Whilst pondering what I could do for this weeks lovely Gratitude Challenge I stumbled across these cute thank you cards on Amazon… 
… And I decided I was going to set myself a personal challenge to write a thank you card every day for a whole year! 
Each day, I will pick someone who I really appreciate and am grateful to have in my life and I will write them a note thanking them 
Before I send them, I am going to take a photo 
to remind me and at the end of the year turn the pictures into a photo book for my coffee table collection 
so I can reflect back whenever I feel like it 
I decided I would write my own spell to bless my thank you cards with before I send them, as an extra special thank you to recipient!
I imagine I will bless a batch at a time and post after; a good day to do this would be a Friday as that day is ruled by Venus and favours friendships, relationships and love 
Blessing Spell for Friends and Loved Ones 
What you need:
- 1 White Candle
- Rose Quartz
- Amethyst
- Tourmaline
- Jade
- Citrine
-
Cleanse your area, cast a circle or do whatever it is you need to do to prepare for the spell
-
Light your candle and breathe deeply until calm and centered
-
Place your thank you letters next to the candle, take the crystals in your hands and whilst envisioning yourself encased in a pure white light
say the following:
"Amethyst and Tourmaline,
Rose Quartz, Jade and Bright Citrine,
Empower this dear friend of mine,
With all the traits you do imbine.
Happiness, prosperity,
A bucket load of inner peace,
Love and kindness,
A healed whole heart,
Plenty of luck for each new start.
Protect them please from all who demean,
And encourage them always to follow their dreams,
For this friend of mine I am eternally grateful,
And wish to guide them away from all that is hateful.
All this I wish, for them, from me,
See this done, see it true, so mote it be!"
-
Place your crystals
on top of the letter and meditate for 5-10 minutes quietly thinking of your friends surrounded by the pure white light of your blessing. -
You can then blow the candle out- this can be used for other gratitude spells in the future
You can use this spell to bless a loved one in multiple different ways; for example by replacing the letter with a photograph of them, or just a piece of paper with their name on it.
And a great idea to bless them with that Friday/Venus energy too! 
You are so creative, I am truly in awe
