Unfortunately, in our modern fast-paced world, taking control over your life often involves learning how
to control the behavior of other people, so we do not get ground into the dust by them. But a wise person
does not deliberately make other people feel bad by judging them or being cruel to them. There are more
spiritual ways of taking control over ones life.
Protective and positive magic (White Magic) works best when we allow ourselves to go with the flow of
the energies that are at work in and around our lives. The best life choices are made when we pick the
best mental paths to follow, based on wisdom and intuition. Positive, unselfish choices based on love and
compassion brings about the best long-term results.
Every decision we have ever made, and all the things that we want to have and want to be, flow through
our life energy every day. Our wants and needs are a big part of us. We change our life energy patterns
when we do positive magic and try to overcome all the negative things we have done and are doing in
our lives. Who doesn't want a happy, rewarding life? We can overcome all of the hexes, curses and the
bad things that have happened to us only when we make the proper decisions.
Recognizing the effects our decisions and actions have upon our lives is true a milestone of spiritual
development. Using this knowledge and applying it to reshape our lives is spiritual development in
action. Following are some simple spells that anyone can do to help themselves.
To Remove Obstacles
Write down all of the areas where you feel held back in life. When you are done, sprinkle the paper with

to be released from all your anger and hatred. Pour it over yourself and then shower as usual. The tea can
also be used as a hand-wash, to wash away anger and frustration and remove you from bad situations.
I use both these methods to help myself. Years ago, a family member treated me very unfairly and I
became angry and bitter. I could not let go of the negative emotions this produced in me. I did both of
these methods and all my bad feelings just faded away. My life immediately became easier and
smoother.
People often find it difficult to forgive themselves for making mistakes, even if it was not their fault.
Some people torment themselves endlessly over the simplest of honest mistakes. Following is a simple
method for forgiving yourself and asking forgiveness of God.
To Ask Forgiveness
Use Bergamot soap or body wash in the shower. While you are washing, pray and ask God for
forgiveness.
Herbs and incense are simple to use and have many uses. They are used in every major religion. Myrrh is
a gum from a tree, and this is used as incense in churches. Rosewater symbolizes purity and good
fortune.
The subconscious needs some of these scents and smells to realize what we want to do. It cannot help us,
and it might even work against us, if it does not know this. Smells evoke mental images that affect and
change our life energy fields. Herbs and scents can be said to attract the attention of your inner self, by
creating mental images in both your conscious and subconscious mind. Aromatherapy is an example of
using scents to bring about beneficial changes in people.
Certain herbs and teas also help with life problems. Whether these are used as a rinse or ingested, they
