At sunset on Friday when the moon is waxing, cast into a blazing fire any five of these herbs: basil, catnip, coriander, ginger, jasmine, juniper berries, lavender, lovage, rosemary, rose petal, violet or yarrow. You should pick each fresh if that’s practical. As the herbs burn, recite the following: “My true love’s face I’ve yet to see. I know not what his (or her) name may be. But soon his (her) heart well beat for me. Come hither my love. So may it be.”
