Breakup Spell in Witchcraft

A breakup spell can be a way to help dissolve a relationship that is no longer serving you or someone else. Here’s a simple yet effective spell that you can perform.

Materials Needed

  • Black candle: For banishment and breaking connections.
  • White candle: To cleanse and purify.
  • Picture or name paper: Of the person or couple you wish to break up (if available).
  • String or thread: To symbolize their connection.
  • Salt: For purification.
  • Fire-safe container: For burning.

Steps to Perform the Spell

  1. Prepare Your Space:

    • Find a quiet, private area where you can focus without interruptions. Cleanse the space with sage or incense if desired.

  2. Set Up Your Altar:

    • Place the black candle on the left side and the white candle on the right side. Sprinkle salt around the candles to create a protective barrier.

  3. Write Your Intention:

    • On a piece of paper, write your intention clearly, such as “I break the bond between [names].”

  4. Light the Candles:

    • Start by lighting the black candle and say:

    “With this flame, I sever the tie,
    Let their love fade, let it die.”

    • Then light the white candle and say:

    “By this light, I cleanse and clear,
    Let peace return, banish the fear.”

  5. Use the Picture or Name Paper:

    • If you have a picture or paper with their names, hold it over the flame of the black candle, allowing the smoke to curl around it. Visualize the connection between them weakening.

  6. Tie the String:

    • Take the string and wrap it around the paper or picture, saying:

    “As I tie this knot, their bond does break,
    No more love, for their own sake.”

  7. Burn the Paper:

    • Carefully burn the paper in the flame of the black candle (using a fire-safe container). Visualize the energy of their relationship dissipating into smoke.

  8. Close the Ritual:

    • Allow the candles to burn for a while longer if you can. When finished, extinguish them safely. Thank any energies or spirits you called upon for their assistance.

  9. Dispose of Remains:

    • Dispose of the ashes from the burned paper outside, ideally at a crossroads or a place away from your home.

Additional Tips

  • Timing: This spell can be performed during a waning moon for enhanced banishment energy.
  • Visualization: Strong visualization of the relationship fading can enhance the effectiveness of the spell.
  • Focus: Ensure your intention is clear and focused throughout the ritual.

This breakup spell is a powerful way to help dissolve a relationship that is causing pain or unhappiness. By combining intention, candle magic, and symbolic actions, you can create a ritual that aids in breaking bonds and restoring peace.

Candle Magic to Separate a Couple

Back to Back Separation candle
Back to Back Separation Figural Candle

Candle magic is always the easiest option for a quick break-up spell. Simply grab the appropriate candle, dress it with the appropriate herbal oil, write a petition of what you are acquiring, and send it off to the spirit of your choice!

Candle Colour: Black

Oils: so many to choose from, but the most popular are called: Break up, separation, DUME

Timing:  Tuesdays (MARS energy – fighting); Saturdays (SATURN – destruction)

Jar Candle Types: these have various names and you could use: separation, Break up, snake, DUME

Figure Candles: Black Back to Back Couple or Black Marriage Candles  (looks like a candle you would stick on top of the wedding cake but the figures are black and so this indicates that you want them to divorce). For same-sex relationships, I suggest you use two single-figure candles of the appropriate sex.

The Black Back to Back Couple can be used for:

  • Separate two people having problems or causing problems
  • End your lover from being with another
  • Keep your mate from straying/cheating
  • Keep your family from breaking up
  • Breaking up/Ending a relationship

TIP – Break at work is difficult so don’t lose faith in your magical skills if the couple doesn’t separate immediately after you finish the candle. The breaking up of two people is a process where each individual must make the decision to leave the relationship. Initially, the effect of your spell may cause disagreements in the relationship and that is a great first step. There are many reasons why people stay together after you have broken the love cords. You should continue burning continuous candles against the relationship for at least a period of time and then allow the magic to do its thing. 

If you’re not sure what to do next, you should consider having a psychic reading with Lily (BWC Psychic Medium) who can honestly tell you if this relationship will last. She may also have advice on what you could do next.

Divorce Candle Spell  

 Are you in a relationship that isn’t working? You might still have feelings for your partner but wish for a break up maybe because the other person wants it too. Or because you know it is for the best for both of you long term. This is a candle spell for the person who would like a divorce while the other party is resistant. This is more of a standard witchcraft/hoodoo style spell.

  1. Obtain male and female figure candles.
  2. Place them back-to-back, ready to go in opposite directions.
  3. Dress them with breakup oil
  4. For instance, burn them for thirty minutes at a time.
  5. Next day, before lighting the candles again, move them farther apart. When they are finally as far apart as space will allow, let the candle burn entirely.

SOUR JAR

You should also consider creating a “sour jar” to help cause issues in the relationship. This can be a physical bottle or traditionally inside something like a lemon. 

Breakup or Separation Magick

Hoodoo Style: To Break Up a Couple

(From Mules and Men by Zora Neale Hurston)

Take nine needles; break each needle in three pieces.

Write each person’s name three times on paper.

Write one name backwards and one forwards and lay the broken needles on the paper.

Take five black candles, four red, and three green.

Tie a string across the door from it, suspend a large candle upside down. It will hang low on the door. Bum one each day for one hour. If you burn your first in the daytime, keep on in the day; if at night, continue at night. A tin plate with paper and needles in it must be placed to catch the wax in.

When the ninth day is finished, go out into the street and get some white or black dog dung. A dog only drops his dung in the street when he is running and barking, and whoever you curse will run and bark likewise.

Put it in a bag with the paper and carry it to running water, and one of the parties will leave town.

Ritual for a break-up

Have an object given to you or strongly associated with your partner, something of yours that the partner strongly associates with you and some twine.

Tie a bit of the twine around each object, so there is some string distance between the two.

Think about your relationship with this person, about the reasons you want to leave and how you would like your life to be without this person.

At the most emotional peak, cut the twine between the two objects.

Say:

“With love did we begin this, and with love do I end this.

What connected us is no more, so mote it be!”

Take each object and bury it far away from the other object, while you do this say:

“I plant your heart that new love and direction may grow! So mote it be.”

Set Me Free Break Up Spell

Below is an example of a break Up spell that would begin to set you free from every force binding you to that relationship. You may wish to perform this spell on a Saturday or even a Tuesday. I suggest you perform this spell each week for a complete moon cycle (4 times).

You will need:
• A small square of paper
• A fountain pen filled with black ink (a black ballpoint will do, but a fountain pen is best)
• A white taper candle
• A fireproof dish

Procedures:

  • Write the name of the person you don’t want to be involved with on the paper.
  • Once the ink is dry, light the candle and hold paper in its flame until it starts to burn.
  • Hold the paper in front of you, trying to see the fumes curling round the person and wafting him or her away from you.
  • When you can no longer hold the paper, drop it into the fireproof dish, still seeing the smoke carry him or her away.
  • Take the dish outside to as high a place as possible and with the ashes clasped in your right hand, say some suitable words, such as:

Wind of North, Wind of East,Wind of South, Wind of West,
Take these feelings to where they best be appreciated.
Please let ***** see,That his/her love is not for me.
And let it be done, that it harm no one.

  • The words spoken, unclasp your hand and watch the ashes blow away with the breeze, wishing your old love well as they go.

TIPS & SUGGESTIONS

 More often, you just need to flush the old feelings, to be able to move forward. Energy cleansing work is also recommended for both people (if not just for yourself.)
