Above all else, it is important to know yourself, your strengths and weaknesses. Understand the marks that time has left upon you. Scars show that you survived.

For this spell you'll need a translucent heart, such as a large bead, ornament, or paperweight. Hold it in the sun and see how the light shines through it. Contemplate your own heart. What tragedies or hardships have you survived? What scars have they left behind? How can you take care of those? Visualize your heart, and all its scars, illuminated by the sun. Pour your energy into it for self-love and healing.

Then choose one thing to work on today. You could try a new coping skill or read a self-care book. You could meditate on a past challenge and what you might do differently now. You could focus positive affirmations on one area of scar tissue. Do whatever works for you. Love your heart the way it is, even as you work to heal it.
