Old-fashioned love spell

If everything else fails, you may need a touch of magic to get things going! This spell is usually performed by a woman but can, at a push, be performed by a man. It’s said to increase desire, enhance libido and increase sexual energy. Worth trying, then!

You’ll need a red candle, some incense to burn, and a photograph of your beloved. Hold the picture of your loved one in your left hand. With the other hand, light the incense and then the red candle. Repeat the following spell: ‘Goddess of desire, light my fire, let us simmer together in heat of love, cast my spell from up above.’ Next, burn the photograph of your loved one while reciting the spell. Keep doing so until it’s completely burned away. (Make sure before performing this spell that you have your loved one’s permission – love spells should always be completely consensual.)

All you’ve got to do now is wait for the flames of lust to flicker...
