Miscellaneous Spells

Banish Negative Energy from a House

Take four black candles and put them at each of the cardinal points of your house. Next to each candle put a piece of onyx or lodestone or a piece of magnetized iron. Light the four candles and see them sucking up all the negative energy in the house and channeling it back into the earth through the stones.

Next take a stick of incense (frankincense or sandalwood is best) and draw a banishing pentagram of Earth at each window, wall, door and corner of your house. (To draw a banishing pentagram of Earth: start at lower left then up to top then down to right then across to upper left point and back to upper right point and finish at lower left point.) Visualize the negative energy being pushed beyond the pentagram and locked outside as you complete it.

After the candles have burned a bit and you feel that the have absorbed the negative energies bury them outside around the house (in the four directions). Leave the stones where they are, and visualize them as a spiritual electric fence that keeps the negative energy or pesky spirits from coming back in.

Invisibility Spell

Invisibility is a term that is easily misunderstood. No, you cannot make a magical potion that you drink and *bing* become invisible. Sorry. But this spell will make you seem invisible to people. Sometimes it's nice you don't want attention or if you just want to be left alone.

If you want to be invisible to others- that is, people will look right past you like you aren't there (but if you punch them or something, they'll still see ya, sorry) try this.

Close your eyes and imagine a sphere of white light around you. Then imagine that the light starts to get blurry. It then takes on the colors and shapes of the environment around you. You fade into the light, becoming a part of it, until you completely disappear into the camouflage of the circle of light around you.

I've done this and tried to talk to people and they didn't even see me until I physically touched them, then they would just like- jump- like holy crap, how'd you get there? And normally, I'm a very noticeable person. I'm not used to being invisible like that but it was an interesting experiment- useful if you need to hide, want to be alone (no annoyances) or are somewhere you shouldn't be and don't want to get caught.

Releasing Ritual

WANING MOON SPELL FOR LETTING GO

Best done at sunrise,during a waning moon phase, Saturn day and hour This spell is designed to help release the stresses and worries of our day to day lives. Though best done during a waning moon phase, feel free to perform it anytime you feel blocked, sad, fearful, negative, angry or bitter.

You will need:

2 white altar candles
1 black candle
1 pink candle
Sage, frankincense or myrrh incense (for clearing) many small pieces of paper & a pen

RITUAL BATH: ADD salt to the water, or tie the following herbs in a small piece of cloth: hyssop, lavender and rosemary. Run under faucet.

As you inhale the aroma of the steaming herbs, visualize the steam breaking up any tension in your body, and exhale. Ask your body and spirit to release any thoughtforms that are not in accordance with your highest potential, and be willing to look at where you might be harboring doubt, suspicion, or fear. With each inhale, affirm that you are breathing in the healing energies of the Universe, and that you can transform yourself through meditation, patience and faith. With each exhale, affirm that the outmoded thoughtforms are transformed into NEW ENERGY that can be utilized for growth. ENERGY is neutral, so it is up to us to REDIRECT it!

Light your white altar candles and incense. They are symbolic of peace, truth and protection. Meditate for a few minutes on what that means to you personally. Is there anything in your life now that is not in sync with your personal truth?

Light the black candle. The color black is an absence of color, and therefore ABSORBS... the black candle will represent the absorbing/transforming power of the dark moon, and as we work with it, imagine the pain or anger being pulled out of you and absorbed and transformed by the energy that is symbolized by the black candle.

Take a small piece of paper, and write WITH AS MUCH EMOTION AS YOU CAN MUSTER one thing you want to release/transform.

Light one corner of the paper, and immediately drop it into a flameproof/heatproof dish (a large ashtray or a ceramic pot with some soil on the bottom would be ideal).

Repeat with any and all emotions, fears, resentments, gripes, angers, resentments, excuses, obligations, etc. etc. etc.

Until you feel CLEAR! If you still feel bad, keep going for a while! When you've cried, griped etc as much as you can stand, put out the black candle.

Light the pink candle. Put on your favorite music: something that makes you feel energized, happy and motivated! Now you need to focus on filling up the spaces left wher the old pain was! Time to fill it in with the AFFIRMATIONS of your choice...

Always write affirmations in the PRESENT tense! Keep repeating them over and over until you feel GREAT! BREATHE IN your new TRUTH.

When you are finished, put out the pink candle, and save it and the black candle until the next time you do this exercise! For maximum effect or serious depression/apathy, do this spell 3 days in a row (finishing on New Moon day).

If a drink is too hot move your finger around the rim of the cup widdershins and say ''cool the fire.''
