Protection From Self Harm
Some people might find this useful, so why not share it.
Last semester, things were really rough for me mental-health wise, I was in danger of hurting myself really badly. So, I made this to help me out a bit.
Items Needed
pink candle
carving tool or paint
water
salt
Preparation
I carved different runes and sigils into the candle for what I wanted (self-love, recovery, strength, ect). Although this is technically preparation, I found that taking the time to do this mindfully was an added benefit. I found that putting this work in is a good way to charge your candle. If you use paint, paint on the parts of the candle that won’t be melted, otherwise it will interfere with your flame (and probably be toxic). Where this is on your candle will very. To be safe, don’t paint near the top.
Mix your salt into your water.
Spell
Start the spell however you normally would. Light the candle and connect to the energy you charged it with. Build up the energy of self-love, recovery, and strength.
When it is the right time, dip your fingers into the salt water and rub it gently on whatever part of your body is in danger. Mine when on my forearms and wrists, but feel free to rub the water on your legs, thighs, stomach, whatever you need. Keep adding water to your hands as needed. As you rub, speak from the heart about protecting your body. Genuinely talk to your skin, telling it that this will make it safer.
Finish the spell however you usually do according to your tradition.
This is not meant to substitute medical advice or treatment. This is something supplemental that can help people who are on their way to recovery or begin recovering. If you are in danger of hurting yourself and are not receiving any sort of treatment, feel free to use this spell, but please, PLEASE also get professional help. We don’t want to lose you.
