| | | | Preparations Have two tablespoons of dried rosemary and one tablespoon of dried lavender. Cotton cloth, thread and a white candle. You will use the cloth and thread to make sachets for the herbs. You will need as much of the cloth and herbs as necessary to make as many as you need. They will be placed in all areas the child will occupy (crib, playpen, etc.) After creating the sachets (you may buy them, if you can find them), place them on your work area or altar. Light a white candle. Ritual Say once, to each sachet: " By the powers of earth, fire air and water, Let these herbs protect. By the will of the Lady, by the will of the Lord, Let these herb protect. " Bring in the child, say to each sachet: " Herbs of protection, here is thy charge; protect him/her well. So mote it be. " At this point, you should be seeing, or visualizing, a white wall surrounding the infant, emanating from the sachets. You can move the sachets anywhere, I suggest keeping at least one in proximity of the child at all times, and yes, the diaper bag would be close enough in most cases. |
