Frosty Blessings

The magick celebrated at the solstices is perhaps the most ancient of all ritual magicks. Twice a year, when the tilt of the Earth's axis is oriented directly towards or away from the Sun, causing the Sun to appear to reach its northernmost and southernmost extremes. We become both acutely aware of death, as well as our own lives. This is a time to banish the darkness, and remember what might have been if our earthly rites could not help the sun in it's rebirth.

A Spell for banishing... To bring in Needed Changes.

Sit in a quiet place that is special to you. Holding a light colored candle in your hands and visualize the area of your life that this candles energy is needed in. After you light this candle the energy will come to you. It may come right away or when you least expect it. When you are ready recite the spell or use your own words of power:

“This candle I see before me, its color so bright, Holds my needs of change in its light. I call in the forces higher than I To release the energy that is held inside May it work for me in the most correct way, Harming none and helping all as it leaves my stay. I call on thee in perfect trust and love sending me guidance from above. This I make happen and so be it will. Take away this thing that brings me ill. So mote it be.”

Bath For Remembrance and Purification

Steep a tablespoon of Rosemary in a cup of boiling water, and strain out the herb. Add it to you bath water for a reflective and cleansing influence.

Chant to yourself:
“Trice around the circle's bound , Change and memory must be found.”
End with "So Mote it Be!"

It is particularly useful for understanding our angers and passions.
