Easy Spell to Let Go of the Past
Letting go is a spell in itself. This one just gives it form.
Some things weigh more than we realize
It wasn’t until I sat in total silence—long after a chapter had ended—that I realized I was still carrying it. A moment, a person, a version of myself... frozen in time. Sometimes, we think we’ve moved on just because life goes on. But inside? We’re stuck in that moment that hurt us, betrayed us, changed us.
Letting go isn’t forgetting. It’s not erasing.
It’s a sacred act of setting yourself free.
And you don’t need a grand ritual to do it. You just need a moment, a few quiet ingredients, and the willingness to release. Today, I’m sharing with you one of the most powerful yet simple spells I’ve ever used to let go of the past—whether it’s an old love, a failure, or a version of yourself you’ve outgrown.
What is a Letting Go Spell?
A letting go spell is a ritual where you consciously choose to cut the energetic cords that tie you to the past. It can be emotional, symbolic, or both. The idea is to turn your intention into action through a sacred moment of clarity and release.
This type of spell is often performed during waning moons, when the energy supports release and closure—but you can do it anytime your heart is ready.
Easy Spell to Let Go of the Past
A poetic spell to help you release and move forward
The Spell Verse
By wind and flame, by root and rain,
I call release from hurt and pain.
The chains of memory now unwind,
The ties once held, I leave behind.No longer mine, no longer bound,
I cast it deep into the ground.
I close this door with strength and grace,
And welcome peace to take its place.
How to Perform the Spell
This ritual is light, graceful, and deeply freeing
What You’ll Need:
- A candle (black, white, or gray are ideal)
- A slip of paper and pen
- A fireproof dish or bowl
- A quiet space where you feel safe
- Optional: sage, rosemary, or lavender for energetic cleansing
Step-by-Step Ritual
- Set Your Intention
Before anything, ask yourself honestly: What am I ready to release? Say it out loud or write it down. Clarity is power. - Write the Memory or Situation
On the paper, write what you are letting go of. It can be a name, a situation, or even a version of yourself. Be specific. - Read the Spell Verse Aloud
Speak the lines slowly, letting each word sink into your body. You may cry. You may smile. Let it move through you. - Burn the Paper
Light the paper from your candle flame and let it burn in the fireproof bowl. As it turns to ash, visualize yourself being freed. - Cleanse the Space (Optional)
If you have herbs or incense, cleanse the space around you in circular motions, saying: “I release, I forgive, I am free.” - Close with Gratitude
Place your hand over your heart and whisper:
“Thank you for the lesson. I release the weight. I walk forward.”
Why Letting Go Can Feel So Hard (And So Magical)
We cling to the past because it shaped us. Because it's familiar. Because sometimes, pain becomes part of our identity. But here’s the thing: you’re allowed to heal. You’re allowed to move forward without carrying the wreckage.
Spells like this don’t delete the past—they honor it, give it form, and then let it rest. They turn pain into power. And that? That’s where your magic lives.
Letting Go Spell Jar (Optional Companion)
If you’d like to keep a token of the transformation, this tiny spell jar is a lovely addition to your ritual.
Ingredients:
- Dried rosemary (for memory and release)
- Black salt or crushed charcoal (for protection)
- Ashes of your burned paper
- A small white crystal (like clear quartz)
- A scroll with the spell or a simple word: “Release”
Seal the jar and bury it, keep it on your altar, or place it under your bed during your healing phase.
Daily Integration Ideas
Letting go doesn’t happen all at once. Here are a few gentle ways to carry this energy beyond the ritual:
- Repeat the spell during the waning moon each month
- Write your own affirmations of release
- Create a “letting go playlist” and dance it out
- Burn a bay leaf weekly with a word you’re ready to release
- Add this spell to your grimoire as a sacred page
From My Heart to Yours
I hope this spell gives you the space to exhale—to put down what no longer serves you and walk forward feeling just a little lighter.
You are not what happened to you. You are what you choose to become after.
You are allowed to leave the past where it belongs: behind you.
What would you like to release today?
Share with me (if you feel called) in the comments—no judgment, just space. Sometimes speaking it aloud is the first step to freedom.
