Elbows

Banging your elbow was a lucky sign in days past: perhaps because it touches your funny bone! Try this spell to make you think of happiness instead of pain:

As you bang one elbow, know the other one lightly for good luck, saying: ?To this elbow I do no harm; For happiness is now in the crook of my arm.?

Grip both elbows with each opposite hand, and smile or laugh out loud.

Before the day is over, at least two things should occur that make you smile with pleasure.

This review is from: Happiness (Titania's Wishing Spells) (Hardcover)

White witch Titiana Hardie provides readers with wishing spells to help them find contentment and happiness in their lives. As with the companion spell book on LOVE, the ingredients that make up the recipes of the spells are easy to gather (no vampire blood or the heart of a lion). The illustrations add to the overall positive feelings generated from TITIANA'S WISHING SPELLS: HAPPINESS. The pseudo-suede wrapping makes the book appear even more special and serves as a nice Valentine's Day present for a loved one, friend, or someone who needs a mental boost. Ms. Hardie authors a fun to read offbeat book that serves as a unique, uplifting novelty gift.

Another beautifully bound book. Don't let the size full you, the book is small(it is the size of my hand), but full of everyday spells. Like what to do if you bang your elbow. There is no information in this book, just beautiful, easy spells for luck and happiness.
