Web Weaver Spell

It is the first day of spring, truly a time for something new and great to happen. I’ve written the perfect ritual. I’ve used some things I’ve been thinking about, some stones and animal totems (which I’ll post about). I’d be happy to share it.

Part one: Casting the Circle
You can do this in any way you wish. I myself use ceremonial, or high, magick (which means I call a Goddess I have had experience with into each corner), and I set my altar in the west to honor my patron Goddess and Goddess of Attraction, and it is also my hearth. Casting a circle is personal, and I adapt it to my ritual purpose as well. You can do this however you wish. (If you don’t know how, many articles and books can help you.) Gather your items before starting, make sure you are clean (I shower and scrub with sea salt), calm and clear minded.

Light a red candle in the South.
“Guardians of the watchtower of the South, be with me in my rite. Goddess Pele, hail and welcome. Fill me with passion and fire.”

Light a yellow candle in the East.
“Guardians of the watchtower of the East, be with me in my rite. Goddess Brighid, hail and welcome. Fill me with the spark of inspiration.”

Light a green candle in the North.
“Guardians of the watchtower of the North, be with me in my rite. God Odin and Goddess Freya, hail and welcome. Keep me grounded and humble.”

Light a blue candle on the altar in the West.
“Guardians of the watchtower of the West, be with me in my rite. Goddess Aphrodite, hail and welcome. Fill me with the serenity and the magick of the depths of the oceans.”

Carve the circle with your athame, wand, hands or other tool. I used a pointed piece of rose quartz that had sat on my altar for a month. (Normally used for scrying, it told me it was the right time for this ritual.)
“I cast this circle to keep me free from all negativity, and anything that will work against me and my purpose.” (4x)

Smudge your circle. I use incense and a feather from my familiar animal.
“I cleanse this circle of all negativity, and anything that will work against me and my purpose.” (4x)

The circle is cast.
Cleanse your stones in a glass container, in pure water with a piece of Obsidian. (“I cleanse these stones from their previous purpose.”) Use a magickal number, like 3, 7 or 9.

Now for your ritual.
Take a thin piece of thread or floss, and begin tying the stones you have selected for the ritual, to represent different people (known or strangers). (Stones set in jewelry are perfect for this.)
“I weave this web, to bring together the people I need, so I may help them ___________ and they may help me ____________.” Recite this for each stone tied.
Place in a satchel and tie shut.

Close the circle.
With your tool first, the opposite direction.
“I close this circle. May the circle be closed, but unbroken.”
Snuff the incense.

Snuff the blue candle. Guardians of the watchtower of the West, Goddess Aphrodite, hail and farewell.

Snuff the green candle. Guardians of the watchtower of the North, God Odin and Goddess Freya, hail and farewell.

Snuff the yellow candle. Guardians of the watchtower of the East, Goddess Brighid, hail and farewell.

Snuff the red candle. Guardians of the watchtower of the South, Goddess Pele, hail and farewell.

Carry your satchel with you to work, in your pocket. Sleep with it under your pillow. Meditate with it.
