Now through September 19 the ancient Romans honored Jupiter, the greatest of their great gods. This is the time to ask Jupiter to help make a wish come true. This is the one time to ask for something big because Jupiter, the father of the gods and the Supreme Roman deity, usually responds in a big way. Cover your altar with royal blue fabric, and decorate with flowers of the season in colors associated with him such as purple asters and yellow mums. In a dish, place symbols sacred to him-an oak leaf and a pinch each of nutmeg and clove. Ask if he will honor you with his presence, then announce your wish to him. Meditate on your request. In a gesture of gratitude, leave the oak leaf and spices at the base of an oak tree.
