This ritual will help sever negative energetic ties while keeping space for healing and love (if desired).
🌿 Materials:
- Two white candles (for peace and healing)
- A piece of string or twine (symbolizing the energetic connection)
- A piece of paper and a pen
- A small bowl of water (for emotional cleansing)
- A small dish of salt (for protection)
- Scissors or a ritual knife (for cutting the energetic cord)
- Rose quartz or amethyst crystal (for healing and emotional clarity)
- Lavender or chamomile incense (for peace and calm)
🌀 Steps
- Prepare Your Space
- Light the incense and cleanse yourself and your space.
- Sit in a quiet, undisturbed place where you feel safe.
2. Write Your Intentions
On the piece of paper, write the name of the family member(s) whose energy you wish to release. Below their name, write a statement like: “I release all negative energy and emotional weight connected to [their name]. I free myself with love, and I allow healing to take place.”
3. Tie the String Around the Candles
- Place the two white candles in holders, a few inches apart.
- Tie the string around both candles, connecting them.
- This string represents the energetic tie between you and the person.
4. Light the Candles & Speak Your Intention
- Light both candles, saying:
“With love and clarity, I release what no longer serves me. I choose peace, healing, and emotional freedom.”
5. Cut the Cord
- Hold the scissors or ritual knife and visualize all negative energy dissolving.
- When ready, cut the string between the candles, saying:
“I sever all negativity between us. May healing replace harm, and may I move forward with peace.” - Watch the candles burn for a few minutes, symbolizing a fresh start.
6. Water & Salt Ritual
- Dip your fingers in the water and lightly touch your forehead and heart, affirming:
“I cleanse my mind and heart from any lingering pain.” - Sprinkle a bit of salt around yourself for protection.
7. Dispose of the Remains
- Let the candles burn down naturally (or snuff them out safely).
- Tear up or burn the paper you wrote on, releasing the energy completely.
- Dispose of the string away from your home.
🌸 After the Ritual:
- Take a relaxing bath with Epsom salt or lavender oil.
- Meditate or journal about how you feel.
- If needed, repeat this ritual whenever you feel their energy affecting you again.
This ritual does not send harm or ill will, but it protects your energy and severs emotional entanglements, allowing healing for both sides.
