new moon banishing ritual

a ritual to banish negative people and influences from your life, using the energy of your favorite/dominant planet

During a new moon, the Earth and the Sun are separated by our dusty little satellite. The Moon rises and sets with the Sun, bright face turned away from us, giving us time to reflect and rid ourselves of baggage before setting out on our new endeavors come the first sliver of the waxing crescent.

The new moon is a time of darkness and an excellent occasion for ridding yourself of those darker influences in your life. Using the energy of your dominant/favorite planet, this new moon ritual can help liberate you from the shackles of your fears, bad habits, or negative people in your life.

Setting Fire to the Baggage. A spell to move forward.

Our lives are complicated, and each of us hold a different aspect of our lives in greater priority. For some, it’s love. For some, success. And others? I couldn’t begin to tell them all. And just as it goes with our triumphs, the moments in life that make us smile a smile that is more honest than even we would like to admit; so goes failures. Some experience occasionally, others daily. Our failures shape us, we wouldn’t learn from them otherwise; but sometimes we fall into the trap of letting those failures and losses define us. They become the shadows in our heart that keep us from living in the moment, because all too often that good moment has turned into something painful. The happiness never lasts. But that doesn’t mean it can’t be made anew.

What you’ll need: -Paper (preferably from a journal/grimoire, but paper is paper in the end). -pen/pencil -lighter -a safe place to set shit on fire. (Be mindful of nature and be careful if doing this indoors, please.) - a moment to let yourself cry it out. - a drink (optional)

Take that paper and writing utensil and write a list of every bit of baggage that’s holding you back. That time you got fired, that entire period of your life was just shit, every lover you’ve ever had. Write it. And know that you’re going to live it, if for only the moment that you’re writing it down. It’s going to hurt. Do not hold back the tears, this the time to start letting it all out.

Carry your paper to wherever you burn things, and in your hands, hold it out to the universe. Repeat after me:

My current situation Is not my final destination These things have shaped me, But they will no longer define me. I am (your name here) And I (your main goal in life) And the past is not strong enough to keep me from it anymore. It is known.

Now light it up, and watch it burn. Cry, drink, etc. cathartic release as you watch the baggage burn in front of you. Congratulations, you’re a new witch. You’ve got the strength to move on from here.

Spell to get over someone/move on

As we move in to another season, we may feel the need to let go of some things in life to welcome the new. Do this simple spell if you need a little support to move a step away from situations or people who are toxic to you. 

You will need:

1 Black candle ( banish negativity, healing and support through loss and grief, ridding of bad habits ) Peppermint/eucalyptus essential oil to anoint candle 1 Bay leaf

Anoint the candle and light it. Write what you want to achieve on the bay leaf (paper works fine as well). Burn it and visualize all your negativity and pain vanish and fade away. Release your wish to the universe, into the wind or the water whichever you feel more connected to. As you snuff out the candle/let it continue to burn out, let it absorb all you hurt and let the fire’s energy heal you. Focus on your intent of allowing the fire to give you the strength and power you need. Release what does not serve you and open your mind and soul to opportunities that await. After you have released the ashes and the candle light is out, you may dip your hands in a bowl of water to symbolize a clean start. 

My version of it (origami version)

1 white or black candle (optional)

lavender oil (optional)

white or black origami paper

first being by taking some of the lavender oil and putting some on the candle.

then take something to write with and write the person’s name on the blank part of the origami paper.

try to form something basic such as: a heart or a cup.

then light the candle and while your looking into the flame imagine you and this person walking away from each other in different directions

try not to turn around.

when the image is strong enough in your mind say out loud or in your mind:

(Person’s name) I Realease you from my life i’m moving on and you can no longer effect me anymore.

If you can burn the paper on the candle flame or you can just tear up the paper and realease it to the wind (if there is a windy day of course).

JUNE? what's next, July??? Heaven forbid, August??? When does the nonsense end!!!

Actions in Witchcraft

Just like each herb and crystal has certain properties and strength, so do actions taken during rituals and spells. When writing spells it is important to include the proper actions to make sure your spell is as effective as possible.

Burning - Burning an object is a common practice in spells and rituals. Fire is considered a cleansing and activating force.

Burying/Abandoning - A Witch might bury and object for many reasons. They might want to put something to rest, perform a slow spell, or banish something. There are different ways in which one can bury an object to accomplish a desired outcome:

Rubbing - Rubbing an object can be the easiest and most immediate way to experience witchcraft. Transferring and garnering energy from objects can be done through physical contact with an object.

Soaking - Water is one of the main elements used in witchcraft. It comes in many forms with many different properties and uses.

Spell to Get Over Someone

This is  spell to get over a lover or very close friend, it will help you to move  on and separate your emotional attachment  to them; while helping your heart remain open to future love and intimacy. This spell is  also in no way a hex, or something to hurt your ex; but instead something to make you feel better emotionally

Spell should be done the night of the new moon, and requires:

- a new moon

- white candle or light pink candle

-honey

- dried rose petals

-dried lavender

-birch essential oil

-knife or other tool to inscribe symbols

- picture of you and your former lover / close friend

-envelope 

The first thing you should do after casting your magic circle is to inscribe things in your candle, things that you want to manifest internally. Personally I choose to inscribe “peace” “healing” and “happiness” but other inscriptions such as “wellness” “love” and “separation” could also help you manifest the mental state that you want. 

 Afterwards, dress your candle with the ingredients stated above. When this is done, light your candle and say the following words:

“With the power of the new moon in me,

Ill forget who we used to be,

your love I will no longer depend upon, 

for when I am ready I will move on,

and although I’m glad we have had each other,

I will inevitably love another. “

Repeat several times or until you feel the spell take power.

When this  is done and the candle is almost burnt out, take a picture of you and the person you are trying to get over, put it in an the envelope, and with the wax from your candle, seal the envelope tightly so that it can no longer be opened; while repeating the above chant one more time. This will symbolize the closing of your past together, and the sealing of it using the magical candle wax will add more power and significance.

You can choose to put the picture away somewhere: I choose to bury mine to give the spell more significance. 

End note: remember that although you may be in pain right now, there will one day be another person that you can love that will love you back. And although you may miss your ex, it is probably not  a good idea to get back together with them at the present. You broke up for a reason, and you don’t want to put yourself in a toxic situation again.

edit: I accidentally said full moon! I meant new moon!!! of course the full moon can also be utilized but the new moon is a time for new beginnings and manifestations. 

idk why I am reblogging my own content but I am going through another breakup and just realized how much I need this  😭
