The in-laws’ tea party
A SPELL TO DEAL WITH A DIFFICULT MOTHER-IN-LAW. In this relatively straightforward ritual it is important to analyse the reasons for the strained relationship you have with your partner’s family. Almost certainly, a note of jealousy over your dominant role in her son’s life is the culprit; but sometimes a fear of not living up to your expectations, or not knowing how to approach you, can be the real underlying problem. Ylang ylang and cypress oils both combat feelings of jealousy, ylang ylang with the added ability to counteract detachment and fear of social contact. YOU WILL NEED The ingredients for the Frozen Honey spell (See Here); an afternoon tea spread of sandwiches and little cakes; a pot of strong tea or coffee; your nail filings; a candle anointed with ylang ylang or cypress oil ON A WANING MOON (BECAUSE YOU ARE DRIVING AWAY NEGATIVE FEELINGS) PERFORM THE FROZEN HONEY SPELL, but place your name and that of your mother-in-law (or whoever it is you wish to contact) in the container, then in the freezer as described. On the same day, invite the difficult party to tea, and make it a lavish spread to demonstrate a real effort of generosity. Also, the more food you offer, the more liquid she’ll probably drink. In the cup she will use, place a few of your nail filings (if you’re battling both in-laws, put them straight into the pot) and let her quietly ingest your essence. Light the candle and let the scent pervade the atmosphere before tea. Circle her with white light in your mind whilst you do this, and ask her to see that you are not an enemy. Imagine her relaxing more with you. AVOID ALL SENSITIVE SUBJECTS DURING THE ENSUING TEA PARTY, AND REPEAT THE SPELL AT INTERVALS EVERY FEW WEEKS UNTIL YOU HAVE THE PROBLEM UNDER CONTROL.
