this spell uses the elements of fire and water to banish and cleanse you of any anger that may be hurting you and transform it into emotional clarity and personal power. this spell is wonderful for this summer’s retrograde mars and is best performed under a dark or waning moon!
you’ll need:
✨ black (banishing) or white (cleansing and rebirth) candle
✨paper
✨pen
✨black pepper
✨a bowl of water
✨a bowl for burning
✨any other crystals or herbs you want to use (ex. clear quartz, obsidian or sage)
method:
1. begin by taking a moment to ground yourself and light your candle.
2. turn to the south and speak to the element of fire for a moment. ask for it’s aid in turning your anger to ashes, and that from those ashes may rise the ability to clearly voice your emotions and to stand up for yourself when you are hurt.Â
2. turn to the west and do the same with water, asking to be cleansed and made new. think about how you respond to your emotions internally and the steps you take to take care of yourself when you feel a storm inside.
3. on a piece of paper, write down the angers you’re holding inside. when you’re ready, burn the paper and combine the ash with the black pepper.Â
4. sitting upright and closing your eyes, meditate until you feel a sense of calm wash over you. you may choose to repeat a short mantra such as “peace and power” or visualize your anger dissolving.Â
5. when you are ready, dispose of the black pepper and ash mixture however you see fit (i.e. flushing down the toilet, releasing into the air, etc.)Â
6. to close out the spell, cleanse your ritual space and any tools used as they may be holding the negative energies you released from within.Â
