Tree Blessing Spell
by: Elizabeth Barrette

Planting trees helps protect the environment and connect you to
nature. You may use this spell to bless a new tree. First, plant a
sapling in spring under a waxing or Full Moon using some organic
fertilizer and a magical stone such as a quartz crystal or moss agate.
While you work, repeat this chant:

"Roots go down, grow deep and wide, anchor firmly side to side; trunk
go up, grow tall and strong, keeping time to the seasons' song; leaves
go out, thick and green, fair as any forest seen!"

Put some fertilizer in the hole as you fill it, and sprinkle more on
top. Set the stone by the trunk as a gift for the tree. Then cover
everything with a layer of mulch. Thank the sapling for coming to live
with you and promise to take care of it.
