Of course, @Janae_Rochele!
Apologies if it wasn’t clear in my post above, but I would definitely suggest banishing the evil entity before moving into healing work. It works the same way as any injury- for example, take a splinter: you would never dress and begin the healing process for a wound with the piece of wood still inside. The bad/evil/hurting presence that is causing harm should be removed first, and only then can one begin their journey of healing
There are many methods for healing in magick- what you choose will likely depend on your areas of magickal speciality and what you think best suits the person in need. I love to use healing herbs - either medicinally as teas, tinctures, or salves or magically as dried flower bundles, sachets, and pouches Herbs such as calendula, melissa/lemon balm, and rosemary all have healing properties. But even if they have healing properties, I would suggest avoiding any plants that potentially attracts shadows/spirits.
Herbs are just my personal favorite though- others may focus on healing crystals (brief into to Crystal Healing here) , spiritual baths for healing (list of spiritual baths here), practices such as reiki , or spellwork that focuses on healing- such as this healing spell
Every situation is unique and will call for spellwork/methods selected at the best judgement of the caster, but in a hypothetical situation:
-
Be sought out by someone who can’t shake an evil presence- be it a ghost, spirit, bad energy, poor fortune, etc
-
Select a Banishing Spell best suited to the entity in question and gather the necessary ingredients for the spell
-
Cast the spell and banish the entity, ideally during a Waning Moon
-
Immediately or soon after, cast a Protection Spell (or enchant a Protective Talisman/Amulet/Charm) for the person in need- this will protect them from the entity returning, or being bothered by a new one
-
After a period of rest, begin the healing process with your healing method(s) of choice
Again, every situation is unique and every witch will have their personal favorite spells and techniques to use. So please just consider this to be a very general outline. That being said, I hope it can be helpful for you!
Blessed be!
