Manifestation, or any spellwork at all, doesn’t need to be complicated. You don’t need rare or unheard of herbs to craft powerful spells - some of the most potent allies are already in your kitchen. Here are some simple, easy-to-find herbs to keep on hand and how to use them in your manifestation practice:
🌱 Basil - Attracts abundance & success
Add to money bowls, simmer pots, or sprinkle dried basil into your wallet with a whispered intention for wealth. Create an oil or create basil water to anoint candles or sprinkle around your sacred space.
🌼 Chamomile - Draws luck, peace & prosperity
Brew into tea before a manifestation meditation, use for abundance magic, or use in baths to align yourself with gentle, lucky energy. Drink a cup daily and speak your intentions into it - this is a great option to make with sun water for Litha this week. (June 20th)
🍃 Bay Leaves - Wishes, goals & clarity
Write your desire on a dried bay leaf and burn it safely in a fireproof dish to send your wish into the universe. Throw the ashes out into the wind.
🌾 Cinnamon - Speed, passion & power
Sprinkle in spell jars, coffee, or even across your doorstep to call in fast-moving energy toward your goal. Carve or draw your intention into a cinnamon stick and burn as an alternative to incense.
🌿 Rosemary - Cleansing, focus & protection
Burn to clear stagnant energy before a spell, or place under your pillow to receive clear visions and intuitive nudges. Rosemary is perfect for mental clarity, clearing the fog to get clear on your goals and actions needed. Create a rosemary infused spray to use before rituals.
🌸 Lavender - Peace, self-love & alignment
Use in baths or oils to cultivate calm confidence and open your heart to receive. Lavender is also perfect for attracting things towards you, and opening yourself up to spiritual communication.
🔮 Witch Tip : Keep a small “manifestation jar” in your kitchen or altar space. As you use herbs daily in cooking or tea, add a pinch to the jar with a whispered intention. Over time, it becomes a layered spell - charged by your consistent energy and desire.
