Death of a Pet Ritual
You will need:
sandalwood incense
red candle
white candle
1 flower of your choice
rose quartz
vinegar
honey
Light the candles and incense, and greet the Lord and Lady by saying:
I come to You now to release
This pain and all emotional beasts
That plague my heart so heavily--
Take them from me--set me free!
Name the flower for your pet. Stroke the petals and speak your pet with love. Tell your pet how lonely you will be without them. Place the flower on the altar and lay the rose quartz on top of it. Tell your pet the stone will represent them to you, and tell them they are free to go to the Summerland for rebirthing. Say:
You're free to go now, Little One,
Rejoice and play--the time has come.
For your spirit to be on its way.
Have fun, be happy--your love will stay!
Meditate on the spirit of your pet moving on, then put a drop of vinegar on your tongue to represent the sournes we feel when Death takes a loved one. Take some time to grieve now, cry if you haven't yet.
When you feel you can cry no more, taste the honey. Rejoice and celebrate the time you had with your pet.
Put out the candles and thank the Lord and Lady for Their comforting presence.
Release the flower into a body of water, wish it farewell as it floats away. Keep the stone close to you or in a safe spot.
