Potent Protection Spells
a collection of rare magic spells and rituals
Travel protection
This spell is good for protection during any kind of travel,
whether it be just a short jaunt or long distance.
You'll need:
A white feather (a small
one is best)
A bowl of spring water
Four beeswax candles
A compass (if you are unsure of where north, east, south and
west are located)
____________________
Place the four candles on a
table, one at north, one at south, one at east and one at west.
Spread them out so you have some room in the center. Place the
bowl of water in the center of the candles. Dip your right
index finger in the water and touch the north candle on its
side, dip your finger again and touch the south candle, then
the east and finally the west. Next light the candles in the
following order: west, east, south, north. As you light the
candles, repeat the following words:
"With this flame, I call upon
the spirits of the (whichever direction candle you are
lighting)"
When all the candles are
lighted, place the white feather into the bowl of spring water
and with it, stir the water in a clockwise direction for about
one minute. Remove the feather from the water and wait until
the water stops moving. When the water stops, repeat the
process of stirring the water, only this time in a
counter-clockwise direction for about one minute. Remove the
feather and hold it above the bowl in the center of the
candles. Repeat the following words:
"Spirits of the winds, empower
this symbol and watch over the traveler who carries it.
"
While still holding the feather
in the center of the candles, extinguish the candles in the
following order: north, south, east, west.
