An Easy Water Spell

Take the appropriate enchanted herbs and stones to a river, spring lake or seashore. Hold them tightly in your power hand (the hand you use most) and visualize your need strongly. With a sweeping motion, scatter the herbs and stones onto the water. The power has been sent. You may desire to memorize a short spell, stating what your needs are. If you do this, say the spell as you scatter the herbs and stones.
