I am new here. I work with a Wiccan which caused me to do some research. I am in need of a cleansing, I think. I've recently went through a breakup where we both thought we were soulmates. Then, out of the blue, she ignores me. I feel she still loves me, and I wish for the love to return. It's been very difficult on me, and negative energy is pouring out of me. I'm afraid if I do a cleansing spell on myself with all of this negative energy, the spell might backfire in a very bad way. I'm hanging on by a thin thread.
I'm sorry to hear about your breakup and the negative energy you're experiencing. It's important to recognize that negative emotions can affect your magic, but that doesn't mean you should avoid cleansing rituals. A cleansing ritual can actually be very helpful in clearing away any negative energy and preparing you to manifest positive change. As long as you approach it with the right intentions and prepare yourself properly, there's no reason why the spell should backfire. However, if you're feeling overwhelmed or unsure, it's always a good idea to seek the guidance of an experienced practitioner. Take care of yourself.
For a simple self-cleansing ritual, you can start by creating a sacred space and grounding and centering yourself. Then, you can use a variety of methods to cleanse yourself, such as visualizing white light surrounding you and purifying you, burning cleansing herbs such as sage or sweetgrass, or taking a purifying bath with herbs and oils. As you perform the ritual, focus on your intent to remove any negative energy and attract positive energy. Be sure to also take care of your mental and emotional well-being through self-care practices like meditation, journaling, and talking to a friend.
Another important thing to remember is that self-cleansing is just the beginning. Once you've cleared away any negative energy, you can then work on manifesting positive change in your life, including the potential for reconciliation with your ex partner. It's important to remember that magic can't control other people's actions or emotions, but it can help create the conditions for positive outcomes. Focus on what you want and remain positive and open to receiving it.
Thank you for the suggestions. I will definitely do what I can. The last time I meditated, I started feeling nauseous. I haven't done any grounding, I should do that today.
