There are lots of witchy ways to cope with heartbreak and move on from an ex. Witchy self-love rituals can reconnect you with your independence. They might even open you up to new love after a break-up.

Even when you know it’s for the best, break-ups can be really difficult. The grieving process that takes place after a relationship comes to an end takes time.

How long does it take to get over your ex?

Whether you’re into witchy rituals or not, the amount of time it takes to get over an ex totally depends on the person and situation. How long was the relationship? How emotionally attached were you to the person?

Some research shows that healing from a long-term relationship can take a year or two. It could take about six months to heal from a shorter relationship. The sting of a fling could pass in a few weeks, although there is no official timeline of how long it takes to move on. Can releasing toxic ties with witchcraft shorten this time? You’re the only one who will know what makes your heart heal.

What are some ways to heal from a break-up?

There are lots of practical things you can do to start your post-break-up healing journey before you embrace your inner witch. They can make your magical practices even stronger.

Tie up loose ends that’ll make it easier to cut contact with an ex. This might mean giving them back their t-shirts or deciding who is going to keep the cat.

Get rid of reminders of your ex in your daily life. Mute or block them on social media. Clear photos of them from your phone. Donate any gifts they’ve given you.

Make a list of things that make you feel good. When you’re feeling low, you can break out the list. Some suggestions are taking a walk, calling a friend, or watching your fave movie.

Why use magic to heal from heartbreak?

Witchcraft and other mystical practices help you tap into your inner power. It’s a way to work with the energy that’s all around you.

You don’t have to label yourself as a witch or follow a specific faith to connect with your own instinctive magic. Spells, rituals, and spiritual healing tools are relevant to anyone who is open to them!

What spells and rituals can help you get over your ex?

Cord-cutting ritual for breakups

An “unbinding ritual” can break an energetic tie with someone. All you really need for this ritual is a pair of scissors and some cord, like twine or cotton string. Take it somewhere outdoors where you can quietly meditate, like a park or nature area. Visualize yourself and your ex in the energy realm, and a cord attaching you to each other. When you’re ready, imagine the cord cut in half and feel yourself pulling back all the energy that belongs to you. Then, take your scissors, cut the cord in half, bury the cut cord in the dirt, and leave immediately.

Heart-healing spiritual bath for breakups

A spiritual bath can help cleanse away some of the heartache of a breakup. Fill your bathtub with plenty of epsom salts. Add some fresh or dried rose petals to your bath if you have some. Roses represent love and strong boundaries. You can also light white, pink, or green candles at your bath, and set out crystals like rose quartz.

As you take your bath, meditate on your own strength. Think of the qualities in yourself that you’re proud of and the person you are outside of your relationship. Remind yourself that this heartache is temporary, even if it feels it’ll last forever. As your bath drains, visualize the sadness, fear, and heartache washing away down the drain.

What other witchy tools can help with break-ups?

Rhodochrosite or rose quartz crystals: These pink-hued stones are perfect for soothing heartache.

Roses: To soften the hard edges of a breakup, put a bouquet of red roses in your house. You can also wear rose perfume, diffuse rose oil, or steep dried rose petals in tea.

Candles: Lighting a flame can be symbolic of connecting with your inner fire and initiating momentum. Use white candles for new beginnings, black candles for getting rid of negativity, and green candles for heart healing. Pink candles are for self-love and blue candles for speaking your truth.

Full moons: If you’re ready to let go or move on, the days around a full moon can energetically support you.

You can get through this breakup!

While break-ups can feel overwhelming, you have the power to heal from heartache and transform into a new version of yourself. There’s no better time to tap into your inner witch and remember the baddie that you are.
