Bad dreams? Insomnia? Restless, interrupted sleep? Try this Good Night Sleeping Spell and allow the magic within to help you get a good night’s sleep.

You Will Need:

• Dried chamomile
• Bowl
• Pentacle
• Sea salt
• Boiled water (slightly cooled but still hot)
• Feather
• White pillar candle
• White pillow slip
• Small pouch (white, blue or black, perhaps with a star pattern etc)

Method

On a night during the waning moon (so, between the full moon and the dark moon), take all items outside and sit quietly for a few moments then say:

As the Goddess is my witness

I seek a greater peace

From my conscious mind

To which I bind

At the times I should release

Let the light of blessed darkness

Be directed this way hence

That I may sleep

Each night so deep

When I’m ready to commence

Place the pentacle in the bowl and say:

My body seeks a wholeness

With my spirit and my soul

This symbol base

In love and grace

Shall aid me in my goal

Sprinkle sea salt in the bowl and say:

The earth compels a nearness

Represented by this salt

To cleanse and heal

And truth reveal

Acknowledged without fault

Wave the feather over the bowl and say:

The air creates a clearness

Represented by this feather

Of mind and thought

And learning sought

Working here together

Pour the water into the bowl and say:

The water shines with cleanness

Represented by this liquid

Pure once more

Each drop I pour

Negativity here I forbid

Place the candle in the bowl, light it and say:

The fire instils a boldness

Represented by this flame

Our passion deep

For restful sleep

To which I now lay claim

Place the pillow slip in the bowl so it is completely submerged in the water loosely around the base of the candle being careful to avoid the flame then place three pinches of chamomile in the bowl and say:

The chamomile invokes a calmness

Instilled into this weave

That sleep may come

When each day is done

And a restful night I will receive

Spend some time staring into the flame of the candle while filling yourself with a feeling of calm as you visualise yourself lying peacefully in your bed getting a good night’s sleep. Inhale the smell of the chamomile and create a connection to that scent within you.

When you are ready, extinguish the candle with a few drops of the water from the bowl. Wring out the pillow slip, pour the remaining water and any salt from the bowl onto the ground and say:

As the Goddess is my witness

I am thankful for this rite

That brings me peace

And sweet release

As I lay down to sleep each night

Allow the pillow slip and the chamomile in the small pouch to dry (it may not be able to be used that night) then put the pillow slip over your pillow and the pouch inside the pillow slip. As you drift off to sleep, inhale the fragrance of the chamomile and think about when you performed the spell then enjoy a wonderful, restful night's sleep.
