Tools:

• A sigil for the word power

• 1 gold-colored pouch, preferably made of silk

• 1 red ribbon

• 1 almond

• A pinch of sage

• 1 acorn

• 1 small piece of topaz, carnelian, or agate

• Sandalwood incense

When:

• Preferably a Sunday or a Thursday, on a full moon

As described in Chapter 3, design a magic sigil by entwining the letters that spell the word power so they form an image. Fold the paper three times, then slip it into the gold-colored pouch. Add the remaining ingredients, except the incense. Tie the pouch with the red ribbon, making nine knots. Each time you tie a knot, repeat this incantation:

By the magic of three times three

Divine power flows through me.

I am everything I wish to be.

Light the incense. Hold the talisman in the smoke for a few moments to charge it. Carry the talisman with you to increase your self-confidence. Hold it in your hand whenever you feel a need for a confidence boost. If you prefer, put it on your altar or in a spot where you'll see it often.
