You will need:

• a bowl
• spring water
• herbs for beauty (such as lavender or catnip)
• a white rose that has been separated from the stem
• mirror

A ritual bath or purification ritual is recommended before casting this spell, to 'clean the slate' and allow majick to start anew. Cast the circle and become calm and centered. Sit or stand facing the West. Pour the spring water into the bowl, and hold it up to the Western corner. Chant:

"I hail to the West and the forces of Water.
Hear and aid me in this majick tonight.
Grant me your beauty, shape and form this face and body,
and let me radiate with self-love.
With harm towards none,
and for the free will of all,
so mote it be."

Set afloat the rose on top of the water and stir it with your fingers three times round clockways. Take the flower out of the water and hold it in your hands. Chant:

"By the powers of the West,
The forces of Water,
I charge this flower with love.
Beauty is here, it shines with the power.
Beauty is here, contained in this flower."

Keep the flower in a box along with the catnip, lavender or beauty herb, to remind you of your true beauty. If a friend or loved one needs the power of love and beauty, tell them the story of the rose you have blessed, and give them the rose to continue its power. The best time to cast this spell is during the Full Moon, but you can also do it on a Friday during the Waxing Moon.
