Burn Away the Sadness Spell

This is a quick little spell for releasing sadness. Witchcraft is of course not a replacement for medical professionals of any sort. Seek help if you need it.

I dreamed up this spell in as I was trying to fall asleep one night. For this spell you will need:

  • an envelope
  • paper
  • something to write with
  • basic energy work skills
  • a match or lighter, and a safe space to have open flames (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Ground and center in whichever manner you prefer. You can shield as well if it feels appropriate to you.
  2. Take the paper and writing utensil. Write down all the things that are making you sad. All of them.
  3. Collect the sad energy from within yourself, in whatever way you prefer. Imbue the paper with the sad energy. Make it connected so that the energy merges with the paper.
  4. Place the paper in the envelope and seal the envelope.
  5. Burn the envelope. If you cannot burn things or do not wish to, rip it to shreds. Visualize all your sadness being burned/ripped up and destroyed along with it.
  6. Dispose of the ashes or paper pieces as you see fit (but keep the environment in mind!)
  7. Ground and center again.

And that’s it! You should be able to adapt this to other negative emotions, as well. Feel free to ask questions, or tell me how it goes if you try it!
