I've done a healing spell once before, I had my first cervical cancer jab and my arm was really painful (plus the stuff made me feel quite sick) and when I finished the spell my arm felt a whole lot better. This isn't a spell I wrote, I found it on the internet somewhere, but it did work for me, and it is in my first ever book of shadows, so I'll just go and get it... Ok this is what my entry said:
"Thursday 24th September 17:51
I had my cervical cancer jab and had some bad symptoms (not feeling well, almost fainting, arm still hurts after 7 hours) so I'm going to do a spell and a prayer. Also I didn't get to celebrate the autumn equinox
Write the sick person's name on a candle. Visualise healing energy in the form of white light flowing from my hands into the candle. Recite:
In the divine name of the Goddess who breathes life into us all, I consecrate and charge this candle as a magical tool for healing.
Place the candle on top of a photograph of the sick person and then light the wick. As the candle burns down, focus on the photograph, willing him/her to be better. Then recite:
Magick mend and candle burn,
Sickness end, good health return.
Continue to focus and recite until the song finishes*. Then blow the candle out.
Gods of old hear the plea
Of a loyal priest(ess) on bended knee
Heal my illness in good time
I ask of thee, gods divine.
So mote it be!
OMG it's so cool, my arm feels better already!"
And that was my entry, hope that helps, hope your dad feels better soon!
*I used to listen to Witchcraft music (what is YouTube for?) and sometimes still do. You can do that too but it's not essential.
I am always never not broken.
