New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| Color of the day: Topaz
Incense of the day: Lilac If you are concerned about substance abuse or drinking, but don't believe you are an addict or alcoholic, a spell for temperance (balance, moderation) can be a good choice, and is wise to perform during a waning Moon. On your altar, have representations of the four elements, a piece of amethyst, a symbol of substance use, and a symbol of sobriety (for example, a shot of whiskey and a shot glass full of water). Optional: the Temperance tarot card and a drum or rattle. Ground and center. Pick up each elemental symbol one at a time, saying "I am balanced by [air, fire, water, earth]." Repeat "I am balanced, I am temperate" over and over while drumming, rattling, or clapping your hands. Send power into the amethyst. Drink the water, saying, "I choose this." Carry the amethyst with you as a temperance charm. Pour out the whiskey near your front door. |
