New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| Color of the day: Green
Incense of the day: Carnation For this spell, find an appropriate stick-it should be about twelve inches long and a half inch in diameter. Ideally, find a twig that has fallen from a tree. If you must cut one, be sure to give thanks to the tree for the gift. Bless the stick with each of the four elements. Pass it through incense smoke for air, through a candle flame for fire, and sprinkle it with salt water for both water and earth elements. Say any words of blessing that you choose. Decorate the stick with ribbons, feathers, beads, and so on by tying them around the top. Hold the stick in your hand as you pray or meditate. You can also stick it in the ground outside and sit before it. On a breezy day the wind will move the ribbons and feathers and you can meditate on this movement. |
