Write your name in the middle of a blank sheet of paper. Around your name, write the names of friends you are trying to strengthen relationships with. We find this spell is especially helpful when you write down the names of people who live a distance away.

After you’ve written down the names of your friends, draw a circle connecting them all together, with spokes from that circle pointing back to you. As you draw the circle and the spokes, say:

May the bonds we have
forged remain strong,
So we might share life’s
happiness, pain, and song.
May we be connected as long
as our friendships last.
This spell of friendship
has now been cast!

Place your piece of paper in a safe place. Retrieve it and redraw the circle and spokes if you feel a friendship slipping away from you.
