A tiny money spell for you
Can I promise that this works? No.
But has it worked for me? Yes.
Not in any big dramatic way. I haven’t won the lottery or suddenly found a bunch of money. But I’ve lost a lot of my anxiousness that is tied to money because things now feel stable and I have enough.
First, be practical, and read yesterday’s blog post for tips on finances and how financial wellness is part of self-care, which includes tips on finding and figuring out what you actually have. Because the best magic is paired with action, and being informed is a form of action.
Second, get ready to blow some cinnamon through your front door on the first of the month.

What the cinnamon spell or ritual is
Timing: Some folks say the best time to do this ritual is the first of the month. I believe that any Thursday or Sunday works, and so does any new moon, but there’s extra oomph to things if you do it on the first Thursday or Sunday of the month. Thursday because Jupiter governs the day, and governs wealth and abundance, plus tends to make things you are focusing on bigger. Sunday because it’s governed by the Sun, which gives warmth and strength to all the other planets.
And guess what? March 1st is on a Sunday this year, so you can do both the first of the month and the first Sunday all at the same time.. The natural energies of things are amplifying what you will be doing.
Supplies: A pinch or two of ground cinnamon. That’s it.
How to do it:
Stand outside your front door, facing your house. Make sure that the door is open (so that light and air can pass from outside to inside). Even if it’s cold or wet outside, this only takes 30 seconds or so. And you can’t mess it up.
Put a sprinkle or pinch of cinnamon into the palm of your open hand.
Take a deep breath in (not too close to that cinnamon, or you will inhale it and cough), envision prosperity and abundance in all its forms entering your home and life, and blow the cinnamon through your open front door.
Wait until the next day to sweep up your entryway or the area inside your front door. To be honest, I seldom see any deposits of cinnamon anywhere, since it disburses pretty well.
That’s it. You stand on the threshold of your home, outside, and blow cinnamon through the open door into your house, while thinking about/wishing for abundance. You can add more specificity: abundant health, abundant love, abundant finances, abundance in all forms. Or you can just let the word “abundance” stand in for all the concepts you mean: magic works on intention, and your guides tend to know what you mean, even if you don’t “get it 100% right.”
If you want, you can state your intention out loud before or after blowing the cinnamon. It can be as simple as saying the word “abundance”, in all honesty, but if you think it needs more “gravitas” than that, you can create phrase or mantra that speaks to you. Try something like “May abundance bless all who live here” or “This home is full of prosperity and abundance.”
Do your part to bring things into being (manifest them) by decluttering, getting rid of trash, and rounding up your money. Maybe roll up your loose coins, or at least collect them all into one jar or container.
Then do it next month. Then again. And again.
