Wiccan healing spells intended to improve physical health can support natural healing and give emotional and spiritual strength to the sufferer.
Choose between an absent healing spell and a spell to help to heal someone present. Before performing a healing spell for another, it's essential that the Wiccan practitioner obtains permission and maintains the other person's confidence. For an individual in need magical healing for the self, a spell for self-healing can be effective.
Tools and Materials for Wiccan Healing Spells
One must select magical tools using intuition and instincts during the selection process. Some tools for a Wiccan healing spell may include some of the following items.
The chalice is particularly useful in healing spells.
Colors of candles suitable for healing spells include blue, white and beeswax.
Healing incense mixes may include cinnamon, myrrh, rosemary, lavender and violet. These may bought ready-mixed, or created from the individual ingredients.
White quartz crystals can also be useful in spells for healing.
Apples have long been associated with healing, and may be used either as the whole fruit, or as apple juice or cider.
A Spell to Heal Someone Who is Present
Perform this healing spell alone with the person to be healed. Explain the steps of the spell in simple terms before commencing, emphasizing in particular the importance of positive thoughts and emotions wherever possible. Agree the desired healing outcomes.
Do not mention the gift of the quartz crystal until the end however; a gift should always be a surprise!
Meditate calmly together until fully relaxed and comfortable. Simply concentrating on the in-breath and out-breath together is very effective.
Place one blue and two white candles on the Wiccan altar in a triangle.
Place a white quartz crystal in the center of the triangle of candles.
Light the candles and burn a small amount of healing Wiccan Incense on a charcoal disc in a suitable container, and allow the smoke to infuse the air for a few minutes.
Meditate together, dwelling on the positive healing outcomes desired. Be optimistic, but not unrealistic.
Pour cider or apple juice into the chalice and raise it. Declare out loud the desired healing outcomes. Use words that come naturally, in the form of a toast if you wish!
Share the drink in a friendly, respectful atmosphere
Breathe meditatively together for a few minutes longer, then extinguish the candles using a candle snuffer if possible, and also extinguish the incense.
Give the quartz crystal as a gift, the sufferer may wish to carry it to reinforce the effect of the spell.
If possible invite the sufferer to relax for a while after performing the spell to optimize the healing effect.
An Absent Healing Spell
Sometimes it is not possible to be with a loved one who is in need of a healing spell. This spell invokes healing energy at a distance.
Mediate to calm the mind and gently feel warm, generous intentions towards the person you wish to heal.
Burn a single candle on the altar and place an apple before it.
Visualize the life force in and around the apple for some minutes.
Visualize the life force of the apple being transmitted via the flame of the candle to the person to be healed.
Meditate for a further few moments on the magical healing intentions, then extinguish the flame with a candle snuffer.
Bury or compost the apple, expressing gratitude to it and to the tree on which it grew.
With careful consideration, and the full consent of the person to benefit from the healing spell, the energy raised by the Wiccan healing spells can be of real benefit to the well being of the sufferer. Loving visualization of positive outcomes is especially important in all healing spells.
