The Outline For Wiccan Rituals

By Tammie Caldwell


Although many think that the witches and wiccans of legend are already extinct, many of them are still alive today and are still performing spells. Now in order to harness the power of nature, what these people do is that they would perform certain rituals that can summon these powers. All kinds of Wiccan rituals would have a certain outline that they would follow in order to be performed. If one is taking up the art of magick, he will be learning this outline.

Of course the very first thing to do would be to make sure that one would clean himself and his soul. Now this step is very vital to the process simply because in order to communicate with nature, one needs to first be cleansed. One can do this by taking a cleansing bath, by doing a fast, or doing something else to cleanse his soul.

Other than cleansing oneself, one also has to make sure that he cleanses the place wherein he will be holding his ritual. He has to remove any unnecessary clutter that can be found in the vicinity. He should vacuum, sweep or mop if he has the time. He also has to keep his things and make sure that the place he is doing is ritual in is bare.

Aside from physically cleaning the area, what other wiccans would do is that they would also clean it spiritually. They do this by using a ritual broom that is also known as a besom which is the broom that most people would associate with witches on television. They would usually sweep the area with the broom to get rid of astral trash that would somehow disrupt the ongoing ritual.

When that is already done, then the next thing to do would be to make the circle. The circle is very important because it is the circle that will be able to harness the energy that one will use in order to cast the spell. Of course he may make a circle made out of pretty much any material.

Now upon the completion of the preparations, one is ready to do the ritual. Now the ritual would involve a lot of spells and incantations. Now these incantations would actually help the practitioners be able to bring their energy in one place to perform a spell.

When the spell has already been casted, then the very last thing to do would be to close the circle. In the closing, one will be thanking the gods and the goddesses for the power that was given. This way, the energy will be balanced once again and no stray energy will have a chance to get out of the circle.

Now this simple outline is what most of the practitioners would follow when they perform their rituals. Obviously each ritual is done differently but all of them would have this basic outline that the practitioners would use. So if one would want to cast spells, then he would first have to know about this basic outline as it is the most basic thing that he would learn if he were to study the art of witchcraft.
