| To consecrate and dedicate an altar 1.First find a place where want your altar. Use some quiet meditational music if there is some available.The more energy and work that you put into your altar, the more magickal energy it will take on. 2.Take a smudge wand of Sage and light it, begin to clear and cleanse the air around the altar.Keep the thoughts of Love and Light in your mind. 3.Next move towards the four elements and ask for their guidance. North =Earth South = Fire East = Air West = Water Around = Spirit 4.Ask for their blessings and honor their assistance. 5.Begin to set up the altar, placing each item you wish on the altar gently and reverently. On your altar can be anything you wish, anything! Some altars are outside, some are inside. Some are clean and orderly, while others are cluddered with anything and everything around them. Yet, you must keep this place of sacredness, honorable to the God and Goddess. You may wish to use two 7 day candles (buy at 99 cent store) to represent the ever presence of the God and Goddess in your life. Black for God, White for Goddess. Red of fire, incense for Air, small bowl of water for west, and something of the Earth for North. Once your altar is set up the way you want it, spend a few moments in quiet meditation thinking about what this altar means to you. Now, allow the altar to fill you with its magick and energy. Feel the magick around you. Breathe in the Love and Light from the Lord and Lady. Visual yourself revitalized because of it's presence. See yourself becoming more healthy, whole, and wise. Now, visualize healing for someone else, maybe someone you do not even know. Send them Love and Light. When you are ready to end your dedication and consecration ritual, sound the bell once again, thanking all elements for their presence and assistance. Send them back to their humble abode harming none on their way. Now, thank the Lord and Lady for their presence in your life. Take a deep breath of the fresh magick around you and repeat: So mote it be! It is done! Allow the Lord and Lady candles to burn constantly, replacing them week after week, month after month, year after year. |
