Separating Yourself from a Problem 

by Serena

Ingredients:

•     2 black candles
•     Long black ribbon
•     Black gloves
•     Scissors
•     Cauldron
•     Alcohol
•     Silver Bell

Small issues can be handled in a magick circle, whereas larger issues may need a full ritual. Think carefully about which is best for the situation. You will need two black candles, a long black ribbon, black gloves, scissors, a cauldron containing a small amount of alcohol, and a silver bell.

Cleanse and consecrate all items.

Dress and Bless the candles to banish negativity, and then light them. Hold each end of the ribbon and name the ends. Pass the silver bell over the altar several times, until you feel you are in tune with the Universal energies of love and peace. Anger is not a luxury afforded to you in the situation. Put on the black gloves and say: 

  I call upon the energies of Universal balance
 I call upon the ancient energies of my people
 I call upon the living essence of the Morrigan
 Underworld and heaven
 Land and sea
 I waken these energies unto me.
 Witness now that I renounce and sever
 Break bonds and connections with ______
 By all powers that are One Power
 May the great sisters of karma now weave anew
 And separate me from you
 As I will, so mote it be!

 Cut the ribbon:
 It is so. 

Spell to End a Quarrel

 by Infinite Storm

Ingredients
-small piece rose quartz
-assorted flowers
-cauldron filled half-way with water (preferably spring or filtered)

Before the spell begins, decorate your altar with fresh cut flowers in a manner that will allow them to witness your work.  Call upon your the appropriate deity/spirit of your tradition and ask them to witness your spell.

Place the stone in the centre of the cauldron with water.  Open yourself and allow yourself to feel peaceful.  When you are relaxed, take a step back and while concentrating on the quarrel say..

The time has come for this quarrel to end.
Let anger be released and begin the mend.

Repeat this until you can feel any anger or hurt about the argument floating away.

Collect the flowers and put them in a vase using the water from your cauldron.  Keep them in a place in your home that you go to often and allow then to remind you that all will be well soon.  Give the stone to the other person as a gift.  Try to resolve your differences rationally and if you feel yourself getting angry repeat the chant to yourself.  Your argument should be well on its way to being over by the time the flowers wilt.
