Bring him back spells often involve focusing intention through rituals using items like red candles, personal items (hair/photo), or honey to sweeten a person’s feelings. Popular methods include lighting a red candle while visualizing the desired reunion for three nights or writing intentions on paper.
While love spells are rooted in various cultural and spiritual traditions like Wicca, voodoo, and folk magic, their effectiveness is largely a matter of personal belief, intention, and perhaps a dash of psychology. Many sources emphasize focusing on self-love and healing first, but if you’re set on trying one, here are a couple of simple, commonly shared examples drawn from online discussions and guides. These are for entertainment or ritual purposes—results aren’t guaranteed, and always prioritize consent and ethics in real relationships.

Simple Candle Spell to Attract an Ex Back
This one symbolizes rekindling desire and is popular in beginner witchcraft circles. You’ll need:
- A pink or red candle (pink for gentle romance, red for passion).
- A photo or personal item of your ex (like a note or hair, if available).
- Essential oil like rose or jasmine (optional for anointing).
- A quiet space.
Steps:
- Light the candle at dusk or during a waxing moon phase for growth energy.
- Anoint the candle with oil while visualizing your ex returning happily.
- Hold the photo/item and chant something like: “As this flame burns bright and true, [Ex’s name], my love calls back to you. With open heart and willing soul, return to me and make us whole.” Repeat three times.
- Let the candle burn out safely, then bury any remnants near a tree or plant to “grow” the intention.
Variations include carving your ex’s name into the candle or adding honey to sweeten the spell.
Reconciliation Honey Jar Spell
A sweeter, less intense option often recommended for mending broken bonds. Materials:
- A small jar with a lid.
- Honey (symbolizes sweetness and attraction).
- Paper and pen.
- Personal items from both of you (e.g., your names written on paper, a photo, or herbs like cinnamon for passion).
Steps:
- Write your ex’s name and yours on paper, crossing them to symbolize reunion.
- Fold the paper toward you three times, thinking positive thoughts about reconciliation.
- Place it in the jar with any items, then fill with honey while saying: “[Ex’s name], as this honey is sweet, so shall your thoughts of me be. Come back with love, harm none, so mote it be.”
- Seal the jar and store it in a warm spot, like near your bed. Shake it gently daily to “stir” the energy.

Some practitioners suggest combining this with meditation or affirmations for better results. If you’re new to this, forums like Reddit’s r/Witch community discuss ethical tweaks, such as adding clauses for mutual willingness.
Remember, real change often comes from communication or personal growth rather than spells alone. If things feel off, consider talking to a counselor instead.
- Red Candle Attraction Spell: Carve your ex’s name into a red candle, anoint it with rose oil or honey, and burn it for three nights while meditating on your intention.
