It's a difficult thing letting go. It's though to say goodbye. But the thing we don't always realize, when we let go on something, it opens up a little space to grow. It shows us who we are, what we are capable of. We find out what really matters, and who we really were all along.
Follow your passion — and if you don’t know what it is, realize that one reason for your existence on earth is to find it.

full moon ritual // pisces moon
So tonight is a full moon, and more specifically it is the Pisces moon! So as this is a special one for me (a Pisces), I thought I would share with you a really good ritual to do at a full moon, and some of the other things I’m doing over this highly energized time period.
This ritual is a banishing ritual, this is great for this time of year as a lot of people may be going to school again soon, starting a new job, and with the end of Summer and Autumn coming around, it’s a time for change.
What you will need:
- A bag of herbs that are good for banishing (I’m using rosemary, garlic, pepper and sage as they are all easy to come across and have amazing powers).
- A piece of paper and a pen.
- A match or lighter.
- Salt (sea or table salt can be used)
- Water (this can be tap water, and you’ll see why).
- A cup or chalice.
- A cauldron (or a fireproof dish if you don’t have one).
- Your wand for casting a cirlce (again, if you have one, I personally don’t and I use my finger).
- Any banishing crystals you may have (I’m using smoky quartz and obsidian).
- Candles (white and black)
Before the ritual begins, you’re going to want to make sure that you’re dressed suitably for the occasion and that you’re in comfortable clothes. Usually, I get into a comfy set of pjs and put my slippers on, as I like to perform my rituals outside. I always like to bring a drink with me, usually I take some herbal tea with me, but as I’m living in Spain at the moment (opposed to the UK), I’ll be drinking lemon juice. I also like to take with me a pillow to sit down on, as sometimes the ground can make your bottom go numb! Just remember to make sure you’re nice, relaxed and comfortable.
In addition to this I like to light black and white candles for this ritual, as black is great for banishing, and white is great for bringing new positive energies in.
The ritual:
I like to start off by picking the area in which I am doing my ritual in, and casting my circle. I have a previous post about this which you can read here: (https://crystalwitch-x.tumblr.com/post/176838254369/casting-a-circle)
Usually I have my pillow placed in the middle of my circle and all of the things I need with me in front. Firstly, as this focuses on banishing out negative energies I like to take my piece of paper, and write down any negative thoughts or things that have happened to me on them. I like to write them on small bits of ripped paper and crumple them up and put them inside the cauldron. I also like to make sure that when I am doing this, I have my crystals around me as this starts off their banishing journey with me. I like to say out loud ‘I call to thee watching over me, to banish these thoughts from my mind’.
Next I take my pre-made mixture of banishing herbs, and mix them together with the salt. Salt has really good cleansing properties so really gives this ritual a boost. Then pinch some and pour it over the top of the pieces of paper, whilst saying ‘With these herbs, I cleanse the negative energies and forbid them to return’.
Next is the dangerous bit, so just make sure you’re being careful. It’s time to set the contents on fire. I like to light a match and chuck in it, but sometimes when I can’t find on I light a piece of paper and chuck it in, as this avoids burning your hands. Whilst doing this, I like to say ‘Using the element of fire, I remove your negative energy from my life’.
I like to watch the herbs start to burn and this is where your crystals and water come to play. I like to cleans them fully by passing them through these smokes, making sure that they feel the negative energies being pulled up and away. And finally, I like to say ‘Now, with the power of our great full moon, I charge thee with the most powerful positive energies this world has to offer’.
Then, I close my circle and (when it’s safe) move my cauldron away. I like to leave my water and crystals out over night to get a full charge from the moon, and then bring them back to my altar in the morning. And you now have some amazing crystals and water to use in your spellwork that needs to say ‘cya’ to those bad vibes!
I hope you guys enjoyed this, as I said, this is just my way of doing things, and it is important to change things if you feel it doesn't work for you! There is no fixed path, follow your own, and learn who you are!
Blessed be, this full moon!

✨Literally woke up feeling this to SEEING THIS. So let's get it done. 2017 is the year of SELFLESS SELF IMPROVEMENT. Not to be confused with SELFISH DISREGARD...not that I care if anyone gets it. I'm my best relationship or there are no relationships at all, I am my best self or I am not. My expectations are what most would say where my failures lie but they KEEP RAISING BECAUSE THERE IS NO GLASS CEILING✨. #practicemakespurpose #loveyourself #stayinyourlane #followyourpath #melanin #blackgirlmagic #mondaymotivation #expectations
