A Spirit-Summoning Spell
------------<WBR>------

To create an incense portal for summoning the ancestor
spirits from the otherworld, you will need an altar
complete with pictures and items to honor them.
In a strongly protected circle, place lavender,
cinnamon, and wormwood on the coals. Call out only
to benevolent and loving ancestor spirits by saying:

"Blood of my blood, you spirits of love,
Come from below and from above;
Entities loving who wish me well,
Come to this circle when I sound the bell."

Intone (ring) a bell three times and welcome the ancestors'
spirits. Afterwards, ring the bell seven times to send them
back through the portal so you can close your circle.
