Magic & Divinations
PROTECTION
Remove a Curse You’ll need to set this breaking spell out on a table or altar space that won’t be disturbed for the duration of the spell.
Ingredients: 5 white candles - Rosemary (oil or herbs) - Salt (fine, not coarse) ![]()
On your table, sprinkle a fine line of salt to draw a pentacle. It doesn’t have to be perfect but try to get it somewhat symmetrical. At each point of the star, add a few drops of rosemary oil or a sprinkle of dry rosemary (yes, right on the table top). Then set 1 white candle at each point.
Light each candle, starting with the one at the top. After each one, say the words: ‘By the dark and the light Your spell ends tonight.’ Let the candles burn for one hour, then snuff them out. Do the same thing the next time, except let them burn all the way out. Leave the candle stubs in place for another 5 days, so the entire spell is in place for a week. After that, any negative magick against you will be gone. (http://ladyarielswiccanwritings.blogspot.com/2011/12/curse-removal.html)

I love rosemary! It's one of my favorite witchy herbs to use. I fire up my oil diffisuer with a few drops of rosemary every time I clean, because of it's purification properties and I swear my place feels just lighter and brighter after I do.
