The Northern Lights Fairy Spell
By Claire Nahmad
When the firmament is alight with meteoric phenomena, and the merry
Dancers assume their pretty gowns and make great sport up and down the
curtain of the night sky until they are in a fair frolic and frenzy,
these Northern Lights are come to let you know that the evening is
full of magic, and the season ripe for spells and craftworking.
Therefore, coax a cat (better if she be black) on to your lap, and sit
alone with her in the garden, stroking her until a sheen appears on
her coat and she purrs contentedly. Have at your elbow a nipperkin of
wine in a small vessel, and at the cat's first stretch, anoint her
lightly with the wine, making the holy sign of the cross on her head,
and then do the same for yourself.
Gently grasp her tail and stroke it three times swiftly over your left
eye, and then over your right, saying:
"Elves of the night, enchant my sight,
Your forms for to see in moon or sunlight'
With this spell and with this sign
I pri'thee, forward my design."
Let puss run off, and steal away to your bedchamber, there to
contemplate the moon and the stars and all the magical lights of the
sky from your lattice. If you have found favor with the fairies, then
mystic dreams will come to you that night, and afterwards you will
begin to see Little People at their revels, faintly at first, but yet
more clear, more lucid, as the fairy-enchantment blesses ever deeper
your inner seeing.
