Here’s a cozy, mini Samhain spell to honor the thinning veil and invite ancestral wisdom:
Purpose: To connect with ancestral guidance and release what no longer serves.
You’ll need:
- A black candle (for protection and mystery)
- A white candle (for clarity and spirit connection)
- A small bowl of water
- A sprig of rosemary or mugwort
- A slip of paper and pen
Steps:
-
Create sacred space. Light both candles and place the bowl of water between them. Hold the herb in your hands and breathe deeply.
-
Write what you wish to release on the paper—grief, fear, old patterns.
-
Dip the herb in water
and gently sprinkle it over the paper, saying: “By flame and flow, by leaf and light,
I release this weight into the night.
Ancestors near, guide me true—
I walk with strength into what’s new.”
-
Burn or bury the paper safely, letting the act seal your intention.
-
Close with gratitude. Blow out the candles and thank your guides.
