Powers above,
Powers to Side,

Chant to Seal a Spell
Earth, Air, Fire
& Water
By the Dawn of the East
The Twilight of the West
The Black Midnight of North
By Yew, Hawthorn and Rowan
By the Law of Knowledge
By the Law of True Falsehoods
The Law of Balance
So Mote it Be!
To Charge w/ the Elements:
I call Earth
to bind my spell
Air to speed it's travel well
Bright as Fire shall it glow
Deep as tide of Water flow.
Count the Elements, four-fold,
In the fifth the spell shall hold.
For Visions
Although this spell is ideally performed on a lonely beach, it works as well on the home fire hearth. Anyone familiar with Dione Fortunes books will recognize the source!
Take the twigs of the Juniper tree.
Cross them, cross them, cross them.
Look into the coals of the Fire of Azrael.
Three woods are wanted for the Fire of Azrael. The first of these is cedar, the second juniper and the third being sandalwood.
On the first night of the full moon, when its at its highest peak, lay the fire pyramid shaped according to the ancient custom, invoking the Dark Angel of the Doors that he will permit thee entrance. Then gaze deeply into the embers of the dying fire and see therein your vision.
To Receive Nature’s Aid:
In the Spring, make an amulet and inside put fine dirt. Wear this about your neck. Wear a loose, flowing robe of green. Do not bind up your hair, wear shoes or any kind of cosmetic or artificial scent. Take a small tree you have purchased or some seeds and go to a large open field. Carry a large container of water with you and water some of the flowers in the field. Then plant the tree or seeds, water them and say:
I feel power all around me –
The great movement of the universe.
And I see the mighty and the miniature
Miracles about me.
Then I must also feel and see
The insignificance of human frame
And the limits of my power.
Yet I see my place among the
Flowers and the creatures of the field.
And so I kneel in obedience
And give myself to you.
Then lie flat in the clearing and after a period of meditation, arise and
put a mark of dust upon your forehead. Find three leaves and put them in your
hair. Sleep that night with the window open. Good favor should be gained.
