Ritual To Awaken Earth Spirits~
Items needed: drum & harp (or other instrument), wand, cauldron with water and herbs (as told through meditation), and gifts (seeds, tobacco, sweet herbs, fertilizer, etc.). Do in daytime. Do NOT cast circle or call directions, invoke Lord & Lady. Call upon Lord/Ruler of Earth element. Walk area with a slow beat on the drum. Use Gaea chant, music included, this also works well as a 4-part canon:
Gaea, Earth Mother Make your children strong, Gaea, Earth Mother Heed my loving song. Gaea, Earth Mother Let your children thrive, Gaea, Earth Mother Through you we are alive. So mote it be. Stand in center of area, hold aloft wand and say:
I call upon the devas the fairies and the sprites, Spirits all awaken to set this place a-right. Grow and tend by day and guard it well at night, As above, then so below fulfill with love and light. Offer gifts and pour out water. Play upon the harp (key of F or D). Visualize the spirits waking and tending the area. Feel them strengthen and respond to the call. Give thanks and close. |
