Ingredients:
- A black candle (for absorbing negative energy)
- A white candle (for protection and purity)
- Salt (for purification)
- A small mirror (to reflect energy back to the source)
- Sage or palo santo (for cleansing)
- A bowl of water (for grounding)
- Protective talisman or amulet (optional)
Steps:
- Prepare the Space: Begin by setting up your space. Light the sage or palo santo and cleanse your environment, focusing on removing any lingering negative energies. Wave the smoke around yourself and your ritual items to purify them.
- Set Your Intentions: Place the black and white candles in front of you, with the mirror positioned between them. Take a moment to clear your mind and set a strong intention to return any harmful energy back to its source.
- Create a Protective Circle: Sprinkle salt around you in a circle, symbolizing a protective boundary. Visualize a bright, impenetrable shield forming around you, repelling any negative energy.
- Light the Candles:
- First, light the black candle, and say:
“I call upon the power of darkness to absorb all negativity cast my way. May it be contained within this flame and harm me no more.”
- Next, light the white candle, and say:
“I summon the power of light to protect and purify, shielding me from all harm and bringing peace to my spirit.”
- Focus on the Mirror: Hold the mirror in your hands or place it upright between the candles, facing outward (away from you). Visualize the mirror acting as a shield, reflecting all negative energy back to its origin.
Say:
“With this mirror, I reflect all malice and ill will back to where it was sent. May it return to its source and disturb me no more.”
- Water Element (for Grounding): Dip your fingers in the bowl of water and sprinkle a few drops over yourself and the mirror. This is meant to ground the ritual and provide you with additional protection.
- Close the Ritual: Once you feel the energy settle, thank any protective forces you may have called upon. Extinguish the black candle first to symbolize ending the negative energy, then the white candle for peace and closure.
- Carry the Talisman: If you have a protective amulet or talisman, keep it with you for the next few days as a symbol of continued protection.
Closing:
Dispose of the water and salt outside, away from your home, as it has absorbed negative energy. Keep the mirror in a safe place, as it is now a powerful symbol of protection.
This counter-curse ritual is designed to block and return negative energy without causing harm, balancing protection with peaceful closure.
