New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| On August 24, 79 CE, Mount Vesuvius erupted. Hot ash and pumice buried the Roman cities of Pompeii, Herculaneum, and Stabiae.
This is a good time to honor the element of fire. For this spell you need a red candle, a flat piece of igneous rock (such as pumice), and something to mark the stone. Light the candle and set the rock on your altar. Meditate on how fire can be a source of destruction (as in burning a forest) or creation (as in making new land). Mentally assign one aspect of fire to each side of the stone. Mark them accordingly. Then say: "The power of fire destroys All things in time: loves, hates, griefs, joys. The power of fire creates All that it takes: griefs, joys, loves, hates." Imagine sealing those energies in the stone. Later, when you need to change fire’s manifestation, turn over the rock. |
