The Spell

A Spell to Rid Your Living Space of an Unwanted Spirit

begin by putting everything in its proper place. Clean your house to perfection, open the windows, and bless all your magical implements.

Next, moving always to your left (counterclockwise, or wid-dershins as it is called in magical circles) anoint the doors, windows, and all openings of your home with a mixture of water (water), fennel (fire), oats (Earth), pine (air), and sage (wisdom). These represent all elements of the magic circle. For a blend that is less bulky, place the herbs in hot water to steep, then strain and use only the aromatic tea.

As you go, visualize bright light pouring from your hands into every area that houses shadows, saying, "Where light dwells, all darkness flee; Spirit move away from me. This home is mine, I will not fear, your presence is not welcome here." Follow the entire circuit of your home, repeating the procedure in every room. When finished, go outside if possible, making one full loop around the exterior. The leftover water can be refrigerated or frozen for future use.

Finally, return inside and move clockwise through each room while burning basil, dill, and marjoram. These herbs encourage blessings and joy. Invoke the protection of your personal God/dess on your sacred space of home. Then close the windows, leaving any negative spiritual energies outside.

General Uses

What are Spells?
From a religious standpoint, spells are a means of communicating with deity.
They are prayers to the God and Goddess, to the One, to Spirit, or whatever
form deity takes to each person. From a practical standpoint, spells are a
proven way to manipulate psychic energy to work for specific purposes as
outlined in the details of the particular spell. Like recipes, they are exchanged
and altered to suit the taste of each person who utilizes them. They are
colored by the personalities of the people who work them. Spells can take
many forms; some spells are simply thoughts and meditations. Other magic
spells, like the ones provided here, have many ingredients in them that allow
the practitioner to ease into the mindset of the spell and focus energy on the
desired outcome. The magic of the spell is enhanced and supported by the
physical actions taken, words spoken, herbs carried, incense burned, candles
lit, and many other methods used by Witches to reinforce their Wills.

The stereotype of Witches cursing or hexing people evolved out of fear of
the unknown, and the negative connotations associated with spellcasting
have been perpetuated by religious groups and movies depicting Witches as
evil, devil worshiping, malevolent magic makers. Spells are not necessarily
"Good" or "Evil" in nature. Spells are what you make them! Don't be fooled
by the name of a spell: a "Love Spell" that forces the emotion on an unwilling
person is manipulative, and will surely backfire. The Karmic Rule applies:
spells worked with the permission of everyone involved and for the good of
all bring benefits, while spells of a manipulative nature bring the invested
intent into the life of the person who sought to cause the harm. Love spells,
while seemingly harmless, can actually bend the will of the target. How would
you feel if you were forced to do something against your Will? We advise
that you keep this in mind before attempting manipulative magic on anyone.
