#forgetting spell

He was so stupid. He knows - he knows - that you have to be precise when talking about magic. He can’t believe he didn’t think of it.

‘Make everyone forget… me’

Everyone, he had said. He remembers saying it. He knows that he did this to himself. He knows that he has no one to blame but himself.

‘You have to understand, everyone who knows you and loves you we- we’d have no memory of you’

He tried to warn him, probably. Or maybe Strange really didn’t expect his spell to be so effective.

He’s Spider-Man. He’s an Avenger. He’s a hero.

But when he takes the mask off, he has no idea who he is looking at in the mirror. He doesn’t know this person, can’t put a name to the face.

‘What if everyone forgot who I was?’

so... EVERYONE in the universe forgot about peter.

everyone.

that means every superhero he was ever in touch with.

captain "hey peter" marvel

peter "is footloose still the greatest movie in history" quill

motherFUCKING stephen "call me stephen" strange

sam "there's usually not that much talking" wilson

bucky "has a metal arm" barnes.

the only people who didn't forget he exists are dead- Tony, May, possibly cap (or he forgot him too), and probably that's it (from people he cares about)

he's ALONE. TOTALLY ALONE.

Bury the Thought spell

Ingredients:

Sand (at least a 2-3 cups)

Ground eggshells

Paper

Black or brown ink pen

Bowl/pan

This spell is ideal when you are dwelling on something you need to forget or trying to break a undesireable habit.

Write the thought or habit down on the paper multiple times, over and over, until you’ve filled the page. Place it in the bowl/pan.

Mix the sand with the ground eggshells. Sprinkle a bit initially right after putting the paper in. Put the bowl in a safe place. Every day add more sand over the course of a week until the paper is completely buried.

A spell for someone to forget about you, for them to stop thinking about you, for them to stop missing you, and for them to move on with their life.

What you’ll need:

★ a white candle - for a fresh start

★ black paper - for grieving and moving on

★ pink fabric - for self love

★ ground cinnamon - for health in love in the future

★ bay leaf - for your wish

★ black pen/marker

Optional:

★a sigil for moving on and/or for forgetting

Steps:

1) Write your name and your chosen’s name in the middle of the black paper with some distance between them. If you have a sigil, draw it between the names. Write your wish (e.i. “for them to forget about me” ) on the bay leaf and set aside.

2) Arrange the black paper and pink fabric with corners offset and with the black paper on top.

3) Make a small circle out of cinnamon in the middle of the black paper covering the names.

4) Light the candle and tip it so wax drips into the middle of the cinnamon circle.

5) Once the first drop hits the paper, say the following:

“To forget. To forgive. To forget about me.

To let your heart be burdened by the thought of me no longer.

To forget me. Tor forgive me.

To forgive and forget.”

Set the candle off to the side and keep lit.

6) Press the bay leaf into the wax.

7) Carefully fold the black paper into an envelope. Fold the pink fabric in a similar manner around the black paper.

This spell was inspired by the Dean Koontz novel Ashley Bell

“People hide truths about themselves from themselves. Such self-deception is a coping mechanism, and to one extent or another, most people begin deceiving themselves when they're children.” -Dean Koontz Ashley Bell

🔥 This requires something to be burned. Modifications for a flameless spell will be added at the bottom. 

You will need: A watch or clock that can be held or placed directly in front of you, a dark blue (or white) candle, a burn safe container, and a paper and writing utensil. 

Optional: Something to hold out the paper, such as tongs, to make it easier to hold in the flame and burn. 

When you first preform this spell, it’s best to be done during a new moon in a place you won't be interrupted. 

🕰 Start by lighting your candle. 

🔥 Write on your paper the specific memory you need to forget. Try to be very concise, and close any loopholes you can think of. 

🕰 Hold or place the watch in front of you and focus deeply on it’s ticking. Say aloud (or in your head) the following: “Everything around me is fading. I am surrounded by a gentile fog. My muscles and thoughts are relaxed as each tick passes from the clock in front of me. This is the forgetting spell. Once destroyed by the flame, the memory written on my paper will no longer be accessible within me. I allow my self to forget.” 

🔥 Burn your memory using the flame from your candle. (The ash can be disposed of however you see fit.)

Flameless Alternatives: 

💧 Rip your paper into very small bits and release it into flowing water such as into a stream or down the toilet. 

🌲 Rip your paper into very small bits and burry it in the ground away from you.

Based on lyrics from Linkin Park’s “Don’t Stay”

Ingredients: • Candles • Lighter or matches • Fire safe container • Paper • Pen • One of the following (or a mix): saffron, tumeric, St. John’s Wort (these act as natural antidepressants), Zoloft, Welbutrin, or other antidepressant*

Instructions: 1. Light candles (I am performing this spell on Imbolc and it aligns with that holiday because light therapy is known to help with depression… as with the candles for traditional Imbolc ritual, the candles represent the sun’s light returning) 2. Take time to remember the memories, hopes, and plans for the future… any of these that you want to forget should be written down 3. Throw the memories into a fire safe container, sprinkle your herbs (or medication if safe- see disclaimer below) on top of the memories and set them on fire 4. Say, chant, or sing the following (or find the whole song and play it)

“Don’t stay Forget our memories Forget our possibilities What you were changing me into (Just give me myself back and) Don’t stay Forget our memories Forget our possibilities Take all your faithlessness with you (Just give me myself back and) Don’t stay”

gonna wash that man right out of your hair

a spell to forget what they did to you.

Find a bar of soap. It can be plain soap, or soap scented/made with things that are appropriate to your situation. if you need help picking herbs an herbal soap bar that’s right for your intents, pinecone.pub is a good resource.

use the soap bar until the carving is gone and become all soap suds. rinse it all off, and envision the suds taking away everything that he has done that you want to forget. as you watch the last of the bubbles go down the drain, say:
