Friendships are treasures that light up our lives, but like all relationships, they can experience challenges and misunderstandings. It’s not uncommon to have a falling out with someone close, leaving a void that both parties feel deeply. If you find yourself in such a situation, a little bit of magick might just be the solution to mend those frayed edges and breathe new life into your companionship.
Preparing for the Ritual
Before you begin, it’s essential to create a serene and receptive atmosphere. This involves clearing your mind and setting a positive intention. Here are a few suggestions to help you prepare:
- Sip Some Herbal Tea: Choose calming herbs like chamomile or lavender that help soothe the mind and spirit.
- Take a Relaxing Bath: Add some Epsom salts or a few drops of essential oils to help you relax and cleanse your aura.
- Meditate: Spend a few minutes in meditation to ground yourself and focus your intentions on healing and forgiveness.
If you find your emotions are still tumultuous and raw, consider performing a purification spell first to settle your heart and mind.
What You’ll Need for the Spell
- Candle: Opt for an indigo candle to enhance mental clarity and forgiveness, or a green candle to soothe the heart and promote emotional healing. If these aren’t available, any candle color will suffice as it’s your intention that truly matters.
- Photograph or Sacred Object: A picture of your friend or an item they’ve given you that holds sentimental value.
- Sage Incense: While optional, burning sage can help clear negative energies and purify your intentions (use it only if you have it readily available).
- A Small Box: This will be used to hold your intentions and symbolize the restoration of your friendship.
Conducting the Spell
Step 1: Light the Candle
Begin by lighting your candle, setting a calm and focused atmosphere. The flame symbolizes the rekindling of your friendship.
Step 2: Expressing and Releasing Negativity
- Cut thin strips of paper.
- On each strip, write down feelings or incidents that hurt you or caused anger in your relationship.
- One by one, burn these strips in a fire-safe container. As you watch the paper burn, visualize letting go of these negative emotions. Allow yourself time to fully process each feeling; it’s okay to take this slowly.
Step 3: Affirming Positive Memories and Intentions
- On new strips of paper, write down what you cherish about your friendship. Include specific traits that make your friend special, memorable experiences, and reasons you are grateful for their presence in your life.
- Hold the sacred object or photo and read these positive affirmations aloud. Each time you finish reading a strip, fold it thoughtfully and place it inside your box.
Step 4: Seal the Spell
- If using sage incense, light it now and carefully pass the box through the smoke. This act purifies your intentions and strengthens your resolve.
- As you hold the box, recite a new chant with clear intention:”From heart to heart, let healing start, Mend the rifts that kept us apart.”
- Carefully extinguish the candle. Place the box in a special place where it won’t be disturbed.
Completing the Healing Process
After performing the spell, give yourself some time to absorb the work you’ve done. When you feel ready, reaching out to your friend can be a powerful next step. Whether it’s a message, a call, or a meeting, communicate openly and honestly. Remember, while magick can aid in healing, the human effort to reconcile and understand each other’s perspectives is just as crucial.
Performing this spell is a beautiful way to affirm your willingness to forgive and rebuild. It’s a magickal way to enhance your personal growth and emotional wellbeing. This process not only helps in healing the friendship but also contributes to your own spiritual journey, encouraging a heart-centered approach to resolving conflicts.
