Transformation Ritual.

I performed a simple transformation ritual tonight in preparation for tomorrows new beginning, I thought Id share.

Transformation Ritual.
Preparation:
You will need to have these prepared previously:
*Large Candle - carved with symbols that represent the change you wish to be made manifest in your life , you may wish to write directly your intentions and desires onto the candle with a knife (if your climsy like me then I sugest using a large needle or a metal skewer), carving symbols or pictures into the candle, whatever feel right will draw the most energy to you. You should use a white candle as this is like a blank slate but feel free to use any colour that calls to you.
*Annointing oil, (for above candle), you may choose to make your own if you grow your own herbs or use essential oils, but any scent that appeals to you can be used. It is simply used as a base to hold an extra layer to your spell by assisting you to deeply imbue your candle with your desire. Simply pour a very small amount of the oil into your palm, allow it to absorb your energy then rub your hands together to spread the oil then take up the candle and "massage" the candle from the tips to the center, visualising that you are massaging in an oil that will bring about the things you desire, as the candle burns. The longer and with the greater concentration with which you do this the greater the energy.

*A Token - every tradition and many individuals have their own way of both continuing the energy of a spell and/or ritual and of honouring the spirits and/or Deity that is assisting them to achieve their desire. For this spell I am using my Elder Tree, the oldest tree in our garden and it has become my sacred tree, in it I hang my tokens which I make from various things depending upon the spell, for this I chose a beaded hanging charm, with colours and beads to represent the various things I wished to bring into and transform in my life. You may also choose to charge this with oil or simply by holding within your hands and directly infusing the object with your energy.

You will also need:
* Two different coloured pens, one each to represent leaving your life and moving into your life and a sheet of paper torn in half.
*Matches

Steps:
1. Preparation.
2. Call up Spirits and Elementals and asked for their aid.
3. Called upon deity, light candles. (not Ritual Candle)
4. On left hand side of torn sheet write all the things you wish gone from your life
5. On right hand sheet write all the things you wish to bring into your life.
6. Meditate on left sheet, see all these things walking out of your life for good, then burn left hand sheet and say something about being glad to see these things gone from your life but being thankful; for the lessons they have brought, but you now wish them to be gone from your life.
7. Meditate on right sheet, see all these things walking into your life for good, then place right hand sheet under candle and say something about welcoming these new experiences into your life and being thankful; for the lessons they bring, you may also wish to state again what you wish to bring into your life then...
8. Light the candle, and say "the power of this ritual I ask be present in this candle and that every time I relight this candle I will give my life another boost towards the desired destination, to the best possible me".. then allow the candle to burn for a minimum of 30 mins to absorb the initial energy of the spell.
Then take up the charm/token and say "the power of this ritual I ask be present in this charm/token and that every time the sun shines or the moon rises, it will give my life another boost towards the desired destination, to the best possible me"
9. Thank Deity for assistance
10. Thank and Dismiss Elementals (freely come and freely go, I thank you for your assistance).
11. Place your charm in your traditional sport, (Mine will be hanging from the Elder Tree)

Everytime you feel like your getting off track for your new life relight your candle, (from as little as 3 mins to as long as 3 hours)
