We tried this at the last guild and it went over fairly well. I believe it was a big help. Be sure to use caution when selecting a spell however, for some of these may carry warnings of advanced healing practitioners only.

When I have time I will post for you what spells I have from my personal collection. One of my main thrills in life is helping others, though I do prefer the company of my book, plants, and animals to that of people; prefering my solitude. I can''t help but give assisstance to those in need.

If you as well have spells that you wish to share with the guild feel free to post them here. But please, I ask that no nonsense or chit chat be posted; or at least as little as possible. PM me with questions you may have.


Blessed be thy path and Blessed be thy day.
May merriment be shown to this and your way.

TIPS FOR MAGICAL HEALING SPELLS [ Before you get started ]

~Where illness derives from bewitchment, particularly where a hex was cast using some sort of tool like a wax figure, it may be necessary to find and remove the trick for healing to be accomplished There are also usually specific magical antidotes and jinx-reversal spells

~In general, one must cast ones own spell. However, healing spells are unusual in that it's very likely that someone else must cast the spell on behalf of the ailing person. The person who needs or desires the spell may be in no condition to perform the spell. Most although not all, healing spells demand the presence and sometimes the participation of the patient however.

~Given the opportunity to choosed, many traditions assert that the rfull moon is the best time to initiate healing spells because as the moon diminishes, so should pain and illness.

The following are
DIAGNOSTIC SPELLS


As we have seen, according to general metaphysical wisdom there are three sources of illness:
~Those attributed to neutral, completely physical causes
~Those cuased by some sort of spiritual and/or magical force
~A combination of the two

Sometimes in order to determine the crrect approach to an illness, especially when other conventional methods have failed, a magical diagnosis may be in order.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Bear Diagnosis Spells

Bears are closesly identified with herbal medical systems. A popular magical theory regarding how people acqurired herbal knowledge is that bears taught it to us.
Appeal to Bear Spirits to help establish a diagnosis or determine treatment.


1) You will need a full-frontal image of a bear's head, a sort of portrait, although a photograph of a real bear is more powerful than a drawing. Whetehr the rest of the bear is in the photo is irrelevant. The crucial element s that you can look directly into the bear's eyes.

2) Just before turning out the lights to go to sleep, gaze into the image bear's eyes. Take your time. Treat this as a meditation. In your mind, elucidate what information you require, while continuing to gaze into the bear's eyes.

3) When you feel ready, place the image under your pillow; turn out the light and go to sleep.

4) Insights and inspiration sent by the bears, although you may not necessarily see the bears, should emerge in your dreams. Repeat as neeed.

Action on behalf of bears' welfare and habitat may enhance chances of success or serve as a reciprocal gesture.

Perhaps you'd like a more direct approach. Well, it's not advisable to directly approach bears. Contact with humans typically ends in tragedy for person and bear alike. However, dreams permit access not possible in waking life.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Bear Dream Journey Spell

A traditional European fairy-tale image depicts a person, usually but no always a woman, riding on a bear's back. Let a dream bear take you on a healing journey. This visualization is excellent when you know what ails you but dont know how to treat it. Bears are repositories of traditional Medical wisdom.

1)Take the image of a bear to bed with you. Three dimensional images are best, something like a zuni stone fetish or even a toy bear, providing that it's "bear-like" rather than too cute. The advantage of the 3-D bear is that you can hold it in your hands while you journey (or if it's a big enough stuffed animal, even ride it) but if all you have is a photo image or similar, use what you have.

2) Prepare yourself for sleep. Turn out the light but begin your dream while you're awake.

3) Visualize your bear - the dream bear doesn't have to look like the image.

4) Visualize the scenario where you meet the bear, mount the bear and tell the bear what you need to find (a remedy). Then let the bear take over.

5) At some point you will probably fall asleep, although some people achieve waking visualizations. The journey should continue in your dreams. Repeat as needed until the information you require is received.

Make sure that at the end of the visualization the bear returns you to where you began. If this doesn't happen in your dream, work with it while awake.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Egg Diagnostic Spell (1)
Mexican


This diagnostic spell offers possibiities of divination also.

1) Gently rub a whole, raw egg (the original spell suggests a freshly laid egg) all over the ailing person's naked body.

2) Break the egg in a dish

3) Whatever forms are assumed by the egg or the broken shell will reveal causes of illness, diagnosis, and/or advice on how to get rid of it or cure it.

Egg Diagnostic Spell (2)
Pow-Wow


A Pow-Wow diagnosis is intended to determine whether an illness is caused or aggravated by malevolent influences. Pass a whole raw egg over the individual's body.
Break it into a bowl: if there are traces of blood, this is evidence of psychic malfeasance.

Healing Party Spell

As long as you're holding a vigil for someone who's aililng, you may as well do something constructive. This ritual is intended to shed light on mysterious, serious illness so that a cure may be determined. Do not be fooled by the description of the offerings as "humble", this is modesty in the face of the Spirits. In reality, each element is derived from the sacred.

This ritual is performed by seven people - no more, no less - on behalf of another who is ailing. (The person who is ailing does not count as one of the seven and is not expected to be present.) One person is designated the leader of the ritual, the official "curer," the stand-in for what was once a shaman's job. This person serves the others and addresses the Spirits.


1) Prepare a large dish of spicy tamale.

2) Burn copal to cleanse the space.

3) Illuminate the room with candles.

4) Each of the sevfen participants is given a glass of brandy, a cigarette, and a slice of tamale. Each places a little of what he or she has received in a clay pot, placed near an item of clothing belonging to the sick person.

5) The leader speaks, addressing the Spirits:


"You , Masters of the Seven Airs* and the Eart, healing and help this child of God (or what ever god/ess you use)

[Name] child of [Name}

Make him/her well. Remove illness from him/her.

In exchange, I bring this humble offering of brandy, tobacco, candles, copal, and tamale.

I bring you the fire so tha tyou can bring illumination and show the exact spot where [he/she] met this illness."


This ritual blends pre-Columbian tradition with Roman Catholicism. and so ois accompanied by fervent prayers and petitions to God and the saints. Especially mary Magdalene. Repetition of Psalms would not be inappropriate. (Incorporate your own spiritual belif and petition)

~Meaning that you may adapt this spell to fit any religious belief you follow. It is an invocation asking for clerification from the god/ess of your choice.

Hot Pepper Diagnostic Spell
((Detecting and removing the Evil Eye))


If the Evil Eye has been cast, this diagnostic method from India detects and removes it.

1)Prepare a fire.

2)Pass a whole chili pepper over the ailing person, as if it were a smudge stick.

3) Throw the pepper into the fire.

4) If the resulting smoke smells of the chili, the illness is definitely not attributable to the Evil Eye. Continue to search for a diagnosis and remedy.

5) If the chili burns without creating a distinct aroma, the person was afflicted but the influence has now been broken.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hot Stone Diagnostic Spell

A Scottish Diagnostic Method attempts to determine from which part of the body an illness derives.

1) Designate individual stones to represent parts of the body. Traditionally three are used, one for the head, one for the heart, and one for the body but you can designate any number or system that suits your situation, providing the stones are distinctive and identifiable.

2) Place them overnight to rest in the hot ashes of the hearth. (No hearth? burn incense in cauldron and use that instead.)

3) In the morning, drop the stones one at a time into a basin of cold water.

The one making the loudest sound on contact with the water provides the diagnosis.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Popping Clove Diagnostic Spell

A Greek ritual determine swhether an illness derives from magical or conventional sources. Before you begin, select a set number of cloves: twelve is customary, but choose what is most significant. Otherwise, this spell may be performed endlessly.

1) Insert a needle or pin through a dried clove.

2) Hold it over a candle flame.

3) Murmur psalms. If you fear the illness is caused by malevolent magic or the Evil Eye, verbally send it back and reverse the hex.

4) Once that first clove has burned down, repeart with another. Keep burning cloves one at a time, while petitioning and chanting until finally one cloves snaps and makes a noise. If the sound makes the petitioner jump, flinch, or start, the spell is considered broken. If no cloves snapp, the illness is deemed organic. there is no magical influence. Other causes and treatments must be sought.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Snake Dream Diagnosis

It's no accident that the caduceus, the staff entwined with double serpents, is the modern symbol of the medical profession. Snakes are the primary animals of healing and have been so since ancient days. Once maintained in the temples of healing that were the first hospitals, their venom both heals and harms. Their old skin fades and grows dull, only to be shed painlessly as the snake emerges vivid and youthful once again, revived and refreshed. Because they lack limbs, snakes are always in contact with earth. They burrow in Earth's crevices, live in the sea and in trees: they are privy to all Earth's secrets. Snakes are the guardians and sometimes sharers of Earth's wisdom, the guardians of her treasures, including secrets of healing.

This magical diagnostic technique is especially suited for conditions that defy conventional identification or treatment. An image of a snake is required. It amy be a photograph, a stone fetish, or other artistic rendering; however, it must fit comfortably under your pillow and not disturb your sleep.


1) Bring the image to bed with you before going to sleep.

2) Gaze into the snakes eyes and charge it with it's mission: to reveal the mysteries of your ailment and its required treatment.

3) Place the image under your pillow, then go to sleep. The goal is to incubate the required dream.

4) Repeat this ritual until the dream has been received, clarified, and understood and no further dreams are required.

The Following Are
WARNING ALARM SPELLS


Certain vigilant magic materials provide diagnoses and health warnings, so that action may be taken immediately, before a health problem becomes obvious.


Crystal Gemstone Warning Spells

Crystals and gemstones offer warning service in addition to their other gifts. However, in order to provide this information, they must actually be in contact with with you skin. Check that the backs of jwelry allow for this.

* Rubies allegedly fade or grow dull in the presence of anemia or blood-related disorders

* Turquoise fades and/or cracks in the presence of illhealth

* Coral grows paler and less vivid in the presence of illness.



Unicorn Warning Spell

Allegedly the alicorn, the unicorn's horn, has the magic power to cure any illness. Unfortunately having been hunted to near extinction, if they do exist you sure won't find one. Unicorn-shaped talismans, however, bestow other magic powers: they help detect poisons.

Wear or carry a unicorn charm. SHould the charm suddenly call attention to itself, it is sounding a warning. pay attention and take action if needed.

The following section is on
SPIRIT HEALERS AND DISEASE SPIRITS


This section is on healing spirits you can call upon for help and strength. And on banishing disease demons.



The Aires
In Mexican and Central American magic, the aires are literally the winds, but they're more than just a weather phenomenon. Some winds contain spirits that others don't. How will you know you've met such a wind spirit Typicallly you'll get sick. Although the aires are specific to Latin American magic, dangerous wind spirits exist worldwide. Even the wind spirit Oya, counted among the protective Seven African Powers, is noted as the orisha who controls the cemetery gates. Dating back at least to ancient Mesopotamia, wind spirits have spread disease, sometimes deliberately and maliciously, sometimes not.

1) To heal illnesses caused by the aires, clay figures, usually black, are created. The healer determines what shapes are required; however, animal figures are typical, as are images of holy beings such as archangels. Abstract "towers" representing wind and water are also used. A groups of figures may be needed for one healing. Creation of the figures is accompanied by the murmuring of incantations, chanting of sacred verses, prayer, appeal, and spiritual negotiation.

2) Take these figures, together with a food offering, to the area where the ailing person is believed to have contacted the aire.

3) Choose a ritual cleansing of your choice. (An example for this sort of occasion is listed below)

4) Food and figures are buried on the spot or hidden in the area, then patient and healer return home, by a circuitous route, if possible, without looking back.


(An example of a cleansing ritual for this occassion is the Barrida Cleansing.)

BARRIDA CLEANSING

The Barrida, the Latin American ritual sweeping, uses a handmade broom to sweep the body clean, just like a broom sweeps the floor. One person serves as a cleanser for another - you can't really sweep yourself. Mae a small broom from branches, ideally flowering branches. Rosemary is the most popular choice, but basil and rue are also effective. These botanicals may also be combined. Tie numerous stalks together. Take apart the barrida (the broom) and dispose of it once the cleansing is over.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Archangel Raphael Healing Spell (1)
((Catholic Spell))


The archangel Raphael is the angel in charge of healing. Call lRaphael for assistance with his invocation:

Archangel Raphael filled with mercy
Please hear my call
Vanquisher of demons
Protector of travelers
Endowed with healer's grace
Help all who implore your assistance
Please help me with [fill in the blank]



Archangel Raphael Healing Spell (2)
((Catholic Spell))


Many visual depictions of Raphael exist, from votive imagery to masterpieces of art. Choose an image that resonates for you (one you like, that may call to you), and meditate upon this image or use it as a medium of communication with the archangel. For added enhancement, burn frankincense and red candles near the image.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Blame the Ancestors Spell

According to traditional Chinese philosophy, some illnesses or other misfortunes (particularly those of a chronic nature) may be cuased by Ancestral Spirits. Ancestors may be aggrieved because of a grave is neglected, or perhaps illness and disaster result from a lack of sufficient sacrificial offerings to sustain beneficial energy.These ancestors aren't necessarily malevolent; they just lack enough energy and power to keep harm from your door.
Heres what you can do . . .


*First of all, feed them, and feed them well.
*Verify whether a grave needs tending. Make improvements if you can. If this is impossible, if a grave is situated in a location beyond reach, in parts of unknown or does not , in fact, exist, then explain this to the Ancestors in detail, including what your plans are for compensation. Divination may be in order to receive their opinions on the matter, too.
*Build an ancestral altar or enhance one that already exists.
*Burn paper offerings. The traditional offering is Bank of Hell Cash.((see below))

It may be beneficial to obtain a shamanic diagnosis, particularly in the case of an illness that resists conventional diagnosis and/or does not respond to treatment.


The Bank of Hell
(How to make spirit money)
You can burn real money, as was done at one time or another; but it is not completely necessary, you can make a substitution.


1) Arrange photographs, if you have them, or place objects on a tablet that remind you of your ancestors or would remind them of their connection with you.

2) Place a white candle on the altar, together with a glass of pure spring water or "Spirit Water". Make any other offerings you deem fit.

3) Light the white candle and burn generous quantities of Bank of Hell Notes


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Candle Spell

Offer any spirit, deity, or saint a candle as tall as the person for whom the healing is requested. This European custom of the Middle Ages remains viable and is still practiced. It is particularly effective when petitioning fiery spirits, like Brigid or Diana.
PostPosted: Fri Sep 02, 2005 7:58 pm


I know these should be under Banishing, but their for specific disease spirits so I count them in my healing guide.

Disease Demon
Banishing Spell (1)

According to Ainu and Japanese magical tradition, disease demons despise mugwort. Therefore hang bunches of mugwort throughout the home, concentrating on vulnerable areas, to disperse and repel these malevolent spirits.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

Disease Demon
Banishing Spell (2)

This method will also repel the Evil Eye

1) Take seven glowing coals from the hearth.

2) Circle each one around the head of the afflicted person seven times.
(there will thus be 49 circles)
3) Toss each coal into a bowl of water following use.

4) Either a post-menopausal woman or a pre-menstaual girl (a Crone or a Maiden)
must take the bowl to a crossroads and dump out the contents.
5) Don't look at the water or return home by the same route.

The following are
Djinn Healing Spells

*Attention ~ Some of these are more complex spells and must be cast with care and intimacy. These are not recomended for beginning healers. If done improperly adverse effect may take place.


Djinn Healing Spell (1)
Faced with a stubborn illness that won't improve? Make an offering to the djinn.

1) Buy your own oil but borrow a cup of flour, without explaining why you need it, from a married woman who has only been married once and who has never been widowed or divorced.

2) Mix the oil and the flour together.

3) After dark, leave small portions of this mixture in various places - basically all the djinn's favorite haunts: bathrooms, doorways, crossroads, ruined buildings, near springs.

4) Accompany offerings with an invocation to Simday, Sultan of the Djinn, requesting his assistance. He has control of a host of spirits. Surely one of them is causing the illness or has information.

5) Go home, but don't discuss your mission. Go to sleep and prepare to receive
answers in your dreams.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Djinn Healing Spell (2)

Instead of going to find the djinn, you can choose to lure them to you instead.

1) Spread sweet butter on sweet bread. (There can't be ANY salt in either the bread or the butter; the djinn will refuse the offering)

2) Talk to the bread, murmur over it, tell it all your troubles and physical concerns.

3) Place the bread on the roof of the house, announcing aloud: "[name of god you choose]! I complain of my illness to this bread!"

4) Leave it exposed overnight so that the spirits can partake of its essence.

5) In the morning dispose of it by either holding a funeral for the bread; bury it in the Earth, complete with funeral rites. Alternatively, give it to a dog to eat.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Djinn Healing Spell (3)

This method of requesting healing and protection was developed in North Africa specifically for the Djinn, but the format could be used for any spirit.

1) Pass handfuls of cumin and coriander seeds around the patient's head.

2) Holding the seeds in your hands, talk to the Spirits. (Although this may be accomplished for oneself, it is a descendant of shamanic rites and traditionally one person performs the ritual on another's behalf. Also, it is understood that the person requiring this cure may be in really bad shape and in absolutely no condition to cast the spell.) Say something like:
"I place myself under your protection, under the protection of al the great ones and the small ones among you.
I place myself under the protection of [ Begin invoking names - whose protection, patronage, and healing skills do you seek?]
If [name] child of [name] has wronged you, if she has offende dyou, if she has angered you, if she behaved badly, if she was angry, resentful, selfish, rude [keep going], please seek out the one who has done harm to her. Implore him to release her." [You can also ask the spirit to intercede with a God/ess]

3)Try to get the patient to chew the seeds now. If she is unable or unwilling, you chew them and spit them out, Lick the patient's hands immediately.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Djinn Healing Spell (4)

A variation of the above spell may be cast without the patient's presence.

1) Chew coriander and cumin seeds while composing a letter to the Spirits. Use the same format in as the spoken chant above. DOn't stop chewing yet or if they're all chewed out, keep the seeds in your mouth.

2) Place the letter in an envelope. Spit the seeds out and lick the envelope to seal it.

3) Burn the letter together with fresh coriander and cumin seeds.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Djinn Healing Spell (5)
This spell attempts to bribe or pay off an invading, disease-causing spirit.

1) Soak a coin of reasonably large denomination in spring water, "Holy Water", "Angel Water", or "Carmelite Water".

2) Burn black and white colored benzoin.

3)Pass the coin through the incense smoke and place it under the patient's pillow.

4) Should the patient begin to recovery, ask a spirit worker to divine who (which spirit), caused the illness. Donate the coin to a cause dear to that spirit's heart. Feel free to supplement with additional cash.

((In Morocco, where this spell originates, the coin would be given directly to the Gnawa shamans who traditionally would have officiated at a formal ceremony.))
PostPosted: Fri Sep 02, 2005 8:05 pm


DJINN HEALING SPELL (6)

*ATTENTION - This incredibly complex, elaborate Moroccan spell is designed to remedy spirit caused illnesses. Syptoms might include any or all of the following: Fever, hallucination, lethargy, malaise, pains in the head, and/or knees. The patient may talk to him or herself, or to others invisible to everyone else.
The spell demands teh participation of four women besides the person performing the ritual on behalf of the patient. (Unless specified otherwise, all steps of the spell are performed by this person acting on behalf of the patient.) One woman, who plays an extensive role, must be a crone (post-menopausal); the other three must be married women, who have each only been married once and who have never been widowed or divorced. If they have living, healthy children (and have never lost a child), this is even better


1) Each of the married women must donate two handfuls of flour.

2) Blend all of the flour together and place it in a white cotton handkerchief.

3)Fumiaget this medicine bundle by burning white colored benzoin.

4) Place it under the patient's head (or pillow) over night

5) In the morning, the crone (post-menopausal woman) opens this handkerchief, removes three handfuls of flour and makes a small loaf of bread with it, using no salt.

6) Use the other half of the flour to make a loaf with salt but no yeast. Put seven grains of barley on the loaf with no salt, and bake both.

7) Purchase five varieties of fish. The spell requires five pieces plus enough for the household to eat. (if using individual large fish, then use the fish entrails for the ritual and offering to the djinn. Eat the rest)

8: Cook the five varieties of fish (one of each, for a total of five pieces of fish) in a brand new baking dish with butter, onions, and black peppercorns, but no salt.

9) Give a little piece of each fish and some of the resulting sauce or cooking liquid to the patient to eat. Rub a little sauce on the patient's writs, elbows, knees, and ankles. Put a ittle under the bed and in each corner of the patient's room. (If you have a lot, you can do each corner of all rooms, but the patient's room is most crucial.)

10) The crone now puts the salt-free loaf in a b asket, plus a container with the remainder of the fish and sauce.

11) Decorate the container with four small flags: one black, one white, one red, and one yellow. (You can use cocktail flags, children's toy flags, or make some up out of fabric or paper.

12)Add three small dolls, representing a man, a woman, and their daughter. (The dynamics of your own family are irrelevant.)

13) Put a small silver coin into the container and say aloud: "Forgive us if we have forgotten anything you like. Here's some money to buy whatever you want."

14) The crone then places another silver coin in her mouth (she must keep it in her mouth until her return in Step 16), and takes the basket to an isolated place - the seashore is preferred, but any remote place, any place with the reputation of eing "haunted" or where djinn ight linger, is appropriate.

15) On the trip there and back, she must not speak to anyone or ever look behind her. Everything inside the basket should be left at the haunted place but the basket may be taken home if desired. Should dogs or other animals be attracted to the offering, don't give it to them, but don't stop them from eating either. This is actually an auspicious sign.

16) On he rway back, the crone picks up seven stones from the road. She throws them down, one at a time, on the doorstep of the sick person's jouse so that the people within (who have been holding a vigil) will let her in. She can't talk yet nor can she knock at the door. She must keep the silver coin in her mouth until she has entered the house, then she must keep it, not give it away.

17) In the meantime, the remaining fish should havev been prepared. Prepare them anyway you like but make sure you add salt. This fish and the loaf of bread with salt are now eaten by the household. If the patient is a child, then no one but immediate family members and other children may eat. However, if the patientis an adult, anyone may participate in the meal. If someone else isn't feeling well, eating the salted meal should have a beneficial effect.

Like I said, take care in reading over it carefully before performing. Not recommended for beginning healers.

Elf Shot

Like fairies, relations between people and elves may once have been more harmonious. However by the time Christianity was established in Anglo-Saxon England, elves were perceived as a root cause of illess. Elves shot victims with magical aroows or spears, inflicting wounds or disease with no other apparent cause; hence to be so afflicted was to be "elf-shot"
Should you perceive yourself as being elf-shot, do not fret, for remedies exist.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Elf-Shot Basic Remedy
1) Gather betony, garlic shoots, fennel, rue, and wormwood.
2) Bind them together while murmuring sacred verses
3) Wrap the herbs in white cloth and bind to the wound or site of affliction.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Elf-Shot Intensive Magic Remedy

Nine is the sacred number of Anglo-Saxon magic and spirituality. Should these specific herbs not be available, substitute others as required in order to maintain that magic number. Although the basic spell might be accomplished for oneself, this intensive spell requires another to perform the healing ritual.

1) Gather the following nine herbs:
Betony
Chervil
Dill
Fennel
Garlic SHoots
Mugwort
Plantain
Rue
Wormwood

2) Bind them together while murmuring sacred verses.

3)Bless the herbs and the patient nine times.

4)Wave the herb bundle over the patient's body or gently rub it on the body.

5) Burn the bundle, wafting the smoke over the patient as a fumigation.

6) Dispose of the ashes in living water, flowing away from you.
