How to Perform White Magic Water Spells

White magic is what Wiccans and other pagans refer to as "positive energy spells." White magic water spells generally focus on affecting emotions and feminine energy. Water is deeply feminine, relating to the tidal waters and the moon. Spells to cleanse and to forgive are associated with water and the washing away of bad feelings, experiences and situations. Blue is the color most associated with water, so performing white magic water spells requires water, salt, blue candles and a little bit of faith.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Water Salt Blue candles

Personal Cleansing

1. Perform a water spell for purification. Water purifies and washes away. A ritual cleansing in a sea salt bath can purify the body and cleanse the mind.

2. Perform the spell early in the morning, as the sun is rising; or, it can be performed at twilight as the sun is setting.

3. Draw a warm bath, spread the salts in it and carefully immerse your body in the water. The water should not be hot nor cold, but warm.

4. Wash your body in the warm salt water. Carefully wipe down the entire body. Visualize washing away stress, bad emotions and other dark thoughts that may cling to you.

5. Empty the bath and draw a new one for relaxing in. Don't relax in the first, as that allows you to rest in the negativity.

Forgiveness Spell

6. Choose a blue candle at least 7 inches in height. The blue should be a dark, rich color, not pale blue nor navy blue.

7. Tie a blue ribbon off at 1-inch marks on the candle. Measure off the inches carefully, a little more is okay, but not less.

8. Write the name of the person you wish to forgive on the candle. Use holy water (mixture of salt blessed water--see Resources) to mark each inch on the candle and whisper the name of the person you wish to forgive three times in each section. Holy water is made by boiling water to cleanse it and blessing it during a ritual, or purchasing previously blessed water from a priest or priestess (this refers to Wiccan holy water).

9. Burn candle 1 inch each day for seven days. Touch your left hand to the candle (drawing in the energy to forgive) and lay your right hand in a bowl of water (releasing negativity to be extinguished in the water). Murmur a prayer or chant of forgiveness.

10. Empty the bowl of water over the stub of the candle and bury it in the backyard at the end of the seventh day. You have released your negative energy towards the person and filled yourself with forgiveness if working to forgive.
