Love Spells

Love spells are among the most sought-after workings in all of witchcraft — and among the most misunderstood. In the Wiccan craft, a love spell is not a way to seize or command another person’s heart. It is a way to open yourself to connection, to draw the right love toward you, to warm an existing bond, or to heal your own heart so that it is ready to give and receive.

Common forms of love magic include:

  • Candle spells — pink or red candles anointed and burned to draw romance and passion.
  • Honey and sweetening jars — a name and an intention sealed in honey to soften and sweeten a bond.
  • Knot and cord magic — tying a wish for love into a braid.
  • Sachets and charms — rose, lavender, and rose quartz carried to invite tenderness.

Love magic answers to Venus and the element of Water. Its correspondences are pink and rose (for tender love) and green (for lasting affection), the herbs rose, lavender, and jasmine, rose quartz, and Friday or the waxing moon for drawing love toward you — all in the correspondences guide.

The one boundary that matters: the Wiccan Rede, an it harm none. Ethical love magic invites a willing love; it never bends or compels a specific person against their will. Focus on the warmth and qualities you wish to draw, and leave others free.
