Mardi Gras New Moon

This year Mardi Grass falls on the New Moon. The new moon is a time for manifesting all the positvie things that you would wish to have in your life. Here is a spell that incorporates the traditional Mardi Gras colors of purple for justice, green to represent faith, and gold to represent power. For this spell you will need one purple candle, one green candle, one gold candle (any sizes or shape) and three candleholders. Line up the candles and drape Mardi Gras beads and coins around them. Once you have things arranged as you like, light the candles and repeat the charm:

This year, Mardi Gras has
fallen on a new moon night,

And now i cast this spell,
with magic and candlelight.

The purple candle brings
justice with all possible speed,

While the green candle
renews my faith, in my time of need.

The golden candle is burned
for power, may it shine so bright.

Let the good times roll, with
harm to none, on this Mardi Gras night.

Allow the candles to burn out in a safe place.
