Problem please help ASAP

[ShadowCat]

Hi. Whilst i am fairly experienced with Magick and have been Wiccan for quite a while, I have a friend who is not, X. X has cast a very immature spell on another friend, Y so that Y finds X annoying. Now Y has suddenly gone very depressed, and i think it may be a side-effect of the spell. What can I do to help Y? Sorry to use the letters it was too complex without them. Please help.

[Rick]

Have to specific about the working...

[Flar's Freyja]

Does Y know about the spell? We give things power by believing in them.......

[Myst]

Maybe it is a side effect and maybe it isn't, there's really no way of knowing. Get him/her medical help if applicable and light a white blessing candle if you like but otherwise there's not much you can do. A reversing spell here may only make it worse if you could do one anyway. You might also want to talk to the person who did the spell about their ethics.

I think maybe if I share something that this may help.

I agree totally with what Myst said.

A few weeks ago, out of confusion, fear, paranoia, I was very foolish. I put a binding spell on a very sweet person who did not deserve that.

even though it was done through an email, it didnt matter...
when I realised how much I hurt her , I lost alot of sleep from the pain and the guilt knowing that I had done this... I was and still am very ashamed of my self for what i did...I asked a friend of mine for advice on how to undo this, she gave me some good advice, and another good friend gave me some further advice on how to go about undoing it....

I feel it in my heart that it has been undone, and I would certainly not blame them if they could not ever forgive me for what I did, but even though I know in my heart that is has been undone, I have to live with myself knowing how foolish I was...

I hope this helps

Perhaps you might share Xander, if it's not too personal how you undid it?

And I agree with Rick that the details of the spell would have been useful. However, in the end Myst is probably right :)

[Xander67]

I can share,

well, I asked someone who has helped me alot this year, and she suggested a fast and do recite a reversal spell,

well, in my state of mind and my emotional state back then I didnt feel as I should rely on my own words as we were in the shadow of 2 eclipses and Mercury retrograde...

so I asked Kaylara, who gave me some wonderful advice and for which I would like to thank her...
she told me that I didnt really need to fast, but I felt like it was neccisary in my own spirit ...

so I fasted for a week, drinking water, and haveing a piece of fruit when I really needed to eat on account of the medication i take...

the prayer was simple, and from the heart.... (Spells are meaningless if the words dont come from the heart)

I also want to thank Rubi for her support and encouragement during that week.

[Myst]

So in short you said a prayer after fasting...?

Again, for ShadowCat, I'd leave a reversal to the person who did it. Only they can reverse what they did (if they can reverse it anyway, sometimes you can't or it just messes up worst), and for you I'd say maybe pray for your friend to feel better and be there for them.

If they want to do the reversal, they might try praying as Xander mentioned, or doing everything they did in the first spell in reverse (including reversing the correspondences, what was said, how the circle was cast, and so on). Depending on how the spell was done. I guess I'll echo Rick and say it'd help to have more info, as in exactly how the spell was cast.

[Xander67]

well actually,
the times that I would normally have eaten, I spent in prayer and meditation...

and I printed out a copy of the email which i had sent that contained the binding, and burned it...while I watched the paper burning I recited a prayer asking that what I bound be now unbound, what was done be now undone,

then each day, I prayed and meditated during the times i would normally eat...

[Myst]

Ah ha I see.

I've never done a reversal, but then I rarely do spells. When there is a real problem with someone I just ask my protectors to protect me and bring justice - ie. if someone's tried to zap me they get it back - or to get them out of my life.

[Xander67]

I dont think I will be doing any magical work by myself for a while, not without asking for advice or talking to someone first,

I need to work on my self control a bit and remember to think before I act or speak....

:dis:

ShadowCat, I hope everythign works out for you, and there are alot of good careing people here that are willing to talk and help..

Basic rule of thumb: Never do what you cannot undo, or break what you cannot mend.
