You will need:
* Wishing Powder
* The Great Outdoors (This could be your back yard, a park, or forest -- any place where the wishing powder will land on the earth when you release it).
* Anything else you feel you need to personalize your wish.
You will need to craft the wishing powder ahead of time. You can either do this at home in a Circle or, if you
don't mind taking your mortal and pestal along with you, you can make it outside where you plan to use it. (This
isn't too hard to do if you're staying in your own backyard). I used the recipe for Wishing Powder found in Scott
Cunningham's book, "The Complete Book of Incense, Oils, and Brews."
2 parts sage
1 part sandlewood
1 part tonka beans
Grind, mix, and empower.
If you're feeling adventurous, customize your wishing powder to the wish you'll be making. (Example: Crushed
rose petals for bringing love into your life).
Find a spot to make our wishes from. Take a handful of the wishing powder and begin concentrating on your
wishes. (Please do not put yourself in danger to make a wish. A wish is just as powerful whether it's made
standing on a rock on the side of a steep hill or standing in a field). Put your energy and wish into the powder you
are holding. When it feels like you can no longer hold the energy, let it fly. As the powder settles to the ground,
visualize your wishes joining with the Earth, gaining power and strength.
As always, remember the Rule of Three when making your wish. After putting the energy out there, it's
impossible to call it back. Remember the old saying, "Be careful what you wish for, you may get it."
If you need to know where to get tonka beans. You can do an easy seach for them through any search engine to find out
where to get them.Also you might be able to ask at
your local health food store or Craft shop to see if they carry them.**
