It's Friday, which is ruled by Venus, the planet of love. The color that resonates with Venus is blue. This is a day to be used for the matters of the heart: familial love, true friendship, loyalty etc. It is not to be confused with lust ( that is the color red ), unless that lust is part of the deeper emotion. It is also a good day to appreciate yourself. Love of self comes before any other love can. I don't mean that you put your own desires before those of your loved one's. Just that before you can expect to be loved, you must learn to love you. Unless you can value and love yourself, how can you expect anyone else to?Isn't it much easier to believe a lover when he (or she) says they love you, if you know that you are indeed lovable? Love spells, such as 'make Johnny love me forever' are in my opinion, worthless and not to be indulged in. However, a spell to bring the love that the Universe has planned for you into your life is very valid. As are any efforts to make yourself more lovable.
And now, on to our Herbs for the day:
Brazil Nuts:
Used for fortunate love affairs. Carry one of these wrapped in cloth of blue - it will help True Love find you!
Butterbur:
Used for love divination and to raise one's spirits by increasing sense of hope and faith. Also Called: Bog Rhubarb, Butterdock, Umbrella Plant, Lagwort, Sweet Coltsfoot. Mix a small amount of this with lavender and put in a pouch of blue. Place it in your pillow so dreams of love will find you!
Well, that's it for now, and for those of you who are looking for love, ( and even those who are not):
Know that you are deserving of a healthy, happy love in your life - but you must begin with a healthy relationship with yourself.
