Solitary Ritual Honoring Selene and Empowering a Protection Talisman
by Alorer
Grounding:
(Perform the 4-fold breathing exercise to relax. After the final exhale, picture, in your mind’s eye, the Full Moon, brilliant and bright, close to you obscuring everything else. Bathe in the spiritual moonlight (or the physical one, should you perform the ritual outdoors) and prepare for the rest of the ritual.)Cleansing and Consecration:
(Take a bowl of water. Add salt and chant.)
“Salt, Earth’s host, agent of spiritual fate,
with Water, our ancient mother, now mate,
create the mix, the blessed concoction,
make all clean and sacred, with holy devotion.”
(Anoint the forehead, hands and feet with the blessed salt water. Cense the ritual space with the incense and illuminate it via taking a lit candle around the place where the circle will be cast so as to consecrate it.)Circle Casting:
“Maiden, cast your circle white. Weave a web of healing light.
Round and round the circle’s cast, joining present, future, and past.
Mother, cast your circle red. Weave the strands of family threads.
This Sacred Space shall now be bound, as I cast this circle round.
Old Crone, cast your circle black. Weave the wisdom that I lack.
Thrice I cast the circle round, between the worlds my magic bound.”Blessing of Tools:
(Extend hand over each tool and say.)
“Blessed be, tools of the Witch’s trade,
With Will and Magic you have been made,
Blessed be in the Her aspects three,
As I will it, so shall it be!”Calling the Quarters:
“Hail, Guardians of the Eastern Tower. Keep this circle with your power. Spirits of Air, stand your ground. Stay and witness, in our circle round. And until your dismissal I decree, welcome I say unto thee.Hail, Guardians of the Southern Tower. Keep this circle with your power. Spirits of Fire, stand your ground. Stay and witness, in our circle round. And until your dismissal I decree, welcome I say unto thee.
Hail, Guardians of the Western Tower. Keep this circle with your power. Spirits of Water, stand your ground. Stay and witness, in our circle round. And until your dismissal I decree, welcome I say unto thee.
Hail, Guardians of the Northern Tower. Keep this circle with your power. Spirits of Earth, stand your ground. Stay and witness, in our circle round. And until your dismissal I decree, welcome I say unto thee.”
God and Goddess Invocation:
Radiant Selene, hear my plea!
Come to this circle, I invite thee!
Bull-horned rider of the chariot of night,
for honour I call you in this rite,
blessed Goddess, our brilliant Moon,
bring light upon us, as you are Full!
Let your favour flow free,
truly so mote it be!Endymion, lover and handsome lad,
you who with Selene’s light are clad,
her fabled consort, her children’s father,
attend this rite for our heavenly mother!
Hallowed mortal, made undying,
you whose love is always plying.
Let your favour flow free,
truly so mote it be!”Purpose:
“Gods and Spirits, I have called upon you all, to witness this rite, as homage is paid to our Celestial Queen. Selene, Bright Goddess, may the honour I offer to you be satisfactory and worthy of your blessing and favour. And if you will, Mistress of the Night-Sky, provide your energy and power to this talisman, so it may be used in the workings of Magic adequately.”Spell-work:
Purification:
(Place the talisman on the centre of the altar. Sprinkle it with blessed salt water, cense it with the incense, pass it near the candle flame and say.)
“By Earth and Water, Air, Fire,
pure be made, as I desire,
clear of energy, of taint free,
talisman now hollow be.”Purpose:
“Selene, Silver-Haired Goddess, I ask that you lend your power and infuse this talisman with your energy. Let your lunar light fill it and make it strong! Imbue it with your might so it may grant protection of unrivaled strength!”Raising Energy:
(Hold the talisman in your right hand, bring it to your heart and chant.)
“Selene, Selene, Selene,
Bright Moon, Brilliant Light,
Selene, Selene, Selene,
empower this tool on this holy night.” (repeat 7 times)Imbuing:
(Channel energy into the talisman, charging it while saying.)
“By Selene’s favour, grant protection.” (repeat thrice, pause, repeat thrice again for a total of six repeats)Cakes and Wine:
(Take the bread and bless it by saying.)
“Child of Demeter’s seed, your sacrifice seals my work with the Gods. Blessed be.”
(Take the wine and bless it by saying.)
“Child of Dionysus’ fruit, your sacrifice seals my work with the Gods. Blessed be.”
(Eat and drink, then say.)
“Behold, I have feasted along Gods and Spirits, as one of their Kin. We are one. Blessed be and so mote it be.”Thanking the Deities:
“Selene, Bright Mother of Light,
I thank you for your aid this night,
now farewell I bid to thee,
until another meeting, blessed be!Endymion, Lover and Blessed Lad,
I thank you for attending, with light clad,
now farewell I bid to thee,
until another meeting, blessed be!”Releasing the Quarters:
“Guardians of the East, thank you for witnessing this merry rite and depart before the end of the night. Spirits of Air, away now soar, leave for the Veil’s other shore.Guardians of the North, thank you for witnessing this merry rite and depart before the end of the night. Spirits of Earth, away now soar, leave for the Veil’s other shore.
Guardians of the West, thank you for witnessing this merry rite and depart before the end of the night. Spirits of Water, away now soar, leave for the Veil’s other shore.
Guardians of the South, thank you for witnessing this merry rite and depart before the end of the night. Spirits of Fire, away now soar, leave for the Veil’s other shore.”
Opening the Circle:
“Circle cast, now be unbound,
no longer tread this space around.
The Circle opened, never broken,
the place mundane, is made again.”Source: http://rootsofritual.wordpress.com/solitary-ritual-honoring-selene-and-empowering-a-protection-talisman/

What Can A Ball Of Energy Do For You?
What Can A Ball Of Energy Do For You?
Posted by Nicole Lanning on January 31, 2013 at 8:55 AM
What can a ball of energy do for you? A lot of things actually! This topic came to light in one of our seminars, and what a perfect time to have all of those who attended walk through the exercise I will give you now to see what a ball of energy can do for you!
The first thing you have to do is focus, visaulize, and create your own ball of energy. Some will do this in your mind while others will work with this in the palm of their hands. Either is fine, as it is about fidning what resonates best for your energy to create this to work with!
Now that you have this created, let’s take a moment to explore what you have created. What color is your ball of energy? What about the shape? Does it look like a baketball, egg shaped, or maybe it has a special curve to your ball of energy. What about its size? How does it feel to you? Positive or nuetral for the vibrational output? If it doesn’t feel like a positive ball of energy ready to burst with this healing power for you work with changing its color, shape or size a bit. Maybe it needs a texture on this as well. You have to work with this to get your own energy ball as high and vibrant as you need it to be.
From here it is about how to use our ball of energy we have created. You have this as high and vibrant as you need it, so let’s work on tuning down the vibrational limit now and adding the swirled colors of pink and green. You will want to get your ball of energy to the point where it feels like it is slowly pulsating like a heart beat. Once you get this to this point, you will then want to place this at your heart level for the healing energy. Some will place this in their heart chakra or higher heart chakra, but you can simply see this at your heart or general area for your healing of this area.
Now let’s say you are dealing with pain in your leg. We will now take this ball of energy and change the color again and move this to your leg area where you are experiencing pain. You will want to see this follow the pattern of your body and move slowly through this to your leg area. It is not about picking it up and throwing it there or a sudden movement, but rather a slow even flowing pattern for the healing energy. Allow this to settle where the pain is and change the color, shape, size, and pattern appropriately for each new area.
For each new area you can simply move this around your body. For chakra points you can correspond them to the appropriate colors. For the physical body points you can use general healing colors or a pure white and golden swirl for healing if you wish to have this provide general types of energy for your body. Make sure to dissipate the energy ball back into your energy fields when you have completed working with it by seeing this slowly melt into all of the energy flows. Make sure you also take a moment to take a deep breath in and give thanks for the work that had been completed.

SELF HEALING: REBALANCING YOUR OWN CHAKRA SYSTEM
Another powerful self-healing technique you will find very beneficial, in your life, is
to rebalance your own chakra system. You can use a simplified version of the powerful Chios Chakra System Rebalancing Technique: You first “read” your own chakra system, to determine which chakras are out of balance, and then use visualization of lower or higher colors to bring the activity level of each chakra that is out of balance back into balance with the others. Proceed as follows:
1 - Lie down comfortably, with your arms at your sides, and close your eyes.
2 - Now perform an intuitive reading to check your own chakra system’s state of balance. First visualize the outline of your own body profile. Briefly and effortlessly localize your awareness on an outline of your own body, as seen from the side, and a rainbow shell of color above it, from your 1st chakra (where the rainbow is red), to the 7th chakra top (where the rainbow is violet). (See diagram). Visualize this complete image in the active phase, knowing you will soon get information about which of your chakras are unbalanced.
3 - Now release into the receptive phase. Notice any changes in the overall shape of the rainbow shell (your seven chakra fields). Which of your chakras are unbalanced, with an activity level that is too high or low? You will see overactive chakras as “bumps” and underactive chakras as “dips” (see diagram).You can repeat the active/receptive cycle again, performing several rounds, if that assists you in gaining a full image of your chakra system with this information.
4 – Now rebalance your own chakra system. Begin with the lowest chakra in need. If the chakra is underactive (a “dip”), visualize, sense and become a cloud of the next higher color surrounding that chakra. For an underactive second chakra, for example, you will visualize a cloud of yellow around your second chakra, to raise its activity level. If you sense a stronger raising action is needed, you will visualize a cloud of green, etc. For an overactive third chakra, for example, you will visualize a cloud of orange around your third chakra, to lower its activity level. If you sense a stronger lowering action is needed, you will visualize a cloud of red, etc. Rebalance your chakra system by raising or lowering the activity of all chakras which require it—usually this will be at least two of your chakras and it may be three or even four chakras. Each chakra may require one, two or even three color steps above or below, to bring it back into balance.
5 – That’s it!
Rebalancing your own chakra system can have far-reaching self-healing effects. We all are “out of balance” in some way, and this is often reflected in our lives and the challenges we face. When you heal your own chakra system—by charging and rebalancing your own chakras—you are working “at the root of the problem.” It will give you great strength to make the changes you need to make, in your outer life.Source: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=420510344698656&set=a.118590771557283.27853.118586161557744&type=1

Four Sacred Medicines -‘Muskiiki’
Tobacco is the first plant that the Creator gave to the Anishinabe people. Three other plants: sage, cedar and sweetgrass are held sacred by the people. Together they are referred to as the four sacred medicines (Muskiiki). The four sacred medicines are used in everyday life and in all of our ceremonies. All of them can be used to smudge with, though sage, cedar and sweetgrass also have many other uses. It is said that tobacco sits in the eastern door, sweetgrass in the southern door, sage in the west and cedar in the north. Elders say that the spirits like the aroma produced when the other sacred medicines are burned.
Sacred tobacco was given to the Anishinabe so that we can communicate with the Spirit world. Tobacco is always offered before picking other medicines. When you offer tobacco to a plant and explain your reasons for being there, the plant will let all the plants in the area know your intentions and why you are picking them. Tobacco is used as an offering, a gift, and is an important part of Anishinabe ceremonies.
TobaccoSage is used to prepare our people for ceremonies and teachings. Because it is more medicinal and stronger than sweetgrass, sage is used more often in ceremonies. Sage is used for releasing what is troubling the mind and for removing negative energy. It is also used for cleansing homes and sacred bundles carried by people. It also has other medicinal uses.
SageSweetgrass is the sacred hair of Mother Earth. Its sweet aroma reminds our people of the gentleness, love and kindness she has for the people. When sweetgrass is used in a healing circle it has a calming effect. Like sage and cedar, sweetgrass is used for smudging and purification.
SweetgrassLike Sage and Sweet grass, cedar is used to purify the home, it also has many restorative medicinal use. When mixed with sage for a tea, it cleans the body of all infections, cedar baths are also very healing. When cedar mixed with tobacco is put in the fire it crackles, this is said to call the attention of the Spirits (manitous) to the offering that is being made. Cedar is used in sweat lodge and fasting ceremonies for protection, cedar branches cover the floor of many sweat lodges and some people make a circle of cedar when they are fasting. It is a guardian spirit and chases away the bad spirits.

Sweetgrass is in the South and connected to Mother Earth. It has a shiny and beautiful side as well as a plain side, representative of youth. When sweetgrass is braided, it cannot be pulled apart. Likewise when your body, mind and spirit are solidly connected, you will be full and strong in your personal life. Red is the colour, summer is the season and youth is the stage of life.

Sage is in the West. As we move into the adult stage of our lives, we always exit through the West and sage assists in that journey. The smell of sage is intended to attract the spirits’ attention. Black is the colour, fall is the season and adulthood is the stage of life.
