Make Them Tell
This first spell is targeted at a specific person. Use this spell when you know or believe that someone is being dishonest. This spell is meant to be worked daily during the Waxing Moon leading up to the Full Moon, or until you get the truth, whichever comes first.
You will need:
a white candle
a piece of paper and a pen
rosemary: to promote honesty
cayenne pepper: to encourage discomfort when being dishonest
ground coffee: to enhance the speed of the spell
1. Cleansing yourself and your space in whatever way works for you.
2. Take the piece of paper and write the person’s name three times.
Rotate the paper to the right and write their name three times again, crossing your original writing. Do this one more time – you will have written their name nine times. You will have written on the top,left side and bottom in that order.
As you write their name, focus on the truth you want to hear. See their face and visualize them telling you the truth. Hold this image in your mind as long as you need, tying the visualization and energy to the paper you hold.
3. When you are ready, set the paper down on your working space and dress the candle. Do this carefully, ensuring you don’t use too much. Remember, this candle will burn and so will the ingredients you put on it!
Place the candle on top of the paper with the person’s name and light it. As you light it, speak these words:
"[Person’s Name] has spoken lies,
Reveal them now before my eyes.
Only words with truth the police hear,
Spoken loud and spoken clear."
5.Let the candle burn for several minutes while you focus on the flame and visualize getting the answers you seek.
6. Extinguish the candle when you are finished.
7. Every day for seven days leading up to the Full Moon, light the candle and repeat the visualization and chant.
8. On the Full Moon, repeat the spell and burn the paper with the person’s name in a fireproof dish. Then, let the candle burn completely and dispose of the spell remains in your preferred method.
If you get the truth before the Full Moon, move to step nine and finish the spell early.
Notes: If you are using a jar candle or tealight, you can set it on a plate and place the herbs in a circle around it. If you do not work with the moon phases or you need the truth immediately, you can begin this spell at any time. The phases of the moon simply add another layer of correspondence and energy to your spell. They are not necessary.
Truth Spell Amulet
For those who would rather create an amulet to carry, this spell is for you! In this spell, we aim to create an amulet to protect us from dishonesty and lies. This spell can be done at any time, but a Full Moon is the best phase if you work with the moon phases.
You will need:
a black candle: to banish lies and negativity
a small object: this will be your amulet, so choose something practical for you
salt: to absorb negativity
juniper: to banish lies and negative energy
lavender: to promote peaceful energy and truth
Cleanse yourself and your space in your preferred method.
If you cast a circle, now is the time to do so.
Place your object onto the working space in front of you. You can use a plate for easier cleanup of the herbs when you are done. Light your black candle.
One by one, sprinkle the salt and herbs over your object. As you sprinkle the object with your ingredients, visualize the object infusing with the energy and correspondences of each ingredient.
Hold your hands over the object, palms down, and close your eyes. Visualize the object as an amulet, doing its job and protecting you from lies and dishonesty. Feel how it makes you feel to use it – protected, safe, calm.
Hold this visualization in your mind and speak these words:
With this chant I do create,
An amulet to keep me safe.
Only truth and goodness here,
Banish lies and banish fear.
Let the candle burn all the way down before removing the object from your working space.
Place your newly created amulet in a place where it can do its best work. This will depend on the object you used, but some ideas include on your person (for jewelry or kept in your pocket), at your front door, or on your desk at work.
Once a month or as needed, repeat the spell to refresh the energy of your amulet, cleansing it beforehand and thanking it for keeping you protected.
Notes: If your object is too big or not safe to sprinkle the ingredients onto, you can instead create a circle around the objects. If you are using a larger candle that will not burn completely in one spell, extinguish it when you are finished and use it later to recharge your amulet. Choosing an item with reflective properties, such as a mirror or a different type of metal, can give the truth spell a boost and reflect the person’s energy back to them.
