When it’s reminding us to treat people better than we have in the past, guilt can be a helpful guide. This spell will help you start to let go of the impulse to feel guilt when you make decisions that honor your values.
Real talk: guilt isn’t always bad. When it’s reminding us to
treat people better than we have in the past, guilt can be a helpful guide.
But the dominant culture knows we want to be better, and encourages us to
overextend ourselves by taking too much responsibility for other people’s feelings.
This spell will help you start to let go of the impulse
to feel guilt when you make decisions that honor your values.

Make Magic:
When we think about the example we're setting,
it's easier to align with our values.
It's easier to think about who we want to be in the world,
rather than who we've been conditioned to be in the world,
and to stop feeling bad about making self-honoring choices.
