A Spell for Security

You will need:
- Seven small, smooth stones, approximately 2 inches in diameter
- A candle (any color, but white or natural beeswax is best)

On a Sunday morning, at the rising of the sun, light your candle and place it on a flat surface, preferably a tabletop.  You will need some room to work your spell, so make sure the table's top is of adequate size.

Lay your stones on the tabletop, not too near the candle.  Next, speak aloud the following words:

Seven stones to bring protection,
From the seven life foundations.

Next, begin forming a circle around the candle with the stones.  Leave the circle loose at first (stones not touching each other), but then begin moving the stones closer to the candle, forming a tighter circle, until at last, the stones are all touching each other and in a tight circle around the candle.  At this point, the stones must be touching each other.

Next, while the candle burns, begin removing the stones from the circle and distributing them throughout your home.  Place the stones in inconspicuous locations where they will rest undisturbed.  Concentrate on door and window locations.  This will establish your field of security.

Continue placing the stones in strategic locations until all stones have been distributed throughout your room or home, and your field of security has been established.

Once the stones have all been distributed and placed where you wish them to remain, extinguish the candle.  Leave the stones in the positions you placed them.  If you must move one, or if it is accidentally moved after the candle was extinguished, you must then perform this spell again to reestablish the field of security.
