In the midst of challenging times, it is essential to find ways to maintain our inner strength, protect ourselves from negative influences, and cultivate stability in our lives. While spellcasting is a deeply personal practice, incorporating a protection and stability spell into our lives can serve as a powerful tool to help us navigate the stormy seas.
Life is an ever-changing journey, and we inevitably encounter rough patches along the way. Tough times can manifest in various forms—personal crises, global uncertainties, unforeseen circumstances or a combination of all of them that disrupts and upsets our otherwise peaceful existence. These challenges can leave us feeling vulnerable, anxious, and uncertain about the future. Remembering that we have the ability to, during these difficult moments to tap into our inner strength and resilience can bring some of that peaceful existence back to us.
When facing tough times, taking care of our emotional and energetic well-being becomes especially crucial. Protecting ourselves from negative energies and cultivating stability can provide a solid foundation for us to weather the storm. Protection spells create an energetic barrier around us, shielding us from harm and negativity. Stability spells, on the other hand, can promote a sense of groundedness, balance, and calm amidst chaos.
Putting space between us and circumstances can be challenging even when times are easier. Meditation is a great practice for creating a space to just be even for a brief moment. Sometimes that is just as or even more helpful than a spell because just having space to breathe and be for a moment allows us room to look around and see potential ways to solve problems.
A quick meditation before starting a spell can create that space and allow us to really figure out what spell is needed and focus our intentions and energies on that while casting the spell.
Performing a spell allows us to focus our intentions and channel our energy towards creating positive change in our own lives and cause a ripple effect inward and outward and back again. Combining multiple spells into one, like this one, can save crucial time and energy at times when your focus and attention are desperately needed elsewhere.
Here is a simple protection and stability spell that you can adapt and personalize to suit your unique circumstances:
Materials Needed:
- A white candle
- A small bowl of salt
- A piece of clear quartz or black tourmaline (optional)
Instructions:
- Find a quiet and comfortable space where you can perform the spell without distractions.
- Light the white candle, symbolizing purity, clarity, and protection. Take a moment to connect with its flame and the energy it represents.
- Hold the bowl of salt in your hands, visualizing it as a potent protective barrier. Feel its grounding energy and imagine it forming a shield around you. Hold that vision for as long as possible.
- If you have a clear quartz or black tourmaline, hold it in your other hand, allowing its protective energy to flow through you.
- Close your eyes and take several deep breaths, centering yourself in the present moment. If you have trouble centering, quietly whisper “this moment is for me, there is nowhere else I need to be” a few times and then exhale fully.
- Visualize a bright, shimmering light surrounding you, encasing you in a protective bubble. See this light growing stronger and more vibrant with each breath you take.
- As you focus on the light, repeat the following incantation or create your own, infusing it with your intentions: “In this time of trials and strife, I call upon protection in my life. Shield me from harm, keep me safe and strong, Stability and peace, I now prolong.”
- Repeat the incantation as many times as you feel necessary, allowing the words to resonate within you.
- Once you feel a sense of completion, express gratitude for the energy and protection you have called upon.
- Extinguish the candle, knowing that its protective energy will continue to surround you.
During tough times, it is essential to prioritize our well-being and seek stability amidst the chaos. Incorporating a protection and stability spell into your practice can serve as a powerful aid in creating a sense of safety, strength, and resilience. Remember, while spells can be potent tools, they work best when complemented by practical action and self-care. By nurturing our inner world and cultivating positive energy, we can better navigate the storms and emerge stronger on the other side, and that energy ripples out into the world all around us.
Note: Spellcasting is a personal and individual practice. If you are new to spellwork, it is recommended to seek guidance from an experienced practitioner or do further research to deepen your understanding of spellcasting principles and safety precautions. Remember to always respect your personal beliefs and intentions when performing any ritual or spell.
