CREATING a SACRED CIRCLE

Make Altar in the East of the proposed Circle.

Place four crystals in the N S E W positions around the room deliniating the proposed circle. Place White candle on the altar in the East position , outside the perimeter of circle to be created. (You can put candles in South, North and West too, if you like.) To the right a bowl of sea water, (or water and salt crystals),at the left an incense holder with incense. Place 'Objects of correspondence' ie jewellery, gems, photos etc. (of target person, not present, to be prayed for,) in front of the candle on the altar. When ready to create the circle - light candle and incense, purify water by putting the tip of finger in the water saying -

“Blessed crystal of the sea, I cast out all that is impure - may you aid my ritual”

Create circle by extending the arm in front and walk round circumference of circle, saying...

“ I create this circle so that it may be a boundary between the worlds of the everyday and the eternal plains.”

Sprinkle the sea water around the circle (representing earth and water).Whilst saying;-

"The circle is created and we are between worlds, beyond the bounds of time.

Carry the incense around the circle saying;

"Where night and day, joy and sorrow, birth and death, meet as one".

Then pick up the East candle and walk the circle saying;

"The Circle is bound and blessed, Amen"

and then place it back on the altar,

”Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob - Israel, I stand not in my own righteousness, but in the righteousness of Jesus Christ"

INVITING the guardian angels:-

Still facing EAST - raise arm, saying

"Guardian Angel of the EAST I do invite you now to guard this place, and worship with us."

Next face NORTH Invite Guardian Angel saying...

"Guardian Angel of the NORTH,I do invite you now to to guard this place, and worship with us."

Next face WEST Invite Guardian Angel saying...

"Guardian Angel of the WEST, I do invite you now to guard this place and worship with us."

Finally move to SOUTH Invite Guardian saying...

saying "Guardian Angel of the SOUTH, I do invite you now to guard this place and worship with us."
Prayer Circle
The circle is now complete and ready for Worship, Prayer and Healing or other work needing to be done while being in the sphere.

Prayer ritual.

Standing at the Altar in the EAST

say " Lord God to whom all hearts are open, all desires known, and from whom no secrets are hidden, cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your holy spirit so that we may truly love you and worthily praise Thy Holy Name, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

FOCUS Singing with arms raised..

"Hallelujah, Jesu Christ .... " in spontaneous melody, for as long as it takes to focus....

Meditate a few moments.

Now continue for confession, prayer, praise, singing, chanting, healing, or intercession, ..)

To heal someone present in circle, at the time of empowerment, oil may be used, annointed on the brow, (or in the palms) saying..

“In this sacred place set apart, out of time, receive healing through me from the Divine Spirit for...... (Condition)

“By the power of the Holy Spirit in Christ Jesus name, BE HEALED”

To heal someone not present “I have come to bring health to... (name). "who has been diagnosed with ......”.

or to empower for someone to take charge of their life, habits and circumstances. To cause wealth to come to that person for good reason. For general Health to improve.

When person is not present in circle, work is done by proxy, that is by association with an object (belonging to person to be healed or helped} being placed on altar ; Usually their permission is sort before undertaking responsibilty.

Using objects by association to send out power to situations one is felt called to do. Quartz Crystals are good as Objects of correspondence, by declaring them as such.

Meditation, contemplation, waiting on God

Kneel before altar, 'sitting on your heels' if you like, get comfortable.

Your time to listen.

After 2,3,5 minutes or what seems appropriate, stand up.

FAREWELL

('CLOSING THE CIRCLE')

Starting in the EAST raise arms saying ..

"Lord thank you for blessing and witnessing my ritual.... (spontaneous thanksgiving)"

Move to the South Position

Then bid the Guardian Angels farewell; for the South, saying...

"Guardian Angel of the South thankyou for guarding this circle and worshiping with us, I bid thee farewell"

then moving clockwise continue to farewell each Guardian Angel,

For the west, saying...

"Guardian Angel of the West thankyou for guarding this circle , and worshiping with us. I bid thee farewell."

For the north, saying...

"Guardian Angel of the North, thankyou for guarding this circle, worshiping with us. I bid thee farewell."

For the east, saying...

"Guardian Angel of the East, thankyou for guarding this circle, and worshiping with us. I bid thee farewell."

Now from the altar walk clockwise, against the sun. Saying three times as you walk the circle. "Carried within our hearts, always to merry meet and merry part."
Snuff out candle and clean up, putting every thing away.
