The dark moon is a good time to do protective magick and to banish things from your life.
You will need:
- two black candles
- cauldron
- paper and pen
Place the cauldron in the center of the altar and put the paper and pen beside it. Cast the circle in a counter clockwise way. when it is cast, return to the altar and face the North. Light the black candles. Say:
The moon is dark. She hides her face from humans. Onley women can know the true secrets of the Dark Mother. Wise one, let me feel Your presence and power. I need Your wisdom of releasing and removing. If punishment be needed by those who work against me, I leave it within your hands.
Move counterclockwise to the East and say:
Remove all negatives from my thoughts amd mind, Dark Mother. Let them bear no fruit within my life.
Go to the North and say:
Remove all negatives from my body, Dark Mother. Let them bear no fruit in my life.
Go to the West and say:
Remove all negatives from my emotions, Dark Mother. Let them bear no fruit in my life.
Go to the South and say:
Remove all negatives from my spiritual life, Dark Mother. Let them bear no fruit in my life.
Return to the altar and stand facing North. Say :
I accept no negative thoughts,words, or deeds from others. They ase destroyed by the powers of the Dark Mother. If these negatives comefrom within myself, turn them into lessons of good. Help me to become balanced, a true Goddess-daughter/son of light and wisdom.
Face the altar now. Write down on the apaer negative things you wished removed from your life (ie..negative thoughts about yourself, bad habits, negative influences of people.) Read each one out loud to the Dark Mother to release them to Her. Light the paper from one of the black candles and drop it into the cauldron and watch it burn. Say:
I release these unto Your keeping. Show me how to move beyond these negatives into a position of light and power.
Burn the paper until it is reduced to ashes. Raise your arms in reverence to the Goddess when the paper is finished and say:
Dark Mother, Crone Goddess, Wise and Elder One, teach me Your deep mysteries, the Ancient Goddess magick known to my foremothers and fathers. Guide and protect me, Dark Mother.
Now would be a good time to mediatate and see what insight you may receive from the Mother. Or do a spell of some sort. When finished, release the circle as usual. Bury the ashes of the paper somewhere off of your property.
