Witch Craft Rituals
Rituals can be a confusing area for new witches;
there are thousands available online and in books, many of them reworded
versions of each other. It’s hard to sift through them all and find
one in particular that speaks to you, that’s why it’s important
to learn how to create your own rituals, ones that come from inside you.
I know what you’re thinking, “Me? Write something
like that? I wouldn’t know where to start!”
Trust me, creating your own rituals isn’t
as hard as you might think, once you look at the basic structure of a
ritual, it’s all “fill in the blanks” from there. However,
if the whole idea of being so creative with your rituals feels a little
bit too much all at once, it’s perfectly okay to use prewritten
ones, just try to put a little of yourself into it too.
Ritual Basics:
Before you sit down and start writing, it’s important that you
understand the purpose behind the particular ritual you’d
like to do, and how it makes you feel. While the idea of research might
seem like a pain, if you don’t do your homework, you’ll end
up with a ritual that doesn’t really mean much to anyone. Keep in
mind that rituals don’t have to be ornately worded affairs that
take hours to perform, some of the most powerful rituals are the ones
spoken directly from the heart, without the benefit of pencil and paper…it’s
up to you.
Once you’ve got the idea in your mind and you’re comfortable
with all the information you’ve read, it’s time to start writing.
Every ritual, no matter how many people or Gods it involves,
is set up basically the same way:
- Casting the Circle – this is perhaps the most obvious
of all the steps included here; the space within your circle is sacred
and sometimes considered to be “between worlds”. Not only
does it keep out any unwanted negative energy, it also helps to keep
your own energy in.
- Call the Element / Corners / Quarters – this is known
by so many different names, but its intent is the same…to call
upon the elements or guardians so they can watch over you and lend some
protective aid if needed. Consider them to be your circle’s bouncers.
- Call upon the Gods – perhaps one of the most personal
parts of a ritual, you can ask for their presence during this time,
either for a specific purpose or just to get to know them better. If
you don’t have a particular Goddess / God to call upon, you can
ask for the presence of the Lord and Lady.
- Build your Energy – known by lots of different names,
this refers to the part of the ritual where you begin to build your
power, either by chanting, dancing, singing, or all of the above. This
is an important step if you want your ritual to work out properly.
- State the Purpose of the Ritual – once you’ve
called upon all these energies and deities to be at your side, you’d
best have a good reason for doing it…you can state your intent
verbally or in writing or by meditating. However it’s important
not to move on from this step until you feel your purpose has been properly
stated.
- Release your Energy – you raised the energy earlier,
now you must let it go in order for your ritual to be effective. Most
times this is a draining experience, and some witches feel tired but
“good” after ritual work.
- Thanking the Gods – this part is fairly obvious…if
you’ve asked for the presence of the Gods during your ritual,
it’s important to thank them and let them know you appreciate
them being with you.
- Releasing the Quarters – similar to thanking the Gods,
this simply lets the beings you called upon know that their task is
done and that you appreciate their help.
- Release the Circle – the final step of a ritual. This
clears your sacred working space so that it, and you, can go back to
the normal routines of life feeling much better about it all.
- Cakes and Ale – while not really necessary but more
traditional, this particular step helps to further “ground”
you, and by eating and drinking, you can easily focus yourself back
to the more “real” world.
Please keep in mind that these steps are guidelines, not elements
written in stone, to help you better organize yourself when it comes to
ritual work.
Like I said earlier, this particular part of “the witch craft”
can be overwhelming to newcomers, and the best advice I can give is simply
this: the real power doesn’t come solely from words and actions,
it comes from inside you.

Tis the witching hour of night,
Or bed is the moon and bright,
And the stars they glisten, glisten,
Seeming with bright eyes to listen
For what listen they?
John Keats (1795 - 1821)
