In moments when negative energies bind us or when past connections weigh heavy, it’s essential to seek both release and renewal. This Unbind & Purify Spell is crafted to gently sever those ties that no longer serve you, while inviting in cleansing, peace, and protection. Using the balanced energies of black and white candles, powerful crystals, and the natural elements of salt and herbs, this ritual will guide you through a process of unbinding and purification, leaving you free and rejuvenated.

Ingredients:

• 1 black candle
• 1 white candle
• 1 clear white crystal (such as clear quartz)
• 1 amethyst crystal
• Sea salt or any natural salt
• Dried herbs (such as sage, rosemary, or thyme)
• A piece of string or cord (preferably black or white)
• A small dish or bowl (large enough to hold the candles and salt)
• A separate bowl filled with dried flower petals

Instructions:

1. Preparation:

   • Begin by cleansing your sacred space. Sprinkle a bit of salt around your workspace, focusing on your intention to cleanse and purify the area.

2. Set Up Your Altar:

   • Place the small dish or bowl in the center of your workspace.
   • Fill the dish with enough salt to hold the candles upright. Position the black candle on the left and the white candle on the right within the dish. The candles should be slightly apart but still connected by the string.
   • Tie the string or cord around both candles, symbolizing the connection or binding you wish to release.
   • Arrange the dried herbs in a circle around the salt inside the dish, forming a protective barrier.

3. Position the Crystals:

   • Place the clear white crystal and the amethyst outside the dish, near the candles. These crystals will amplify the purification and healing energies of the spell.

4. Incorporate the Dried Flower Petals:

   • Set the bowl of dried flower petals nearby. These petals symbolize beauty, love, and the gentle release of any remaining negative energy. You may also wish to sprinkle a few petals around the base of the dish for added effect.

5. Light the Candles:

   • Light the black candle first, focusing on releasing any binding or negative energy. As the flame flickers, visualize the bindings loosening and dissolving.
   • Next, light the white candle, focusing on bringing in purity, peace, and positive energy. Imagine a cleansing light flowing from the candle, purifying everything it touches.

6. Recite the Spell:

   • With the candles burning and the string connecting them, hold the clear white crystal in your hands. Say the following words or something similar:
     “By the light of these flames, I release what binds me,
     All negativity and darkness, I now set free.”
   • Visualize the negative energy being drawn into the string and then released into the flames.

7. Cutting the String:

   • After a moment of focus, take a deep breath and, with intention, cut the string that binds the candles together. As you do this, say:
     “The bond is broken, the ties undone,
     I am free, the cleansing begun.”
   • Visualize the release of the unbinding energy, allowing it to dissipate and leave your space.

8. Purification:

   • Hold the amethyst and focus on its calming, healing energy. Place it next to the clear white crystal outside the dish.
   • Sprinkle some of the dried flower petals around the dish, and say:
     “With these herbs and petals dear, I purify and hold love near. All that hinders, now release,
     I call upon protection, strength, and peace.”
   • Imagine the herbs and petals releasing their purifying energy, filling the space with a renewed sense of peace and clarity.

9. Closing the Ritual:

   • Allow the candles to burn down completely, or snuff them out if you prefer. As the flames die out, feel the completion of the unbinding and purification.
   • Thank the elements and energies that aided you in the spell. Bury the remnants of the string, herbs, and salt in the earth, symbolizing the return of released energy to the Earth, transformed and purified.

10. Aftercare:

    • Carry the clear white crystal and amethyst with you as a reminder of your unbinding and purification. Cleanse them regularly to maintain their energy.

This version of the spell emphasizes the symbolic unbinding by cutting the string and incorporates the additional elements to strengthen the purification and release of negative energies.
