Have you ever attended an art opening or book reading and hit it off with the person seated beside you? You meant to exchange business cards, but one thing led to another and now you have no way of getting in touch. It’s time for some magical intervention. Try this spell and you will soon be bumping into each other at your neighborhood coffee shop.

At your local metaphysical shop, buy two body-shaped candles. (One should be shaped like your own body; the other should be a woman’s figure if you want to reach out to a woman, or a man’s figure to communicate with a man.) When you have the appropriate candles, set them on your altar. If you can’t find any with the desired shapes, use two pink candles instead.

Scatter fresh rosemary around the candles. Rub amber resin on the candles and burn amber incense. Light the candles, then break off some rosemary and sprinkle it in the incense. Hold your hands together between the candles and recite:

Sister/brother stranger, friend I met today,
merry may we meet again.
With every word I say,
I draw you closer to me.
So mote it be.

The rosemary in the spell will cause your new acquaintance to remember you, too, and the amber resin will cause that person to “stick” to you as your friend.
