The Dual Ritual is a transformative technique designed to help you banish unwanted energies and invite positivity into your life. The concept behind the ritual is to clear out what no longer serves you, creating a blank slate that you can fill with your intentions and aspirations. It’s a flexible and beginner-friendly spell that anyone can perform, regardless of your spiritual path or faith. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to use it to manifest your desires.
Preparing Your Space and Focus Point
Quiet Space: Find a quiet space where you can concentrate without distractions. You will need a tranquil environment to fully immerse yourself in this ritual. A serene location helps you better connect with your focus object and the magickal realm you intend to channel.
Focus Point: Next, choose a unique point of focus. This could be any object that resonates with you and aligns with the energy you’re trying to invoke. If you’re a witch, you might favor a candle flame or some dried herbs. Religious folks might prefer a sacred icon, while those in the New Age movement could benefit from using a crystal. The idea is to pick an object that opens a portal to a higher power or dimension, allowing your voice and thoughts to be amplified and heard.
Cleansing Your Focus Object: Before using your focus point, you may want to cleanse it of any lingering negative energies. Visualize the object covered with grimy energy, then breathe deeply and imagine your breath infused with purifying power. Exhale on your focus object, seeing the grimy energy dissipate. Repeat once or three times until you feel it’s thoroughly cleansed. If this doesn’t work and the energy remains, let the object sit in salt for three days.
Banishing the Unwanted
Connecting with Your Realm: Once the focus object is purified, hold it in your hands or gaze at it with intensity. Relax your body, ground your thoughts, and visualize yourself becoming more attuned to the spiritual realm. Feel the powerful energy of that place infusing you, filling you with warmth, clarity, and strength. Allow this sensation to fill you completely and affirm your intention: “I embrace my power to shape reality.”
Identifying What to Banish:
Picture the negative energy you wish to remove. Give it a tangible form that aligns with how it feels in your life. Is it a mist that clouds your thoughts, a ball of chaos that disrupts your peace, or a weight that keeps you from rising? Picture this energy being removed through a visualization that resonates with you:
- Envision flames reducing the unwanted energy to a pile of ash that the wind carries away.
- Imagine bubbles carrying the energy far into the distance.
- See the dark energy sinking to the depths of the ocean, encased in lead.
Speak aloud, “I cast you out, [name of energy]. You are exiled from my life,” or a variation that feels right to you. Repeat this until you feel the energy has been effectively banished.
Overcoming Resistance: If you can’t banish the energy or it seems invulnerable, it might be too deeply rooted. Start by banishing something smaller and more manageable to build up your confidence and power.
Summoning the Desired
Calling in Opposite Energies: Once you’ve cleared the negative energy, it’s time to fill that void with positive energy. Visualize this benevolent energy appearing in your life:
- As a seed that sprouts and flourishes into what you desire.
- Delivered to your feet by a strong wind or rain.
- Emerging from a treasure chest or sacred vessel.
Picture the energy growing until it fills your entire life.
Overcoming Blockages: If you can’t summon the energy or it remains small, try visualizing something simpler. Perhaps your current focus is too detailed or blocked by other influences.
Sealing the Ritual: Once you’ve summoned the positive energy and see it filling your life, perform a sealing gesture. This could be saying a word like “so mote it be,” clapping your hands, or making a sign with your body. Anything that feels appropriate for sealing your intentions.
Expressing Gratitude and Grounding
After completing the spell, thank your higher powers or leave an offering to show your appreciation. Cover your focus object and store it away. Ground yourself by eating, moving around, or chatting with friends to bring yourself back to the present.
Repeat this ritual daily until you notice the changes you seek in your life. For small changes, results might appear in a week. Larger shifts may naturally take more time.
