The path of Wicca can often feel solitary, but it doesn’t have to be. Witchcraft, which is in itself highly creative, is even more so when practiced in a supportive circle. Wednesdays are wonderful for getting together with like-minded folks. Invite four of your fellow pagans over.
Gather together
* a censer or incense burner
* 2 green candles
* 2 yellow candles
* palo santo incense
Place the ritual elements on a table that will serve as an altar. Stand in a circle near the altar, holding a censer or incense burner. Ask each of your guests to represent one of the four directions: north, east, south, and west. Give the people representing north and south green candles and east and west get yellow. Light the incense and bless each candle with the sweet-smelling smoke.
Bless the candle of the East, saying:
Inspired by air.
Bless the candle of the West saying:
Burnished by fire.
Bless the candle of the North, saying:
Cleansed by water.
Bless the candle of the South, saying:
Strengthened by earth.
Together, everyone chants:
Blessed be.
After the ritual, sit in a circle and share your ideas and creative vision. Talk about how you can support each other in realizing your full potential.
