Jacob Tierney, we need to have a little talk about how you gave Scott and Kip sunlight and GAVE SHANE AND ILYA MOONLIGHT.

The Moonlight Sonata? My Moon My Man?? Just as shining and beautiful but not in the public eye, quieter and softer and more hidden, and also visible BECAUSE OF THE SUN. I'm freaking out about this ever since my friend pointed it out and you all need to be freaking out about it with me.

You don't need to get fancy expensive sound bowls or musical instruments for sound cleansing/grounding/centering.

You can simply play music that you love. From phones, speakers, CDs, records, TV, whichever you have available to you.

Music moves through the air no matter its source. Sound waves exist no matter what or who is making them.

simple healing-song methods 🌀🎶

i've been singing since before i could talk apparently, and i think that is why musical magic has been my longest-held practice—i was doing it before i really identified as a witch, when i was a child. i'm going to describe some simple healing-song methods i've used throughout my life—all of these are solitary practices, require no knowledge of instruments, and you do not need to be a good singer at all to utilize these techniques for magical means.

play a plain chord song (or use a piano, or another instrument) and hum along to the note. hum up and down, and individually focus your attention to the sensations in your face, mouth, throat, chest, shoulders, arms, then stomach. if you are familiar, try to harmonize along to the chord. this is a great meditative start for any other musical rituals.

choose songs pertinent to specific spells, and sing them to enchant these workings. when i do this, i try to incorporate a rhythmic body component (dancing, clapping or snapping, rocking back and forth, etc.), as well as starting with some kind of simple meditations or trance-entering practice. when singing, try to lean heavily into the lyrics and song, emotionally, and sing it from the heart and not to sound perfect.

as an act of ancestor veneration, when songs that deceased loved ones enjoyed come on the radio (and i'm alone), i will allow these spirits to temporarily and partially take over my throat and mouth to sing the song how they used to. it is a noticeably different sound than i typically make, and sometimes involves a lot of voice cracking if the song is far out of my range. at the end of the song i thank the ancestor for watching over me, and bid them farewell for now.

when i was younger, i taught myself to enter what is now my spirit-world work space, but at the time was more akin to sherlock's mind palace. in here i would imagine myself burning and saving cds with individual songs that i wanted to remember, then i'd put them on the shelf, press them, and sing while listening to the whole song in my mind. i still utilize a similar method for much more then songs, but when it is songs i choose ones pertinent to my life or magical goals, as a method of manifestation through imparting the song messages onto my mind.

i will sing songs as simple spells on their own sometimes. some songs out there are entirely a spell in their own right, and don't need an accompanying ritual to have an effect after magically singing it. songs can be to curse, to bless, to heal, to ward, for anything that you find a song about really.

in healing-song applications specifically, i sing songs which are pertinent to my life or magical goals aloud, while doing basic visualizations of energy flowing from my throat and mouth, around my head and body, back into my crown and root energy centers. if doing it for another person, it's a similar application except the visualization of energy goes from your throat and mouth around to the other persons crown and root energy centers.

ive found music to be a good gateway for me to practice mindfulness, especially coloring, as it can be used to progress from having a distraction, to an infrequent distraction (music stuck in my head), and using that to practice redirection in mindfulness. i utilize mindfulness a lot in my spiritual practice so i thought this was pertinent.

i hope some of these methods prove helpful to someone! feel free to reply with any songs that are spells by themselves: one of my favorites is sympathy magic by florence + the machine.

"Didn't Frankenstein teach you anything?

Don't revive dead things

Stop, don't resuscitate

Please don't, don't hesitate

Just let it die, we've had our time

We'll be alright"

MY HOUSE [a spell]

A musically inspired banishment featuring My House by Pvris

Never thought that I would feel like this Such a mess when I'm in your presence I've had enough, think you've been making me sick Gotta get you out of my system It's my house, and I think it's time to get out It's my soul, it isn't yours anymore It's my house, and I think it's time to get out

For a place to be haunted is for it to be inhabited or frequented by ghosts, which are commonly believed to be the souls of those who have passed on. Just as ghosts are sometimes viewed as ethereal spirits, they can also be viewed in a metaphorical light - burdens, emotional baggage, past relationships or past partners, scorned lovers, trauma, etc. If negative energy from past situations can attach itself to you, why not your home or your belongings?

the place you were standing when you got bad news. the bathroom floor you sat on when your heart was broken. the car you drove with nothing but tears in your eyes. the door you slammed when you were upset. the piece of jewelry they gave you, hidden away in your bedroom. that special mug you haven't touched in years.

That being said, use this banishment against negative or harmful entities in your home, or for metaphorical "ghosts" in your life to improve your physical and mental wellbeing.

Instructions: With your intentions clearly defined, blast this song or scream/recite the lyrics while you cleanse your hearth and home, and then cleanse yourself afterwards.

Space cleansing - Scream. Cry. Bang pots and pans. Stomp around. Burn some incense. Use a floor wash. Physically clean. Wash those dishes. Wash your clothes and your sheets. Purge belongings with emotional attachments that no longer serve you. Spray holy water or charged water around your house. Light a scented candle. Sprinkle salt on your floor and sweep it out the door. Up to you! Use your rage and grief and sadness and upset to let these negative energies/entities know that they are NOT welcome in your life in any capacity and that it's time to get out.

Self cleansing - Take a shower or bath, wipe yourself down with baby wipes, simply wash your hands, egg cleanse, smoke cleanse yourself with incense, douse yourself in magical water, etc. as a final step to rid yourself of lingering negativity.

Drink some water, have a snack, be kind to yourself, and get some rest. ♡

Notes: I would recommend setting wards or protections after the banishment and cleansing is done, but that's a topic mentioned in several other posts I have made - here's a helpful link. ↓ ⇢ Protection & Warding Masterpost ⇠
