Consecrating
tools
Before using tools, they
should be properly consecrated. First thoroughly wash each tool
and then perform a consecration ritual. Here are some samples.
*****
Consecrate
and cleanse this (thing)
That it may be purified and fit to dwell within the sacred circle
In the name of the Goddess and the God,
I consecrate this (thing)
*****
I bless
this (thing)
That it may be purified and fit to dwell within the sacred circle
In the name of the Goddess and the God
I bless this (thing)
*****
Formal
ceremony
Rub Salt
on the Tool then:
"I
consecrate thee with Earth...
May this {tool} be endowed with all the Virtues of Earth, a
And the blessings of the elements of Earth be multiplied with its
every use."
Then pass
the tool through burning incense, (see herbs for blessings) visualize
the air as you speak:
"I
consecrate thee with Air..
May this {tool} be endowed with all the Virtues of Air, an
d the blessings of the elements of Air be multiplied with its every
use."
Now pass
the tool through flame, dedicating it to fire:
I consecrate
thee with Fire...
May this {tool} be endowed with all the Virtues of Fire,
and the blessings of the elements of Fire be multiplied with its
every use."
Sprinkle
water over the tool:
I consecrate
thee with Water...
May this {tool} be endowed with all the Virtues of Water,
and the blessings of the elements of Water be multiplied with its
every use."
Hold the
"tool" aloft in offering to Goddess
"Lady
and Lord hear me,
I offer this [tool] for Your blessing.
May it ever serve me in earnest, and thee in Honor... So more it
Be!"
*****
Place whatever you're going to consecrate on the pentacle, and touching
it with our projective (right) hand, and using the name and material
of the tool, say (for instance, if it's a sword):
I consecrate
you, sword of steel,
to cleanse you and purify you,
to serve me into the circle.
In the name of the Mother Goddess and Father God you're consecrated.
*****
I charge
you by the Old Ones: By the omnipotent Goddess and God:
By the Virtues of the Sun, Moon and Stars:
By the power of the Earth, Air, Fire and Water,
that I shall obtain all that I desire through you.
Charge this by your power, Old Ones.
