Cast Circle with wand, athame, sword, or finger
I consecrate this circle
to the Ancient Ones
May they manifest here
and bless their child
Facing Altar
This is a time that is not a time,
In a place that is not a place,
On a day that is not a day,
I stand at the threshold between the Worlds,
May the ancient One's
Help and protect me on my journey
Sing forth the power
Facing East: brush head, heart and throat with feather
Sweetest Paraldla, Mistress of Air
I ask you to
Send your Sylphs
Blow away the negative of the day
Bless me with dreams of wisdom
as I rest this night
Facing South: brush head heart and throat with candle
Powerful Djin, Master of Fire
I ask you to
Send your Salamanders
Burn away the negative of the day
May I have brave dreams
as I rest this night
Facing West: brush head heart and throat with Water
Refreshing Niska, Mistress of Water
I ask you to
Send your Nymphs
Cleanse away the negative of the day
May I have peaceful dreams
as I rest this night
Facing North: brush head heart and throat with Salt or Something of the Earth
Magnificent Ghom, Master of Earth
I ask you to
Send your gnomes
Bury the negative of the day
May I have loving dreams
as I rest this night
Facing Alter: Raise your hands palms up to waist level
My Lady Goddess, Mistress of All
To you I give my thanks
Your blessing are abundant and true
May I sleep well this night
So tomorrow
I can continue to sing with you
Here you can insert a special prayer you have found, after words meditate a bit, or simply sit and space out same thing. Please remember to keep you palms up.
Standing back up, if you were sitting, pull you hands to shoulder level keeping the palms up, circle them around to the front until you are hugging yourself, with palms up, inhale flip you hands and feel yourself pushing the day into the earth by lowering you hands as you see fit.
The sun has set
the air will cool
We've much to learn
We've much to teach
Before our final rest
So mote it be!!
Close your circle, then go have a nice cup of tea, and a shower it can be just a rinsing shower if you take you shower in the mornings, no need to use soap, but use hot water to cleanse the Aura
Before doing this ritual please make sure you have all the things needed. I say this because I hate having to leave the circle so that I can go and get the things I need.
In the Earth blessing I use a dried flower and Iris, because using salt after the water itches and the dirt made mud which, itched to.
There is no need to call the elements in casting your circle, drawing it is fine.
As with all the rituals in the Book of Shadows, I have made the page simple so that it is easier to copy and paste to Word or just to print it out, but I recommend the first option.
I dedicate these pages to my husband, without his love and support I would not be what
I am today.
I love you!!! I love you!!! I love you!!! suniei on't'ol.
