Banishing Spell

Banishing Spell

(to be done on the dark of the moon)

 

Ingredients: paper, pen and ink, two mirrors, black thread, candles (black or white), salt water; myrrh oil mixed with comfrey, hemp, dwale (deadly nightshade), thyme, mullein, or any three of these herbs.

 

Procedure: Write or draw on the paper what you would banish. Charge it with the full force of your repulsion. Anoint with oil, then with salt water, in the form of a waning moon. Fold the paper and place between two mirrors, with the reflecting sides facing IN. Bind them securely together with black thread or yarn and drip candle wax around the edges to seal. While you do this, envision the energy which emanates from the object of your spell being bounced back on itself, unable to pass the barriers you have set up around it. Say…

 

” Your eyes are shut, your cord is cut, go back to the Mother with Death as your lover. So mote it be.”

 

Take the spell to a place where it will not be disturbed and bury it, saying…

 

“By night your eyes are blinded, by clay your ears are stopped, by earth your mouth is sealed, by rock your limbs are bound; Thus I lay you down to rest, still and silent in the ground. As I do will, so mote it be.”

 

When you have finished the burial, kneel on the ground and say…

 

“By all the power of three times three, may this spell harm no other nor return to me As I do will, so mote it be.”

MOON PRIESTESS PERFUME:

1 Drop Queen of the Night Oil
3 drops rose oil
1 drop lemon verbena oil
4 fl. oz (120cc) white spirit

Blend the three oils in a bottle. Add the white spirit, and shake all vigorously. A cologne can be made by adding another 1 FL. oz (30cc) of white spirit and 3 fl. oz (90cc) of distilled water.

MOON PRIEST COLOGNE:

How To Charge The Oils (and their magickal properties) Used In Candle Charging

How To Charge The Oils (and their magickal properties) Used In Candle Charging

In a candle spell, we first charge the candle (or empower it), directing our own energy into the candle. This, like raising our energy before the spell, This, like raising our energy before the spell, is very necessary. Without charging, the candle basically has no power to bring you what you need. This energy we direct into the candle is then released when the candle burns, going into the world to create the change we desire. While charging a candle for a spell, anoint the candle at the same time. Anointing is simply rubbing oil, on the candle, intending to help direct energy into the candle. When performing a spell to attract something, or performing a positive spell of any kind, the candle is held between the index finger and thumb of your receptive hand (the hand you DON’T write with), and oil is rubbed on the candle from the tip to the center- and then from the bottom to the center with the finger and thumb of your projective hand (the hand you DO write with). The candle is never rubbed back and forth. By rubbing inward from the tip and inward from the bottom, we are “drawing” our intended goal to us.

 

To charge a candle for a spell to banish or dispel negativity of any kind, anoint the candle from the center outward. Hold the candle with the index finger and thumb of your receptive hand and rub the oil on with your projective hand- from the center to the tip, and from the center to the bottom. Again, never rub back and forth. Make sure to check the MOON phase before working any spell.

 

When using oils, make sure they are not synthetic but pure in form. I am listing a few of my favorite oils and there uses in magick:

 

To obtain peace – Myrrh Oil, gardenia,

To obtain protection – Lotus, lilac, frankincense, cinnamon, Juniper and Myrrh

To obtain employment – Success Oil

To obtain money – Bayberry, clove, heliotrope, bergamot, honeysuckle and peppermint

To obtain courage – High John the Conqueror and Yarrow

To bring about love – Rose Oil. frangipani, Musk, lavender Oil

To banish unwanted influences – your personal Zodiac Oil (mine Sagittarius), lilac

To protect against psychic attach – Jasmine, Lilac and Magnolia Oil

To strengthen psychic abilities – honeysuckle, myrrh, sage

To break a hex – Witch bane Oil

To obtain love – Dragon’s Blood Oil, Rose, Amber, Ylang Ylang, Vanilla and Frankincense Oil

To obtain sleep – Chamomile Oil, Lavender

To obtain happiness – Amber, bergamot, gardenia oil,

To bring about healing – Peppermint Oil , cedar, myrrh, gardenia, Lavender and Sandalwood Oil

To obtain elemental powers – Patchouli Oil

To master a situation – Bayberry Oil

To obtain strength – Pine, yarrow, rosemary oil

 

While anointing the candle, focus on the goal of your spell. Then imagine sending the energy you raised into the candle, flowing from your body and out your finger tips. Focusing completely upon what you are doing is necessary in any spell. Don’t allow your mind to wander. Focus on the outcome of the spell, and directing your energy. The list above will help you match the oil and candle needed for your “charging” and then the spell.

 

This is just a small list, there are hundreds of oils available at different stores throughout the world. I recommend studying the different oils and create your own.

 

Yule Soap

Yule Soap

1 cup grated unscented soap

1/4 cup hot water

1 tbsp. apricot oil

1 tbsp. chamomile

1/2 tbsp. rosemary

1/2 tbsp. ginger

6 drops frankincense oil

6 drops myrrh oil

3 drops cinnamon oil

Place grated soap in a heat-proof non-metallic container and add the hot water and apricot oil. Leave until it is cool enough to handle, and then mix together with your hands. If the soap is floating on the water, add more soap. Leave to sit for 10 minutes, mixing occasionally, until the soap is soft and mushy. Once the soap, water, and oil are blended completely, add the dry ingredients. Once the mixture is cool, then add the essential oils (essential oils evaporate quickly in heat). Enough essential oils should be added to overcome the original scent of the soap. Blend thoroughly and then divide the soap mixture into four to six pieces. Squeeze the soaps, removing as much excess water as possible into the shape you desire, and tie in a cheesecloth. Hang in a warm, dry place until the soap is completely hard and dry.
