To help you find new friends. Suitable for those who have moved and don't know anybody, or for those who simply wish to broaden their circle of friends.

Casting the spell:
Place the stones and the sugar together in the bowl.
Inscribe the top of the candle with the sign for Venus (a circle with a joined cross at the bottom). Inscribe a new moon opposite to this.
Light the candle.
Lift your eyes to the moon, place your hand on the sugar and stones, and say:
Winds of the east, winds of the west,
Winds of the south, winds of the north,
Heed my words and hear my prayer
