A ceremony for moving forward, written for a friend~

Our path is set, our vision clear,
As this time of great change draws ever near,
We have pin pointed the place(s) that we wish to be,
Though are open to that which we cannot see,
Let Career be the vehicle that leads the way,
And with our hearts fulfilled, all fear falls away,
I will go first, and I will soon follow,
And as each dream is realized, we will fill that left hollow,
From city to suburb, apartment to home,
In this new place of being we shall make it our own,
As the leaves fall to winter, and the winds give way to spring,
A new life into this family we will be ready to bring,
So we send thanks to each light that has touched us this far,
And acknowledge that you were there to guide us on our journey and forever raise the bar,
Our love be the center from which this spell is cast,
And with that comes forth our future let the past be now past…

To be repeated thrice together

Needs:

Matches - you will each need three
Fire proof bowl – for center to burn your written aspirations/dreams/map
Map – to mark where you wish to go
Sage
Candles
o Black: Black candles, which are ruled by Saturn, can be potent in all forms of banishing magic, for leaving behind old sorrows and redundant relationships, for acknowledging grief and for rituals of parting. Black, like brown, is the color of acceptance, whether of a restriction or of the frailties of self or others, and so it is a candle color of forgiveness. Black is another earth color, containing both male and female energies. Rituals using these candles are best practiced on a Saturday. Use with jet, obsidian, tourmaline and onyx.
o Blue: Primary spiritual color; for rituals to obtain wisdom, harmony, inner light, or peace; confers truth and guidance.

o Orange: Creativity, ability to speak one's mind, ambition, career matters and the Law, self-confidence. Solar color and also stands for Leo
o Emerald Green: Important component in Venusian rituals; attracts love, social delights, and fertility.

o Purple: Power, success, idealism, psychic manifestations; ideals for rituals to secure ambitions, independence, financial rewards, or to make contact with the spiritual other world; increases Neptune energy.
Sea Salt-Pour a circle of sea salt around the center space In the living room large enough for you both to sit inside it facing each other.

To Cast a Circle-

We cast this circle in trust and love.
As we call forth guidance from above.
Nothing unbidden shall enter here.
No unwanted spirits, shadows, or fear.
Together we will hold this space of wisdom and light.
For the ceremony to take place this very night.
As we step within the circle may our own worries fall away.
As they have no place here and it is our will to say,
By the elements of Air, Fire, and the Sea,
As I will it so shall it be.
