Step-by-Step Instructions for the Positivity and New Beginnings Spell
Prepare Your Space
Begin by cleansing your space with incense such as palo santo, frankincense, or lavender. Clear away stagnant energy and distractions. Set up your altar with the white candle, crystals, herbs, and the bowl of water. Center yourself with a few deep breaths and tune into the feelings of joy and renewal you want to bring into your life.
Anoint the Candle
Rub a few drops of essential oil onto the candle. If you’re drawing positivity and new energy toward you, anoint the candle from the bottom up to the wick. Place the candle securely in a holder at the heart of your altar.
Write Your Intention
On the paper, write an affirmation such as:
“With light and grace, I now begin,
A path of joy flows from within.”
Fold the paper toward you to attract fresh energy and uplifting experiences.
Light the Candle
Light the white beeswax candle and visualise radiant white-gold light pouring over you like sunlight. Feel it lifting your spirits, clearing old energy, and surrounding you with pure positivity. Speak this chant aloud or in your heart:
“By sacred flame and spirit bright,
I welcome joy, I call the light.
All that’s heavy now shall cease—
Begin anew, in love and peace.”
Use the Crystals
Hold your crystals in both hands or place them around the candle. Close your eyes and feel their energy harmonising with your own—inviting clarity, confidence, and forward movement. Imagine each crystal amplifying your intention for a joyful new beginning.
Burn the Intention Paper
Carefully burn the folded paper in a fireproof dish. As it turns to ash, visualise your life blossoming with fresh opportunities, loving connections, and radiant positivity. Release any doubt or fear into the flame.
Close the Spell
Let the candle burn out on its own (if safe) or gently snuff it out to seal the energy. Thank the universe, the moon, and your guides for their presence and support. Dispose of the ash and wax in a respectful way — bury it in the earth or release it into flowing water.
Final Thoughts
New beginnings are sacred moments to align your soul with its highest path. This spell, when performed with sincerity and hope, can open doors to fresh opportunities and inner peace. Trust the process, keep your heart open, and remember: every moment is a chance to begin again.
May positivity light your way and new joys find you with ease.
