THE love Potion ORACLE CARD || THE MODERN GODDESS ORACLE DECK

What does love mean to you?

Yes, you can make a love potion, and if you do it right, you can make someone love you. But is that what you really want? Wouldn’t you rather have your lover offer love freely as a treasured gift? Do you really want to use magic to bend someone to your will?

….nevermind. Don’t answer that, Goddess.

When you pick the Love Potion card, you are being called to do one of the hardest, most selfless acts of all time. Now is the time to extend the love in your heart out into the world.

Love openly and unconditionally.

Love like a boy band song. Love like Jack and Rose on the Titanic. Love the way you want someone to love you.

Because many times, that’s how it works. The love you send out will be the very thing that attracts the love you crave.

Loving fully doesn’t mean being someone’s doormat or being codependent. It’s about staying true to yourself and your boundaries when it comes to your relationships. You’re not being called to sacrifice yourself or your happiness. In fact, if you’re floating in the icy waters of the Atlantic, remember, there’s room for both of you on that piece of debris.

The Love Potion card is more about holding space for someone and showing compassion rather than slamming the door on someone who has hurt you. It’s easy to love the people who love you. Can you leave room for compassion when it comes to your archnemesis?

The Love Potion card indicates that love is the way forward.

Practical Magic for the Modern Goddess

To make a potion to call in your special person, boil some water that has been charged by the full moon.

Remove from the heat.

Add several washed edible rose petals the water. (You can get fresh edible rose petals from a specialty store or online. You don’t want to use any rose petals have been contaminated with harmful chemicals or pesticides.) As you drop each petal in, say one quality you’d like your ideal partner to have. Next, add one or two tea bags of jasmine tea.

Let all of that steep for ten to fifteen minutes. Remove the rose petals and tea bags and add a bit of honey to make you and your ideal lover “stick” together.

Pour the potion into your favorite mug and stir it clockwise eleven times with a cinnamon stick.

Sip your love potion as you watch your favorite romantic movie or read your favorite romantic novel.
