Problem-Solving Sleep Spell
Tricky problems and difficult decisions are often a cuase of poor sleep. This spell helps hand those worries over to the Universe while we get to the important business of quality rest! Very often, the needed solution or answer will arise the day after this spell is performed, though, depending on the circumstances, it may evolve more slowly.
-
Sleep-aiding tea, such as a blend of Chamomile, Spearmint and Lemongrass – make your own or use a nice commercial blend.
-
1 bowl – glass or ceramic, but not plastic.
-
1 cup of water
-
Dried Lavender or Lavender essential oil
-
Moonstone or Citrine
-
1 white tea light
Make and steep the tea as you do the following:
Hold the moonstone or cotrine and focus on your question. ( Don’t focus on what you think may be the possible answers, or dwell on the apparent lack od solutions – simply focus on the question or problem itself.) Place it in the bowl, and pour in the water. Light the tealight. Thank the Universe for all you will learn from the experience of the particular question/problem, as well as for its answer or solution. Sprinkle the lavender oil or herb into the water. Drink the tea while meditating on something positive and unrelated to the problem or question. If the problem/question arises in your mind, keep letting it go, without judgement.
These are just a few suggestions for consciously working with the Elements in your magic. As you develop your Craft, its best to create your own spells and charms according to your intuition and connection with the Spirit of the Universe. Continue to read widely and always disregard information or suggestions that don’t feel right to you. Most importantly, continue to cultivate your energetic relationship with the living world around us.
