We have found that this simple spell has been very effective in harmonising our inner mechanisms and bringing a feeling of well-being to us. Here it is:
I was in Gym class one day and was rather sore when this spell comes to me. That's how I get most of my magic, but don't get me wrong. I always try my spells to make sure they work first. Many don't, but this one did.
1 DOVE FEATHER (preferably one that crosses your path by chance, but definitely one which has NOT been plucked, but has fallen naturally.)
2 BLUE CANDLES (for healing, tranquility, peace and forgiveness)
LAVENDER BATH SALTS OR OIL (for love, peace, happiness, purification and protection)
1 CINNAMON STICK (OR CHIPS) (for spirituality, success, healing, power, love and protection) ALTAR BELL
On the night of a NEW moon, gather the items and place them on your altar (or, if you have the privacy, outside on a tree stump or other earth area). Take one blue candle and the lavendar bath salts or oil and bathe in the lavendar by the light of the blue candle, concentrating on that which requires healing. (If you cease bathing before the candle is completely burned out, do NOT extinguish the flame by blowing it out, but do extinguish it.)
Once at your altar (or earth place), light the blue candle and recite the following:
It is time to awaken to the cry of the dove, Harken to the chimes of the bells of love, Spirit rise and soul take flight, Into the halls of endless night Where shadows ceases to fall upon The brilliant light of endless dawn. The fire, cold, burns radiant Consuming all in sweet content. The joy a pain, the peace a wound, The pain a peace, the joy a boon.
You don't have to memorize this, but it's best that you read and understand it before reciting.
Next, light the cinnamon stick or chips (the stick works best) with the candle flame. Pass the dove feather through the flame (quickly, so as not to set it afire) then the cinnamon smoke, in that order, three times. While still holding the feather, ring your altar bell three times. Leave the cinnamon burning in your censure 'til it goes out on its own, and leave the candle burning 'til it does the same.
Take the feather outside and place it under a tree (elder, preferably, but any will do) -- place it under a different tree if you are performing this spell near a tree outside. This will set it free, freeing you as well. DO NOT touch the feather again, let it leave on its own!
cut a piece of red felt or flannel thin and long enough to wrap around your neck, directly in the center (where the back of your neck will be when wearing it) sew the symbol for healing, or any other symbol you feel apropriate w/white thread. At night before bed warm the cider and add some cin. and cloves and stir. Drink up. wear the flannel to bed around your neck. Repeat this for three nights and you will fell so much better. It works!
A Protection/Cleansing Spell
Cleansing/protection
With harm to no one set me free. In your will, so shall it be.
Chant this spell 9x's.
***Let the candles burn until you feel the relief and cleansing .
And again poor some wax from each of the candles onto the base of a tree. It
gives back to the earth by protecting the tree from the cold.
Light three white candles, one blue and two yellows.
Before lighting each of the white: Hold them until your energy fills them
up.
When lighting the blue: try to relax and let you mind feel at ease. When
lighting the yellows: Think of something vivacious.
Oh mother earth hear my prayer, take away my negative fear.
For in my heart I know I'm strong. Take the fear and bind it long.
Protect my soul and all those I know. For in your strength I, myself bestow.
Cleanse my space and help me face all things( rumors, etc.) standing in my
way.
