How to Cast a Mirror Love Spell: Mirror love spells use reflective surfaces to bounce romantic energy between you and another person, creating a powerful connection that draws them to you.
These spells work by reflecting your image together with theirs, symbolically merging your energies and making the person see you whenever they look at themselves.
Today, I’m sharing exactly how to cast a mirror love spell that works. You’ll learn the different types of mirror spells, what materials you need, step-by-step instructions for casting, and how to make these spells more powerful.
By the end of this guide, you’ll know how to use mirrors to attract love, bind someone to you, or make a specific person think about you constantly.
Mirror spells are some of the most effective love magic because mirrors don’t just reflect images – they reflect energy, intention, and reality itself.
What Is a Mirror Love Spell?
A mirror love spell uses a reflective surface to create a magical link between you and another person.
The mirror reflects both of your images or names, symbolically joining you together in the reflective realm. What happens in the mirror realm manifests in physical reality.
These spells work on the principle that mirrors show truth but also create it. When you place two people’s images together in a mirror and seal that reflection with magic, the universe works to make that reflection real in the physical world.
Mirror love spells are particularly powerful for making someone think about you, see you differently, or become obsessed with you. The person literally cannot look at their own reflection without thinking of you.
Why Mirror Spell Works for Love
A mirror is a magical tool that has been used in divination and spellwork for thousands of years. They hold and reflect energy, trap intentions, and create portals between the physical and spiritual realms.
In love magic, mirrors serve three purposes:
Reflection: The mirror bounces romantic energy back and forth between you and the target person, creating an endless loop of attraction.
Binding: When two images are trapped together in a mirror, they become bound. The person sees you as part of themselves.
Obsession: Mirrors make people look at themselves. When your image is merged with theirs, they think of you every time they look in any mirror.
The reflective surface becomes a container for your spell, holding the magic active until you choose to break it.
Types of Mirror Love Spells
Different mirror love spells create different effects. Choose the type that matches your goal.
Attraction Mirror Love Spell
This spell makes someone notice you and feel attracted to you. It’s the gentlest form of mirror magic, simply reflecting your best qualities toward the person and making them see you in a romantic light.
Binding Mirror Love Spell
Binding spells trap two people together in the mirror realm, creating a connection that’s difficult to break. The person becomes emotionally and energetically tied to you.
Obsession Mirror Love Spell
These powerful obsession spells make someone think about you constantly. Every time they see their reflection anywhere, they think of you. This creates intense focus and desire.
Return Lover Mirror Spell
Specifically designed to bring back an ex, these spells reflect the past relationship back to the person, making them remember only the good times and want to return.
Marriage Mirror Spell
The most serious mirror spell. This reflects you and the target as a married couple, pushing the universe to manifest that reality.
Materials You Need
The basic materials for mirror love spells are simple:
A mirror: Small handheld mirrors work best. Makeup compacts are perfect. The mirror should be new or cleansed, never used.
Two photos: One of you and one of the target person. Face photos work best. Both should be similar sizes.
Red or pink candle: Red for passionate love, pink for romantic love.
Honey: To sweeten the spell and the person’s feelings.
Red thread or ribbon: To bind the spell together.
Paper and red pen: For writing names and intentions.
Tape or glue: To attach photos to the mirror.
Optional materials that add power:
Rose petals: For romance.
Cinnamon: For passion and speed.
Lavender: For peaceful, lasting love.
Your personal concerns: Hair, nail clippings, or bodily fluids to strengthen your connection to the spell.
Target’s personal concerns: Their hair, handwriting, or worn clothing to target them precisely.
How to Cast a Basic Mirror Love Spell
This simple mirror spell works for general attraction and making someone notice you romantically.
Step 1: Prepare Your Materials
Cleanse your mirror by wiping it with salt water. Let it dry completely. This removes any previous energy from the mirror and makes it a blank slate for your magic.
Gather your photos. If you don’t have a photo of the target, print one from social media. Both photos should show the face clearly.
Step 2: Write Your Intention
On paper, write both names. Write the target’s name three times, then turn the paper and write your name crossing over theirs three times. This creates a magical grid that binds the names together.
Under the names, write your specific intention: “[Target’s name] loves me, desires me, and wants to be with me.”
Step 3: Create the Mirror Love Spell
Place your photo facing the mirror’s reflective surface. The photo should look into the mirror. Tape it securely to the back of the mirror so your face is pressed against the glass.
Place the target’s photo on top of yours, also facing the mirror. Now both photos are looking into the mirror, seeing their reflections merge together.
Tape the target’s photo securely. Place the name paper on top of both photos. Wrap everything with red thread, going around the mirror nine times. Tie nine knots.
Step 4: Seal the Spell
Light your red or pink candle. Drip wax over the wrapped mirror, sealing the photos and paper underneath. As you drip the wax, say:
“Mirror, mirror, show [target’s name] truth, reflect my love, beauty, and youth. Every time [name] sees their face, they think of me in every place. Bound together in reflection’s glow, [name]’s love for me will grow and grow.”
Let the wax cover the back of the mirror completely, creating a seal. Let the candle burn all the way down.
Step 5: Activate the Spell
Hold the mirror so the reflective side faces you. Look into it and visualize you and the target together, happy and in love. See the image in the mirror as clearly as possible.
Say: “What the mirror shows is true, [name] loves me through and through. Reflection bound, cannot break free, [name] is drawn to loving me.”
Place the mirror somewhere safe where you can see it daily. The spell is now active.
How to Cast a Mirror Obsession Spell
This more powerful spell makes someone think about you constantly and become focused on you intensely.
What You Need
- Small mirror
- Two photos
- Red candle
- Cinnamon
- Damiana (optional, for sexual obsession)

Casting Instructions

Spread honey on the back of the mirror. Sprinkle cinnamon on the honey. If using damiana, add it too.
Press your photo face-down onto the honey and herbs. Press the target’s photo on top of yours, also face-down. Both photos should be stuck in the honey mixture.
Place the name paper on top. Wrap everything tightly with red thread, making thirteen wraps and thirteen knots. Thirteen is the number of obsession in magic.
Light the red candle. Hold the mirror over the flame (not too close) and say:
“[Name] thinks of me by day and night, I consume [name]’s every sight. In every mirror [name] will see, my face, my form, thoughts of me. Obsessed, consumed, cannot escape, thoughts of me in every shape.”
Drip the red candle wax over the entire back of the mirror, sealing everything underneath. Let the candle burn completely.
Keep the mirror wrapped and sealed. Every three days, hold it and repeat the chant to keep the obsession strong.
This spell works within one week. The person will start reaching out, asking about you, and showing intense interest.
How to Cast a Mirror Spell to Bring Back an Ex
Mirror spells are extremely effective for ex lover return because they reflect the past relationship back to the person.
What You Need
- Mirror
- Photo of you and your ex together from when you were happy
- Pink candle
- Lavender
- Rose petals
- Sugar

Casting Instructions
If you have a photo of both of you together, use that. If not, tape two separate photos side by side.
Sprinkle rose petals and lavender on the back of the mirror. Add a spoonful of sugar.
Place the photo face-down on the herbs and sugar. Write on paper: “[Ex’s name] remembers our love. [Ex’s name] returns to me. Our relationship is restored.”
Place the paper on the photo. Wrap with pink ribbon seven times, tying seven knots.
Light the pink candle. As it burns, hold the mirror and say:
“Mirror reflects our happy past, [ex’s name] remembers love that lasts. Good memories return to mind, past mistakes left behind. [Ex’s name] misses me and what we had, forgets the reasons we were sad. Come back to me, our love restore, together again like before.”
Drip the pink wax to seal the mirror. Burn the candle completely.
Place the mirror under your bed or pillow. Your ex will start having dreams about you and remembering the relationship fondly. Contact usually comes within two to four weeks.
Mirror Box Love Spell
This advanced spell traps someone in mirrors on all sides, creating inescapable attraction.
What You Need
- Small box with lid
- Four small mirrors or aluminum foil
- Photos of you and the target
- Red candle
- Rose petals
- Cinnamon
- Personal concerns if available
- Red string
Casting Instructions
Line all four inside walls of the box with mirrors facing inward. If you don’t have small mirrors, use aluminum foil with the shiny side facing in.
Write both names on paper in the crossing format. Place it in the bottom of the mirrored box. Add rose petals and cinnamon.
Place the target’s photo face-up on top of the herbs. Place your photo face-down on top of theirs, so you’re facing each other.
Add any personal concerns from both of you. Close the box lid.
Wrap the entire box with red string, making nine wraps and nine knots. Place it between two mirrors, so the box is reflected in mirrors on the outside too.
Light the red candle on top of the box. Say:
“Trapped in mirrors all around, [name]’s heart to mine is bound. Every side reflects my face, [name] cannot escape this place. Surrounded by my image clear, [name] wants me, draws me near. Mirror box, hold [name] tight, I’m all [name] sees both day and night.”
Let the candle burn down completely. Keep the box between the two mirrors permanently.
This creates the most powerful mirror love spell. The person becomes completely focused on you, thinking about you constantly and unable to be interested in anyone else.
How to Make Mirror Spells More Powerful
Basic mirror spells work, but these techniques multiply their effectiveness:
Use Personal Concerns
Adding hair, nail clippings, or other personal items from both you and the target makes the spell target precisely and work faster. The spell connects to the actual person, not just their image.
Work During Specific Moon Phases
Cast mirror spells during the waxing moon for new love or the full moon for powerful, fast results. The full moon amplifies mirror magic because the moon itself is a giant mirror reflecting the sun’s light.
Speak to the Mirror Daily
Talk to your mirror spell every day. Tell it what you want to happen. Remind it of its purpose. This keeps the energy active and growing.
Place the Mirror Strategically
Put the mirror where the target might see or sense it. If they visit your home, place it where their energy touches it. This creates a direct link.
Combine with Other Spells
Use mirror spells alongside honey jars, candle magic, or petition papers. The mirror reflects and amplifies the other spells’ power.
Anoint with Oils
Before sealing the mirror, anoint it with love oils like rose, jasmine, or ylang-ylang. The scent adds another layer of attraction magic.
Maintain Mirror Love Spells
Once cast, a mirror love spell needs minimal maintenance but benefits from these practices:
Keep It Safe
Never let the mirror break. A broken mirror breaks the spell and can reverse the magic. Store your mirror spell somewhere protected from damage.
Reactivate Monthly
Once a month, hold the mirror and repeat your original chant. This refreshes the spell’s energy and keeps it working strongly.
Add Candle Power
Burn a pink or red candle near the mirror once a week. The light feeds the spell and makes it glow brighter in the spiritual realm.
Don’t Show Anyone
Mirror love spells work best when kept secret. Don’t tell people about your spell or show them the mirror. Other people’s energy can interfere.
Trust the Process
Don’t obsessively check for results. Trust that the mirror is working and go about your life. Desperate energy weakens spells.
How Long Does a Mirror Love Spell Take to Work
Mirror love spells typically show results within:
Three to seven days: The person starts thinking about you more, checking your social media, or finding excuses to contact you.
One to two weeks: Direct contact happens. They reach out via text, call, or in person.
Two to four weeks: Romantic feelings develop or increase noticeably. The person shows clear interest.
One to three months: Full manifestation of your intention. The relationship forms, the ex returns, or the person commits.
Obsession mirror spells work fastest, often showing results within days. Marriage and commitment mirror spells take longest, requiring up to three months for complete manifestation.
The person’s resistance affects timing. Someone who already likes you will respond within days. Someone who doesn’t know you or has negative feelings takes longer as the mirror works to shift their perception.
Signs Your Mirror Love Spell Is Working
Watch for these indicators that your mirror magic activated successfully:
Direct Signs
- The person contacts you suddenly after silence
- They compliment your appearance or mention thinking about you
- They ask mutual friends about you
- They interact with your social media more
- You run into them in unexpected places
Energy Signs
- You dream about the person more frequently
- You feel warmth or tingling when thinking about them
- You sense them thinking about you
- Synchronicities increase – seeing their name, hearing songs that remind you of them
Physical Signs
- The mirror feels warm when you touch it
- Candles burn strangely when placed near the mirror
- You see flashes or movement in the mirror’s reflection
Trust your intuition. You’ll know when the spell activates because the energy between you and the target shifts noticeably.
How To Break a Mirror Love Spell
If you need to end a mirror love spell, do it properly to avoid backlash:
Safe Breaking Method
Remove any wrapping from the mirror carefully. Separate the photos from the mirror.
Hold the mirror and say: “This spell is ended, connection released, [name] is free, my magic ceased. What was bound is now undone, this mirror spell is finished and done.”
Cleanse the mirror with salt water. You can keep the mirror for other purposes or dispose of it.
Burn the photos and papers. Scatter the ashes in running water or bury them at a crossroads.
Never smash the mirror to break the spell. This creates shattered energy and can cause harm to both you and the target.
When Mirror Love Spells Don’t Work
Sometimes mirror love spells fail or work slowly. Common reasons include:
Lack of belief: If you don’t believe the spell will work, your doubt blocks the magic.
Wrong timing: Casting during the waning or dark moon weakens manifestation spells.
Target is protected: If the person has strong spiritual protection or someone else has magic on them, your spell might be blocked.
Conflicting magic: If you’re running multiple love spells on the same person that contradict each other, they cancel out.
Not enough energy: Single casting without maintenance won’t sustain long-term results.
If your mirror spell isn’t working after one month, recast it with stronger materials, better timing, and more personal concerns. Add obsession elements like cinnamon and damiana. Work the spell more frequently.
Combine Mirrors with Other Love Magic
Mirror love spells work powerfully when combined with complementary magic:
Honey jars: Place your mirror spell inside a honey jar or on top of it for double sweetening.
Candle magic: Burn candles on or near the mirror weekly to feed it energy.
Petition papers: Write detailed petitions and place them under the mirror to specify exact results.
Crystal grids: Surround the mirror with rose quartz, rhodonite, or garnet to amplify love energy.
Moon water: Use moon water to cleanse the mirror before casting or anoint it afterward.
The mirror reflects and multiplies the energy of other spells, making your entire magical practice more effective.
Advanced Mirror Techniques
Once you master basic mirror spells, try these advanced methods:
Two-Mirror Portal
Place two mirrors facing each other with photos between them. This creates an infinite reflection loop that traps the person’s image bouncing forever between the mirrors, intensifying obsession.
Mirror Sigil Magic
Draw a love sigil directly on the mirror with lipstick or red marker before placing photos. The sigil charges the mirror with specific intention.
Mirror Scrying for Timing
Gaze into your spell mirror during meditation to receive visions of when the spell will manifest. The mirror shows you the future.
Freeze the Mirror
After creating the mirror spell, place it in your freezer to “freeze” the person’s ability to resist or pursue anyone else. This combines freezer magic with mirror magic for maximum control.
Mirror and Photo Candle
Hollow out a red candle. Place a tiny mirror inside with both photos. As the candle burns, it melts the resistance between you while the mirror binds you together.
Final Thoughts
Mirror love spells are powerful magic that uses reflection to create attraction, binding, and obsession. By trapping two images together in a reflective surface and sealing that connection with wax, thread, and intention, you create a magical link that makes someone think of you constantly, see you romantically, and feel drawn to you.
Whether you’re attracting new love, bringing back an ex, creating obsession, or manifesting commitment, mirror love spells give you direct access to someone’s perception and thoughts.
The person sees you every time they look at any mirror, creating constant reminders that build into genuine attraction and desire.
Cast your mirror love spell during the waxing or full moon, use personal concerns when possible, maintain it with weekly candles, and trust that what you reflect in the mirror will manifest in reality.
