Mirror Mirror on the wall
.
This spell is to attract self love.  
  
Place 4 white candles so that when you are sitting on the floor, there is one in front of you, one behind you and one on either side of you.  (Make sure you can't burn yourself on the one behind you!) Light the candles and turn out all the lights.  Light Rose incense, or use Rose oil, and look into a mirror.  As you look at your reflection, look at all your features, and realise how beautiful you really are.  If you can stand up and still see your whole body, that is good, if not, continue sitting.  As you look at each part of your body, Say:
 
"Blessed be my eyes, that I may see the beauty all around me.
 Blessed be my nose, that I may enjoy the rich fragrances around me.
 Blessed be my ears, that I may hear the voices of those I love.
 Blessed be my mouth, that I may speak, sing and kiss.
 Blessed be my heart, that I may feel the love of those around me.
 Blessed be my breasts (Females), that I may nourish a hungry child.
 (Blessed be my chest (Males), that it be a symbol of my Strength.
 Blessed be my stomach, that it may be filled with the bounty of the land.
 Blessed be my womb (Females), that I may create life.
 (Blessed be my penis (Males), that I may spread the seed of life.)
 Blessed be my hands, that I may touch, soothe and caress.
 Blessed be my arms, that I may embrace life as well as those I love.
 Blessed be my legs, that I may stand up for what I believe in.
 Blessed be my knees, that I may kneel before my Goddess and God.
 Blessed be my feet, that I may walk the path I choose."


If/when you come across parts of your body you don't feel you love.  Don't forget to bless them too.  Find reasons why you might like them (they can be humorous). For example:
 

 "Bless my fat, that I may be cuddly, and interesting to touch!
 Bless my bony elbows, that I may poke people with great success!
 Bless my large bottom, that I may never want for a cushion to sit upon!
 Bless my pimples, for they represent the stars that shine in the night sky!
 Bless my split ends, that I may have 2 of which most people have only 1! "
 
When you have finished appreciating your whole body, smile to yourself and say:
 
 " Blessed be my imperfections, as they prove that I am human,
 I am me, and I am perfect.  I am special, as I am a child of the Goddess, 
She is within me, and around me, I am surrounded by love"


Conclude the spell by making a list of all the wonderful things about you, things you like about your body, talents you have, dreams you have...anything you like about yourself, and place this list somewhere you will be reminded of it often.
