Pagan Studies: Lily Spell for Protection

In this day in the Shinto faith, people adorn their houses and villages with lilies to
protect them from disaster. Here in the West, it was believed that the first lily sprang
from the breast milk of the goddess Juno, for whom the month of June was named. To use
the powers of lilies for protection, steep lily blossoms in alcohol for seven days.
Strain the infusion into a white vial. Sprinkle it on the window and door sills in all
the rooms of your house, saying:

"Mother Juno, protect this home from travail."

Arrange a bouquet of lilies on your kitchen table and burn a new white candle.
