assembled the following:(*denotes items prepared prior)
Marking Out Circle
I measured out the circle with my red magickal cord ,the 4 points can be marked with apples
i then took a few minutes to ground and center
Casting The Circle
I then cast the circle, as we are in Australia i move anticlock wise to follow the path of the sun. I started in the south as Earth is the important element in this healing spell
I used salt to mark out the circumferance of the circle - salt is cleansing of course and it is also of the element Earth which corresonds to skin for healing
I used a very simple casting rite,3 times i moved around the circle, chanting,
"I cast this circle thrice about to keep unwanted spirits out"
I just used my finger and imagined white energy pouring forth from it to form our magickal space
Calling Quarters
Again i kept it very simple,
Taking the salt again from the altar i went to the southern point and held it aloft
"Spirits of the South and Earth, I invite you to our Magick rite...."
I paused here, 'seeing' them arrive,then bowed in acknowledgment.."Welcome"
I then went once around the circle sprinkling salt.
Taking the incense i repeated the procedure at the east point...
"Spirits of the East and Air...."
Next the North and Fire (with the red candle -lit of course)
and finally with the water, West and Water.
Call Dieties
"God of the Sun and Goddess of the Moon
I call on you to join our rite and help in our healing"
Light the Large white Diety Candle. ( of course you may choose two,one for god and one for goddess but i prefer to combine them as that is my vision of the diety -male and female in one form,both equal -and so i dont want to light one or the other 'first')
Next I lit the green healing candle on the altar
Then the Personal healing candle
