Powerful Return to Sender Ritual
A Return to Sender spell is a protective ritual designed to send negative energy or spiritual attacks back to the person who sent them, without malice or additional harm. Here's a powerful yet balanced Return to Sender hex you can use to protect yourself:
Items Needed
Black candle (for protection and banishment)
Mirror (small, handheld or flat mirror)
Salt (for purification and protection)
A piece of paper and black pen
Oil for anointing: Protection oil, castor oil, or olive oil
Herbs:
Black pepper (repels negativity)
Cayenne pepper (to intensify the return energy)
Rosemary (for protection)
A small fire-safe bowl
A lighter or matches
Preparation
Cleanse Your Space: Use incense (like sage, palo santo, or frankincense) to cleanse the area and your tools.
Anoint Your Candle: Dress the black candle with oil, starting from the middle outward while focusing on your intention of protection and returning negative energy to its sender.
Steps
Write Your Petition
On the paper, write:"Return all harmful energy, ill intentions, and spiritual attacks back to their source. May it harm none who are innocent, and may balance be restored."
Fold the paper away from you three times to symbolically send the energy outward.
Create a Protective Circle
Place the mirror flat on a surface, with the reflective side facing up. Surround the mirror with a circle of salt to amplify the protective barrier.Add Herbs
Sprinkle a mixture of black pepper, cayenne, and rosemary around the mirror (outside the salt circle), focusing on their protective and banishing properties.Set the Candle
Place the black candle in the center of the mirror. This will reflect the energy back to its source as it burns.Focus Your Intention
Hold your hands over the setup and say with conviction:"By the power of fire, earth, and air,
Return this energy—beware!
Harm sent to me shall find its way,
Back to its source this very day.
I am protected, strong, and free.
As I will it, so shall it be."Light the Candle
Light the black candle and visualize the negative energy leaving you, traveling into the flame, and then being reflected back by the mirror.Burn the Petition
Carefully burn the petition in the fire-safe bowl, imagining the energy being sealed and sent back to its source. Allow the ashes to cool.Dispose of the Remnants
Scatter the ashes and herbs outside at a crossroads (a symbol of sending things away).
Keep the mirror for future use, but cleanse it with salt water to remove residual energy.
Optional Enhancements
Perform this during a waning moon (for banishment) or on a Saturday (day of protection and endings).
Add protective crystals, like obsidian or black tourmaline, around your circle for extra strength.
This ritual protects you while maintaining balance. It ensures that harm does not return to the sender unless they truly meant you ill. Repeat as needed if attacks persist.
