To help speed recovery from an illness, write the sick person's name on a white human shaped candle of the correct gender.
As you anoint it with 3 drops of myrrh or mint oil, visualize healing energy in the form of white light flowing from your hands and 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 magickal 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 person in the photograph, willing him/her to be well again.
Then recite:
"Magick Mend, and candle burn,
Sickness End, good health return"
Continue to focus and recite until the candle burns out on it's own.
(At this point I suggest taking the remains of the candle, wrapping it in clean white cotton and burying it outside therefore burying the sickness)
