Banishing Spells & Workings

Banishing spells is a method of working to send out spirits, energies, and people. Banishing workings

often involve prayers, invocations, and spells to call upon powers to expel a spirit, whether that be animalia, mineralia, botanica, deific, angelic, infernal, or otherwise. Typically, banishing formulas will have a fiery quality to them, with herbs associated with deific forces such as Archangel Michael, Saint John The Baptist, Moses, David, King Solomon, or even Christ Himself. My Banishing Self-Igniting Incense Powder contains basil, rue, angelica, and frankincense, amongst many others, which are all powerful botanical allies to expel forces. One way to banish energies and spirits is to simply burn some incense in the four corners of the home, while saying prayers to dispell negativity and evil. One psalm to say is Psalm 25 while burning Banishing Self-Igniting Incense Powder:

Banishing Self-Igniting Incense Powder

25 Unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul. O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me. Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause. Shew me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths. Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day. Remember, O Lord, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old. Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O Lord. Good and upright is the Lord: therefore will he teach sinners in the way. The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way. All the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. For thy name's sake, O Lord, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great. What man is he that feareth the Lord? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose. His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.

 Mine eyes are ever toward the Lord; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net. Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted. The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses. Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins. Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee. Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee. Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.

A Banishing Ritual

For regular cleansing and expulsion, this working can be done. I prefer to do this working when the house is has been cleaned and I can incorporate this as my final steps.

Take a salt bath to start, to clear any small maledictions. For larger cleansings, use Uncrossing Wash, or a bath of rue, basil, and salt. Start from the head and wash downward. Collect this water in a basin, and throw the collected bath into the street or a crossroads away from the house. Mop the floors with salt water from the back of the house to the front. You can fortify this wash with Uncrossing Wash or rue and basil. While doing so pray Psalm 25. Wash the door with the mop water as well, inside and out. Take a vessel of salt water, and pray over it:

O creature of salt and creature of water I conjure you, aid me in dispelling any trouble, strife, sickness, disease, misfortune, confusion, wrongdoing, witchcraft, and any other affliction set against me.

If time permits, an aspergillum of basil, rue, hyssop, cedar, lavender, rosemary, and sage can be made and bound with red thread. Another alternative I enjoy is using cedar, pine, and cyprus, a supposed Three Woods of the Holy Cross. Another variation is to use hyssop and cedar. If anything, using your right hand to asperge the area will suffice. Light a mound of Banishing Self-Igniting Incense Powder on a small heatproof tray or plate. Take the vessel of blessed water, tray with incense, and asperger, and go around the home, dipping the bundle of herbs or hand in the vessel of blessed water, and sprinkling the corners, floor, and ceiling, or anywhere you feel needs particular cleansing. Waft the incense into these spaces. And speaking prayers to repel any negativity, malediction, and witchcraft that has been set against you.
