This spell is all you'll ever need to chase away bad vibes, energize your space, and generally rev up the atmosphere. This spell should be performed when there is a new moon-preferably in late winter/early spring. You will need: a tine paintbrush, spring water, myrtle leaves, pine needles, your own door key. Wearing your favorite item of clothing will increase the potency of this spell. Method: 1) Place the myrtle and pine needles in a bowl. 2) Add one cup of spring water. 3) Wait for the moon to rise to its highest point. 4) Place the key in the bowl. 5) With the paintbrush "paint" this water around your doorway. This will give it an immediate magical energy. 6) The metaphorical door is now wide open for good things to flow through.
