Healing Spell
To help hurry along a person's recovery from an illness, write their name on a human-shaped candle (based on gender). While anointing it with myrrh or mint oil, visualize healing energy in the form of white light, flowing from your fingers into the candle. Recite:
"In the divine name of the Goddess
who breathes life into us all
I consecrate and charge this candle
as a magickal tool for healing."
Place the charged candle on top of a photograph of the sick person, and then light the wick. As the candle burns down, concentrate on the person, willing them to be healthy, and chant this incantation:
"Magick mend and candle burn,
sickness end; good health return."
Healing a Friend or Relative
Purple paper
White yarn or string
A pair scissors
Fresh violets (whole, with stems)
Black pen
A purple candle
A small vase or holder (for flowers)
This spell is for healing a friend or family member. It is best done when the moon is full, but you can do it whenever you feel it necessary.
Light the candle and fill the small vase with water. Place the freshly cut violets in the little vase and say a chant, focusing on the well-being of the person and the healing of their ailment.
Cut a heart out of the purple and write the name of the person on one side, and a short but heartfelt "Get Well!" message on the other side. Poke a small hole in the top right side of the heart and thread the white string through it, tie it, and attach it to the vase.
Give the little vase of violets to the target person and await their recovery.
Easy Heal-All Spell
By Silventar- Silventar@aol.com
An easy to do All Heal Spell ... to aid in the healing of all conditions, or to soothe the symptoms of serious illness.
Items needed:
2 Bowls warm water
Bless or empower the water as you see fit... I just pray to the God and Goddess and ask them to aid me in my healing, then I send as much personal energy as I can into the water. Lie upon the bare earth (if not possible, floor is OK). Have each hand in a separate bowl of warm water, arms stretched out to the sides.
Visualise roots sprouting from the base of your spine, going down into the earth. Breath deeply, and with each deep, slow inhalation, feel the roots burrow deeper into the earth. see a bright light at the center...see your roots penetrate it... now with each slow, deep breath, draw up the energy from this light into you.
See two streams of light begin to come from the sky, one stream into each bowl...feel the love of the God fill the bowl to your left, feel the love of the Goddess fill the bowl to the right.
Draw this love from the bows into your body through your hands. Collect the love energy from the bows and the energy from the earth into your heart, where your most personal energy is kept. Build all the energy here...until you can contain it no more.
When you can no longer contain the energy in your heart, release the energy to flood your entire body, and shout as loud as you can "HEAL ME!!!" at the same time as the release.
Continue to draw the energy for a while, letting it flow through your body, and spilling onto the ground...relax, and enjoy the peace that will settle over you.
After you have relaxed for a while, draw up your roots into your body, remove your hands from the water, and sit up. Take a sip from the bowl to your left, and thank the God for his love, then spill it at the base of a tree. Then take a sip from the bowl at your right, and thank the goddess for her love, then spill it upon the same tree. In the future, care for this tree...it has been blessed by the love of the gods (the water) and it will aid you in your health.
Skin & Acne Healing
This spell is specifically for someone who has a skin problem that is persistant and makes them feel insecure or causes them irritation. This includes but is not limited to rashes, acne, bruises, and swelling.
Best if performed on a new or waxing moon, even better just before going to sleep. Following a bath, make yourself comfortable somewhere in your bedroom. You must be able to easily reach the problem area on your body or face. Place a hand over the skin. Close your eyes and imagine something calm and serene, specifically, a scene where there is water. This could be an ocean, a quiet lake, or rain in the tropics.
Chant three times:
"Goddess heal me
So mote it be!"
You can replace Goddess with the name of a healing deity if you wish. Move your fingers slowly over the infliction. Now imagine it is smooth, flat, and healthy. As you slowly pass your hand over the skin, it should feel almost as if it is already healed. Thank the Goddess or the deities invoked.
This spell, if successfully performed, will cause the skin problem to disappear within a few days. If you are having serious problems, see a dermatologist!
Moonweb AIDS Ritual
This ritual focuses on destroying barriers and increasing the positive elements that will help us overcome AIDS. The ritual space is purified according to personal practice. Invocations to Athena, Hermes, and/or Brigid may be done.
Those gathered will be divided into five groups. One will be assigned to each of the elements with one group in the center. Each group may be led by a particular coven or group of coven leaders. The center (altar) group will present each elemental group with the obstacle to overcome and later accept the positive "goal". We have divided the elements this way:
Air - Knowledge/Ignorance
Fire - Committment/Indifference
Earth - Funding/Red Tape
Water - Empathy/Hostility
When confronted with the obstacles the small groups will be wrapped with crepe paper by the center group. We suggest the spectral colors:
Air - Purple
Fire - Green
Earth - Red
Water - Orange
The groups break their bonds, overcoming the obstacle. When all four are done, each quarter group presents the center group with a candle symbolizing the positive quality. They are all placed on the altar and tied with silver thread. As they burn, the group can dance to raise energy. Afterwards, all are given candles charged during the ritual that were on or under the altar to take home and spread the light. Cakes and Wine/Libations can follow.
All present will be divided into five groups. In the east - air. In the south - fire. In the west - water. In the north - earth. In the center are the drama facilitators. Each group is "lead" by an experienced person.
Water, salt are consecrated. Circle is drawn with wand. Circle is blessed with water and incense.
Invocation to Athena, Hermes and Brigid as to purpose of rite.
Air group speaks INTELLIGENTLY on AIDS. Statements like "The HIV virus is very fragile and is only passed through intimate contact." They are all bound with PURPLE crepe paper. They begin to make IGNORANT statements like '"you can catch AIDS from shaking hands". They are temporarily defeated by the IGNORANCE of the crepe paper. Then they rally and tear apart their bonds.
Fire group speaks about dedication to finding a cure for AIDS, expressing COMMITMENT. They are bound with GREEN crepe paper. They speak with INDIFFERENCE. They slowly overcome and break free of their bonds.
The Water group talks about EMPATHY. They are bound with ORANGE crepe paper. They speak of HOSTILITY. They break free.
The Earth group talks about adequate FUNDING. They are bound with RED crepe paper. They become tangled in RED TAPE. They overcome the challenge.
Each group charges a taper with their positive element. The tapers are placed on the altar and bound with silver thread. They are lit and all dance around in a single or double circle and send energy out to spread our will. Extra candles on the altar are also charged.
Juice and cookies are blessed and shared. All are given candles to take home to spread the light.
The deities are thanked, and the circle is closed.
Healing After a Personal Loss
Here are two ways you can use magick in your search for healing after a loss. You can use either a ritual or a mojo bag. Below are some materials to choose from. Use only what you can find, and put together your ritual however you want. Because this loss is personal to YOU, you must write your own chant and put together the spell as it suits you. If I wrote it for you, it wouldn't work.
Herbs: Allspice, apple, bay, carnation, cedar, cinnamon, gardenia, flax, rowan, pine, rose, rosemary, thyme.
Colors: White, violet, and blue.
Fabrics: Silk or cotton.
Elements: Earth and fire.
Symbols/Amulets: Ankh, billiken, chai, cross, dragon, heart.
What I would suggest you use this info for is to create a sort of loss-bearing ritual, or create a mojo bag to carry with you which will help heal and strengthen your heart & soul.
For a ritual, burn a candle of one of the colors and incense of an herbal scent (one of those listed), and you should create your own chant while focusing on the healing you seek.
For a mojo bag, make a small bag of blue or purple cotton (or satin, or silk) and fill it with herbs and a small bit of earth. Tie it off tightly with a white string or ribbon, and if you would like, attach a small charm or talisman (see suggestions above) to the tie. Carry it with you, then just hold it in your hand and recite your own small affirmation (chant) whenever you feel the need.
Banishing Depression
From Casting the Circle.
You will need:
Goddess candle---White, once at center of the altar, or two at the back.
Banishing Candle---Black, placed at the left front of the altar.
Invoking Candle---Pink or red, placed at the right of the altar.
Incense---Sage, cedar, rosemary or pine at the beginning of the ritual, changed later to rose or amber. Burn loose herbs on charcoal blocks to do this.
Oils---Use Goddess or Altar oil on the Goddess candle; sage, pine or other banishing oil on the banishing candle; and rose oil on the invoking candle and for self-blessing.
Symbol Objects---Use a black gemstone for banishing, and a piece of rose quartz or a rose quartz pendant for invoking. Place the pendant on the altar and put it on before doing the self-blessing.
Matches to light candles and incense, charcoal blocks for loose incense, ritual wand (if used) to cast the circle.
Ritual Outline
Light candles---"Dress" the candles with the oils, working base to tip, (away from you) for the banishing candle and tip to base (towards you) for the invoking candle and the Goddess candles. Visualize the intent, banishing depression when handling the banishing candle, and invoking joy and self-love while "dressing" the Goddess and invoking candles. Light only the Goddess candles at this time.
Purify---Start the charcoal block and give it time to heat up. Sprinkle loose herbs of sage, cedar, rosemary or pine on the hot coal and use the smoke for purifing. Visualize the intent of the ritual, at this point visualize banishing depression and emotional pain, while smudging with the smoke. Then light the black candle from the Goddess candle.
Cast circle/invoke a Crone Goddess or Goddesses to help in banishing, and a Goddess of gentleness and peace for the invoking part of the ritual. Try Kali the Destroyer or Hecate for banishing, and Kwan Yin for gentleness and invoking. Use Goddesses for the five elements or these two aspects only, or whatever feels right. do a full casting and invoking to make the circle, or as informal invitation to the aspects and elements.
Invocation---Dear mothers of wisdom and grace, I invite you here to ask your help. I refuse my depression and choose to banish it, and ask instead for joy and peace of mind. Help me in my work tonight, Kali and Kwan Yin.
Body of ritual----Focus on the flame of the black candle, thinking of all the things that need changing. Remember fully all the reasons for depression and pain, acknowledge all your anger, all your rage, and all your fear. Dwell on every hurt, every feeling, every negativity. When you have focused them all onto the candle, shout "NO!" and blow the candle out in a decisive, quick motion. Watch the smoke rise from the extinguished candle, and feel all the negativity dissolving in the rising air. Breathe the banishing incense for awhile.
Now lighting the invoking candle. Do it from the Goddess candle, and sprinkle rose incense on the charcoal block. Let the light of the pink candle and the fragrance of the rose incense fill you as you watch and breathe them. Breathe the energies in deeply, remembering the qualities of Kwan Yin, or other Goddess'ess of mercy invoked in the ritual. Ask Kwan Yin for her presence and help.
Focus on the candle flame and think of all the good things in your life. Refill each banished item and negativity with some positive attribute; where there was pain before, replace it with love. For every wrong remember something to give thanks for; for every pain remember something joyfull. Remember your accomplishments in life, how good a woman you really are. Do a series of affirmations, "I am" or "I have", to list your good qualities and the qualities you choose to become or gain. Continue stating the positives and affirmations untill you feel filled with pink light and the scent of roses.
Self-blessing---Put on the rose quartz pendant or hold the rose quartz stone. Do the self-blessing ritual slowly and lovingly, anointing your chakras with the rose oil. Breathe the scent deeply and draw it into your body, emotions, mind and spirit.
Thank Kwan Yin for your joy and Kali for her energy of change.
Open circle/ground.
Allow the pink candle to burn out itself, or extinguish and relight it nightly untill at least the next Full Moon. Do affirmations nightly with the flame. Continue burning pink candles for as long as needed to remind you of new joy and positivity. Repeat the ritual on the next wanning moon if needed; it will be needed less each time you do it. Each time, bury the remains of the black candle in the earth, along with the ashes from the incense; visualize your pain being buried and recycled with them. Repeat the self-blessing at any time, and do it often, at least every New and Full Moon. Continue wearing the rose quartz pendant, or carry a piece of the stone with you at all times. Remember you are Goddess.
Do banishing rituals on the waning or dark moons. The day of Saturn (Saturday) is a good day to enter the labyrinth/unknown to change habits.
Healing the Rainforests
From Moon Web- Michael Harismides, PO Box 4538, Sunnyside, New York 11104-4538 [Subscription $3/yr]
Individual Version
Cast a circle
Invoke elements by calling upon them in protective aspects (for example, you might invoke Watchfires or Beacons in the South).
Chant the names of the Earth Goddess, beginning with your personal favorites, then naming as many as you can think of.
Take a piece of green string. Begin to tie knots in it, while chanting:
Tying the Cord, Renewing the Earth;
We are Her Children, bringing Rebirth.
(The knots may be simple or elaborate, but leave enough string to tie together at the end.) As you chant, see the world as a network of connected systems. Breathe the air that comes from the jungles of South America. Feel the living fire of an ocelot's power. Taste the rain on the leaves at the tops of the trees. Feel the delicate structure of the soil at the forest floor.)
Tie the cord together in a loop; hold it up, strung around your two hands, and begin chanting:
We are the Flow and we are the Ebb;
We are the Weavers, we are the Web.
As you chant, see yourself standing guard over the borders of the rainforest. See yourself with others, protecting rainforest as you would protect yourself, because that's what you're doing.
Bury the cord in a container of earth. Earth the power; thank the Deities and elements; open the circle. Later bury the cord in the forest if possible.
(If circumstances make the above impossible):
Sit quietly and see: the network of ecosystems that make up the world; the rainforests thriving; plants and animals breeding; the Earth, green and filled with life; yourself, standing guard. Breathe, and know that the air comes from the sea and the jungles of Brazil. Drink and know that the water has been around the world, and circulates through you as it does through the air, land, and sea. Stand up and stretch; the strength of your body is the Earth's strength.
Group Version
Facilitators give each participant a slip of paper containing the name of an Earth Goddess and a Nature God.
Facilitators invoke elements, stressing protective/preservative aspects of each one and ending with "Into this circle I call the Element Air! (Fire, Water, Earth.)" After each such invocation, a dancer or dancers representing the particular element come into the circle from outside and do an elemental dance.
A facilitator says: "We now call upon the Earth Goddess by her many names!" Participants call out the Goddess name on their slip of paper, then any other Goddess names they wish. This ends on a signal from the drums.
A facilitator says: "We now call upon the God of Nature by his many Names!"
The God is invoked in the same fashion as the Goddess, ending with a drum signal.
The elemental dancers go to the quarters and begin passing out pieces of green string, while a facilitator explains that the condition of the rainforests affects us all, that all things are connected, and that the worldwide climate is changed every time another acre of rainforest is lost. S/he explains that these sections of cord represent parts of the Life Circle of Earth, and that they must be joined to protect her.
When the above speech has been made and all the cords have been passed out, a facilitator ties the first knot, saying that tying the cord is renewing the Earth, that we are her children, bringing her rebirth. This is the signal to begin the chant:
Tying the Cord, Renewing the Earth;
We are Her Children, bringing Rebirth.
Clockwise around the circle, one by one, each cord is tied to the next. When the circle is complete, the elemental dancers go to the quarters and hold the cord aloft (participants should not let go yet). The chant continues until the facilitators begin a second chant:
We are the Flow and we are the Ebb;
We are the Weavers, we are the Web.
(Since this is to the same tune, the transition should be easy and seamless.) When this chant begins, the elemental dancers begin to gather in the cord, gently pulling it away from the participants, who gently release it. The elementals bury the cord in a container of earth in the center of the circle, then return to the outside to lead a spiral dance in to the center and back out (once) as the chant continues. When the participants are standing in a circle once more, the chant builds to a cone of power and fires.
The Deities and Elements are thanked, the power is earthed, the circle opened, hugs exchanged. Later bury the cord in the woods.
