Healing Spells

Healing Spells

Although healing spells are done with the best of intent, one must get the permission of the person being healed to perform the spell to follow the wiccan rede of "harm none"

Modern Healing Spell

To help speed the recovery from an illness:

Write the name of the person needing to be healed upon a human shaped candle (Make sure it is of the correct gender)

Visualize healing energy in the form of white light flowing from your hands to the candle. While annointing the candle with myrhh or mint oil, say these words:

"In the divine name of the God that breathes life into us all, I consecrate and charge this candle as a magikal tool for healing."

Place the candle above a photo of the person in need. Light the candle. As the candle burns down, concentrate on the person in the photo. Concentrate on sending the person in the photo healing energy. Visualize the white light gathering into a ball and streaking to the person in need. As this is done, chant the following:

"Magick mend, and candle burn
Sickness end, and good health return"

Hold this as long as possible. Then, making sure the candle is in a safe place, in a fireproof receptacle that could hold all the wax should the candle melt everywhere, allow it to burn until it goes out by itself. Bury the rest in the yard.

Lodestone Healing Spell

Pray over the lodestone, which you have kept in a red charm bag and used only for healing. Tell the lodestone you want it to remove all sickness from a person, naming the person by name. Then take the lodestone and pass it over the person's body from head to toe, one stroke at a time. After each stroke the stone is dipped in a bucket of cool water. This requires about 50 strokes from the center of the head to the toes. If the person is bed ridden they must be turned to allow the magnet to strike every part of the body. Once the stroking is complete the lodestone should be thanked and replaced in its bag. The bucket of water should be emptied in the middle of the street. Be careful that it doesn't splash the person who empties it.

Long Distance Healing

3 white candles, incense (allspice or rosemary), parchement paper, Quartz crystal

Place the candles on the altar in a semi-circle, and light them. Clear your mind and meditate for a few minutes to prepare yourself for the task at hand. When you are sufficiently centered, light the incense. Write the name of the spells intended recepient on the parchment paper. Place the paper in the inside of the semi-circle, with the quartz crystal on top. Watch the flames, breathe in the incense, and gather your energy. When you have gathered enough energy, focus on the sick person. Release the energy through the crystal to the recipient. Visualize the energy speeding to the person. Hold the visualization as long as possible, and then allow the candles to burn themselves out.

Depression

3 black candles
3 white candles
cedar chips, rose petals, catnip, cinnamon

Go outside, somewhere where you can feel the air, and open a circle. Kneel in the middle of the circle facing east. Place the candles in a semicircle in front of you, and light each one. On a fire proof plate, start a small fire of cedar chops. Sprinkle the rose petals, catnip and cinnamon in the fire white saying:

Earth and Fire, Water and Air
Hear my prayer, Hear my prayer
Take this depression,
Take it away
Give me the strength
To face a new day.

When the fire dies down, splash a little blessed water on the fire. Take the wet ashes and throw them as far from you as you can and say:

With these ashes go my pain,
From the healing fires,
New strength regained.

Thank the elements for hearing you, and close the circle.

Headaches and Other Bodily Pains

Rub a nail on the part of the body with the pain or sleep with the nail. Visualize the pain being absorbed into the nail. Then go outside with hammer or a rock and pound the nail into the ground, visualizing the Earth absorbing your pain.

Gaia Healing Spell (By Gerina Dunwich, The Wicca Spellbook)

To send out positive "healing" vibrations to the planet, perform this spell during an eclipse or when the Moon is in a waxing phase.

Arrange seashells on a secluded beach to form a magick circle at least five feet in diameter. (If you do not have access to a beach, you may perfom this spell in a forest or secluded garden using stones, branches and/or flowers tor form the circle.)

Kneel in the center of the circle, facing the ocean. Light a blue candle and a stick of incense and place them before you. Raise your arms high with palms up in a traditional Witch's prayer position, and recite the following chant:

"With smoke and flame
This spell's begun.
O Goddess of the Stars,
Moon and The Sun,
Let the Healing Power Begin.
Let the Earth be whole again.

The Earth is my Mother
And I am Her child.
The earth is my Lover
Free and Wild.
Heal on the outside; heal within,
Land and Sea, Fire and Wind.

With love sincere I chant this prayer
To make mankind begin to care.
Let every sister and every brother
Heal the wounds of the Great Earth Mother.
Let the healing power begin,
Let the Earth be whole again.
Heal on the outside, heal within,
Land and Sea, Fire and Wind.

So Mote it Be!"

A Ritual to Heal the Oceans (Scott Cunnigham, Earth, Air, Fire & Wind)

This is a rite for the oceans of the world. Despite modern knowledge concerning the fragility of our oceans, pollution continues. If you have an opportunity to do so, go to the beach at least once just to perform this ritual. If not, perform it at home. This isn't the time for private, personal spells. This is a time of giving to the oceans: of lending them the strength to survive.

Walk into the water. Contact the element. Get wet (you needn't swim). Then sit on the sand.

Flow from one visualization to the next. Maintain each for as long as you can before continuing on.

-Visualize a sparkling clean ocean, free of pollution. The moon shines onto it, scattering silver light upon its vast expanse. Waves break as they approach you, each strong and pure and clean. The foam glows with blue-green light.

-Visualize the swells that create waves, formed in distant places. Feel their power. Visualize them as being strong and pure and clean.

-Visualize a beach on a hot summer day. See people taking their trash with them. Visualize the oceans a being strong pure and clean.

-Visualize a harbor bustling with shops. See their ownders and all who sail on the sea refusing to pollute the water. Visualize the oceans as being strong and pure and clean.

-Visualize a city by the ocean. SEe its factories refusing to discharge toxics into the water. Visualize the oceans as being strong and pure and clean.

-Visualize our planet as seen from space. See its inhabitants as ocean-loving creatures, surrounded by water. Visualize its oceans as being strong and pure and clean.

-Visualize a sparkling clean ocean, free of pollution. The sun shines onto it, brightening its vast expanse. Waves break as they approach, each stron and pure and clean. The foam whitely glistens. Fish swim beneath its surface through clear water. Crabs scatter on the surf-splashed rocks. Coral polyps build reefs. Dilphins and seals dance through the waves. Whales echo their calls. Restless sharks maneuver through the depths. Seaweed waves in shadowy spledor.... and throughout the world, we finally realize that the ocean is our mother, and that we'll take care of her.

Following the visualization, touch the water once again.
