We're enjoying record-warm weather today in Western Washington. That's inspired me to write this spell.

| Chamomile Flower Corolla |
Gather:
- Small bowl
- Spring water or filtered water
- Coarse sea salt
- A yellow or orange candle
- A few dried chamomile flowers (optional)
Prepare:
Cleanse the Dish: Wash the dish with warm, soapy water and let it dry completely. If using a clay or terracotta dish, consider leaving it out in the sunlight for an hour to absorb some solar energy.
Prepare the Water: Fill the dish with enough spring or filtered water to cover the bottom by about a half inch. (Do not offend the Elements or the Goddess with chlorinated tap water).
Invoke the Sun: Light the yellow or orange candle and place it beside the dish, focusing on its warm glow. (In lieu of using a candle, simply stand outside to feel the Sun's warmth on your skin).
Salt for Sunshine: As you sprinkle the sea salt into the water, visualize it representing the Sun's rays dissolving into the Ocean, infusing it with warmth. Imagine the salt grains sparkling to reflect Sunshine.
Visualize Your Personal Sun Deity:
EXAMPLES:
- Goddess Sól (aka "Sun" from Norse Traditions) is sister to Moon Goddess Máni.
- Egypt has at least SEVEN Sun God/desses. The most interesting was probably Sekhmet, Goddess of both war and the Sun. Sekhmet also ruled over plagues and was the creator of the desert. (If that doesn't sound like an interesting Goddess, I don't know what does!)
- Nearly every tradition (Philippine, Mayan, Native American, Hindu, African) has some sort of Sun God or Goddess.
- Important for this spell is for you to align with the spiritual allies/deities according to the yearnings in your heart.
EXAMPLES:
- have more confidence at work
- earn more money
- attract your true love
- learn the college material you need to pass your boards
- bring your arguing family back together
- heal your body/mind/spirit
Cast The Spell:
As the Sun Rises: Light the candle (in a fire safe holder). Stand or sit facing the East, holding the bowl of water.
Invocation: As the first rays of Sun appear, speak aloud:
"Great Sun Goddess [e.g., Sól], source of life and warmth, I call upon your radiant energy.
Grant me the power to [state your intention].
Charging: Hold the bowl of water towards the rising sun. Imagine the sunlight infusing the water with golden light.
Visualization: Close your eyes and envision the sun's energy flowing through you, filling you with strength and vitality. See it burning away negativity and doubt.
Empowerment: Open your eyes, take a sip of the charged water, feeling the sun's power course through you.
Sealing: Sprinkle the remaining water on the ground as acknowledgment to Earth for sustaining life, while thanking the sun for its rich blessings.
Letting Go: Allow the candle to burn itself out, symbolizing the release of your intention into the universe.
Chamomile Charm (Optional): European witches use chamomile flowers for protection/In Egypt, the chamomile bloom represents the Sun with its yellow center and white petals/Sunrays) sprinkle a few on top of the water. Chamomile is associated with calmness and joy, perfect for a pleasant warm day.
Charging with Intent: Place the dish on a sunny windowsill or outside in a warm, sheltered location. Focus on your desire for warm weather. See the sun shining brightly, feel the gentle warmth on your skin, and hear the happy sounds of a summer day.
Letting Go: Leave the water to evaporate naturally, carrying your warm weather wish with it. Once the water is gone, you can reuse the dish and repeat the spell whenever you desire a touch of sunshine.
Tips:
- Replace the water and redo the spell if it rains before your desired warm weather arrives.
- Visualize the kind of warm weather that you desire – a gentle breeze, clear skies, or a perfect day for outdoor activities.
- Always be mindful of fire safety when using a candle.
