Sometimes, you need to give yourself a boost in strength.  Use this spell any time you need to prepare for an event  that might make you anxious or fearful. The spell will help  transfer strength energy from the Ailm, a Celtic symbol  that represents strength and endurance. 

If you have mixed  or Christian heritage, this symbol can be very powerful for  you. If you are resistant to Christianity and this no longer  represents a Celtic tie for you, please feel free to draw  any symbol you wish. Make sure that it makes you feel  empowered and that you fully know the meaning behind the  symbol or are confident in the intention behind it. You can  create a Bindrune that calls to you specifically. I am not going  to go into runes, as there are far better Rune Masters than  myself, but you can find some amazing texts and online work  that are solely devoted to this powerful and amazing practice.

Here’s what you’ll need: 

• Pen and piece of paper 

• A red cord, long enough to wrap around your waist a few  times 

• Music that symbolizes “strength and power” to you 

1. Gather your items and go to a quiet place. Begin by drawing  the Ailm, or other power symbol on the paper. Th e Ailm is  a circle with a cross inside pulling from all directions to a  central point of power and sending out in all directions: 

2. Play your strengthening music and allow your body to  move freely to it. If it has words, sing them out loud and try  to push away any other thoughts. Music is used effectively for  chaotic meditation to shake the negative peptides from your  cells.  

3. Then, when you feel the altered state move through you,  take the red cord in your hands. Red is the color of blood,  protection, and vitality. Close your eyes and continue to  dance to the music, with the cord in your hands. Focus on  your intention to strengthen yourself. If it helps, you can repeat this affirmation in your head or out  loud: “I am strong. I am amazing! I am smart and brilliant and  strong!” 

4. When you’re ready, wrap the cord around your wrist and  tie it so it doesn’t fall off. Take the Ailm you drew and place it  in your pocket, on your skin, or hold it strong. 

5. Continue to dance freely to your music and imagine the  cord and Ailm transferring strength energy to your body. See  a powerful red light take over you until you’re completely  covered.  

6. Now say: “The light is a shield. Nothing gets past it” three times. 

7. Release yourself gradually from the spell by slowing down  your dancing and turning off the music when you’re ready. 

8. Keep the Ailm somewhere on you, like a wallet or pocket,  and wear the cord on your wrist. They will hold up the  energetic shield for as long as you need it or until it falls off  naturally.
