‘May this rift know short shrift’
TO GIVE A BREAK-UP A CHANCE OF HEALING.
Comfrey has long been the favourite herb for mending breaks – quite literally, for it was traditionally fashioned into a poultice and applied to broken bones to heal them. It is used in protection spells as well as healing spells, but this ritual calls on its powers of reuniting, to bring together two people who have grown apart.
YOU WILL NEED
- 2 passport-sized photos: one each of you and your lover;
- 2 or 3 comfrey flowers with leaves;
- a length of white ribbon;
- a steaming bowl or cauldron of boiling water to which you have added a few drops of spearmint oil;
- a small lidded box
CLEANSE YOUR SPELL-WORKING AREA FIRST, NOT ONLY WITH YOUR BROOM OR VACUUM CLEANER, BUT ALSO WITH A BEAM OF WHITE LIGHT SENT AROUND THE ROOM FROM YOUR MIND’S EYE.
This will neutralise any existing bad feeling between you and your beloved.
TAKE THE PHOTOS, FACING TOWARDS EACH OTHER, AND SANDWICH THE COMFREY IN BETWEEN THEM.
Wrap the white ribbon gently around them and secure with a bow, chanting softly all the while:
‘May this rift, know short shrift’.
Put your hands together in a prayer position with the photo package between your palms, asking for help in healing the enmity between you.
Then pass the package through the steam of purification coming from your kettle or cauldron.
THE SPELL IS COMPLETED BY PLACING THE PHOTO PACKAGE IN THE LITTLE BOX AND PLACING IT SOMEWHERE HIGH IN YOUR HOME, PREFERABLY FACING EAST.
Leave it until the argument is mended, then open the box and free the photos with a word of thanks.
