Bad Thoughts and How Witches Deal With Them Ep. 34
Wiccan
How Wiccans Gain Help from ‘The Dark Mother’
“Do Wiccans get help from the ‘Dark Mother’?” one of my readers asked.
Wiccans know that working with the Dark Mother is helpful when you need to rid yourself of negative energy, illness, and ex-partners.
It is vital to notice that the Dark Mother helps one do something we can call “positive deconstruction.”
Deconstruction can be natural. For example, a tree falls in the woods. It is natural and good for the tree to decompose. Then there will be nutrients for other things to grow.
Here’s another example. A Wiccan can appeal to the Dark Mother by doing a spell in the waning moon (light to dark) to get rid of an illness. You are using magick to get rid of that illness.
As you can imagine, the Dark Mother is the opposite side of the fertile and growing aspect of the Goddess.
A Prayer
Dark Mother,
Help me get rid of _____.
I realize it is natural and good
To let some things decompose
So I may embrace my new chapter of life.
May this process bless your life.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Get Beyond Feeling Inadequate Ep. 33
How Witches Deal with Feeling Overwhelmed
“I can’t take any more of this,” Todd, a workshop participant, said.
“Would you tell me more?” I asked.
“I feel overwhelmed,” he replied.
I felt great empathy for his situation. This began a valuable conversation.
So, what do you do when your back is against the wall?
- Figure out how to lessen the overload
Draw a vertical line down the middle of a sheet of paper. On the left side, list the top three situations that are impinging on you. Directly across from each stressful situation, note two things you might do that could relieve some of your pain. Here’s a helpful angle about this process: Somewhere, somehow, there’s a lesson in all this. Consider writing in a journal about your thoughts and feelings that arise.
- Ask the Gods for Guidance
Meditation is the key here. During your meditation session, breathe in deeply. Ask the God and Goddess, “Please guide me for my good and the good of all involved.” You can also ask, “Is there a lesson for me to learn here?”
- Do a ritual to help alleviate the pain
Ritual is a great process for releasing negative energy—to flush it away.
Also, during a ritual you can create and enhance positive energy.
Ritual to Alleviate Feeling Overwhelmed
What you will need:
- Virgin paper (several slips if you desire)
- Black marker
- Caldron
- Banishing oil
- Banishing incense
- Cakes and wine
Cleanse and consecrate all your ritual tools and items.
(Please note, you use the banishing incense for charging your slips of paper.)
Write on your slip of paper an incident or problem in your life. Anoint the slip of paper with banishing oil.
(At this point, if you have additional slips of paper, write on them and anoint them, too.)
Ignite one slip of paper as you say,
My woes shall burn away, leaving me refreshed and renewed.
Drop the slip of paper into the cauldron and watch as it burns away completely.
(Repeat this process with the other slips of paper if you desire.)
See your problems burnt away.
Meditate on being renewed.
Do the Cakes and Wine Ceremony
Close the Circle
May this process lighten your burdens and bless your life.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Can Qualify to Join a Good Coven
“Are there red flags when a coven screens prospective students and members?” one of my readers asked.
Here are considerations that covens I know consider:
Is the person …
- On time? Does the person get to the meeting place a bit early? Being late is disrespectful to the coven leader and wastes their time. This gives everyone a bad feeling. Be a bit early.
- Reliable? Does the person bring the items he or she is supposed to bring? In a coven, we rely on each other to bring those items we need. How can you do a candle ritual without candles? Fulfill your commitments.
- Trustworthy? Does the person own up to his or her mistakes? A person who cannot admit a mistake is not trustworthy. How can they improve if they cannot see the error? Admit mistakes, resolve to improve and make amends.
- Hard working? Does the person complete homework and other assignments? Make sure you demonstrate your commitment by completing assignments.
- Dedicated? Does the person take the class and the information seriously? Do they study hard and treat the subject with respect? This is how you demonstrate that you really want to be a priest or priestess.
May these guidelines help you in your endeavors.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Use Spell Work to Feel Better
Ever get sick? Not just a cold. I mean, have you been really sick?
When I’m in such a tough time, I make space to get more rest (during which I ask for the Gods’ healing). Then there’s chicken soup—lots of it.
When I’m really physically ill, I ask for my coven’s help.
A Spell of Healing
What you will need:
- One Blue Candle
- Healing oil (or extra virgin olive oil)
- Candle Holder
- Three Stones (your choice) – Moss Agate, Axinite, Beryllonite, Crocoite, Red Jade
- Your Ritual Tools
- Chamomile Tea
- The Sick Person
- Chicken Noodle Soup (or other appropriate soup)
- Warm freshly laundered blanket to be blessed
- Rattle
On your altar, place the Blue Candle. Add healing stones around the candle in the form of a triangle. Put the warmed-up soup on the altar next to the candle on the left. Place the blanket on the right with the rattle on top of it and the Chamomile Tea behind the Blue Candle.
In your Circle the altar will be in the north section. The sick person sits in the middle of the Circle.
Cast your Circle.
Bless the rattle, stones, tea, Blue Candle, soup and blanket by holding each in turn saying:
I do bless this (name of item) that it may heal by the Gods’ hands.
Dress your candle with the healing oil, rubbing from wick to base.
And say:
I pull healing energy to (Name of Person).
Light the Blue Candle and say:
I now heal (Name of Person).
Shake the rattle above the sick person’s head while they take a sip of the soup. Next, with the soup, you walk widdershins (the opposite of clockwise) around the cast Circle’s edge.
At each quarter, say:
West:
With this soup, I banish all illness from the blood
South:
With this soup, I banish all illness from the spirit
East:
With this soup, I banish all illness from the breath
North:
With this soup, I banish all illness from this body! So, Mote It Be!
Bring the soup to the sick person. Have them partake of the soup again. Shake the rattle over the sick person’s head, as the person eats the soup, and say:
I cleanse you of all illness.
Go to the alar and pick up the cup of tea.
Have the sick person take a sip of the tea. With the tea, you walk widdershins (the opposite of clockwise) around the cast Circle’s edge.
At each quarter starting with the West, say:
West:
With this tea, I banish all illness from the blood
South:
With this tea, I banish all illness from the spirit
East:
With this tea, I banish all illness from the breath
North:
With this tea, I banish all illness from this body! So, Mote It Be!
Bring the tea to the sick person. Have them partake of the tea again. Shake the rattle, as the person drinks the tea, and say:
I cleanse you of all illness.
At the altar, hold your athame over the blanket and say:
I call all healing energies to infuse this blanket.
Let it heal the body as well as the soul.
Wrap the blanket around the sick person saying:
You are healed with the Gods’ love.
Do the Cakes and Wine Ceremony.
Close your Circle.
Give the person space to rest and recover.
May this rite bring healing to you or someone dear to you.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater
