This spell is based on an old scrying method, whereby divination is done with water. You'll need a metal bowl ~ to be honest, copper will work the best, but any metal bowl will suffice. If you haven't got a metal bowl of any description, then the next best thing will be to line another bowl with aluminium foil. Fill the bowl halfway with moonwater. |
What The Future Foretells |
Next you must light three blue candles ~ blue is the colour of the soul ~ one white candle ~ for spirit ~ and one purple candle ~ for pyschic awareness. Place these candles round half of the bowl farthest away from you in this order: blue, white, blue, purple, blue. Pick three fresh sage leaves and three fresh basil leaves, placing them in the bowl at the bottom. with your hands, take a pinch of rosemary tips (no twig, just the tender, tiny leaves), a pinch of dried thyme ~ mix them with enough olive oil to make a paste ~ you must do this with your fingers ~ don't use any other implement. Use this mixture to coat over a obsidian stone. Whe the stone is well coated, place it into the bowl, so that it holds down the leaves. Rinse your fingers in the bowl, and you will notice small bits of the dried herb floating to the surface. Take your fingers out of the bowl, and then wait for patterns to begin to form on the surface of the water from the dried herbs. Look into the lights of the candleflames and concentrate , singing and chanting very softly: "Ancient wisdom, please foretell, I say the words, I cast the spell. From peace, hope and harmony, The future I wish to see. Just a glimpse I ask of here something from the coming year" Slowly lower your gaze back to the water, and concentrate not on the surface, but just below it. towards the stone The floating herbs will appear to blur slightly as your eyes try to focus under the surface of the water. It may take a few tries ~ concentrating on the candles and then to the stone in the water, but soon you will be ready to 'see', and from the blurred forms of herbs floating on the water, you should be able to make out glimpses of future times, faces, or words with special meaning. |
