The Art of Banishing
We all have things in our life that we would like to be rid of. Whether it is an annoying person, a bad habit or something that is disrupting our path, we all have those things that we wish would leave our vibrational field. Before we begin talking about banishing, we have to talk about why we have these things in our lives.
We all vibrate at specific frequencies. Our minds are the heralds of thoughts and from those thoughts arise many different vibrations. Vibrations run through our body. Our cells and molecules all vibrate at different vibrations that make us, us! When we vibrate at these specific vibrations we will attract to us different things. Some of these things we will like, some of these things we will not like, and other things we manifest can be deadly to our health, these are addictions.
This is the same with people. We vibrate different frequencies and sometimes the things that have caused us pain in the past or hidden beliefs about ourselves, oftentimes bring us people to bring those out. People who have been abused often manifest individuals to take the place of their abuser.
When we are banishing people in our lives, there are two components of the banishment. The immediate and exposed banishment, and the subtle and hidden inner banishment. You will want to banish the individual who is harming you, but you will also need to go inside and look at why you manifested them in the first place. There are always underlying vibrations in our subconscious that will be pulling people to us. When these people are damaging, it is a warning that we may have damage inside of us that needs to be healed.
This is where the shadow component of banishing comes in. Looking deep into the shadow of our soul and embracing shadow work will help you to locate this damage and work to heal it. Sometimes when we are working with the shadow it can bring people back into our lives who we once banished. It is important during those times to ignore the one who was banished and continue to shift into the new reality where you are free of them.
Mammon taught me an amazing method for banishing where you shift your energy vibrations and completely change them, then essentially wipe the person from your life! It is amazing and my record for banishing an individual is less than 12 hours. This does not mean that you won’t still have to heal, as removal of one toxic person without healing will bring another one. It just gives you room to breathe and also if you stay in the new energy vibration, away from the individual who harmed you. You will heal yourself and heal what hides in the subconscious.
It is an amazing technique and one that works incredibly well with banishing. You have to raise your vibrations out of your abuser’s reality. This means shifting entirely away from them and ignoring them, not responding to them and not reacting to them. When they do something that upsets you, immediately engage in a high vibrational activity that brings you joy and pleasure. When you are able to do this an hold the state, it is amazing how fast these people will shift from your world and be removed!
I will give you an example. If a woman attracts a narcissist because she has a codependency, banishing the narcissist won’t help the over all cause.. Where one leaves, another will step in and take his place.. She needs to balance and heal the codependency which will remove that energy and stop the manifestation of the narcissist. Sometimes when banishing we need to banish the cause, and once that is banished it will remove the effect.
People can very easily be banished from our lives, though when we do it is always important to seek out inside of ourselves what caused them to come into our lives in the first place! When you completely release yourself from that energy then you will have not only banished the toxic individual causing you pain, but also the underlying vibration that is bringing them into your life.
There are other things that we wish to banish in our lives as well, addictions and unwanted habits are another one that banishing magicks can work well with.
When we are addicted to something, we become so familiar from a specific vibration and so entranced with the pleasure that we received from it that it begins to dominate our life. We become dependent on the vibration to lead us to a particular state. The reason we are drawn to that state usually if from an underlying trauma or pain. When you have these traumas and pains it can lead to addiction. We get temporary relief from the addiction in the form of temporary pleasure, it masks the pain. When working at banishing an addiction, you cannot banish the behaviour, you have to banish the cause.
Sometimes when we use banishing spells, especially with addiction they are layered, and we end up banishing the wrong thing. With things like alcohol, sometimes it is not the addiction that we need to banish, it is the underlying reason why we are drinking that needs to be banished. When banishing there are sometimes root causes, and the alcohol is just an effect from that cause. When we banish we need to banish the cause. When a spell doesn’t work, it means that it needs to be refocused and possibly shifted so that we banish the root element, especially if it is deep.
Addictions are one of these things where the layers need to be banished. As you start working through the energies the spell will banish the addiction for one time, but if the underlaying cause is not banished as well, then it will come back.
It is like cutting weeds in the garden. Cutting them they grow back, pulling up the root, that will remove the weed permanently. Addictions can be interesting to banish as they often time root themselves into our psyche. So if we just cut the top off the root grows again.
Some addictions also take time and the banishment spell needs to compile on itself and get stronger. Banishing things like food cravings, fat, addictions, harmful people, people you don’t like, all can be incredibly empowering. Banishment spells are a spell of raw empowerment because you essentially are deciding to remove something from your life that is harmful. You are taking back control of your life and removing that which does not serve you.
Banishment rituals are also incredible for banishing unwanted energies and entities. Performing a banishing ritual in your house can remove and eliminate negative energies that tend to build up and accumulate. They are also usually cast at the beginning of rituals, in the form of a banishment ritual for claiming and purifying the casting space. There are also banishment spells that one can cast which are usually more personal and customized to one’s individual needs of banishment. Banishing rituals have been used to remove entities that are causing problems to the individual and harming them.
There are many tools that you can use as well when banishing, like Hot Foot Powder and I love the use of Dragon’s Blood for banishment. Stones which are wonderful additions to any banishment working are Blood Stone, Tourmaline, Jet, and Black Salt. Herbs and plants which are good are Stinging Nettle, Black Berry Bushes, Wormwood, Devil’s Claw, Garlic, Thyme, Rosemary and Hellebore to name a few.
Rituals on banishment should be cast during the waning moon to the New moon. Moving the energies from full to nothing, while the moon is in Capricorn or Scorpio. Saturdays are also a wonderful day to cast banishment magicks on.
Banishment magick is incredibly versatile and can be used for many different things! It is good to play around with the energies and experiment with them to find what aligns most with you.
