Before you attempt to cast a circle you will need to ground and center yourself first. You should either have someone read this aloud to you, or use a tape recording of this, and play it back while doing it.
Close your eyes and feel grounded firmly on the floor.
Pause
You are solid, your weight rests comfortably and evenly on your hips, legs, and feet. Feel the weight of the day, the weight of your body settle firmly in your legs, feet, and hips.
Pause
Now feel roots begin to grow out of the bottom of your feet. They push through the floor and grow down into the soil.
Pause
These root tendrils push through rock and stone, through dirt and crystal, through cavern and underground stream.
Pause
Feel the roots from your feet plunge deep into the Earth, they are traveling fast, growing, writhing, searching as they burrow through the soil.
Pause
Feel the roots from your feet as they break through into the core of the Earth. The core of the Earth is glowing magma, hot and healing, and the roots from your feet plunge into the lava.
Pause
The lava begins to rush up the roots, pouring through the tendrils, up through rock and stone, up through dirt and crystal, through cavern and underground stream.
Pause
The lava travels up the roots through the floor into the bottoms of your feet and fills you with a glowing warmth.
Pause
Now feel the lava pour up, filling your ankles and calves, welling into your hips and thighs, warm and embracing.
Pause
The lava fills your stomach and wraps around your heart. It travels down your arms, into your hands and fingers and loosens the tension from your shoulders.
Pause
Now it wells up into your head, releasing old pains and tensions from your neck.
Pause
Your arms begin to rise over your head and the glowing lava from the core of the Earth pours out your fingertips and through your crown chakra to fountain up.
Pause
Now the lava fountains from your fingers and head, pouring in glowing showers to the Earth again, and you feel this cycle connect you and ground you. You are rooted and filled with Earth's energy.
Pause
Reach down and touch your fingers to the floor, feel the connection between you and the Earth below you.
Pause
When you are ready, stand up and open your eyes.
