Honey Jar Spells

Honey Jar Spells

The Honey Jar Spell is one of the oldest in the world. There are so many variations that i call it a "spell family."

In the oldest version that i know, there is actually no "honey-jar," just a plain white cream-saucer in which you burn a candle on the person's name, surrounded by a poured-out ring of syrup. This old-fashioned method has the disadvantage of drawing flies. Another early version employs a hollowed-out red apple or red onion to hold the honey and the name-paper. The apple or onion may be shut up in a tin and a candle burned on the tin's lid -- to it placed in the bottom of a flower pot, with a plant grown on top of it to hide the spell. The plant takes the place of candle, but it radiates the intent of the spell just the same.

As packaged sugars, syrups, and sweeteners became available from grocery stores during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, another variant that developed employed a box of sugar instead of a jar of honey. By the mid 20th century, the honey-jar version of the spell gradually replaced the old cream-saucer, cored apple, hollowed onion, and sugar box versions.

HONEY JAR AND CANDLE SPELL TO SWEETEN SOMEONE TO YOU

This magic spell can be worked on Anyone's name you want to sweeten. Depending on what relationship the person has to you, what special items you put into the name-packet, the colour of candle you choose, and the oil you dress it with, this trick will cause the person you name to like you more, to love you more, to favor your petition, to want to help you, to be sympathetic to your cause, or to forgive any wrongs you have committed. It can be used to influence and sweeten a judge in a court case, a loan officer at the bank, a boss from whom you want a raise, a teacher in your school from whom you want a good grade, a lover with whom you want a reconciliation, an in-law who has been back-biting you, or friend who has cut you off because of a foolish quarrel.

You will need:

a jar of sweetener (see below)
a piece of paper
a pen
optional herbs, curios, and/or bodily concerns
a candle (choose the appropriate colour )
A candle-dressing oil such as olive oil

Get a small jar of sweetener. This can be honey, Karo Syrup, Crystal Syrup, home-made brown sugar syrup, Log Cabin Syrup, Vermont maple syrup, Bre'r Rabbit Black-strap Molasses or whatever you desire -- as long as it is in a container with a metal lid. You can buy the goods in a pint-size glass Mason jar or pour the sweetening of your choice into a jar of your own at home. All that matters is that it should be a short, squat jar with a metal lid, filled up to the shoulder of the jar.

In the old days, when skin colour was a lot more important to people than it is now, it was recommended that the colour of the sweetener match the skin of the person you wanted to sweeten. Thus, for a white judge, you might use Crystal Syrup, and for a Latino loan officer you might use light brown sugar syrup, and for a dark-skinned lover you might use Bre'r Rabbit Black strap Molasses. Frankly, these days specifying a person's skin colour is not as meaningful as it once was (for which we can all be thankful), and today many folks prefer to use honey for the spell, no matter what the target's skin colour is, because it is a natural sweetener and not man-made. I believe that if you just follow your own intuition and decide which sweetener you like the best, you can be confident that you have made the right choice.

Next, prepare your paper. Again, in the old days, we would be told to use white paper for a white person, tan paper for a high-brown, and rough old grocery-bag paper for a person of dark colour, but these days the type of paper you use can simply be a matter of personal style. I use the smooth, tan-coloured light-weight shopping bag paper because that is my choice, based on the way i was taught, which was that such paper is "pure paper" and better than parchment from the art-supply store. I prepare my paper by tearing it neatly on all four sides so there is no machine-cut edge. Of course some folks prefer parchment paper more, and they trim it square with scissors -- and the spell still works for them. So go ahead and prepare your paper just as you wish and that will suffice.

Once you have got your paper together, write the person's name three times on it, one name under the other like so

John Russell Brown
John Russell Brown
John Russell Brown

Then you rotate the paper 90 degrees and write your own name across the person's name, also three times:

Abigail Samantha Little
Abigail Samantha Little
Abigail Samantha Little

The result will be that the two names are crossed over each other, like a cross or a tic-tac-toe grid, and the other person's name will be under yours. This is called crossing and covering their name. If the sweetening is being done for love, you can use a red ink pen. Otherwise, the colour of the ink does not matter.

Now all around the crossed names, write your specific wish in a circle. If you need a guideline, lightly sketch the circle-shape with a pencil and then follow around it when writing with your ink pen. You must write your wish in one continuous run of script letters, with no spaces -- AND WITHOUT LIFTING YOUR PEN FROM THE PAPER. Do not cross your T's or dot your i's. Just write the words in one run and be sure to join up the end of the last word with the beginning of the first word so the circle is complete. Then you can go back and cross your T's and dot your i's. To make it easy to connect the word together at the end, i have found it best to make my petition in the form of short commands, such as "help me favor me help me favor me" or "love me love me love me" or "forgive me come back forgive me come back."

If you make a mistake -- for instance, if you lift your pen in the middle of writing your petition-circle -- throw away the paper and start it all over again. You want it to be perfect.

Other ingredients can be added to the name-paper if you wish -- two rose petals for a love spell, a lump of sugar for a family member, two clove buds for friendship, bayberry root or sassafras root for a money spell, a pair of Adam-and-Eve roots for love, two small Lodestones for sexuality, a pinch of deer's tongue leaves for a proposal of marriage, a square of camphor for cleaning out bad things of the past, and so forth.

If you are sweetening someone for love, then in addition to the name-paper and whatever optional herbs, roots, or minerals you choose, you must also get one of the person's hairs and one of your hairs. If the hairs are long enough, tie them together. Otherwise, just lay them crosswise to each other. In either case, place them on the name-paper. Don't ask me what to do if you can't get their hairs 'cause i can't help with that. Either work the spell without the hairs and expect a much lower rate of success or get the hairs! Don't load the paper up with lots of other stuff thinking that if you can't get the hairs that six different love-herbs and two lodestones will be as strong as two hairs. They won't be.

Fold the paper toward you to bring what you want your way and speak aloud your wish as you do so. Turn the paper and fold it again, and again, always folding toward you, to bring what you want your way. Speak aloud your wish each time you fold the paper toward you. Fold it until it will not fold any more.

Open the jar of honey or syrup. To make room for the folded paper packet, you will need to eat some of the contents. Take out a spoon's worth, and as you eat it, say, "As this honey [or syrup] is sweet to me, so will i become sweet to John Russell Brown [or the name of the person you are working this on]." You can do this three times -- taking out three small spoonful of sweetener and speaking your wish aloud each time. Push the folded paper packet down into the jar and close up the lid.

Dress an offertory candle (a 50 cent, 6" long candle or a 25 cent 4" long one, nothing fancy) with an appropriate anointing oil, or use Special Oil No. 20, which is specifically indicated in this type of spell. Use a white candle for general blessing and healing, a red one for sexual love, a pink one for reconciliation, a brown one for a court case, and s o forth. (For a longer list of colour symbolism, see the page on candle magic.)

Stand the candle on the lid of the closed-up jar and light it. You can melt the candle to the lid with hot wax if need be.

Let the candle burn all the way out. Do this every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, for as long as it takes. Add teach new candle on top of the remains of the last one. I have seen people's syrup-jar spells like this done for court cases that were continued for so long and required so many candles that you could not see the jar under all the dripped-on wax!

A HONEY JAR SPELL TO GET CHILD SUPPORT FROM A BABY'S DADDY

Many women who are faced with a situation where their baby's father will not pay child support try to hurt the man, or rule him, or control him, but there is a better way, and that is to cause him to WANT to pay what the law says he must pay -- and to love his baby while he pays, as well.

To work the sweet side of a case like this, you can make a honey jar on the mama, the baby and the daddy -- all of them in one honey jar. Try to get something personal from each individual -- a hair, for instance. If the daddy is estranged or lives far away, his hair may be hard to capture, but do try to get it -- and if that won't be possible, then get his handwriting, or something he touched, like maybe a fiber from a stuffed animal that he gave to the child.

Put the personal items in a name paper with the mama and the daddy names written 9 times each, side by side in two columns (because they are no longer a couple) and the baby name crossed over both, holding them all together. Then, around and around the names write: "We are family, forever and in all ways, and let no one put this family asunder."

Next, in the corners of the paper, draw four eye-shapes, but just the outlines with no eye-lashes or iris and pupil in the centers. Now, inside each eye-shape, draw a heart (one heart in each eye-shape) and inside each heart, write a dollar sign. Then, using the eye-shapes as a guide, write, in very tiny letters, like the eye-lashes of the eyes, top and bottom, the words "PAY CHILD" (on the top line) and "SUPPORT" (on the bottom). If you do it neatly, it'll look like an eye is in each corner with a heart for the iris of each eye and a dollar sign for the pupil of each eyeball, and the words "PAY CHILD SUPPORT" as the eyelashes of each eye. The meaning of this symbol in each corner is GOD IS WATCHING YOU (the eye shape) -- SO LOVE THE CHILD (the heart) AND PAY THE MONEY (the dollar sign).

After you have prepared the paper, dress it with Patchouli oil and put it in a honey jar as explained above. Use a green candle for money or a pink one for the father to care more for the child, and dress it with Pay Me Oil.

Pay me oil (one version)
3 parts patchouli oil
1 part rose
1 part sandalwood

I've also heard that you can add sugar, honey or whatever sweet your using to your mouth,in your mouth, to hold it in there while speaking the words to the spell, they say it makes the spell even stronger.
