This simple ceremony blesses your home with the power of the sun and the protection of the palm leaf. Essential elements for this ritual are a palm leaf or front, incense, cup of water.
Take your palm leaf outside on a sunny day. Cast your sacred circle. Light the incense and pass the palm leaf through the smoke, saying:
By air and by fire I cleanse and consecrate you to the purpose of protection.
Touch your fingertips to the water, sprinkle a few drops onto the leaf, and say:
By water I cleanse and consecrate you to the purpose of protection.
Lay the palm leaf on the ground, saying:
By earth I cleanse and consecrate you to the purpose of protection.
Now hold the palm leaf up to the sun. Visualize the warmth and strength of the light permeating the palm leaf and filling it with power. Say:
Honored Sun,
Beloved light of the day,
Bless this palm with your protection and light.
So mote it be!
Pour the remaining water out onto the ground as an offering. When you return home, hang the palm leaf up over your front door.
