- 1 pinch White Salt Table Salt is Fine
Cast Your Spell with Intention
- Prepare Your Space (20 seconds) Sit or stand comfortably. Place your candle in front of you and sprinkle the salt around it in a small circle, like a mini barrier. Take one deep breath and say: "I claim my space as sacred and bright, a circle of safety, of peace, and of light."
- Light the Candle (20 seconds) As you light the candle, imagine a soft white light expanding around you. Say: "With flame and with salt, I seal my space, let only what's kind remain in this place."
- Cast the Circle (40 seconds) Close your eyes and visualize a glowing sphere of light forming around your body, above your head, below your feet, and all around you. Picture it growing stronger with each breath. Say three times, with a little more strength each time: "I am protected, I am safe, I am shielded by light in my sacred space."
- Close the Spell (40 seconds) When you're ready, blow out the candle and say: "This circle remains, wherever I go, I carry the peace that I've come to know. So mote it be." Flush the salt down the toilet to send any absorbed negative energy completely away.
