You will need: A dark room, preferably a basement and/or a safe place to work outside at night. Both are useful at different times.
For this ritual I am going to introduce you to the concept of elemental power.
You will also need a bowl of water, a candle, and some dirt if you are not in a basement. Your mouth can provide the air. If you want a symbol for Air to help you focus, a Chinese fan works well.
There are no circles in my style. If you feel a need to be protected, find someone else to learn from, this is not a style for punk bitches.
Sit the water and candle in front of you on the floor, light the candle and turn out the lights. It should be pitch black for best results. If you needed dirt, put it in something that feels less mundane than plastic or Styrofoam.
Sit however is most comfortable for you. Or you can lay on your back with the candle somewhere near your head (please be careful, we wouldn’t want you catching your hair on fire would we?).
It is easier to use the items for focusing if you can see them thou.
Start by building up your energy. I hope you will do the exercises form the earlier post before trying this.
It is also a good idea to have what you want in mind, but this can be done just for practice.
Once you have built up your energy, visualize it moving into the 4 elements.
If you are in a basement, send it out into the ground all around you. Then bring it back. It should have taken on a brownish hue, as you visualize it coming back. Thank the element for enhancing your energy.
Do the same with the Candle. Send it into the candle, then bring it back. This time it should be reddish. Thank the element, then move to Air. Either use a fan or other focus, or just breathe and allow the energy to circulate in and out a few times. Thank the element, and finish with water. Send it into the water, then bring it back. It should be slightly blue, or green. Thank the element.
Sometimes I add the Asian Element of wood and do the same process.
Once you have finished you should feel wonderful, and strong. You can use a memorized chant, a picture, a mental image, or anything else you feel will work (personalizing rituals to yourself is key to success), that is a symbol of the target of the ritual.
Send all the energy into the target. Say something along the lines of “Bring (target), bringing harm to no one”. This can be specific, or general. For example ‘me a million dollars’, ‘me my true love’(never a specific person, it never works the way you want), ‘me great fortune and luck in the year ahead’, etc.
If you are using a chant, make sure you remember to mention what you want, and to add that you don’t want anyone to be hurt to make it happen.
Repeat it several times as you are sending the energy into the target, be it an image in your mind, a chant on paper (keeping a mental or tangible object to focus on and send the energy to helps a lot), an actual picture or whatever.
Then, when you have placed all the energy into the object you need to visualize the astral plane. If the target object is a metal image, let it dissolve into the web of the astral. If it is a physical object, burn it (have something ready to put it in) and visualize the smoke moving into the astral.
As soon as it is gone. Get up, turn on the lights, do something very normal, and don’t think about that ritual again.
If you are practicing, just visualize the energy dissipating out of your head, taking all the negativity and fears, and ugly thoughts in there with it. Just like the first exercise I told you.
