Petition for Love

I’ve worked with the goddess Venus on many occasions for self love, but I felt I needed to work other her to find love. I don’t often do these sort of things, but seeing how the normal ways are failing me, it couldn’t hurt to do a petition.

Please take note this is not to influence a specific person, but to draw your ideal lover to you.

You will need:

• Rose buds (small handful is more than enough)
• Wide white candle (preferably in a container for safety) can be infused with essential oils/ scents that go with roses
• piece of Rose quartz cleansed and charged (shape is your choice)
• Rose incense
• Pink paper
• Red pen
• Rose infused oil (I have a coconut based one but if you have another or made one, that’s good, too)
• Red cotton cord (I used craft cord). See that it’s a length long enough to wrap a few times around a scroll
• A place to leave the candle lit for a while as you reflect.
• Fire proof dish for burning offerings/ incense
• Optional: romantic music (I used the Classical Romance playlist on Tidal)

Set up your space so nothing will be disturbed. Always better if you can be in a room free from pets and kids for safety reason, if possible.

Sprinkle the rose buds on top of the candle. Make sure they’re not right near to the wick/wicks. Place rose quartz and incense holder next to the candle.

Next, take your paper and write with your red pen:

“Love and Romance find their way to me”

I drew hearts in the spaces that were left for emphasis. Take your finger and run the rose oil over all the words you just wrote. Rub it in if it looks like it’s pooling (some papers are not as absorbing as others so go easy on the oil just to prevent a mess). Roll the paper up and tie it with your cord.

Light the candle and incense. Holding the scroll in your hand, say what words best suit your required petition. Speak out what you seek in your love interest and envision it going into the scroll. Take as much time as you need with this, but once your done, place the scroll between the incense and the rose quartz. Give thanks to Venus for listening and allow the candle to burn for a while until the rose buds have become a part of the candle. Play your music as you sit in contemplation.

The next day, when you first wake, take the scroll and place it in the dish. Give thanks once more and light it, watching it and envisioning your message rising to the heavens for all to hear.

In the coming days, you can use the candle to meditate on the process you’ve just done as the rose buds will be your connection to the words you’ve sent to the heavens.
