The Beauty Way Healing Spell

“In her book Motherpeace: A Way to the Goddess Through Myth, Art and Tarot VIcki Noble (copyright 1994 Pages 123-124) suggests the Navajo Beauty Way ritual for treating rape victims. Try this prayer:

The world before me is restored in beauty.

The world behind me is restored in beauty.

The world below me is restored in beauty.

The world above me is restored in beauty.

All things around me are restored in beauty.

My voice is restored in beauty.

It is finished in beauty.

It is finished in beauty.

I think this is a great idea. The Beauty Way ritual can also be used to treat people who are working out issues of incest or child abuse, emerging from domestic abuse, war, or any other violent situation. The Beauty Way is about survival, about healing and wholeness. The full Navajo ceremony takes several days to complete, including sand painting made by the shaman who preforms it. This prayer, which is part of a much longer one, can be used with purification rites to form a Wiccan (or any pagan path) healing ritual.
