ECLIPSE MAGIC
A lunar eclipse happens when the Moon and the Sun are on exact opposite sides of Earth.
This is a perfect time to check in with where you are at and what kind of changes, growth, evolution and releasing needs to take place.
Of course releasing these things can be scary, it can bring up fear of the unknown.
But in order to evolve, it is important to be honest with yourself and work out what it is that is holding you back, what needs to change.
This could be an energy, a person, a thought process or a way of life that you need to level up from.
To make the most of this eclipse, work around the time that the eclipse is happening.
You can easily find this online, but for people in the UK the eclipse will last between 5.34pm and 7.32pm
You will need: A pen and paper, Cloves, a bayleaf, whatever you choose to cleanse with and 2 candles.
Start by cleansing your space, however you choose to do this is fine. Sage, salt water, my bodyguard incense.
Light one of the candles ( if you have a candle that has less burn time l, light this one first )
This is your banishing candle.
Write down what it is you wish to move on from, you can choose to do this in a list or write a goodbye letter.
You may find yourself emotional while you are doing this, tears are welcome in banishing spells, allow them to fall on the paper that you are writing what you are banishing.
On a separate piece of paper write what it is you wish to welcome in to your life.
As the eclipse is happening, burn this piece of paper, lighting it from your banishing candle.
After your paper has burnt, blow the candle out.
As you watch the smoke travel from the candle you just blew out, feel a sense change in your body, imagine the weight of what has been weighing you down or holding you back releasing.
Watch the smoke travel and evaporate and see what you have released disappearing with the smoke.
( you can bend the ashes with some salt to neutralise it and either flush it down the toilet or chuck nit in a bin outside )
Then as the eclipse is ending, light your second candle, sprinkle cloves in to the candle, asking them to bring you courage, and an abundance of the energy you wish to call in.
You could also use, chamomile or basil for prosperity or rose petals, sugar or honey to bring sweetness and love to your life.
say out loud what you are calling in to the candle and herbs.
On the bayleaf create a symbol or a word that connects you to your intentions.
Draws it on to the bayleaf and burn he bayleaf allowing the ash to fall on to the paper, to bless it.
See the smoke of the bay leaf travel and knowing that bay leafs are our magical messengers, sending a powerful smoke signal to the universe, of what you are ready to receive.
Over the next 3 nights, relight the candle and again, draw your symbol on the bayleaf and burn it over your list of intentions, saying them out and allowing the ashes of the magical bay leaf to bless your list.
