Here’s a spell to help release and recover from the stress and negativity of politically charged energy, bringing peace and clarity into your space and mind. This spell focuses on grounding, letting go, and reclaiming your own energy.
Spell for Releasing Politically Charged Energy
Tools:
- A black candle (for absorbing negativity)
- A white candle (for peace and protection)
- A bowl of salt water (for purification)
- Fresh rosemary or sage (for cleansing)
- Clear quartz or amethyst crystal (for clarity and calm)
- A small bowl or sachet for ashes (optional)
Timing:
Best performed during the waning moon phase, but any time you feel overwhelmed works well.
Steps:
-
Preparation: Sit quietly in a space where you feel calm. Place the black candle on your left and the white candle on your right. In front of you, place the salt water bowl, the rosemary or sage, and the crystal.
-
Grounding: Take three deep breaths, feeling yourself relax. Envision any heavy or dense energy from political conversations, news, or social media interactions draining away from your body into the earth.
Light the Candles:
-
Light the black candle and say: “I release what does not serve, all tensions and negativity I now observe. Absorbed by this flame, may they be transformed.”
-
Light the white candle and say: “With peace and clarity, I am reborn. In the light of this flame, I am now restored.”
-
Cleanse with the Salt Water: Dip your fingers into the salt water and sprinkle a few drops around you, or on your forehead if it feels right, saying: “This water purifies and clears my mind. No energies shall linger or bind.”
-
Smudge with Rosemary or Sage: Light the rosemary or sage, letting the smoke surround you. As the smoke rises, envision any remaining energy that does not serve you leaving with it. Say: “As this smoke rises and fades, so does the weight of all opinions and blades.”
-
Hold the Crystal: Hold the crystal in your hands, focusing on its energy. Visualize clarity and calm entering your mind, body, and spirit, replacing any negativity. Say: “With this stone, my energy is my own. I return to my center, calm and whole.”
-
Close the Spell: When you feel lighter, snuff out the candles. Dispose of the salt water in the earth if possible (pour it outside) and carry the crystal with you for protection and grounding over the coming days.
-
Optional Release of Ashes: If you used rosemary or sage, place the ashes in a small bowl or sachet to remind you of the release. Keep it on your altar for a few days as a symbol of your renewed boundaries, then scatter the ashes outside, saying: “Released to the earth, no longer in me. I am free.”
Let this spell serve as a release and a reminder of your own peace. Repeat as needed to maintain balance in challenging times. Blessed be!
