Rosa Mystica, Immaculate Virgin, Mother of Grace, in honor of your Divine Son, we prostrate ourselves at your feet to implore God’s mercy.  We beg for help and grace, not relying on any merit of ours, but on the Kindness of your motherly heart, and confident that you will grant our urgent requests.  Hail Mary …

To be prayed on the twelve days before her feast

Mystical Rose, be thou blessed, Mother of Divine Grace.  Thou hast given to the whole of mankind thy divine Son, Jesus Christ, the Author of Grace. Mystical Rose, be thou ever blessed!  Thy Divine Son, when dying upon the cross, obtained grace for us and thou didst co-operate with Him in this, when the sword pierced Thy soul.

Mystical Rose, be thou ever blessed!  Thou were chosen by the Heavenly Father to be the mistress of His treasures, stewardess and distributor of all His graces.

Mystical Rose, our mother!  Turn loving eyes upon the millions of human kind.  We beg thee, we implore thee, we beseech thee, let all obtain the grace of God through holy Baptism, the sacrament of Reconciliation and all the other sacraments.

Mystical Rose, Mother of Divine Grace, let us all attain to the house of the Heavenly Father, for we are all Thy children and the children of God.  Look upon my soul, which through sin is so poor and unworthy.

Mystical Rose, thou givest to whom thou willest.  Thou givest when and as much as thou willest.  I trust in thee; I open my heart to thee.  Let thy light irradiate my soul.  Make Thy motherly love cause my indifferent heart to glow.  Fill me with Thy joy, Thy humility and Thy peace! Mystical Rose, thou acceptest that thou art a mother with a special care for all those children who most require thy help.  And so I seek thy help in all my bodily and spiritual needs.  Very particularly I beg thee for the following grace …

Mystical Rose, thou art the mother of Jesus Christ and the mother of Divine Grace, Thou art the Mother of Mercy and the Mother of Life.  Thou art our kind mother and our hope.  Enclose me in Thy Immaculate Heart and hear my prayer.  Amen.Mystical Rose, pray to Jesus for us! (Three times)

Salve Regina … Hail Holy Queen …

1.  The angel of the Lord declared unto Mary and she conceived by the Holy Spirit.  Hail Mary …

2.  Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to me according to Thy Word.  Hail Mary …

3.  And the Word was made flesh and dwelt amongst us.  Hail Mary …

Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God, that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.  Let us pray.  Pour forth, we beseech thee, O Lord, Thy grace into our hearts, that we to whom the incarnation of Thy Son was made known by the message of an angel, may by His passion and cross be brought to His glorious resurrection, through the same Christ, our Lord.  Amen

“ With spells in her hair…”

andromedagrey:

This one’s for any witches with long(er) hair. If you’ve got close-cut hair, this won’t really work so well for you.

Ever heard of the witch’s ladder knot spell? If you don’t know, you’re more or less tying 9 knots in a rope, while spouting an incantation.

“By knot of one, the spell’s begun,

  By knot of two, it cometh true,

  By knot of three, thus shall it be,

  By knot of four, tis strengthened more,

  By knot of five, the spell’s alive,

  By knot of six, this spell I fix,

  By knot of seven, events I’ll leaven,

  By knot of eight, it will be fate,

  By knot of nine, what’s done is mine.”

Basically, you’re going to do this with your hair.

You don’t have to worry if your hair isn’t long enough for nine knots. I’ve found that you can even do one knot per curl, and just tie nine knots throughout your hair. It’ll be just as effective.

Now, keep in mind, a witch’s ladder knot spell is known to be extra powerful, because not only do you have a chant to follow, but a physical repeating pattern to help manifest it into reality. Because of this, I don’t suggest having any especially strong intentions (ie, weaving some sort of protection spell that sends a curse at offensive parties) because it’s basically a part of your body. And it’s on your head. You really don’t want anything to backfire.

So try a little glamour spell, blessing for body positivity, or good luck charm. Change the words around in the chant to suit your needs. I came up with the words as I knotted my hair, but if you need a little time to figure out what you want to say, go ahead and write it out.

In a traditional ladder knot spell, you go back and forth between ends trying knots, however, since your hair is attached to your head, just tie knots one after another, almost like a braid, then tie it at the end with an elastic to hold it in place.

You can spell one strand of hair (it looks really cool wrapped around the elastic of a ponytail), or you can weave your whole head up with spells!

If you put all your hair up in knot spells before bed, in the morning, when you take off the elastics and let the ladders come loose, you’ll be left with wildly witchy curls that resonate beautiful energy, and were literally formed with magick! 

Idea for incantation:

  “By knot of one, I’ll face the sun,

   By knot of two, I’ll love me too,

   By knot of three, I’m proud to be me,

   By knot of four, I am worth more,

   By knot of five, this day I’ll survive,

   By knot of six, my heart I’ll fix,

   By knot of seven, harsh thoughts I’ll lessen,

   By knot of eight, I know I’m great,

   By knot of nine, this life is mine.” 

I’ve found this method to be very effective, give it a try and share with me how it worked for you!
