Gentle Healing Spell

You Need:

• A white candle – white represents cleansing and purity and will help bring you peace
• A  green candle – green is used for prosperity, abundance and healing, particularly physical healing. 
• A blue candle – blue represents protection, serenity and good fortune. It works particularly well for healing when combined with a purple candle. 
• A purple candle – this will help you access your spiritual power, which will help aid your healing spell. Purple is a powerhouse candle and will help make a powerful healing spell. 
• A cleansed clear quartz or amethyst. You can choose which you prefer here because both stones are seen as master healers. If you’re not sure how to cleanse your crystals, check out this post we wrote about how to cleanse your crystals. 
• A photo of the person you want to perform the healing spell for. If you don’t have a photo, write their name onto a piece of paper instead. I prefer not to do this spell for groups of people and try to focus on just one person instead, trying to cast it for more than one tends to dilute the power of the spell. 
• Cinnamon oil
• Eucalyptus oil
• Mint oil – All three of these oils provide powerful healing energies and cinnamon will boost the magickal power of your spell. If you want to know more about these particular plants, check out our Botanical Witchepidia. 
• A lighter or matches
• A large fire-proof plate or vessel

1. Gather all your ingredients together and find yourself a quiet spot to work in.
2. Sit down comfortably with your ingredients in front of you.
3. Place your photo (or written name) in the centre of your fire-proof plate.
4. Take your crystal in both hands and briefly warm it. While doing this, imagine that you’re imparting healing, loving energy into the crystal. 
5. Gently place the crystal on top of the photo or name.
6. Anoint each of your candles with a drop of each oil.
7. Take the candles and place them evenly around the photo and crystal. They should form a protective circle around the photo (it’s hard to form a circle with 4 things but you get the drift). I like to melt the wax on the bottom on my candle a little and then stick it to the fire-proof plate so it stays upright. 
8. Light each candle
9. Look into the candle flames and imagine them forming a fiery, protective circle around your loved one to keep them safe and strong. Imagine the flames transforming all of the negative energy in their body into glowing, pure white, healing light. 
10. Keeping this thought in mind, close your eyes and imagine this healing light flowing through the crystal into your loved one. Think about them being healthy and vital, filled with energy and glowing with wellness. Imagine their smiling face looking at you with love and kindness and think about how happy you are that they are feeling good and that their body is capable and strong. Of course, if you are completing this spell for yourself, imagine how good you feel in your own body and think about your limbs being supple, strong and endlessly capable. Imagine light filling every part of your or their bodies, and flushing out anything bad in their system. Imagine their lungs flooded with healing light, their hearts lit with gentle healing energy and their minds fast and alert. 
11. If there is a specific type of healing that you are aiming for here, now is the time to direct that healing energy to that particular ailment. Let’s say you want to heal a migraine, imagine flooding your head with this healing light and it forcing all signs of the migraine out of your body. The same thing if you are aiming to heal back-pain or a flu. Imagine the light strongly and decisively forcing pain and illness out and being replaced by clean, healthy white light. The stronger and longer you can focus, the more likely your spell is to work. 
12. When you feel you’ve sent as much healing energy as you can, slowly open your eyes and come back to yourself. Say:

“With this spell, I send healing light, energy and protection to (say name here). Send this magical energy and vitality through their/my body and let it cleanse them of their ailments. So Mote it Be”.

13. Let your candles burn to nothing if you can, or snuff them out and bury any remnants outside or dispose of them away from your home.
14. Repeat this spell as often as you want, for as many people as you want to heal.
