and let your shine cover every eye."

the light that brings me beauty,
and grant me beauty three times three"

Cut an apple in half horizontally and you should see the star.
Visualize yourself glowing like a star.
Eat half the apple, and give the rest of it as an offering,
outdoors under a tree. Peel the skin off the avocado.

TO KEEP BEAUTY FROM FADING...
When all your face appears most fair,
When the comets and meteors gild your hair,
And in your eyes the moon and sun
Contest, surrender, and burn as one,
When ivory Venus smoothes your brow,
And Mars recurves your lips' red bow,
Make haste to utter this binding verse
And hold the stars on their kindest course...
"Figure of fire,
That shift and change,
Planets that move
By heaven's hinge,
Be siged and fixed
Forever here,
And close my image
Wthin thy sphere"
Measure a yard of golden string,
Loose from your fingers let it swing,
Then tie it in thirteen sturdy knots,
Hide it among your scents and pots.
VERVAIN...
For everlasting youth, this spell must be performed when the moon is full... Go outdoors and light one black candle. Take a chalice of water to which you add
salt, and two spoonsful of Vervain. Mix thoroughly and dip into this water a piece of
petrified wood. Pass the rock through the flame of the candle and chant...
"Candle, herb, rock, water, salt,
Hear me as my song is sung,
Age is not my hearts desire,
It is youth to which I aspire,
Candle, herb, rock, water, salt."
Repeat the ritual and chant seven times. As each chant is said, touch the rock in
turn to first one foot, one hand, one shoulder, crown of the head, and then down
the other side of the body to shoulder, hand and foot. When the spell is finished, take the rock immediately to the nearest river, beach or stream and throw it in..
Taken from "the modern herbal spellbook" by Anna Riva
VIOLETS...
Mix with milk and anoint the face, and "There is not a young Prince on earth who will not be charmed with thy beauty."
According to legend..
