Truth spell – how to find the answers you seek

Truth spell

 The Truth is something that we all both love and love to hate. We fear the truth, we love the truth, truth can be uncomfortable, essential and it is connected to all our senses. Over the course of our life, we learn how to perceive the truth and how to shape it to suit our stories. This can make us feel better, but it can also make us feel worse. It is very common for people to feel inadequate for any reason imaginable. We may not feel worthy. For example, if someone gives you a compliment “your dress looks lovely” you may say “oh this old thing”. Instead rise up, straighten your back and say, “Thank you!”. To find your truth with this truth spell may be the answer to a quest for a happier life.

Eliminate limiting beliefs

 Truths easily turn into limiting beliefs. It is a life long journey to erase truths that no longer serve our lives. This may not be the easiest thing to do, as they are embedded in our subconscious, they can even be inherited from our parents or indeed their parents before them.

 Truths can also involve other people. It can be that you are in the dark about something, and the truth is hidden from you. The truth can also be known by you but hidden from others. This truth spell will deal with truths that are hidden from you.

Fear the truth?

 We often fear the truth, in most cases we are though better off knowing about it, to be able to deal with it properly. The ability to deal with uncomfortable truths around us, makes us stronger. By dealing with uncomfortable truths, we can truly amaze ourselves, we really CAN deal with a lot more than we first thought. Having said this, a truth spell should never be taken lightly, once the truth is out there in the open it may not be what we wished for, and it cannot be undone. Only perform the truth spell if you are ready to know. Don’t forget that you can always ask your oracle cards for guidance.

 Putting off dealing with uncomfortable truths

Stress in our lives is often caused by things that we for some reason put off dealing with. Truths or rather the lack of truth can often be a cause of prolonged suffering that continuously gnaw away at our very being. This can make us very tired, listless, and indecisive. Since we often make our problems bigger than they really are, a truth spell may be the answer. Once you have found the truth you can make a plan on how to deal with the facts.

 To live in a lie for a long time makes it harder to regain the strength to live a fulfilled life. Layers of truths may need to be shed and for this reason the spell may be revisited. The spell is however not designed to alter the truth, just bring it out in the open.

Items needed for the truth spell

A crystal, I use Lapis Lazuli or sodalite (Cleanse and charge your crystal before you start).

A piece of white cotton cloth

Elecampane root

Lavender flowers

Lavender or Ylang Ylang essential oil. (If you do not have any of these oils to hand, use Olive oil instead. Olive oil represent light and knowledge).

A piece of string

A blue or white candle

Candleholder

Salt

Symbolism of the items

 When performing a spell, we use symbolism to link different aspects of the task ahead. Truth and Intuition is associated with the colour blue. The University of British Columbia has proved that the colour blue to enhance our cognitive skills.

Colour

 Blue and Indigo are the colours of the Throat and Third eye chakras. The Throat chakra relates to free speech and the ability to express oneself with words. The Third eye is the all-seeing chakra connected to what we call gut feeling.

Crystals and planets

 Blue is also the colour of the planet Uranus, which is connected to truth or awakening. Continuing the blue theme, we will use a Sodalite crystal (or Lapis Lazuli). Sodalite is said to tease the mind to think in an objective and intuitive manner and strive for truth. Sodalite is also a lovely crystal to include as it calms the mind and helps the bearer to accept the truth and trust that what is to come is the best outcome.

Herbs

 In this truth spell we will use two different herbs; these are Lavender flowers and Elecampane root. Lavender flowers are connected in colour as they are violet /blue. Lavender is said to improve clairvoyance – clear seeing, to clearly see the truth. In Celtic magical tradition, Elecampane or Elf wort is said to improve the communication with the faerie world. It would also better the communication between body and soul as well as sooth a lost soul and help it root itself in a new reality. Both herbs have a magical connection with the element of Air (blue). Air will help manifest new beginnings and bring clarity.

 Another element associated with the colour blue is Water. Water will help manifest healing and bring about psychic and spiritual awareness.

 Salt

I like to use salt to cast my circle. Salt represents purity and your spell work should always be carried out with a pure mind and with harm to no one.

Let’s get to work!

 Make sure you have everything you need including matches or a lighter. You can perform this spell both indoors and outdoors. The kitchen table is perfect, but if you would like to add to the spell, you can choose to sit beneath an Oaktree. Your spell is then be infused with the wisdom of this beloved tree. Wherever you sit, make sure you don’t get disturbed during your session.

 Meditation including grounding and bubbling up

Focus! Start off with a meditation, you can do the one below or you can choose your own favourite. Make sure your meditation includes grounding and bubbling up*, if not make sure you do these before you start. Before the meditation, you ask your question, do it silently in your mind. During the meditation you will quieten your mind and open yourself up for receiving answers. You can find our meditation for truth below.

Casting the circle 

Start the procedure by casting a circle, use the salt to mark a circle, you can also use rocks, string, or imagination. Mark north, south, east, and west. Whilst you do this ask the Universe, watchtowers and spirits for guidance and protection. If you have a wand this adds to get into the right mood. Lay the cloth in the middle of the circle and sprinkle the herbs on the cloth, put the candle in the candleholder and place it in the middle, light the candle. Hold the chosen crystal in your hand.

 Focus your mind on the spell ahead, try to visualise the flame of the candle growing larger and stronger filling your circle.

The spell

 Try to channel the light into the gemstone and imagine it brighter and brighter. Lift your hands high over the candle and start to chant

“Let the truth that I seek reveal itself to me, May what’s hidden come to light, so mote it be”

Repeat 3, 7 or 13 times (or indeed as many times you need to feel focused) and make sure you focus on only this. Take your time to let the spell soak into the gemstone. Blow out your candle during the last repetition of the chant.

Close the circle. Thank the spirits for the guidance and protection. Remove the candle and place the gemstone in the centre of the cloth, fold each corner of the cloth to the middle, then place the bundle into the bag provided and place the bag under your pillow, keep it there for as long as you need. The truth will come to you as dreams, gut feelings or as solid proof of some kind.

*Grounding and bubbling up

In short you should do a short meditation in which you visualise roots coming out from the soles of your feet (you can feel the energies flowing) to securely fasten you to a rock or a root deep deep down in the earth. You then visualise a bubble of white light surrounding you, below your feet, on top of your head and all around you. Do not skimp on this bit, it will keep you safe!
