To
Ease Pain and Renew Hope
(Author
Unknown)
This
spell can be performed to ease the pain of a broken
relationship, divorce, death of a loved one or other painful
circumstance and to build and renew a sense of hope in the
future. The ingredients you will need are:
One
Black Candle
3 Pieces of Amethyst
Vetivert Oil
One White Candle
3 Pieces of Rose Quartz
Lotus Oil
At
Sunset on the night of the Full Moon, take the Black Candle
and inscribe with a short description of your problem, i.e.
divorce, break-up, death, etc. Annoint the Candle with
Vetivert oil and charge it. Set the candle in a holder on your
altar. Take the three pieces of amethyst and hold in your
hand. Visualize your pain and pour it into the stones. Place
the stones in a circle around the base of the candle holder
and light the candle. Visualize the pain leaving you. Allow
the candle to burn down one third of the way and then
extinguish. Take one of the pieces of amethyst outside. Hold
it into your hand and again see and feel your pain
transferring to the stone. Then take the stone and throw it
from you with all your might. Never take this stone up again.
Repeat this spell for the next two nights, until the candle
has completely burned down, and the amethyst stones are gone.
Take any remaining wax from the candle and bury off of your
property.
At
Sunrise on the morning of the New Moon, take the White Candle
and inscribe with the word "hope". Annoint the
candle with Lotus oil and charge it. Set the candle in a
holder on your altar. Take the three pieces of rose quartz and
hold in your hand. Visualize a positive future for yourself.
See yourself living, laughing, and enjoying life. Place the
stones in a circle around the base of the candle holder and
light the candle. Visualize and feel a strong sense of hope
and expectancy coming to you. Allow the candle to burn down
one third of the way and then extinguish. Repeat this spell
for the next two nights, until the candle has completely
burned down. Take the rose quartz pieces and place one in your
purse, pocket, medicine bag, or amulet to be carried with you.
Place another by a window sill in a sunny room. Take the last
piece and bury it by a tree in your yard as an offering. If
you don't have a yard, you may bury it in a flower pot or
plant in your home or place outside the entrance of your home.
Be
patient...it takes time for pain to come to an end, but this
spell will set you well on your way.

A
Ritual to Heal the Oceans
(Excerpts
from Scott Cunningham's Earth, Air, Fire & Water)
This
is a rite for the oceans of the world. Despite modern
knowledge concerning the fragility of our oceans, pollution
continues. If you have an opportunity to do so, go to
the beach at least once just to perform this ritual. If
not, perform this rite at home. This isn't a time for
private, personal spells. This is a time of giving to
the oceans: of lending them the strength to survive.
Walk
into the water. Contact the element. Get wet (you
needn't swim). Then sit on the sand.
Flow
from one visualisation to the next. Maintain each for as
long as you can before continuing on.
*Visualise
a sparkling clean ocean, free of pollution. The moon shines
onto it, scattering silver light upon it's vast expanse.
Waves break as they approach you, each strong and pure and
clean. The foam glows with blue-green light.
*Visualise
the swells that create waves, formed in distant places.
Feel their power, visualise them as being strong and pure and
clean.
*Visualise
a beach on a hot summer day. See people taking their
trash with them. Visualise the oceans as being strong
and pure and clean.
*Visualise
a harbour bustling with ships. See their owners and all
who sail on the sea refusing to pollute the water.
Visualise the oceans as being strong and pure and clean.
*Visualise
a city by the ocean. See its factories refusing to
discharge toxics into the water. Visualise the oceans as
being strong and pure and clean.
*Visualise
our planet as seen from space. See its inhabitants as
ocean-loving creatures, surrounded by water. Visualise
its oceans as being strong and pure and clean.
*Visualise
a sparkling clean ocean, free of pollution. The sun
shines onto it, brightening its vast expanse. Waves
break as they approach, each strong and pure and clean.
The foam whitely glistens. Fish swim beneath its surface
through clear water. Crabs scatter on surf-splashed
rocks. Coral polyps build reefs. Dolphins and
seals dance through the waves. Whales echo their calls.
Restless sharks maneouvre through the depths. Seaweed
waves in shadowy spendour .... and throughout the world, we
finally realise that the ocean is our mother, and that we'll
take care of her.
Following
the visualisation, touch the water once again.

Spell
to Protect and Heal our Planet
(Excerpts
from Scott Cunningham's Earth, Air, Fire & Water)
|
Correspeondences
Colours: Brown and green Candles are not recommended).
Herbs:
Collect a few leaves or flowers from the wild plants
that grow in your area. Collect with love.
Stones:
Simple rocks that you find on the ground or in
riverbeds. Mined stones of all kinds (including quartz
crystals) are not recommended.
Ritual
Forms: visualization, charging stones and placing in
ground, charging seedlings and planting them.
Symbol:
Solar cross in a circle.
Other
Tools: Color photo of the Earth from space.
This
rite is designed to give energy back to the Earth. Light
no candles. Burn no incense. Go to the wilds to perform
this spell, a place far from the haunts of humans. If
this is impossible, work this rite in your place of
magick. There, have a potted plant or four plain stones.
(Again,
don't use mined quartz.)
Sit
on the ground. Place your hands onto the dirt beneath
you (or onto the plant or stones, if inside). Visualize
the Earth from space as a bluish-white sphere of
positive, whole, healed energy. Experience it as a
living organism.
When
you are ready, say these or similar words:
“Pure
are the caves and plains;
Pure
are the sod and hills;
Pure
are the winds and skies;
Pure
are the lakes and rills;
Pure
are the clouds and rains;
Pure
are the woods and trees;
Pure
are the valleys deep;
Pure
are the bays and seas.”
Renew
your visualization, then begin again:
“Pure
are the birds that fly;
Pure
are the hounds and bats;
Pure
are the fish and whales;
Pure
are the hares and cats;
Pure
are the owls and snakes;
Pure
are the stags and deer;
Pure
are the lizards green;
Pure
are all creatures here.”
Once
again, renew your visualization. Feel the Earth.
Block all thoughts of ravages that our species has
subjected to our planet. See the Earth as a healed,
whole being. Then say these or whatever words come to
mind:
“As
I receive your energy, now receive mine.”
Pour
your personal power out through your palms and into the
Earth (or the stones or plant). Gently send it
spiralling down into our planet, lending it strength to
survive. Willingly give of yourself for a few moments
while visualizing that shining blue planet hanging in
space.
After
a few moments, end the ritual by lifting your hands and
standing. (If performing this rite indoors, place the
stones or the potted plant onto the ground outside to
allow the Earth to absorb the energy.)
It
is done.

Healing
the Rainforests
(Author
unknown)
|
Cast
a circle
Invoke
elements by calling upon them in protective aspects (for
example, you might invoke Watchfires or Beacons in the
South).
Chant
the names of the Earth Goddess, beginning with your
personal favorites, then naming as many as you can think
of.
Take
a piece of green string. Begin to tie knots in it, while
chanting:
"Tying
the Cord, Renewing the Earth;
We are Her Children, bringing Rebirth".
(The
knots may be simple or elaborate, but leave enough
string to tie together at the end.) As you chant, see
the world as a network of connected systems. Breathe the
air that comes from the jungles of South America. Feel
the living fire of an ocelot's power. Taste the rain on
the leaves at the tops of the trees. Feel the delicate
structure of the soil at the forest floor.)
Tie
the cord together in a loop; hold it up, strung around
your two hands, and begin chanting:
"We
are the Flow and we are the Ebb;
We are the Weavers, we are the Web."
As
you chant, see yourself standing guard over the borders
of the rainforest. See yourself with others, protecting
rainforest as you would protect yourself, because that's
what you're doing.
Bury
the cord in a container of earth. Earth the power; thank
the Deities and elements; open the circle. Later bury
the cord in the forest if possible.
(If
circumstances make the above impossible):
Sit
quietly and see: the network of ecosystems that make up
the world; the rainforests thriving; plants and animals
breeding; the Earth, green and filled with life;
yourself, standing guard. Breathe, and know that the air
comes from the sea and the jungles of Brazil. Drink and
know that the water has been around the world, and
circulates through you as it does through the air, land,
and sea. Stand up and stretch; the strength of your body
is the Earth's strength.

Winter
Spell against World Hunger
(from
Dorothy Morrison's Everyday Magic)
|
waxed paper |
large spoon |
|
|
1 large jar peanut
butter |
knife |
|
|
1 small bag wild
birdseed |
yarn needle |
|
|
large microwave- |
thin green ribbon |
|
|
proof bowl |
or yarn |
|
Cover the work area
with waxed paper. Empty the peanut butter into the bowl.
Put the bowl into the microwave oven for one minute, checking
and stirring the peanut butter every twenty seconds.
Remove it from the microwave and stir in the birdseed, adding
it a little at a time. Continue adding birdseed until
stirring becomes difficult.
Turn out the 'dough'
onto the waxed paper, and shape it into a rectangle
approximately a half inch thick. Wrap the dough in waxed
paper and place in the freezer for one hour.
After an hour, the
dough will have 'set' well enough to cut easily. (If
not, return it to the freezer and check it every fifteen to
twenty minutes.) Cut the dough into 2-inch squares.
Thread the needle with
the yarn or ribbon. Draw the needle though the centre
top of a square, then cut the ribbon, leaving about 8 inches
of length. Continue the process until each square has a
ribbon through it. Return the squares to the freezer and
leave them for 24 hours.
The next day, take the
squares outside and tie them to tree branches for the birds to
eat. When the last one is tied, open your arms to the
sky and chant to the Sun and Sky:
I
feed the birds a festive meal.
I
nourish them with foodstuffs real.
And
as they find this pleasant feast
So
will my human siblings eat.
Remove
the hunger from all life
So
that Your human children thrive.
Give
them plenty - fill them up
With
nourishing food on which to sup.
Kill
starvation, it must die
This
I will - by Sun and Sky! |
