Basic Courtcase Candle Spells

Brown and/or purple candles are burned for legal success and victories: brown represents justice, while purple represents power.

The most basic court case spell is as follows:

  1. Obtain an appropriate candle.

  2. Hold it in your hands, charging it with your power and desire.

  3. Carve and dress the candle as desired, and then burn it.

To dress the candle use one of the basic courthouse condition oils such as Commanding Oil or any combination of other oils you might prefer.

Broom Cleansing Spell (5)

When moving into a new home, do not bring your old broom with you. Do not use any brooms the old inhabitants may have left behind. Start with a brand new broom.

  1. Obtain a new broom to use exclusively in your new home.

  2. The first time it’s used, soak it in salted Florida Water and sweep away.

Broom Cleansing Spell (4)

Hyssop and vervain are particularly ancient space cleansers. Hyssop is cited in biblical accounts of Temple cleansings, although there is some doubt as to whether the herbal species now identified as hyssop is actually the same  as the one in the Bible. Regardless, what we know today as hyssop has been used as a potent spiritual cleanser for centuries.

Vervain was used to cleanse the temples and altars of ancient Greece and Rome. Effective separately, the two herbs share an affinity and combine well together.

  1. Make a strong infusion from the herbs.
  2. Add this to a bucket of salted floorwash water together with white vinegar.
  3. Make a single use broom, particularly from vervain and/or hyssop. Use it to asperge and scrub with the infusion.
  4. When you’ve completed the cleansing spell, dispose of the used water outside your home. Take the boom apart and scatter the parts outside.

Broom Cleansing Spell (3)

Any broom may be used in this spell, homemade or commercial, however it must be discarded at the conclusion of the spell.

  1. Add an infusion of lemongrass and some white or rice vinegar to a bucket filled with water. (If you have time to make lemongrass vinegar, this is even more effective than the infusion.)

  2. Dip a broom into the bucket of floorwash and sweep the area from the center working your way outwards. This does not need to be a commercial broom. A branch with attached stiff herbs is fine, however a mop may not be substituted.

  3. When complete dump the wash water outside and discard the broom at a crossroad.

Broom Cleansing Spell (2)

This spell incorporates a single-use magickal purification broom.

  1. Use one or any combination of the following herbals: broom, cedar, fennel, hyssop, rosemary, sage, vervain.

  2. Arrange the herbs and tie them to the bottom of a branch with raffia, visualizing, charging and knotting. (Any branch may be used, however an ash branch is considered particularly powerful.)

  3. Sprinkle with salted water or any preferred purification formula.

  4. Sweep the area.

  5. Disassemble the broom outside, away from the cleansed space.

  6. Bury the components in the ground or toss them into living waters, flowing away from you.

Broom Cleansings

You thought witches’ brooms were only for flying? Or perhaps they’re for ambience? Think again: a broom is as effective a spiritual cleanser as it is a household cleaning tool. Some maintain special ritual brooms for magickal use only. Some spells call for really special ritual brooms, intended to be used only once then destroyed, while other spells utilize any available broom, including the one you use for regular daily sweeping.
