New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| Color of the day: Coral
Incense of the day: Orchid As the winter winds howl around your door, light a flame to ensure prosperity and well-being throughout the dark half of the year. Bake small, unleavened cakes from oat and barley flour to work a spell of abundance. Steep magical herbs in a vessel of melted snow: heather for remembrance of the ancestors, mistletoe for healing, and juniper to clear unwanted energies. Sprinkle the ritual cakes gently with the herbed water and pass them over the flame while repeating this charm: O gods and goddesses of the sacred Earth, I thank you for your many blessings. Protect me and guide me from step to step. I seek the abundance of the seventh bread And the chalice of the drink of immortality. In respect and honour, may I live in peace and plenty. In the name of the Old Ones With the power of those unseen, This winter charm is done. |
