lavender oil (optional; be sure it is safe for skin!)
a rag
INTENT: To bring forth positive thoughts and help reduce nightmares.
STEPS:
Gather your water and salt into a bowl; use two drops of lavender oil if using.
Let the tip of your rag soak in the water.
Close your eyes and focus on the water. Charge it with positive energy by holding your hand over it, not touching.
Take your rag and gently dab it from one temple to the other, using 5-7 light dots of the soaked against your forehead while focusing on positive energies.
Place the ingredients into the cloth, bunch the corners and tie the cloth with the chord or thread. Carry the sachet in your pocket/purse/wallet or keep it by or under your pillow while you sleep.
So you’ve some nasty creepers hanging around. A ghost is rattling their chain and banging on walls. What a rude fucker. What do you do?
Summon your courage. Buck the fuck up. Look, ghosts are just dead people. They’re still fucking people. They might be assholes or they might be sweethearts. Don’t lump all ghosts together. I’m not saying don’t be scared because, fuck that, there’s invisible fucking people in your house. That’s nightmare fuel. But you can be scared and still be brave.
Get pissed. No, really. Get fucking angry. This sort of behavior isn’t acceptable. Think of alllllllllll the reasons you want them gone. Channel your inner Hulk if you have to.
Open ALL the doors and windows as much as you can. Make sure you can get to every single window and door in all the rooms plus the basement and attic if you have one. Even the closets, crawlspaces, cupboards, etc. ALL OF THEM.I’m not saying fling open that don’t and let Spot the Housecat get outside but even cracking it the tiniest bit will help. Clean the hallways and pathways as you’ll need to move as quickly as you can. Locking up said pets in their carriers, crate, cages, etc. during this is helpful too. You might want to chase out other people too. I find exorcising shit works best when I’m alone or with another woo~ person or two is helpful. You can get kids involved too, as I’ll explain in point 7.
Give a warning. Tell those dead intruders to get the fuck out. Threaten their ass with an exorcism.
Now get the chalk, salt, holy water, and rosemary herb stick. FYI, neither salt nor holy water works all the time but it works most of the time. For an herb stick get a bunch of rosemary and dry it together in a bundle. Ta-da. Pour some salt in your water to dissolve it. I find sticking the water in a squirt bottle or water gun works well. Figure out a system that works well so you can carry the herb stick, water, salt, and chalk. I find using a small salt pouch clipped to my pants by a carabiner works remarkably well.
Prep your protection shit. Get that shit ready to go. I tend to use rosemary, salt water, salt, chalk, and bay. Whatever works for you. Put it all in the same room you start in if you can’t carry it with you.
Chase it the fuck out. Yell and move as quickly as you can. Tell it to get the fuck out. It’s not welcome here and it needs to fucking go. Tell it all sorts of lies like if it comes back you’ll eat it or sic your familiars on it. IDK, just be as scary as possible. Start in the lowest portion of the house and work your way up. As you go, toss a light coating of salt at the windows, doors, closets, cupboards, etc. Spritz water in the same place as you’re throwing salt but also include the corners of the rooms and mirrors too. Slam door, window, cupboard, etc. shut. Now mark it with an ‘X’ in chalk. You could put a protection or banishing symbol up too. I just find the X easier. It should be clearly visible. If it isn’t, go back over it with the water. Do that with each and every room all the way up to the highest point of the house. It’s easier with more people and kids will have fun yelling at ghosts and throwing salt, squirting water, and slamming the windows and doors. If you’re lucky and have a third person available, they can come along behind you and lay on the protection right afterwards.
Make your home a fortress. Lock that shit up. Coat the glass, mirrors, faucets, etc with protection oil or water. Was the floor in a protection floor was. Go ahead and wash the walls and doors too. As you clean and protect each room, feel free to wipe off any of those chalk ‘X’s you run across. Make sure you bolster those defenses every so often to keep shit out.
What was that? You want to be subtle about it? Fine. Steep rosemary in salt water for 10-15 minutes. Pour that in a drinking glass and open one single window or door. Now go from each room as subtly as you can in step seven. Skip the yelling but just dab or flick the water. Be sure to get all the windows, doors, mirrors, and corner.
If this sort of spell doesn’t work, you’ll need to step up your game and become a Ghostbuster.
(BTW, I know this isn’t the same as the “Living People Version” but they have the same name in my book.)
ADDENDUM: In reference to the word “holy” previously being crossed out, I have commentary on why it was. (TL;DR: It was in reference to the very many holy water recipes that summarily are not created with a divine in mind and I forgot to explain the slight.) I have since uncrossed the word holy in deference for divinely created holy water.
Well, in some ways I suppose it doesn’t quite meet some folks’ opinions of a spell but hey.
What you need:
A clear and sunny day (note: this spell is designed for those living in a desert. If you do not, a day with a high UV index will work. weather websites will tell you the UV index for your area for the day)
a place to lie or sit comfortably in the sunlight (be safe; wear sunscreen as this can take some time)
What you do:
Get yourself into a comfortable position lying down or sitting in the sunlight. Close your eyes and feel the sun’s intense energy on your skin.
The sun is harsh and anything blocking its light casts long and obvious shadows. Focus on the shadows within you if you know them, or just envision a tree made of shadow, roots reaching far down and branches tall, blocking the light and natural energy flow.
Focus on the overwhelming energy and light outside of your body and bring it inwards, watching it burn away the shadows leaving nothing but raw sunlight across a flat plane. Feel the heat of the sun on your skin burn away any shadows creating chains on you in this realm. Sit/lay there until you feel that any spiritual, emotional, and magical gunk has been burnt away.
Options/variations
This is easily modified to break any spells cast on you and to reveal hidden truths. It can also be modified to use for banishing where instead of focusing the energy to burn away things clinging to you, you direct the pure solar energy to burn away and destroy the thing you want banished.
For more intense cleansings I like to incorporate creosote aroma either by burning it or via oil aromas to help strengthen the initial cleanse
What you need
1 orange
1 lime
1 lemon
1 sharp knife
1 paper bag
1 jug
Do this on a Saturday morning
– cut each piece of fruit into quarters, first the orange then the lime then lemon.
-rub the 12 segments of fruit in turn, first over your right palm and then over your left Palm. Say for each, so I remove all nastiness and I’ll intent from me.
-now take each segment as before and squeeze it hard in the jug. Say the same spell words for each.
-drop the drained segments into the paper bag and close it. Say:
Your power to reach me with your bad intent is dried up, spent. You trouble me no more.
-pour the jug of juice down the sink with the faucet running and the plug out say: your power to reach me with your bad intent is washed away, spent you trouble me no more.
-when the jug is empty, turn off the tap and let the jug dry upside down.
-throw the paper bag in the garbage bin outside your home.
strawberries are well known in magick to bring about good fortune and favourable circumstances. this is a simple spell to call the energy of the strawberry and bring you luck and perhaps help improve the outcome of a situation. best done during a waxing moon. you will need:
♥ a large ripe strawberry (luck, fortune, favor)
♥ a pinch of sugar (getting what you wish for)
♥ a green candle (good luck and fortune)
light the green candle and hold the strawberry in your hand. pluck the leaf from the top and wave it over the flame (so as not to burn it), then place it in front of the candle to rest.
as you hold the strawberry, think about the issue at hand and what you’d like the outcome to be. meditate on that until you feel as though the strawberry has been adequately charged.
sprinkle a bit of sugar onto your tongue and then eat the strawberry. blow out the candle, and carry the strawberry leaf in your pocket to bring good luck with you.
Hello, lovely witches! I put together this spell two to three weeks ago and the results have been amazing for me, so I thought I would share it with you all. ❤
What You’ll Need:
1 black candle
1 orange candle
1 green candle
1 white candle
Black pepper
Rosemary
Cinnamon sticks or powder
Bay leaves (to write your financial wishes on)
A money sigil
2 small pieces of paper
Cauldron or bowl to burn everything in
1.) Set up your candles and cauldron/bowl however you see fit, and light your candles. As your candles burn, take your two pieces of paper and write down good financial habits you wish to manifest into your life on one sheet, and bad financial habits you wish to expel from your life on the other sheet. Place the bad habit sheet under the black candle and the good habit sheet under the white candle. Let them burn out as you perform the rest of the spell.
2.) Take a cinnamon stick/powder and place it onto your money sigil, sprinkle just a bit of black pepper and rosemary on top. Place the rest of the cinnamon sticks, black pepper, and rosemary in your cauldron/bowl.
3.) Take your bay leaves and write your financial wishes on them, one wish per leaf! After that is completed, place the bay leaves in the cauldron/bowl with the rest of your ingredients. Meditate on the good habits and wishes you want to manifest into your life until you feel that the spell is ready to be continued.
4.) Fold/roll up your ingredient-filled sigil and burn it with the flames from each candle, place it in the cauldron/bowl and let it ignite the contents inside. Stare into the flame and chant as many times as you wish,
“I open the path to wealth with no end, for the money I need, the universe will send. I need no worry or no strife, I will bring wealth into my life. With bills paid and pockets overflowing, may my wealth remain always growing. Cause no harm as money comes to me, by my will, so mote it be!”
5.) Let your white and black candle burn out, let all the wax collect on your pieces of paper. Blow out the other candles. Bury the ashes in your cauldron/bowl and the paper with white wax and good habits outside your home, take the paper with bad habits and black wax far from home and bury it. Your spell is complete! Keep silent on the wishes you made, give the universe time to hear your call before you gossip of your spell to someone else, this will help your wishes manifest quicker!
I hope this spell helps you all! You may substitute and remove any ingredients you deem necessary in order to make this spell more adapted to your energy. You may even include tarot cards if you wish, you have complete freedom with this spell. I just made it in accordance to what felt right for me. ❤ Sending you all many blessings!
may the bridges I burn light the way
