Now is an ideal time to remove problems, obstacles, or annoying health-related issues such as warts. Gather a small pumpkin, a knife and a large spoon, a white tea light candle, a piece of paper, and a black pen.

Hollow out the pumpkin, discarding the seeds. If you wish to remove a blemish or wart, cut a small chunk from the pumpkin, rub it lightly on the blemish, then place it inside the pumpkin. In any case, write what you wish to remove on the paper, mentally pouring your intention into the paper. Place the candle in the pumpkin and light it. Carefully ignite the paper in the flame as you say:

Waning moon and lantern bright,

banish this trouble from my life.

As the paper burns, drop it into the pumpkin, then place the stem “lid” on it to extinguish the candle. Remove the candle and place the pumpkin somewhere hidden outdoors to rot, activating the spell.
