Your mind is powerful, and the more you realize how it can benefit your magic, the more you can use it to strengthen and add focus your spells.
Meditation is used to heal the body and mind. It’s also a great way to harness the power of your mind while performing spells. I have found that the most effective form of meditation for magical use are visualization meditations.
Visualization meditations will reinforce your magical intention by walking you through every detail of your spell’s ideal outcome. This keeps you focused and encourages you to believe that your desire is on its way to you.
Creating A Visualization Meditation For Spells
1. Write it Down
The first thing you need to do when creating a magical meditation is to decide exactly what you want your spell to accomplish. Journaling about what your life will look like once your spell has manifested. Write for about ten minutes or until you feel complete.
Your journal intention could go something like this:
I love my new business working from home. I wake up in the morning and meditate before starting my work day-that I love. I open my email to find another new client anxious to pay me a huge amount of money for my services.
I sit outside in my beautiful garden while I work, wearing my comfiest pants and top—an outfit I’d never be able to wear at my old job. This thought makes me smile. I’m the luckiest woman in the world!
Go moment by moment until you’ve documented what an entire day would look like after your spell has worked its magic.
3. Read it Out Loud and Make Edits
Read your journal entry out loud to see if you’ve left anything out and add all your senses involved. Think about what smells, sights, sounds, tastes and physical sensations appear in your ideal day. This will help your meditation feel more “real” to you.
4. Record Your Meditation
You can use a tape recorder with a built in microphone, or you can record with a program like Adobe Audition or Garageband. Experiment with whichever one works best for your needs.
Go to a quiet area where you know you won’t be disturbed to record. If you love music, you can pick a song to play at the beginning and/or end of your meditation.
Remember as you’re recording your meditation is to make sure you’re in a good mood when you do it. If you record your meditation from a place of sadness, that energy might slip into your words and effect the meditation.
5. Test Out Your Meditation
Sit or lay down in a comfortable position and close your eyes. Play your guided meditation, allow yourself to be mentally “led” through your ideal day. Let yourself feel all the excited, happy or peaceful feelings that you hope this spell will bring you.
When the meditation is over, open your eyes and ask yourself these questions:
-Could I see myself clearly throughout this entire meditation?
-Do I believe this ideal outcome is possible for me?
-Did this meditation bring up strong positive feelings inside of me?
If the answer is yes to these questions, congratulations! You’ve made an effective meditation to support your spell. If the answer is no to any of those questions, go back to your journal entry “script” and fix it until you can answer yes to all of those questions.
How Often Should You Meditate?
Decide on a time, place and frequency of your meditations. Try doing your meditation once a week for the four weeks following your spell.
