This love spell is meant for those who want to invite a new romantic connection into their life, not to control a specific person. Its focus is attraction, openness, and alignment rather than force or manipulation.
The spell comes from The Modern Witchcraft Book of Love Spells by Alexander Skye and works with candle magic and lunar timing. The candle flame is used as a signal, something steady and visible, representing your readiness for love and your willingness to meet someone who fits you emotionally and practically.
For best results, begin during the waxing moon, at least three days before the full moon. Many practitioners prefer performing this spell when the moon is in Taurus or Libra, both associated with Venus and themes of connection, harmony, and attraction.
Tools and Ingredients
- One pink or red candle in a holder
- Matches or a lighter
- A small piece of silk cloth
Choose pink if you’re seeking affection, emotional closeness, or tenderness. Choose red if your intention includes passion and strong physical chemistry.
How to Perform the Love Spell
- Place the candle in an east-facing window. East is traditionally associated with beginnings, movement, and fresh opportunities.
- After dark, light the candle and allow it to burn for at least ten minutes. As it burns, focus on the feeling of being in a healthy, mutual relationship rather than picturing a specific person.
- Say the following incantation aloud, or adapt it so it feels natural to you:“Magick candle burning bright
Shine your light into the night
Draw to me a love that’s true
One who meets me as I am too.” - Snuff out the candle rather than blowing it out.
- Repeat the spell each night until the full moon or until you meet someone new.
- If the full moon passes without results, wrap the remaining candle in the silk cloth and store it. You may repeat the spell again after the next new moon.
Optional Love Prayer or Mantra
You may also use a short prayer or mantra either before or after lighting the candle. Here are a few options. Choose one that fits your tone and beliefs.
Option 1: “I open myself to love that is mutual, honest, and present. May the right connection find me when the time is right.”
Option 2: “I release past attachments and make space for new love to enter my life in a healthy and balanced way.”
Option 3: “I welcome connection that brings warmth, respect, and shared growth.”
Repeat the chosen words slowly, once or three times, while looking at the candle flame.
This spell works best when paired with real-world openness. It supports opportunity and awareness rather than replacing action. Pay attention to invitations, conversations, and situations that feel aligned during the days you perform it.
Avoid directing the spell toward a specific person. Love spells focused on one individual often create imbalance rather than connection. This ritual is meant to attract someone who is free, available, and compatible with you now.
When done with clear intention and patience, this spell serves as a way to reset your focus and invite a new romantic chapter without pressure or expectation.
