Spells for Self-Esteem Self-Love Self-Confidence

loveliesbleeding · Unread post by **loveliesbleeding** » Sat Jun 13, 2009 1:35 am

Hi all,

Anyone know of a ritual or spell in hoodoo for love and acceptance of oneself? They say you can't truly love someone if you don't love yourself and i'm begining to see the wisdom in that. What in the LM catalogue might be able to help with that?

loveliesbleeding --

Lack of self-love, self-confidence, or self-esteem takes a number of forms. Here are the two most common scenarios.

"I NEVER HAVE BEEN GOOD ENOUGH"

For some the issue is lack of nurturance as a child which led to self-esteem problems based on never feeling "good enough" or "right" in one's path.

Try using a talisman or mojo or mojo to increase self-esteem and personal power and courage and dress it with oils for self-esteem, courage, and power.

"I AM DOOMED TO FAIL AGAIN"

For others, a specific failure or series of failures (such as, for instance falling into an addition, failing to save a buddy while in a war zone, or getting fired) has led to a lack of self-esteem that grows out of self-loathing at the possibility of repeating one's self-perceived "faults."

Try using a talisman or curio or mojo to increase your acceptance of yourself as well as your sense of personal mastery, and add a hyssop herb bath and Psalms 51 if you feel that your lack of self-acceptance is due to events that were actually in some way your own fault.

Here are the oils most often recommended for personal development. Some affect the "not good enough" aspects of self-esteem issues, others affect the "doomed to fail" aspects, and some affect both aspects. You can order right here in the forum by clicking on the blue Add To Cart button:

I am very supportive of using hoodoo spellcasting for personal development.

I suggest that a Honey Jar spell (to sweeten you to yourself), or a Love Me spell kit can be used with ONESELF as the target to encourage self-love and the development of compassion and care with oneself.

you can also use a dollbaby (DOL-FLA-REOP) with your picture on it, your hair on the head, some of your blood on the chest, and with clothes made from some of your old unwashed clothes that you liked and sacrificed for the purpose. work with the doll every day and tell the doll how much you love the doll (having baptised it with your name).

focus on formulae that will bless (e.g. Blessing) and bolster love in a well-rounded rather than romantic and sexual manner (Love Me, Marriage, Return to Me, Adam and Eve) for oils and other products to use in laundry or on candles, etc.

the essentials that appeal to me here are Rose-associated, such as Rose Geranium, Rosewood, Rose blend) and Vanilla.

some people begin with a god or saint who will love them and appeal to them as an exemplar for this type of action and result. Jesus is a very good choice here, since Jesus is well-known for forgiveness and charity. Sacred Heart of Jesus (or of Mary, or if you're Hindu, of Hanuman!) may be of benefit to you in terms of iconography or formulae.

be imaginative. focus on your well-being and on your support and composure. as catherine suggests, add bolstering power and confidence components to your work.

I recommend scrubbing yourself with seasalt and rinsing off in a cold shower. Then prepare a warm bath, containing blessing and love oils, maybe some essential oils. If you have a favourite scent, it's usually a good one to go with.

Before you step into the bath, if you are female take a bowl of rose petals, if male, try a bowl of John the Conqueror root chips. Drop them into the bath one by one, and as you do bless them with a positive message. eg. "I have great love to give, therefore I have great love in myself" or even just "I'm awesome!"

Then have a nice long soak in your positivity.

Recently I've been dating someone who is quite possibly the man for me. Part of me knows that I love him, but I have a tendency to push people away and I've been doing that to the point where I am ready to break up with him and don't remember why I wanted to spend my life with him in the first place. He is utterly perfect and in love with me.

What can I do to make me fall back in love with him as I was when we first started dating?

I was thinking of doing a honey jar with both of our names, hair, pictures, etc, but since he doesn't really need any sweetening, I'm not sure if that's the best route to take.

silver_disc · Unread post by **silver_disc** » Fri Nov 13, 2009 4:06 am

First, cleanse yourself. A 13 herb bath would be just the thing. Then, healing work. You can also sweeten yourself to him with a honey jar- it will affect him as well to some extent, but really, a little sweetening won't do any harm

Good luck!

Devi Spring · Unread post by **Devi Spring** » Fri Nov 13, 2009 8:31 am

If you make the intent of the honey jar clear - that it is to sweeten YOU to him, then that is the way that it will work most strongly.

cabriellenil · Unread post by **cabriellenil** » Fri Nov 13, 2009 10:32 am

Oh, I've always had the same problem in relationships. It really depends on what your issues are. A while ago I had an excellent relationship reading by Dr Johannes about my ex. which also pointed out my life-long issues, in such a direct but also compassionate way that I truly made up my mind to deal with it.

Not to say you also need a reading, but you may want to do some works on yourself for a start. In my case I'm going for serious cleansing (say 13 herbs bath, then road opener, etc.) and self-empowering work so I won't be affected by fears/insecurities/worries in the way I handle a relationship anymore (and also in other areas of life). You might also consider the cleansing, then some work to either heal or strengthen or sweeten yourself (you can do a Love Me on yourself for self love even), depending on what you need to tackle. Then do the sweetening work on your relationship.

Hi everyone. I am hoping someone can guide me on exactly how to do a candle spell for myself. For my own reasons, that I won't go into, I would like to work with St. Dymphna. I just received my order today from LM but I'm not exactly sure what all I can do with it. I'll list what supplies I have on hand that I THINK would be helpful. There are a few I'm not sure of though but I will list them anyhow since I am not very knowledgeable in this area and there might be uses for things that I'm not aware of.

White skull candle
Red, white, pink, purple, black, yellow, and brown candles
Borage Flower
Golden seal
Coltsfoot Herb
Comfrey root
Calamus root chips
poppy seeds
cubeb berries

Lavender Love Drops
Blessing oil
St Dymphna Oil
Clarity Oil
King Solomon Wisdom oil

I also have a St Dympna, St Jude and St Anthony cards. As I stated in the topic I would like to work on my self esteem but I would also like to be able to see my situation more clearly and be able to step back and make decisions for the right reasons.

Thanks in advance for everyone's help.

Hugd,
Hope

Just a note....do not buy things that you have no idea what they are for. It would appropriate it for you to talk to the people at lucky mojo and ask what products would be good for your situation. Otherwise you might be wasting money. I would use st dymphna to help a person overcome any mental illness or any maladaptive ways of thinking when it comes to the mind.

St. Jude is the saint of hopeless cases. So i would not work with him unless its something dire, and until you are ready to pay him once he has granted your petition. He needs a payment back or he will take away what he gave you or more.

http://www.luckymojo.com/saintjude.html

You could use the skull candle with blessing oil/clarity oil. You can utilize a red candle for strength and wisdom with king solomon, and borage flower. Lavender drops are used by those of the same sex so you can put that on pink, or read.

Brown candle would be worked with for saint anthony. This can be used with the st Anthony card.

Calamus and poppy seeds are something you would want to use to work with controlling or dominating someone.

Coltsfoot is a type of healing herb so you can utilize that with any healing work that you do.

The skull candle can be used for clarity where you can put clarity oil

Thanks sky. When I ordered some of the products I had different interests in mind but since then (thanks to you and Brida) I have decided to concentrate more on myself. So as I am new to this I wasn't sure of all the uses of some of the things that I have got. I have read up on them but as I am reading the forum I have noticed people using things for other purposes that I wasn't aware of so just in case I was missing something I just listed most everything I've got.

Thanks for you input. You have always been so helpful. Is there a specific day that would be better for working on this or should I do it over a course of days?

Thanks again,
Hope

starsinthesky7 · Unread post by **starsinthesky7** » Fri Jan 22, 2010 7:12 pm

It depends what your objective is as to the specific day. And I would do it over a number of days. I would recommend burning the candle over 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, or 13 days.

Repeating your spell for a course of days is great because it is like saying the spell 7 times over 7 days. However, if you wanted to you could burn it down in one single day.

I was thinking about casting a spell on myself for self-discipline.

Any recommendations. And if you need an example, I want to learn the piano, but I tend to get lazy and not do anything. I want to learn a foreign language, but I get bored/lazy and not do anything.
The whole,"I don't feel like it" syndrome. I want to exercise more, but I don't feel like it.

So, when I say self-discipline that's what I mean. Enough self-discipline to fight laziness.
I want to be more determined and to actually DO something. Not want something and do nothing at all.

Mind you, an oil isn't going to literally drag you off the couch to hit the gym.

When I need that extra oomph to complete tasks, I'll wear Power Oil. Van Van oil or a Van Van mojo work wonders, too. The oil smells wonderful and reminds me that I have things that need to be done NOW!

Good luck!

You can work a candle on yourself, maybe a skull candle.

Place pictures of what you desire: desire, talent, skill etc under the candle. You could cut out pictures of a piano or place words in the language you want under the candle. Dress the candle with products like Mastery, John the Conqueror (for personal power), Power, Wisdom of King Solomon, but I would also add in Cast Off Evil to cast off the habit of laziness. I would burn this over a period of days and anoint yourself daily with the oils or take the corresponding baths.

Make yourself a mojo hand as well to help you overcome your obstacles and to increase your ability in these area. Consider things like Five Finger Grass and Solomon's Seal Root.

Good luck!

loveliesbleeding, you've gotten some very good advice here. Miss Cat, of course, has deep roots in old-fashioned hoodoo. The ritual nagasiva posted is well-thought-out, and NotDorianGray's is so goshdarn pretty!

John the Conquer does have "butch" energy, but you may need some of that even if you're a female. (I'm not a gender essentialist, can you tell?

) If passivity is part of your problem, John the Conquer may be a good friend to you.

In addition to any or all of the above spells and products, I'd like to urge the use of Clarity or King Solomon Wisdom, so that your assessment of yourself is honest and true; folks with low self-esteem are often ashamed for no good reason. If your troubles are related to a bad religious experience, you may even have found yourself repenting of your good works -- I myself wasted far too much time this way.

Hope this helps,

Queen Elizabeth Root in Oil, Power Oil, and Master Key Oil could also be added to the list that Devi gave, for use in anointing candles.

As for herbs, you should look into Yarrow, Life Everlasting, John the Conqueror, Queen Elizabeth, Master Root, Bay Leaf, and Master of the Woods herb.

On the Lucky Mojo and Herb-Magic web pages for each of these oils and herbs, you will find suggestions for how to use them in candle rites of self-empowerment and self-confidence.

It's not strictly hoodoo, but as LM carries a line of condition products for working this way, it's not completely off-topic - but I find the Hindu Goddess Durga to be especially powerful in aiding issues of self-love, self-worth, self-confidence, self-esteem and the like.

I like to combine candle and bath work with mantra work. LM has a lovely line of Durga condition products for your use in the bath and on candles. I would work with red candles for this as red is associated with Durga, with strength, passion, and protection. You could also use purple for personal empowerment. The Durga mantra that I use for self-empowerment and self-confidence is: OM AIM HREEM KLEEM Chamundayei vichei namaha

If you're open to working with a Hindu deity, then this may be another option you could explore.

Hi from Italy,
I need the force and determination to overcome the obstacles in my life...especially for my lack of motivation, insecurity, self-doubt and depression, anxiety....My life is immobile from 4 years...
What do you suggest me other than go to a doctor...P.S. I have taken antidepressant for 10 years but with minimal results...

Which altar candles could suit for my situation?
Thanks

Start by petitioning St. Dymphna to aid you with your depression, and the Blessed Dr. Jose Gregorio Hernandez to help lead you to the health care providers and treatments that will be effective in your case.

Use Healing, John the Conqueror, and planetary Sun products to help up your energy, increase physical vitality, motivation, personal empowerment, self-confidence, and health.

You may wish to have a full reading and rootwork consultation to help you form an individual plan of attack that will be most effective in your case.

I would recommend that along with candles set on your behalf, that you undertake some spiritual baths to help you start moving forward. You may want to consider doing a nice spiritual cleansing of your home with Chinese Wash at the outset of this, to help remove the heavy energy that has no doubt accumulated in your living space during your wellness challenges. Try to give yourself a spiritual fresh start and the best chances for success and moving forward.

Since antidepressants haven't been very helpful, you may wish to talk to a doctor or naturopath about other options available, as they are out there. Things like Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, homeopathic approaches, nutrition alterations, and more. St. Dymphna and Dr. Jose Gregorio Hernandez can be of great aid in searching for the approach that will be right for you.

Crucible of Courage (oil, powder, bath) is powerful for inner strength and fortitude. For depression, I highly recommend Rose of Crucifixion (also in oil, powder, and/or bath). I have used Rose of Crucifixion for my own depression with amazing results. There is no greater healer or comforter than Jesus... "O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear, all because we do not carry everything to God in prayer"... take it to the Lord and he'll fix it!

Hi there,

Just picked up on this thread. I too have suffered from depression for many years and struggled with motivation, energy and feelings of utter despair. Recently I have gone back on the anti-depressants which have helped to lift the black cloud somewhat but, in addition to this I have been using John the Conqueror products with great results. Each morning I annoint my crown with JTC oil asking for strength and determination. When I feel the need I also burn an engraved purple taper candle, dress it with JTC oil and place my petition under the candle or dish. I have not worked with St.Dymphna but I regularly burn novena candles to St.Michael, he makes me feel incredibly safe & protected. I'm also planning to work with Crucible of Courage products (just waiting from my order) which I'm going to add to the JTC to help overcome the fears which are holding me back in finding a better job. I hope this helps a little as I really do know what you're going through, keep strong! x

When suffering from depression and other symptoms it is very useful to consider using cleansing baths, cleansing the home and adding protection to the living quaters in addition to the strenghtening products above.

Uncrossing Baths - http://www.luckymojo.com/bath-uncrossing.html, Camphor Essential Bath Crystals or http://www.herb-magic.com/13herb-bath-13.html are all useful. You should soak in the bath for at least 15 min before proceeding with the ritual rub. i possible, strive to bring some of the used bath water to be disposed of in a crossroad at all times.
Salt, Salpeter and Baking soda baths can be considered as well.

Chinese Wash with a dash of Buffalo Ammonia used in floor wash will remove heavy energies, thoughts and lingering emotions from your home. If they are not removed they tend to keep your mind looping in old habits. Adding some cleansing incense - like "Uncrossing" with a pinch of Dragons Blood Resin and ground coffe will help to clean the Air. Camphor resin http://www.herb-magic.com/camphor-resin-incense.htmland Benzion http://www.herb-magic.com/benzoin.htmlare also useful incenses to be burned in moderate amounts.
Camphor resin should also be placed in the corners of the bedroom.

Protection will add a nice, comfortable and secure feeling to such a house and will prevent negative influences from returning.
Protection satched Powder - http://www.luckymojo.com/powder-protection.html with a little addition of crushed Bay Leaf, Mint and Rue is usually enough. Add some to each corner of the house and by the treshhold. If you had a reading telling you that someone worked against you or you have some nasty spirit lingering you could add Railroad Spikes - http://www.herb-magic.com/railroad-spike.html to each corner. Any power should be replaced every 2 weeks and the spikes shoud be fed with a dash of whiskey.

It should also be added that seeing an ethical root worker for a hands-on cleansing in addition to medical care would probably speed up recovery a lot more than any other kind of work.
Best of luck to you.

Hello, everyone! Per Mama Micki's advice, I am posting to ask for forum members' experience and suggestions on the items I recently received from LM. I am so excited to start using them, but I find myself hesitating on where/how I should start.

Right now, I have:

1 Return To Me Oil
1 Follow Me Boy Oil
1 Crown of Success Oil
1 King Solomon Wisdom Oil
1 Reconciliation Oil
1 Fast Luck Oil
1 Attraction Oil
1 Money Drawing Oil
12 4" Altar Candles, Pink
3 4" Altar Candle, Green

I personally want to stick to something simple, since I am just starting off. I think the self-esteem boost from doing something relatively uncomplicated will do wonders for my confidence in my work.

I was so sure I'd know what to do with these items once they arrived, but now I'm doubting myself. I may be inexperienced, but I know doubt is probably one of the worst places to start my work with. I think I just need a little push towards the right direction. So, any ideas, anyone? Would love to hear your suggestions on what someone new to this kind of work, like myself, could do with these items. Any experiences, insight, ravings, rants-- hit me with anything you've got. I would love to hear your experiences.

In addition to the actual work, what kind of steps do you take to prepare, if any? Or do you simply dive into it? Do you use the oils as a personal scent? If so, do you just put it on yourself in the morning, like any cologne/perfume? Does the lack of "focusing" take away from its effect?

Sincerely,
Nix. <3

I strongly recommend that you get some magical coaching which you can get from an AIRR reader.

www.readersandrootworkers.com

You can learn how to use oils here
http://www.luckymojo.com/oils.html

There are MANY different ways in how to use the work.

You may want to start with the working on the product pages.

www.luckymojo.com/attraction.html
www.luckymojo.com/fastluck.html
www.luckymojo.com/followmeboy.html
www.luckymojo.com/kingsolomonwisdom.html

On the forum, we have different categories that may help answer your questions on how to use each product

www.luckymojo.com/hoodoo.html is another good source.

Take the time to learn some hoodoo through the forum as we have discussed many of these topics before so you should be able to find the answers quickly. If not then some personal guidance from a rootworkers will be helpful as well with magical coaching.

MissMichaele · Unread post by **MissMichaele** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 10:05 am

starsinthesky7 is absolutely right: Take the time to learn the spells on each product page.

Also, if you haven't already, read miss cat's online book:

Hoodoo in Theory and Practice: An Introduction to African-American Rootwork by Catherine Yronwode
http://www.luckymojo.com/hoodoo.html

And something I learned the hard way: Don't jump into a big project with both feet, or you'll leave out crucial steps. Besides, many effective old-timey tricks are simple, requiring nothing more than a few commonly available ingredients and a word of prayer.

Having said that, I am SO glad to see you bought King Solomon Wisdom Oil! That'll bring discernment to all your work; I tell my clients to put it into all their love and prosperity work.

Best of luck,

Miss Michaele

I anointed myself with 1) Attraction Oil (Over my heart, on my fingers and arms); 2) Follow Me Boy (just a dab on my neck); and 3) Crown of Success (head) this morning. Last night, I dabbed King Solomon's Wisdom on my temples before going to bed, where I usually do most of my thinking. I think I will be modifying my morning ritual over the next few days. I would do probably do well in sticking to maybe just one or two oils.

I also did a simple candle ritual this morning, which I'll be posting in the appropriate sub-section. Again, I'm sticking to the simple stuff. I agree with you, Miss Michaele. I don't want to dive into a big project that will only overwhelm me. Do you happen to have examples of these "old-timey tricks"? I'm still rifling through the forum, but it's slow work when the keywords are such general terms. Gotta say, I'm lovin' every moment of this, though. There's definitely a sense of "finding magic" in the air today. =)

Hi Nix,

old-time tricks are usually the simplest but often the most tried and true. They're the tricks like making sure you buy a new broom, new salt and a fresh loaf of bread when you move into a new house. Like placing one of your hairs in the hat-band or cap-band at the forehead of a beloved one's hat or cap to keep him thinking of you. Like stirring a cup of sugar with a licorice stick while telling your children to behave and listen to you before baking that sugar into cookies. They're the tricks you'll learn by talking to people.

Alongside the amazing advice you've already been given, consider just a daily anointing of your head with Crown of Success and King Solomon Wisdom oils as suggested on the information page for King Solomon Wisdom products. It's simple. It's very potent. And you should see long-lasting results which will benefit your life overall.

Blessings and best of luck.

Hi,

I want to do a working for self-empowerment and would like some guidance.

I plan on doing a cleanse first with hyssop because I'm really connected to Psalm 51 then anointing myself with an oil blend maybe a personal talisman too. I've been thinking of using a blend of Attraction, Crucible of Courage and Queen Elizabeth oil, maybe Crown of Success or Good Luck oil? I also thought about Protection or Van Van to keep away negative influences/thoughts. I don't want to use more than 4 maybe 5 at the most.

Maybe Protection or Van Van incense powders instead?

Hi Wildchild453,

to select the oils or powders best suited to empowering yourself, look at what qualities you most want to bring out in yourself and then pick oils aligned with those. Out of the oils you've mentioned, an excellent combo would be Van Van, Crown of Success and Queen Elizabeth oil since that covers qualities feminine, lucky and successfull. The Van Van in the formula would also make it a great blend to anoint a personal talisman with.

One alternative would be to call the shop and see if they can prepare an amulet such as a Gau Prayer Box with your concerns: http://www.luckymojo.com/gau.html

Blessings and best of luck.

Thank you aura, I've never heard of a Gau prayer box before so I'm going to do some research on it.

I think I will do an oil blend of Crown of Success, Crucible of Courage, Queen Elizabeth and Van Van. Someone posted in another thread that:

Crucible of Courage is usually employed as an adjunct to other oils when the person is shy, afraid to shine, afraid of failure, hanging back from challenges, and in need of some backbone.

and I think I can benefit from those qualities.

I have a few more questions, if you can answer them?

Is there a particular reason I shouldn't use Attraction oil or is it better to put it aside for something more specific?

I planned to mix the oil with a carrier oil so I can use some on my skin after my showers. I know Crown of Success normally goes on the head should I keep it out of the carrier oil blend?

I can't decide which day of the week would be best, Sunday or Monday, maybe even Friday. Do you have a suggestion?

Thanks for the help!

I would work with Sunday. If you want to dilute the Lucky Mojo oils, which are already skin-safe and in a carrier oil, use any oil that goes with your intention.

Hi Wildchild453,

like you suggested, I'd keep attraction out of the blend in favour of something more specific. If you want an oil that makes you generally more attractive, strong and vital - perhaps the Sun oil from the planetary line of products would fit the bill nicely: http://www.luckymojo.com/mojocatoils.html#planetary

For the Crown of Success, although you're right that it's traditional to anoint the head, there's no reason that you should keep it out of your combination as it also works well for dressing the body.

For the day of the week, Sunday is a great day to work for empowerement. Mondays are good for healing. Friday is nice for self-love. Depending on what you need more any given week, switch the day to suit your mood. Any day is a good day to work if the work needs doing.

You don't necessarily need more carrier oil, as Lucky Mojo Oils are already formulated in a carrier oil, but adding more oil is fine. You can also dilute them by blending them with your bath wash or with lotion if you wish. See this thread:

Blessings

Hello,

I'm new to this forum so please forgive me if my post is in the wrong section..

I'm having a little trouble with my conjure. Lately, I seem to have no problem working for others with great success yet my personal work doesn't seem to.. well.. work! I have spoken to different workers who have suggested things such as uncrossings and road openers and such. I have done those but still seem.. challenged. This is a new issue for me, as I have never had this trouble in the past. It has been like this for the last few months really. When my workings do come through, it takes a looonngg time to see the results. For example, I worked recently for my partner and I to be hired at a place here in town. My partner was hired immediately, but my paper work is sitting on a desk still. When I contact personnel she tells me I have the job she is just waiting for the manager to push it through. It almost been a month since she told me that. This is just one example of how my conjure works for others but not for myself. Again, this is a new issue that I haven't had trouble with in the past. Any suggestions? Thank you so much!

1. I bet your paper work is sitting there due to Mercury Retrograde (google it and/or research it here on the forum) Basically it can cause delay in times of communication.

2. In terms of your other work, I would get a reading but it could be the universe is taking its time in granting it to you, you could not have the gift to work in all areas of rootwork, or it could depend on the circumstances. I would do some uncrossing work, road opener along with master key as well as getting a reading to see what else coudl be going on here.

Thank you for your response! Though I do understand mercury retrograde and am sure it's part of the problem, this issue I'm dealing with doesn't get better when mercury isn't retrograde. I'm not really sure what to say about not having the "gift" because I don't want to sound arrogant. I've been practicing rootwork for about 10 years with great success... Until now (being the last 6-7 months), and only when I work for myself it seems. I dunno, it's just frustrating to say the least. I'm sure I will benefit from a reading though. I will certainly look into that. Thanks!
