This spell is actually inspired by something my tarot cards told me, to let go of the pain and hurt and let it be swept away. This is a powder you’ll scatter into the winds.
Ingredients:
Wormwood – for all of the bitterness and pain you’ve been holding in Salt/salt water – to symbolize tears and sadness Rosemary – to let go of the memories that hold you back Ashes – to symbolize the things around you that have been painful and unsuccessful, the ways you’ve been burned Rue (optional) – for regret (I don’t have any rue on hand right now, but it would be a fantastic addition to the spell)
Directions:
Blend your ingredients together in a small bowl. You don’t need to grind them up if you don’t want to. Mix them, and while you do, think about all of the sadness and pain you’re holding in. Pour out all of your emotions of what’s pent up and hurting. Think of the past hurts and wounds. Pour that sadness into this powder.
Stand outside. (Crossroads would be great for this, but not necessary.) Take your mixture and hold it in front of you. Call forth the elements as you see fit. If you work with spirits/deities, now would be the time to call on them to aid you in this spell. Take a handful of powder and toss it into the wind at one of the four cardinal directions.
If you like to speak during your rituals (I personally don’t, so feel free to skip this), say something along the lines of
To the North I toss my regrets To the South I toss my sorrows To the East I toss my sadness To the West I toss my pain
May the winds carry them away from me So shall it be.
As you toss your mixture into each direction, picture the wind blowing it away and carrying your sorrows and struggles far away from you. Take a deep breath, and let it all go.
Thank the directions and elements for their assistance and end the spell as you see fit. Then go do something to cleanse and love yourself as a way to welcome in hope and love in place of sorrow and regret. (Write out a list of goals, do a self love spell, etc. Lots of options here!) Take a deep breath, your problems have been blown into the wind!
According to the doctor’s paperwork I am officially diagnosed with moderate anxiety disorder. It oddly feels like validation for all the years I thought I had it, but was never sure bc if you aren’t diagnosed do you really have it?
Why did it take me getting far too close to stroke level stats (at least twice) for this to happen? At least I know now… and that’s half the battle, as they say.
Honesty time: I was admitted to the hospital yesterday afternoon and released this morning nearly a full 24 hours later.
When I went to the Dr to check up on my blood pressure it was very high, as was my heart rate even though I’m being mediated for the blood pressure problem. I went to the ER and was given medications to bring them down and kept for observation.
No underlying cardiac problems were found to cause this and the Dr firmly believes I may have a touch of Rapid Heart Rate and terrible anxiety which I’ll need to discuss treatment with my regular Dr.
If this is how bad my anxiety has gotten I HAVE to look into options to control it. I’m home now and doing fine, but this could have been a much different day for me. I’m not okay with is. 😔
