Spell work:
Carefully carve the name of the person that needs healing (or just their initials) into the candle. Light the candle.
Place the photograph of the person that needs healing in front of the candle. Sprinkle the dried mint leaves onto the photograph and say:
Universe please provide
Healing energy by my side
Send it now, please direct through me
As is your will, so mote it be
Allow the candle to burn out.
Leave the photograph on your altar and sprinkle with more dried herbs as needed.
Feast: Eat and drink something to celebrate your ritual and to help you ground. Sprinkle some of the drink and food onto the earth after the ritual as an offering to deity.
