Interesting Spells & Meditations for Samhain.

[ScarlettRose]

I was just looking through one of my books and found these very interesting spells and meditations for Samhain! Thought I would share((:

Found this spell very interesting...

"Spell to Bless Bones." At Samhain, when our thoughts just naturally turn to skeletons, perform this spell to send a message of healing, health, and wholeness to your bones.

Stand with your knees flexed, about shoulder width apart, begin to sway gently from foot to foot, back and forth, quietly, rhythmically. Bring your awareness to the bones of your feet. As you sway, say these words,
"Bless you, bones of my feet."

Now become aware of your ankle bones, shin bones, knees, thigh bones.
Now say,
"Bless you, bones of my legs."

Bring attention to your spine, hips, ribs.

"Bless you, bones of my trunk."

Now bring your consciousness to your collarbone, shoulders, upper arms, elbows, lower arms, wrists, and hands.
"Bless you bones of my arms and hands."

Now hold your neck and skull in your magical awareness.
Say to end,
"Bless you, bones of my neck and head.
Strength and healing to my bones.
May they serve my soul's purpose and support me on my path.
Blessed be, blessed bones."




"Scrying Brew & Meditation."
You will need:
1 cup water.
3 tablespoons or more dried mugwort.
1/4 cup dried oatstraw
1 cinnamon stick.
Maple syrup, honey, or brown sugar (optional.. I recommend honey)

Boil water, then add to a teapot which the mugwort, oatstraw, and cinnamon stick have been placed.

Steep for at least 15 min. Strain and pour into a mug (preferably black)
Now add sweetener... Which ever desired.

Now sit comfortably in your power place w/ mug. Smell your scrying brew, feeling the steam, warm as breath, on your face. As you sip, become aware of your breathing. Try to keep it nice and deep breaths. Very relaxing. When the tea is nearly gone, gradually turn your attention to the surface of the liquid remaining in your mug. Gaze at it without effort, simply letting yourself be with the mug and the tea. Just relax. Pay attention to your thoughts. Take as much time as you can. You may leave the remaining tea in its mug on your kitchen altar as an offering for your long-forgotten kindred who knew how to perform this ancient ritual.


& Here is a song of the Samhain Goddess,
Deep night in the forest,
Deep night on the hill.
The Old Wise One opens her cloak-
Inside bitter smoke coils like a snake.
Heaped at her feet, orange pumpkins grin.
The bones of her hand shine through her skin.

Breath of Mystery rides the wind:
Honor me.
Breath of death cold on the back of your neck:
Honor me.
Breath of magic whirls around you:
Honor me.
Breath of endings and beginnings, always new.
Honor me now.


Found this book super interesting! Not sure if I will try any of these, but just wanted to share.
I love this time of year!
