💔 A Healing Spell After a Breakup — Release, Repair & Reclaim Your Energy
Breakups hurt in places we didn’t know had nerve endings. Whether it ended suddenly or slowly fizzled out, love leaves a mark. And when it’s gone? You need time, space… and a little bit of magic to begin mending your heart.
This healing spell for emotional release is crafted specifically for those recovering from a romantic relationship breakup. It’s nurturing, empowering, and meant to help you gently untangle your energy from theirs — so you can begin to feel like you again.
No need for perfection. Just presence, intention, and a bit of witchy tenderness. 🕯️
🌘 Best Moon Phase: Waning Moon
The waning moon supports letting go, releasing, and emotional clearing — making it the perfect lunar energy for this spell.
Don’t worry if your timing doesn’t line up. Your intention is the most powerful tool here.
✨ What You’ll Need:
- 1 pink candle (or white for universal healing)
- A small bowl of rose petals (fresh or dried)
- A piece of rose quartz (for compassion), obsidian (to sever energetic ties), and/or rhodonite (for emotional balance)
- Dried lavender or a few drops of lavender oil (soothing)
- A mirror (small is fine)
- Pen and paper
- Optional: a warm bath or foot soak before or after your ritual

🪄 The Spell: Release & Reclaim
- Set the space
Light your candle. Hold your crystals gently in your hands. Take a deep breath and feel your body soften. - Create your circle
Sprinkle your rose petals in a loose circle or heart shape on your altar or floor. This is your safe space. - Write your release
On the paper, write their name and a sentence about what you’re letting go of (e.g., “I release the pain of this breakup,” or “I let go of what no longer serves my heart.”) - Mirror moment
Hold the mirror. Look yourself in the eye and speak the following out loud:
“I am whole without what broke me.
I call my love back to me.
I bless the past and break the tie.
I choose myself. I rise. I rise.” - Burn or bury the paper
(Safely) burn the paper in a fire-safe bowl — or tear it and bury it with the rose petals. This is the physical release. - Hold your crystals close
Place your rose quartz near your heart, obsidian near your feet, and rhodonite in your pocket or bra for the next few days. - Close the ritual
Blow out the candle and thank yourself for showing up — not just magically, but emotionally. That’s the real work.
✍️ Don’t Forget Your Grimoire
