learning how to cast a circle is one of the simplest and most useful things a witch can learn. it’s used to hold the energy to a specific place for more efficiency, protection, and some witches do it every time they’re about to cast a spell.
although it might seem difficult, it’s really easy.
cleanse the area with incense or sage. spread the smoke in a circular motion.
push some salt with your wand/athame in cleansed water, and stir it with it.
with your fingers, sprinkle the water in a circular motion, just as you did with the smoke.
if you want to lay down crystals or other stuff, now it’s the time to do it!
pick up your wand, and start by pointing east, and say:
“please, element of air, protect me while i’m working”
“please, element of fire, protect me while i’m working”
“please, element of water, protect me while I’m working”
“please, element of earth, protect me while i’m working”
while facing east, point your wand to the sky, and say:
“please, element of spirit, protect me while i’m working”
after doing your work, it’s time to close the circle. never leave a circle open, since it’s a portal of energy!
close the circle by doing the same thing, but backwards.
point your wand west, and say:
“element of water, thanks for protecting me”
“element of fire, thanks for protecting me”
“element of air, thanks for protecting me”
“element of earth, thanks for protecting me”
facing east, point your wand to the sky and while lowering to your knees, say:
“element of spirit, thanks for protecting me”
and that’s it! you’ve successfully casted and closed a circle. i’m very proud of you. tomorrow, a post about beltane will be waiting for you! don’t miss it. that’s it! i love you all.
