Stones, Spells, and Stress Busters

Here are the spells from my Nov 22, 2011 as promised.

Simple Stone Spells

Just as semiprecious and precious stones have been used for a wide variety of magical purposes, so too have plain, ordinary stones. Nothing in nature is without its magical uses.
Tonight I am going to chat about minor rituals utilizing any kind of stone you find in your backyard, on the beach or anywhere out in nature.
In these spells, use your powers of visualization and concentration to direct the energy through the stones. Here, the rocks are usually focal points or tools that add little power of their own. Some of them are amulets and talismans of a kind.
That’s not to say that a piece of granite made up of quartz, hornblende and various other minerals doesn’t contain its own powers, but such stones lack focused energy. Since this is the kind most needed in magic, it is more difficult to work with them than with amethyst and carnelian. Therefore, in the simple spells that follow, don’t worry about which stone to use. Take whatever is at hand.
PROTECTION, The Five Pebbles
Go to a moving brook or stream. While standing in the water and facing downstream, remove five small pebbles from the stream bed As you do this, visualize your need for protection.
As your hand closes over the pebbles, see them beaming out protective energies. Just as the pebbles are hard and have weathered for eons, so too will they strengthen your protective shield.
Now carry them at all times for protection. If you wish, place them in a small pouch or a fold of cloth, or incorporate them into some form of jewelry.
DIVINATION, Black and White:
Spend a few minutes gathering stones. Half should be dark and half of a lighter color.
Place them on the ground before you. Ask your question or keep it in mind. Close your eyes and jumble the stones around for a few seconds; then, with your left or receptive hand, remove one of the stones.
If you picked a dark stone, the answer is yes or the prospects favorable. If light, no.
LOVE, Stone Love Spell:
Go to a place that contains many water-worn stones. Look for a large, flat rock while visualizing yourself being involved with the perfect mate.
On this rock mark with red ink two intertwined hearts. As you do this, keep the visualization in mind.
When you are finished, bury the stone in the earth in an uncultivated place.
A STONE-ATTRACTION SPELL:
Take any stone. Hold it in your projective hand for several minutes while visualizing your need. Flood the stone with your need and with your emotional involvement with your need. Send power out from your body to the stone. Use your visualization to see it streaming into the rock.
Then throw the stone into running water. It is done.
A STONE-BANISHING SPELL:
To be rid of diseases, unhealthy habits, hurt feelings and any other disturbing manifestations of life, hold any stone in your projective hand and visualize the problem in detail.
Visualize the part of you that is to be banished as entering the stone. See the problem and its causes leaving you and infusing the stone.
When you can send no more energy into it, throw the stone onto a hot fire, throwing with it the causes and manifestations of your problem. Stand back “the stone may explode.
If you have no fire or don’t wish to have rocks exploding, throw the stone into the air or into water, thereby releasing the problem causing energy from your body.

It is done.

Now for a few favorites to help us all deal with the holiday cheer that we are about to face.
Get Your Point Across Spell
If you have been having trouble getting your point across, you may try this spell. Take one small piece of turquoise or turquoise jewelry and enchant the stone by saying: “Stone of sheer diplomacy, make my voice heard. The point that I must make today must not be disturbed. Remove the clouds, make clear the mark; as I will, so mote it be.” Carry or wear the stone. This spell works especially well in difficult business meetings.
Folk Magic for a Happy Home
Mix some mint, a clove, some grated lemon peel and a bay leaf in a china bowl. Place the mixture on a white cotton handkerchief and tie up the four ends with green ribbon. Hang this near your front door while saying,

This charm that has been made by me,
it now protects my family.
We live in health and prosperity.
By the power of my spell, so it must be
Becoming Calmed and Centered Spell
Equipment
A very smooth, rounded stone, smaller than your fist
some soothing music

Sit while holding the stone and listening to the music in a quiet room at home, or in the outdoors if the weather is nice. Breathe deeply and rhythmically. Begin inhaling through your mouth, then exhaling through your nostrils with a long, steady humming note. With each exhalation, make the note smoother and draw it out longer. Breathe your tension and anxiety into the stone. When you feel calm and centered, put the stone on the ground, open the circle and walk away. The stone will dissipate the tension into the Earth, to be transmuted; if you wish, you can retrieve the stone in a day or two for later use.
Spell to Stop Arguments

To stop a pointless argument, take a picture of the one you are fighting with and place a clear piece of tape over his or her mouth. Draw a heart upon it. Kiss it, and place it where you can see it as you clearly say:
You may best me with your words,
But you are bested by my kiss.
No more will I hear angry words;
From these lips, love will persist!
Blow a kiss to it now and then as you walk by. Then place it in your dresser or another quiet place, and reinstate the spell when needed. This also works on yourself.

If all else fails…
Unwanted Visitor Spell

To get rid of unwanted visitors you should place a broom by the front door. If you can, make a small sweeping motion as place the broom, and if you can do this without being noticed, so much the better. This will speed such people on their way and give you some peace of mind.
Making Gemstone Water

Making gemstone water is actually very simple, you will need the following ‘ingredients’ for this: a glass vessel, a gemstone, bottled spring water or boiled (and cooled) tapwater, a windowsill.
Before you start making gemstone water you will have to make the choice whether you wish to use the energies of the sun or the energies of the moon. The sun will charge your gemstone water with soothing, soft and warm energies while the various moon phases will give a different result.
The Moon phases:
Waxing Moon: The energies of the waxing moon are suited for new projects, new relations and to plant new ’seeds’.
Full Moon: The Full Moon is the symbol of positive magick, blessing, creativity, healing and reinforcement.
Waning Moon: The energies of the waning moon are connected to get rid of bad habits, negative thoughts and to build down things, to purge yourself from all negativity from the outside world, but also from within yourself.
New Moon: The New Moon is the time of death, a time to stop and look inside yourself and to realize that you can always start again, no matter what happened to you. It is the time to halt an illness or a pattern of thoughts and give it a positive spin.

It is therefore important to ask yourself for which purpose you wish to use the gemstone water before you start.

Put the stone in the glass vessel and fill it up to 3/4 with spring water or the cooled down tapwater. Put the vessel with the stone in it on your windowsill for 12 hours and leave it to ‘charge’ there without interruption. If you have decided to make use of the energies of the sun, you should take into account that certain stones may discolour in direct sunlight.

You can enhance your immune system by drinking a few glasses of gemstone water every day, but you may also use it to wash your face and/or hands, especially for skin disorders it is advisable to use Aventurine water to wash yourself. Next to that it is also possible to give your plants this water, the stones that are highly suited for this are Jade and Moss Agate.

Triple Goddess Herbal Warding Spell

 

 

 

 

Triple Goddess Herbal Warding Spell

 

Work this spell on the full moon.If you can’t wait that long,work it on a Tuesday,

 

to invoke courage and defense or a Saturday for protection and banishing.

 

Once you have the bag filled,you will be placing or hanging the sachet by the

 

main entrance to your home to prevent bad luck or negativity from entering.

 

This type of magick is referred as warding.

 

Warding means that you are setting in place a sort of magickal alarm system

 

that will alert you to anyone or anything that tries to enter uninvited into

 

your home.

 

 

You will need the following supplies:

 

A few tablespoons of dill,for protection and to denote a magickal safe house

 

A few leaves of St.John’s wort,for protection against enchantment

 

A three-leaf clover,for good luck and because it is a Triple-Goddess symbol

 

A tablespoon of dried vervain,to make the spell “go”

 

A 6-inch square of red fabric

 

12 inches each of red,white and black ribbons

 

Combine the four herbal ingredients and place in the center of the fabric.

 

Gather up the sides and tie the bundle closed with the red,white and black ribbons

 

for protection and to invoke the Triple Goddess.If you really want to personalize

 

this spell,you could draw with a black marker the Triple Goddess symbol onto

 

the fabric.This will help link the herb magick back to the Triple Goddess and will

 

empower the herbs even more.

 

 

One knot each for the Maiden, Mother, and Crone,

 

Bless this protective charm that I’ve made on my own.

 

Then hang the herb-filled bag inside your home,next to the main entrance.

 

 

Once it’s in place, set up the ward with this verse:

 

St.John’s wort, vervain, clover, and dill,

 

Ward well my home, protect from ill will.

 

Make this house a secure magickal place,

 

Defend and protect us through time and space.

 

Visualize a bright, protective light surrounding your doorway.

 

Tap the bag of herbs three times to activate the spell.

 

You may refresh this warding spell every six months.

So what did this mean to have such a day come up for all of us? I knew that was the perfect day to wish for new beginnings. I sent out my wish as I focused on the almost full moon and wished hard. So many things are already starting to brew. I am not going to life the cover off to peek just yet but I do promise to keep you all posted.

I do see the gypsy wheel for me again coming soon which means movement and that excites me. I love new places, new things, new ideas, and just the learning that comes from it all.
