4 tbsps Frankincense or Myrrh
4 tbsps Black powdered Iron
4 tbsps Sea Salt
4 tbsps Orris-root Powder (or oak moss)
1 white candle
1 glass bottle with a cork or lid
Mortar and pestle
Parchment Paper
Black Ink or black pen
Black thread
Mix the sea salt, orris-root powder, and the iron in a bowl. Then cut
a piece of parchment to fit inside your bottle and write on it with
black ink:
I neutralize the power of (name of adversary) to do me any harm. I ask that this be correct and for the good of all. So mote it be!
Roll up the parchment, tie it with a black thread to bind it, and place it in the bottle. Fill the bottle with the dry ingredients. Then take the white candle and while turning the bottle counterclockwise, drip the wax over the cork to seal it. Last, secretly bury the bottle in a place where it will not be disturbed and no animals or people will dig it up. This spell is like a genie in a bottle. It should never be unleashed or the power of the spell is lost.
Cast the Circle.
Set up your altar with the bowl in the center, and ring the 12 white
candles around the bowl.
Set the small mirror in the bowl, and fill the bowl with fresh water.
Stand, lighting the first candle. Feel its power resonate within you. Walk clockwise (deosil) as you light each one. When finished, sit, clear your thoughts, and light the incense.
Stand and walk counterclockwise(widdershins) with the round mirror in your hand. Reflect the candles' light into the smaller square mirror, reflecting its light. As you walk, say:
Mystic mirror, reflective light,
shine on me, shine bright.
Guided with your trusted light,
risen like the sun, enviously shining bright.
lunar light, protect me forever.
Blessed Be.
Put out the candles by sprinkling the water over top of them.
Close the circle. Then, take the mirror from the bowl and go outside.
Reflect the mirror into the sky, and thank the Goddess for giving you
her divine light.
You can hang the mirror on a chain and wear it, put it in a doorway,
etc.
It can reflect negative and postive energies.
To banish negative energies from a person, use the mirror and chant:
May your evil be warded off, forever in the name of the Goddess of
the Moon, and Seas,
and the God of the Sun, and the forest for all eternity!
You will need:
a bell
a sacred book
a white candle
frankincense incense
Burn the incense and lay the book open with the bell and lit candle next to it in the room where the presenced is.
State loudly and clearly: "Away away my demand is clear your presence is not welcome here"
Ring the bell, close the sacred book, snuff the candle flame with your fingers.
Leave the incense burning until it is finished, then open the windows and waft the smoke out.
To continue keeping the space clear regularly burn frankincense and white sage incense. You can also make white linen sachets (from hankerchiefs, just sew up the sides) and stuff with equal amounts of rosemary and garlic and hang them around the room.
Begin this working any time during the waning moon. Set aside thirty minutes each day to focus yourself and perform this working. The components of this working have been selected for their attributes in several areas such as healing, purification and memory enhancement. This spell is performed over a period of three nights.
Components:
A quiet space
3 candles - one for each night tapers or votives: choose your color: popular choices would include black for banishing the habit, orange for change, red for courage, white for general use, etc.
Salt - sea salt or other available salt, about 1 Tablespoon
Rosemary herb - Rosemarinus officinalis - a small handful or about 1/2 oz.
Parchment - or a small piece of quality paper about 4" X 4"
Your favorite writing instrument for rituals
A small cloth pouch or bag this can be any color and you could match it to the color you choose for your candles.
Frankincense resin - Boswellia carterii - about 1 Tablespoon
A censer, cauldron, or heat proof dish with a small amount of sand or gravel placed in the bottom
Three Self- ignighting charcoals - the type used for incense, not the kind used for outdoor barbeques which contain toxins.
Arrange all of the spell components near you - don't forget to bring something to light the candle and charcoal with and make sure that the incense won't trip your smoke detector! What a shock that would be to your focus! Light the charcoal and place it in the censor.
Sit quietly for a few minutes to focus on what you desire to achieve with this working. You may choose to erect a "circle of protection" or "circle of power" at this time if that is your standard proceedure.
Using your favorite writing instrument and the parchment, write down a few key words that describe the habit you wish to rid yourself of. Here are some examples: If you wish to release you
r anger or frustration about a current situation, so you could write something like: "I will not let this get to me, I hereby set my anger free". If you wish to release yourself from eating suggary snacks each afternoon, you might draw a picture of a piece of candy with an X over it. This is the time to use your creativity and make the working an extension of your energy by personalizing it. Your words do not have to rhyme, your picture does not have to be artistically rendered, it does not have to make sense to anyone else but you.
Light one of the three candles, and re-focus your intent. While you are lighting the candle you may choose to say your favorite words for Fire blessing or something like, "The Fire within me is strong. I have the courage and desire to change." Place the parchment in the cloth pouch.
Place the Rosemary and Frankincense in the pouch while keeping your focus on your intent. Turn the pouch over several times to mix everything, then reach in and remove a large pinch of the resin and herb mixture (not the parchment). Place the mixture you removed on the charcoal to burn and take several deep, steady breaths. You may wish to say your favorite words for Air blessing or something like, "With each breath, I know that I can change."
Add the Salt to the pouch. Keep focusing on your intent. Again, you may choose to say your favorite words for Earth blessing or something like, "I have the strength of the Earth. I have the will to change."
Sit quietly for a few more minutes and consider different ways you help yourself to alter your behavior. You will find that many new ideas will arise in your mind that you previously had not thought of. Allow the candle to burn down in a safe place and keep the pouch with you. You can place it under your pillow or at your bedside while you sleep.
On the second night of the spell, light another charcoal and place it in the censor. Light the next candle. Hold the cloth pouch in both hands and take several deep, slow breaths. Focus your intent to alter your behavior. Try to keep your focus for as long as possible. If you were not perfect in changing your behavior since last night, do not feel guilty or frustrated. Change takes time and the spell isn't over until the habit is transformed.
Reach into the pouch and remove a large pinch of the herb, resin, and salt mixture. Place it on the burning charcoal. At this time you may wish to confirm your intent by saying something like, "As I will it, so mote it be!" or "So be it!" Let the candle burn down in a safe place.
On the third night. Light the last candle and the last charcoal. Repeat the proceedure from the second night except this time, remove the remainder of the resin, herb & salt mixture, AND the parchment from the pouch. Place the mixture and the parchment on the charcoal. Set the pouch aside and focus on your intent while you watch your parchment/mixture burn. You may wish to help the parchment along by touching it to the candle flame and then dropping it into the censor. Again, you may wish to confirm your intent by saying something like, "It is so!" or "So mote it be!"
If you believe that a spell has been cast against you, place a large black candle in the cauldron (or a large black bowl). The candles must be tall enough to extend a few inches above the cauldron's rim. Affix the candle to the bottom of the cauldron with warmed beeswax or the drippings of another black candle so that it will not tip over.
Fill the cauldron to the rim with fresh water, without wetting the candle's wick. An inch or two should remain above the water. Deeply breathe, meditate, clear your mind and light the candle. Visualize the suspected spell's power as residing within the candle's flame. Sit in quiet contemplation of the candle and visualize the power flowing and growing within the candle's flame. (Yes, the power against you) As the candle burns down, it's flame will eventually sputter and go out as it contacts the water. As soon as the flame has been extinguished by the water, the spell will be dispersed.
Break your visualization of the spell's power; see it explode into dust, becomin impotent.
Pour the water into a hole in the ground, a lake or stream. Bury the candle. It is done.
