Recently I have quit my day job in order to pursue my own creative projects. Though I am confident in my ability to learn new skills and that I have the will power to do what I need to in order to succeed, I thought it couldn’t hurt to make a spell for myself! :)
(This is a very basic spell so that you can add whatever you want to it. That way it makes it more personalized.)
The intention: To bring luck, success, and prosperity to my creative endeavors.
A traditional practice in many cultures, this is a spell that works over time with regular feedings!
It’s always interesting to see different versions of the money bowl! There are many different setups and ingredient combinations out there, but as long as you find something that works for you with the right intention, that is what matters!
In order, the ingredients I chose to start my current money bowl with are:
Salt
Basil
Cloves
Bay leaves with sigilos for abundance, luck, and prosperity
A pair or pearl and gold earrings
A quarter with another sigil for prosperity
Salt rock
Opalite
Citrine
Cinnamon stick (I used the one for the initial cleansing of the jar to start, more on this later!)
The steps for how I put together my money bowl are super easy!
Cleanse all items/ingredients.
Write your and intentions on the bay leaves prior to assembly (to set your intentions and remain in a good headspace later).
Light the end of the cinnamon stick, and cleanse your container with that smoke for invoking luck and creativity.
Add your items in the order mentioned above (or your own order if you want to switch it up!). As each item is being added, keep in mind what it represents, further setting the intention for prosperity and abundance.
Set the container in the space of your choice. I put it on my altar, as I am there daily for practice and want to further imbue luck and prosperity into that setup. Those of you who are still in the broom closet could put it somewhere you frequent for the daily reminders and charge.
This spell does love to be fed! Feel free to add more items into your bowl when you see fit! More items could be a reward or milestone for further abundance and progression, or other items for added luck! Either way, the bowl does get hungry… :3
There are many other things that could be added into money bowls! As an example, my next contribution will probably be some type of green stone or crystal. Other things that could be added are:
More money!
Other written representations of your spell or intention such as writing on a piece of paper and sealing by wax or tying off.
Flowers and/or herbs representing abundance, luck, and prosperity.
Crystals representing abundance, luck, and prosperity. Green crystals and/or stones are commonly thought of for this!
Gold jewelry for more abundance and wealth representation.
Whatever you see fit with the right intention that falls in line with wealth and abundance (because this bowl is about money after all…)!
Here are some additional posts I’ve written about money bowl magic (updated):
