Lust Spells and Sex Magic: 4 Spells to Reignite Passion

Last Updated on November 1, 2026 by Wishbonix

There comes a time in almost every long relationship when the passion fades. Work, stress, children and routine take over, and the spark you felt when you first met seems a long way off. Don’t you wish your love life could feel like those early days again? Lust spells are among the oldest and most popular spells in witchcraft for exactly this reason: they help reawaken desire, attraction and passion between two people who already share a bond.

On this page you’ll learn what lust spells and sex magic are, how they differ from love spells, the correspondences that strengthen them, and four lust spells you can cast yourself: a red sachet sex spell, an apple and patchouli passion spell, an easy pink candle lust spell, and a lust bath to awaken your own desire.

What Are Lust Spells?

A lust spell is a spell that stirs physical attraction, desire and passion. Where a love spell works on deeper emotional bonds, a lust spell works on the body and the senses: it rekindles the attraction that has cooled, brings back playfulness and intimacy, and helps both partners feel desirable again.

Lust spells work best in a relationship where the feelings are already there but the fire has burned low. They can’t create desire that doesn’t exist, and they shouldn’t be used to make someone want you against their will. Desire that is forced isn’t real desire, and a spell built on control tends to backfire.

Lust Spells vs Love Spells

	Lust Spells	Love Spells
Focus	Physical attraction, desire and passion	Emotional connection, commitment and lasting love
Best for	Rekindling the spark in an existing relationship	Finding love, deepening a bond, bringing back a lover
Colors	Red, deep pink	Pink, red, white
Moon phase	Waxing or Full Moon	Waxing or Full Moon
Typical effect	Quick, intense, sensual	Gradual, deep, lasting

Many couples combine the two: a lust spell to bring back the spark, and a love spell or commitment spell to deepen the bond. If you want to attract someone new, an attraction spell is the better choice.

What Is Sex Magic?

Sex magic is the practice of using the energy raised through intimacy and desire to power a magical intention. The idea is very old. Tantric traditions in India have worked with sexual energy as a spiritual force for centuries, and in the 19th and 20th centuries Western occultists such as Paschal Beverly Randolph and Aleister Crowley wrote about sexual energy as one of the strongest forces a magician can use.

In modern witchcraft, sex magic simply means directing that energy, whether alone or with a willing partner, toward a goal you both share. The one rule that never changes: sex magic is only ever practiced between consenting adults.

Benefits of Lust Spells

People cast lust spells to:

• Rekindle passion between long-term partners
• Strengthen physical, emotional and sexual attraction
• Bring back desire and interest after a stressful time
• Create more intimacy and closeness
• Feel more confident and desirable in their own skin

When the physical side of a relationship feels good again, many couples find it easier to talk about other things too. A lust spell can open that door, but honest conversation is what keeps it open.

Correspondences for Sex Magic and Lust Spells

The herbs listed here are for spellwork, such as sachets, incense and candle dressing. Don’t eat or drink them, as some, like black cohosh, can be harmful.

Red Sachet Sex Spell to Reignite Passion

This sex spell draws on the old Hoodoo tradition of the mojo bag: a small sewn charm that is carried close to the body to keep its power working. The red satin stands for passion, and the herbs inside are traditional lust correspondences. It is made for a couple who want to bring the fire back into their relationship.

For the Sex Spell You Will Need:

• A square of red satin cloth
• Black thread and a needle
• A small piece of paper and a pen
• A pinch of dried rose petals
• A pinch of cinnamon
• A few drops of patchouli oil
• A small carnelian or garnet (optional)

How to Cast the Sex Spell

1. On a Friday during the waxing or full moon, write your name and your partner’s name on the paper, and draw a circle around both names.
2. Lay the paper in the center of the red satin and add the rose petals, cinnamon and the stone.
3. Add three drops of patchouli oil while picturing the two of you in your most passionate moments together.
4. Fold the satin into a small pouch and stitch it closed with the black thread. With every stitch, say both of your names.
5. Carry the sachet close to your body for three days, in a pocket, your bra or under your pillow at night.
6. On the fourth day, keep it in your bedroom, hidden in your nightstand or under the mattress, to keep the passion alive.

Benefits of a Sex Spell

When a relationship is new, attraction feels so strong that we can’t imagine it ever fading. But stress at work, family life and plain routine can leave both partners tired and less interested than before. Sometimes two people simply get so used to each other that the spark is no longer there.

This is when a sex spell can help. It is meant to light a small spark of desire that can grow into a flame again, so you rediscover what it feels like to really want each other. Use it only if you’re sure you want your own and your partner’s attraction to each other to grow.

Apple and Patchouli Passion Spell

This old passion spell uses two powerful lust symbols. The apple is the fruit of temptation, and patchouli has been associated with sensuality and lovemaking for centuries. It works best when you cast it together with your partner, but you can also cast it alone for your relationship.

For the Passion Spell You Will Need:

• A red apple
• Patchouli incense on a heat-safe holder
• Patchouli oil
• A knife

How to Cast the Passion Spell

1. Cast this spell during the waxing or full moon.
2. Rub a drop of patchouli oil on your wrist, and on your partner’s wrist if they are with you, and light the incense.
3. Pass the apple through the smoke and chant:
   

   Heart of [partner’s name],
   Heart of [your name],
   Passion rising,
   Burning flame.

4. Pass the apple through the smoke two more times, repeating the chant each time.
5. Cut the apple in half crosswise, so the seeds form a five-pointed star, and lay both halves in front of the incense.
6. If you cast the spell together, share one half each. If you cast it alone, leave the halves until the incense has burned out, then bury them in your garden or a potted plant.

The Benefits of a Passion Spell

Use this passion spell to bring back desire in an existing relationship. Passion is a beautiful and natural part of love, and this spell works by helping both of you reconnect with feelings that stress and routine may have pushed aside.

Easy Lust Spell with a Pink Candle

If the loving intimacy you had at the beginning of your relationship has faded, this easy lust spell helps bring back attraction and desire. Timing matters here: the zodiac sign of Taurus is associated with sensuality and pleasure, nine o’clock in the evening is traditionally the hour of desire, and the number nine stands for achievement and completion.

For the Easy Lust Spell You Will Need:

• A pink taper candle
• A heat-safe candle holder
• A pin
• Rosewater
• Honey
• A piece of pink silk

How to Cast the Easy Lust Spell

1. Begin at nine o’clock in the evening when the moon is in Taurus.
2. With the pin, carve your partner’s name and your own name nine times along the candle.
3. Anoint the candle with a mixture of rosewater and honey. Use just a little honey, or the candle will burn like a torch.
4. Place the candle in its holder, light it and let it burn for nine minutes while you picture the two of you together. Then snuff it out.
5. Repeat every night at nine o’clock for nine nights in a row.
6. On the ninth night, after you snuff the candle out, wrap it in the pink silk and bury it in a place that is special to you both, such as a nearby park or forest.

Fire safety: Burn candles on a heat-safe holder away from curtains and bedding, keep water nearby, and never leave a burning candle unattended.

Lust Bath to Awaken Your Own Desire

Sometimes the spark that needs rekindling is your own. Feeling desirable starts with feeling good in your own skin, and this sensual bath is a lust spell for yourself.

You Will Need

• A handful of red rose petals
• A cinnamon stick
• A few drops of jasmine or ylang-ylang oil
• A red candle

How to Take the Lust Bath

1. On a Friday evening, light the red candle in the bathroom on a safe surface.
2. Run a warm bath and add the rose petals, the cinnamon stick and the oil.
3. Soak for at least twenty minutes. Picture a warm red glow spreading through your body, and repeat: “I am desirable, I am alive, my passion burns bright.”
4. Let the water drain while you’re still in the tub, then rinse off and dress in something that makes you feel attractive.

Do a small patch test with the oil first if you have sensitive skin.

Tips to Rekindle Passion Alongside Your Spell

Spells work best when your actions point in the same direction. To help your lust spell along:

• Make time for each other: plan a date night without phones or children.
• Talk about what you want: honest, playful conversation is one of the strongest aphrodisiacs there is.
• Change your routine: a weekend away, a new place or simply a different evening can wake things up.
• Look after yourself: rest, movement and feeling good in your body all feed desire.

If low desire continues for a long time, or is linked to pain, tiredness or low mood, it’s worth talking to a doctor. A loss of desire can have physical causes that are easy to treat.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do lust spells work?

Lust spells are among the oldest and most popular spells in witchcraft, and many couples use them to bring back passion. They work best in a relationship where both partners still care for each other. No spell can guarantee a result.

Can I cast a lust spell on someone who isn’t my partner?

We don’t recommend it. A lust spell can’t create desire that isn’t there, and trying to make someone want you against their will is controlling and likely to backfire. To attract someone new, use an attraction spell instead.

How long does a lust spell take to work?

Some couples notice a change within days, others over a full moon cycle. Combine your spell with time together and honest conversation for the best chance of success.

What is the difference between a lust spell and a sex spell?

The terms are often used interchangeably. A sex spell usually focuses specifically on physical intimacy, while a lust spell covers attraction and desire more broadly.

What color candle is best for a lust spell?

Red is the classic color for lust and passion. Pink brings in tenderness and romance, which is why the easy lust spell uses a pink candle.
