Well, here it is folks, portions of my B.O.S. The following are just some basic things from my Book of Shadows. Before I go on, I would like to mention a few words. As with all things in life, there are consequences. Needless to say, should you try to cause harm to anyone or anything (even yourself), you will have to pay a price. Anything you do, comes back to you. Please be mindful of the Threefold Law. The following is intended for only good intentions, to manipulate them into something harmful will only result in you being harmed in some way or another. Please do not take my words as a threat, just a warning to please be careful. May all the works you do be for positive and productive means. Brightest Blessings!
Please don't forget to check out the webrings and while you are at it you can sign the my guestbook if you like!
May the Sacred Divine
Keep safe me and mine
May the Lady of the Moon
Attend my rite in moment's soon
May the Lord of the Sky
Attend my rite in a moment's sigh
May the Watchtowers of the East, South,
West and North
Attend my rite and let their protective
powers spill forth
May the Old One's who have gone before
Attend my rite forevermore
Hear my humble plea
I ask for your protection, please send it to me!

1 dark purple candle, brown or a blue candle
1 white candle
1 black candle
Healing incense
Light the white candle first, then the purple/brown
or blue candle and then the black. Then, hold your
pet (if this is not possible, hold a colar or
picture etc of her/him) close to your heart. Then,
chant the following, while visualizing your pet
making a full recovery. Chant the following:
"Lord & Lady, please send healing energies
towards ____'s way.
Let his/her health be renewed day by day.
From this sickness, let ______ fully recover.
Around ______, let no illness hover.
Ease ______'s pain,
Let health be her/his gain."
Keep chanting and visualizing for as long as you
can. On the final repetition, after the last line,
say:
"So mote it be."
Let the candles burn themselves out. This can be
repeated as often as possible. Remember that we
also have the responsibility to seek medical care
for our pets who are stricken with illness, this
spell should be used in conjunction of that
specialized care.
1 white candle
1 pink candle
Offering to departed pet (milkbone, favorite toy,
carrots, tuna etc)
This is basically, just a simple prayer to the
deities and an offering to the departed/dying pet.
Cast the circle, light the white candle and the
pink candle. Then say the following:
"If __________'s time is near,
Lord & Lady, welcome him/her to your breast,
even though I shed many a tear.
Bless my humble friend,
The one who blessed me with their devoted
love to the end.
Although my heart is near to broken,
_________ please accept this meager token.
(milkbone, tuna etc,is placed in the offering
plate)
My love for you is ever strong,
For you, my heart will always long.
In time my heart will heal.
Pain I will no longer feel.
But my soul will always remember and know,
The bond we shared, the love you've bestowed."
Let the candles burn for as long you wish. Bury
the offering outside in an area where it will
not be disturbed. If you choose, you may burn a
white votive candle each day, for as long as you
want, in remembrance of the departed one.
Here is what you'll need:
- white cloth (enough to make a
small pouch)
- 1 white "virgin" candle (a new candle
that has not been used)
- Mistletoe
- Mugwort
- Sweetgrass
- Sage
Make a small pouch, sew three sides together
and leave one side open (this is where you will
stuff the herbs/plants). Chant the following, while
filling the pouch with the herbs/plants:
Keep chanting this till the pouch is
filled the Mistletoe, Mugwort, Sweetgrass and
Sage. Once filled, sew the fourth side of the
pouch shut, while still chanting. Place the
pouch on the alter, light the white candle.
"Smudge" the pouch through protective incense,
visualize the protection radiating from the pouch.
Keep chanting until you feel the peek of power and
release the energies into the universe. Remember
to strongly visualize while chanting. Let the candle
burn itself out, make sure it is in a safe place and
won't get tipped over.
Smudge yourself with sage or sweetgrass
before you go to bed and when you first wake
up. Smudge each morning and evening. Depending
on the size of pouch that you made, if it is
small enough it can be carried on you, in a
shirt pocket for example. The pouch can also
be placed within your vehicle for added
protection while travelling. If this pouch
is made by/for a woman, remember to inform them
not to carry the pouch if they are on their
"Moon Time," this is because of the Sweetgrass
that is within the pouch. This is due to the
cleansing process the woman is going through.
Everyone is familiar with the traditional
four directions. However,there are three other
directions that are sometimes not thought of
very often. There's the traditional East, South,
West and North. Then there is Above, Below and
Within. Here is a simple prayer, that can be
adapted to your needs, whether it be for protection
or healing or if you just want to connect to the
beauty of life.
Beauty to the East of Me
Beauty to the South of Me
Beauty to the West of Me
Beauty to the North of Me
Beauty Above Me
Beauty Below Me
Beauty Within Me
Beauty Surrounds Me
This is just one example of how this prayer/
chant/meditation can be used. You can subsitute
the word "Beauty" with "Healing" or "Protection" or
whatever other word you want. I have found this
useful when doing healing rituals on myself,
visualizing the healing energies coming from each
of the seven directions and enveloping me. I find
it very peaceful, as well as powerful.
You may also want to light a colored candle
that is relevant to the mediation that you are
doing. For instance, if using the above prayer/
meditation for healing, you may light a green or
blue candle. For protection, you may light a white
candle and so forth. Remember to use "virgin"
candles.
Sadly, there are times, when someone tries to
"send" something harmful to you (to cause pain,
misfortune etc).In such cases, there is a need to
destroy/neutralize the negativity that was sent to
cause you harm. A dear friend, passed the following
onto me. I've added a bit of my own in it too.
You'll need:
1 Black "virgin" candle
1 White "virgin" candle
2 candle holders
If you are right handed, hold the black candle
in your right hand. If you are left handed, hold
the black candle in your left hand.
Next, visualize all the negativity/harm/evil
that was sent to you. See this leaving you and
being transferred into the black candle. When you
feel all of the negativity/harm/evil has been
transferred into the black candle, place the candle
in a candle holder.
Next, take a shower or bath. This helps to
establish the cleansing process. Then smudge the
room/area in a clockwise direction. Ask the Goddess
& God, the four directions and the Old Ones to assist
and protect you. (I am not including how to
specifically call out to these powers, as I feel that
each person has their own invocations/prayers etc
and should use what feels best to them).
Next, burn Frankincense on a charcoal block.
Annoint the white candle with Sandlewood essential
oil. The white candle represents protection and
purification. Light the white candle, then light the
black candle. The flame on the black candle
represents the harm that was sent to you.
Let the candles burn down to nothing. (You
do not have to constantly watch the candles burn,
but make sure they are in a safe place and won't
tip over, a bathtub works well for this). Once
the black candle has melted down to nothing and
the flame has died. That means the harm/evil/
negativity sent to you has also died.
Next, wrap the remenents of the black
candle in white ribbon/cloth and "Bind" it.
Remember not to actually "Bind" the person(s)
who had sent you the harmful energy. Instead,
"bind" the harmful/negative act/energy itself.
That way no harm will come to those who sent it
to you. Let Karma deal with them. Say the
following:
I bind you with peace
I bind you with light
I bind you with love
May you bring me no more harm
So mote it be
Then bury the article in a clean area of
land, and be sure not to bury it on your property.
(Remember that "Binding" is somewhat a grey area.
Do not use binding to manipulate people or to cause
any harm. Remember that you are not actually
binding a specific person, rather the negative energy
that was directed to you. If the binding is done
properly (again, not to bind a person, but the
negative energy directed at you)I see no harm.
Remember the Three Fold Law when attempting to
bind anything, for whatever you do will be returned
three times back to you. Be Wise!)
There are many meanings for various colors.
When using cloth, candles, cords, ribbon, thread,
ink and so forth, keep in mind the importance of
color. Here is a brief listing of a few colors and
how they can be used. Keep in mind, that this list
is not complete, experiment and find out what works
for you.

There are times when we are sometimes faced
with an urgent financial need. This is one spell
I do not use often, and only use when I am in a
sincere financial bind.
This may not work well for those of you with
short hair. I have long hair and this part of the
spell. If you have short hair or no hair, try
subsituting green thread/yarn (use natural fibre
thread/yarn, such as cotton/wool). To see if the
yarn is real wool or synthetic, burn a bit of it
on the end. If it forms a hard little nub, then
it is synthetic.
Brush/comb your hair. The strands of hair
that are on your comb/brush, is what you'll be using.
When you have at least nine or more long strands of
hair, you are ready to begin. Begin chanting the
following or similar words:
Dear Lord and Lady,
Please send money to me.
Please send money to me,
Dear Lord and Lady.
Let the money come in an innocent way,
Let harm come to none,for fulfilling
this need for which I pray.
As you chant the above, rub the stands of hair
between your palms, to form a sort of cord. Keep
chanting, while doing the following. Next, tie nine
knots onto this hair cord. The following is a sloppy
diagram to show you where to tie these knots on the
hair cord. The numbers represent where the knots
should be tied.
---1---6---4---8---3---7---5---9---2---
Tie the first knot at the furthest left side of
the hair cord, the second knot at the furthest right
side of the hair cord, the third knot in the middle
and so on.
As you tie these knots, keep chanting.
Visualize your financial need being met, through
positive ways, such as finding a stash of money
you forgot about, winning a small sum, but not
through inheritances etc(as this is destructive,
you don't want someone to die, in order for you
to meet your financial needs, which is why the
wording of the chant used is so important).
Once you have tied the nine knots in the
appropriate order, keep chanting and visualizing
debts paid in full etc. Then, either bury the
hair cord, burn it or throw it into the wind.
Then make an offering to the Lord and Lady, by
either burying an apple, pour some milk/wine into
the ground, bury a bit of tobacco etc.
As you prepare and leave your offering of
thanks, say out loud that you are thankful for
their love, assistance, help, guidence etc and be
sincere when doing so!
This has always worked for me, whether it be
finding or winning money, or finding out that the
company actually OWES you money instead of you owing
them, an unexpected financial gift in the form of a
birthday gift etc. But please do not use this or
any other spell for greedy gains, use these type of
spells for urgent and sincere matters. Do not abuse
the Powers that be, they are there to help, assist
and guide us whenever possible. Abusing them for
greedy gains, only hurts you in the end. Be Wise!
***This Healing Spell may be adapted for Human use,
it is not restricted to pets. In the blank area's
insert the name of the one who the spell is for***
Cast a circle in the usual manner. If your pet
can not be in the circle with you, use something
symbolic of your pet (color, picture, tags, their
name written on a blank piece of white paper etc).
Annoint the purple/brown/blue candle with a healing
oil. Hold the black candle in your hands, and
visualize the sickness being absorbed into the black
candle, being fully transferred from your pet into
the black candle. Place candles in candle holders.
***This also can be adapted for humans too,
offerings could include: wine, milk, food,
tobacco etc. In the blank area's insert the name
of the departed one.***
