Prosperity Devotion

In magick and spirituality, a devotion is a simple prayer or meditation done each day with the goal of putting you in a positive frame of mind while connecting to Spirit. Sometimes we worry about money so much that we create negative circumstances in our finances long before they actually take shape as a zero balance in our bank account. My first step into financial well-being began with writing this special devotion to say each morning and evening to help me create positive feelings about myself and my finances.

Supplies: Your brain.

Instructions: Sit quietly in an area without disturbances. Close your eyes. Take three deep breaths. Begin by saying (either mentally or aloud):

At this moment, there is no yesterday.
At this moment, there is no tomorrow.
At this momemt, there is only today.
Goddess of abundance, come to me, come to me.

Take another deep breath and repeat the last line until you feel yourself relaxing. Say:

I have clothes on my back, food to eat, and a place to stay.
Goddess of abundance, come to me, come to me.

Continue to repeat the last line until you further relax - until the realization of what you are saying is true. (what if it isn't? Say it anyway. Verbalizing and thinking of things you wish to manifest in the present tense is an old magickal technique that assists you in bringing you desires into form.) Visualize the things you DO have, to solidify your words.

Take three more deep breaths and say:

I am perfectly okay.
Goddess of abundance, come to me, come to me.

Repeat the last line until you relax even further. Now imagine yourself as a strong tree, your roots deep in Mother Earth, your branches and leaves reaching out to Father Sun. Raise your arms if you like, to encourage visualization. Allow yourself to become part of the God and Goddess energy of the universe. Let go and feel the euphoria. Say:

I am one with the universe,
And the universe will provide for me in every way.
Goddess of abundance, come to me, come to me.

Repeat these lines until you feel an inner calmness wash over you. Open your eyes and say:

At this moment there is no yesterday, there is no tomorrow, there is only today. I have clothes on my back, food to eat, and a place to stay. I am perfectly okay. I am one with the universe, and the universe will provide for me in every way. Goddess of abundance, come to me, come to me. This is true, as I say. So mote it be!

Clasp your hands together, hold them out before you, and say: 'In Peace.' Move your hands to the right, and say: 'In harmony.' Move your hands to the left, and say: 'In truth.' Bring your hands back to your chest, and say: 'In love.

May the lord and lady shower their blessings upon me. I am the source of my own abundance. So mote it be!'

If your financial worries start to get you down throughout the day, go to a quiet place and repeat the above affirmation.

To enhance this spell:

* Begin at the full moon and perform every day until the following full moon.

* Begin when the moon first enters the sign of Aries (as this is a time for spiritual beginnings.)

* For seeking a new direction, perform when the moon is halfway through Aries (no more, as Taurus influences may steer you toward selfishness.)

* Begin on a Sunday in the hour of the sun.

* Perform on Beltane (May 1) at the rising of the sun.
