stand out for the purposes of this post
