Simple spell

As we head into yule some of you will be considering doing a spell. Here is my easy way to create your own spell.

1. Create sacred space-do a full opening of a ritual. Gather all the energies to help you. If you need an ide for ritual check out creating ritual.
2. Anoint a candle-have oil and herbs and rub it on a candle. A simple anointment would be to use pure olive oil and sage. Once anointed light the candle.
3. Do your wish-have the end result in mind and what you want to say written down. Be specific in what you want. Be realistic and make it a goal you are willing to work towards. The spell is to give you extra energy not to just give you what you want. The spell is there to have the gods help you get what you desire.
4. Close the circle-thank your energies. Blow out the candle.
