Arnica Healing Spell with Poppet and Clear Quartz
This spell utilizes the healing properties of arnica, the calming energy of blue candles, and the purifying power of selenite. The poppet or doll symbolizes the person to be healed (which can be you or someone else).
Ingredients:
- Dried arnica flowers
- A poppet (can be made from cloth, clay, or wax)
- 2 blue candles
- A piece of clear quartz
- A white bag
- healing energy oil (optional)
Steps:
You should always begin a spell by taking a few quiet moments and really focusing on what you want to accomplish. Imagine healing from the inside out. Surround yourself with a blue healing light of energy. When you are ready: light the blue candles and place them on either side of your workspace. They represent peace and healing.
Fill the poppet with dried arnica flowers. As you do so, visualize the magical properties of the arnica filling the poppet for healing.
Hold the piece of quartz over the poppet, imagining its purifying energy cleansing any negativity or illness from it. Say, “With this stone, I cleanse and purify, allowing only healing energy to reside.”
Once you’ve filled and cleansed the poppet, hold it between your hands. Visualize the person you’re healing as being healthy and free from pain. Pour all your intention of healing into the poppet.
When you feel that your intentions are set, place the quartz in the white bag and tie it closed. Tie or sew the bag to the poppet. The white bag represents protection and purity, keeping the healing energy contained. Anoint the bag with the healing energy oil by placing a few drops on your finger. (oil is optional)
Keep the poppet in a safe place and leave the candles to burn down until they’ve finished. Whenever you see the poppet and bag, reinforce your healing intentions.
