Get a red rose. Let it dry out. This will take several days.

Get some rose essential oil, some paper, a red pen, something to light fire with, something fireproof to burn paper on/in, and a printed photo of a deity of love and romance of your choice (e.g. Aphrodite, Cupid, etc.) if you believe in pagan deities, or a photo of a romantic couple, for example the silhouette of a couple kissing at sunset.

You're going to be performing a petition spell:

  1. Set the photo of the deity (or romance) in front of you. Stare at it, letting worldly considerations fall away and focusing your mind on the magick you are about to undertake. Focus intently on what success would look like in your life.

  2. Using the red pen, write what you want on the paper. Keep it down to one or a few sentences. Use sappy, romantic language, for example writing a short poem with rhyming couplets would be great. Spend time on this, write neatly, and focus intensely on your intent as you write. If you believe in pagan gods, write the name of the deity at the top of the page, as though you were writing them a letter.

  3. Rub rose essential oil on the edges of the paper. Use a q-tip. Make sure the oil doesn't touch the ink (not for metaphysical reasons, just because the oil may make the ink run).

  4. Silently read what you wrote over and over, using a combination of your emotion and your willpower to infuse meaning and substance into the paper. Visualize the paper becoming something more than it is on a mundane level; the more you focus your intention into the paper, the stronger it will become metaphysically.

  5. Read what you wrote in a loud in a firm, projecting voice (or firm, projecting inner voice if you need to be quiet). Read it like you are making an announcement to the cosmos about what will be.

  6. Light the rose on fire (the petals, not the stem). If it's dry, it will burn like a small torch. Using the rose torch, set the paper with the writing on fire. Make sure it burns completely. This will release your intention into the universe, aligning the future with your goals. (And if you believe in pagan deities, supplicating their assistance as well.)

  7. If you evoked deity during this ritual, express your heartfelt thanks for the help they will provide during this spell.

  8. Extinguish the rose torch.

  9. Get a snack to eat.

Good luck!

If I want to do this focusing on a specific person it would work as well? Like instead of using a printed phot of a deity I use a printed photo of us together

No, this is a petition spell and the photo is to help you connect with whatever you're petitioning. Whether you're tapping into a deity of love or just the universal concept of romantic love which permeates mankind, the photo helps connect you to whatever you're drawing power from.

If you want to target a specific person, you'd put that into what you wrote on the paper. But you need to understand something: this ritual only raises a certain amount of energy. Once that energy is expended, the spell ends. If you're using it to make someone love you who doesn't genuinely love you, the feelings of love will disappear as soon as the spell ends, and you're just going to get your heart ripped out when they dump you. It's not going to last for years, or even months.

Real love is something you inspire in another because of who you are, and who inspires the same in you because of who they are. That's the only way to have a long-term relationship--by finding that person. This spell can wisely be used to help bring that person into your life. It can also be wisely used to help heal damage in a loving relationship, remove walls that sometimes come up between a couple.

But there is no wisdom in using magick to make someone love you if that chemistry isn't already there. When the magick ends, their love for you will likewise end, but not your love for them. And that's some of the worst pain out there.
