BANISHING

Banishing is far more specific and direct than warding.

✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿✨🧿 ✨🧿✨🧿

WHY IS IT USED?

Banishing is used to get rid of a particulur energy, spirit, or person. Think carefully before banishing, as it's a strong form of defensive magic.

BANISHING METHODS

USE THE ELEMENTS

burn a slip of paper with your target's name on it

throw a leaf with your target's name on it into a running river/stream

CANDLES

when the candle has burnt out. the banishing is complete

SIGILS

HERBS + TINCTURES

use herbal smoke to force energy out of a space or object

make a spray or herbal tineture to sprinkle around your home

Warding is a gentler form of defensive magic that is used in a more general sense.

Teas and Tinctures

A more mundane method of producing sleep are herbal teas and tinctures. Caution is advised when ingesting any herb, no matter how safe it may seem. It is important to follow proper instruction and take the correct dosages. Teas are the more simple of the two, amounts will vary but generally steep the herb in a cup of boiling/hot water. You can add milk, sugar, or honey for taste. Good herbal teas include lavender, chamomile, skullcap (caution), mugwort (caution), hops, and mullein.

Tinctures are usually made from a very high proof alcohol infused with various herbs. These are usually taken in smaller doses either alone or in a glass of water. You can make your own tinctures but if you don’t have access to the ingredients, you can purchase tinctures at herbalist shops and health food stores. Popular herbs for sleep tinctures include valerian root, hops, passionflower, skullcap, chamomile, lavender, catnip, and lemon balm.

Dream pillows

Dream pillows are a sort of catch-all for sleep magic. You can use them for any purpose regarding sleep. Dream pillows are traditionally made by sewing together two pieces of fabric and stuffed with herbs like lavender and mugwort. If possible, collect herbs for dream pillows during the waxing or full moon. Color is something that can be taken into consideration when crafting a dream pillow, use personal color correspondences. Crystals can also be added to dream pillows. You can also draw or stitch sigils into the pillow.

Protection/Warding Black Salt

Not to be confused with volcanic salt/Himalayan black salt/kala namak. Black salt has strong protective properties, especially when combined with other protective/uncrossing herbs (herbs meant to undo a curse or hex). It’s used to absorb negative energy, create wards, and undo curses. It’s also good for banishing and binding. Here’s my recipe: 

What you’ll need: 

Cleansing items, such as smoke, bells, spray, whichever you personally use. 

Sea Salt 

Charcoal Disk (or charcoal powder) 

Black Candle

Rosemary 

Garlic Powder

Chili Powder 

Crushed Red Pepper Flakes 

Paprika 

Black Pepper 

Black Candle 

Bowl 

Mortar & Pestle 

Black stones/crystals 

Any additional protective items you may have. (Here I gathered dried red peppers, dried chili peppers, lemon, sage, and ashed from a Litha bonfire.) These items are for You to draw some extra energy from, and won’t be directly added to the salt.

Frankincense and/or Dragon’s Blood incense. 

Instructions: 

First, cleanse your space using whatever best works for you. 

After cleansing, start your frankincense and/or dragon’s blood incense, this will be going for the duration of the spell. 

Light your black candle. 

Gather your supplies as seen in the picture. 

As always, make sure your intention is strong, and continuously draw from it. Return to your intent no matter how often your mind wanders (which it will, that’s ok). 

In a bowl, mix the salt with the herbs first. 

Remember your other protective items are there for you to use. If needed, refocus on their protective energies and draw from that. 

Use a mortar and pestle to crush the charcoal disk separately. This takes a lot of physical energy, and it is very messy. If you prefer to use charcoal powder, that’s ok, though charcoal disks will be cheaper. I like charcoal disks because I feel more energetically involved in/connected to the process. 

Mixing counterclockwise, mix the very finely crushed charcoal into the salt. Mix. Use as many charcoal disks needed to get to the level of darkness you want. 

Mind wandering? Remember your intent! Refocus! 

When you’re done, transfer the black salt into a jar and set the crystals around it in a circle. Let it continue to build and charge this way, until you feel it is ready. If you’re not sure, it can also be until the candle or incense goes out. 

Done! Sprinkle this around the parameter of your wards, such as along doorways and windows. It can also be used during unhexing/curse breaking spells, general protection spells, banishing, and binding. 

This is NOT FOR CONSUMPTION. 

Even if you used edible activated charcoal, know that 1. charcoal interacts with many medications by basically absorbing them and rendering them useless, including birth control, diabetes medications, cancer drugs, and more. and 2. I’m not sure this would taste great?
