Sage Advice

Create a Self Love Jar during this love month!

Self love is the core of all that you are. It is the thing that can change your life in so many ways – from your relationships, your own love life, your career, your opportunities and your mental health. When you love yourself unconditionally and always, you can thrive. When you can master the art of self-love, although it is a life-long journey of inner growth and development, you’ll feel freer to be who you are meant to be.

Craft this Self Love spell jar for happiness and confidence. Making this jar is a self-love ritual on itself, and it will help you assert boundaries and an overall deeper connection with yourself.

Ingredients

  • Lavender - for calming anxious thoughts and encouraging kindness to yourself

  • Rose Quartz - known as the love crystal, it is particularly effective at boosting feelings of self-love

  • Honey - used as a magical sweetener, encouraging kind and sweet words and thoughts (if you are vegan and don’t use honey, you can use agave)

  • Jasmine - used to help inspire pure love for yourself

  • Rose Petals - dried or fresh for promoting love in your life

  • Clear Quartz - for clearing negativity and allowing for mental clarity

  • Pink Ribbon - used to seal the jar, pink is the color associated with self-love

  • Small Jar or Container

Directions

  • Begin by cleansing your spell ingredients and your space.
    It’s important to make sure that each ingredient is cleansed before putting it into the jar with intention, so use either smoke from herbs or incense and immerse each piece in the smoke for a few seconds. You can ask for help from the Universe or your guiding angels to help clear any previous energy - in particular from the crystals - by saying ‘I ask that this crystal (or other ingredients) is cleansed of any previous energy and is placed in this spell jar for my highest and best intention’.

  • Add each ingredient to the jar individually.
    Begin to place each ingredient in the jar of your choice. It’s at this point you want to really connect with yourself and be mindful of how you’re approaching the task - slow, mindful, intentional movements, whilst repeating the self-love chant, is the most powerful way to do this.


    In this jar I place my love.
    Abundant love for all I am, all I have been and all I ever will be.
    In this jar I place my love,
    I carry it with me,

    you can make the chant your own, for whatever you are feeling in the moment 

  • Seal your jar using the pink ribbon.
    We recommend using some pink or red tape or cord and as you’re sealing it up, use an intention to infuse the jar with more self-loving energy. If there’s a specific aspect of yourself you feel you need to direct more love to then you can specify this. For example, ‘I choose to love my body exactly as it is right now and be gentle and kind to myself every day’. For a more broad intention, you could say something like ‘I direct love and kindness to myself every day, I am loved and I share love freely with myself because I am worthy.

  • Let the jar do its work.
    Carry the jar with you during the day or place it somewhere in your home that you see every day. Allow the energy and self-love to flow into your life!

Night Sky: Moon, Jupiter, Capella and Betelgeuse

On February 7, 2025, the waxing gibbous moon will be near bright Jupiter. The moon will lie between the golden star Capella and the red supergiant Betelgeuse. Capella is the brightest star in the constellation of Auriga the Charioteer. Betelgeuse is the 2nd brightest star in Orion the Hunter. The moon and Jupiter will set several hours after midnight.
