hold between your thumb and forefinger. Mix together a
pinch of cinnamon, two pinches of sage, two pinches of
rose petals, and two pinches of ground frankincense.
Anoint the mixture with three to five drops of
sandalwood oil. Put this mixture into the little bag. Sew
or glue closed the open side. Give it to the patient to
carry at all times. If the patient has lung problems, add
two pinches of spearmint leaves to the bag. If the
troubles are in the head area or the mind, add two
pinches of rosemary. The scent of rosemary is good for
headaches.
Wind Healing
Other types of healing charms use the powers of the four
elements: Earth, Air, Fire, and Water. Many of these
have come down to us through folklore from many
cultures. One of these is healing with Air through the
power of the wind.
The sick person must do this wind healing. It can only
be done for another person if that person is too ill to do
it. Collect small fresh leaves, one for each illness you or
the person has. Take a dead tree branch with several
limbs on it. Go to a place where the wind is strong and
push the end of the dead branch into the ground. Push
each leaf onto the very tip of a dead branch. Chant:
Power of Air, remove all ills. Let [patient's name] be healed and
whole.Then leave without looking back. When the wind
removes the leaves, the action will release powerful
energy for the healing.
Sick people must do most healing charms using the
elements themselves. This is part of the patient's
involvement and responsibility for healing.
