There are many different wordings
that may be
used in Consecrating and Blessing a Circle. They may vary from one
Grimoire
to another. It can be simple or complicated depending on your
preferences.
It can be long or short and worded to fit your needs.... it does not
have
to be from a Grimoire... it can be one that you have made up yourself
and
comes from the Heart. I myself prefer one that fits in with High Magic
and God Almighty, such as the one below. What you are doing is simply
Praying
or asking the Deities that you believe in to Bless your circle and
Consecrate
it as your protection barrier. This one that I have provided here, is
my
favorite and it is from a book called "The Magus" a Complete System
of Occult Philosophy.
In the name of the Holy,
Blessed, and Glorious
Trinity, proceed we to our work in these mysteries to accomplish that
which
we desire; we therefore, in the names aforesaid, consecrate this piece
of ground for our defense, so that no spirit whatsoever shall be able
to
break these boundaries, neither be able to cause injury nor detriment
to
any of us here assembled: but that they may be compelled to stand
before
this Circle, and answer truly our demands, so far as it pleaseth Him
who
liveth for ever and ever; and who says, I am the Alpha and Omega, the
Beginning
and the End, which is, and which was and which is to come, the
Almighty;
I am the First and the Last, who am living and was dead; and behold I
live
for ever and ever; and I have the keys of Death and Hell. Bless O Lord!
this creature of earth wherein we stand; confirm O God! Thy strength in
us, so that neither the adversary nor any evil thing may cause us to
fail,
through the merits of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Let me remind you that Casting a Circle
is not
the same. Similar in some ways but not the same. Casting a Circle is
Ritual
for Witches who want to set up a circle for protection and it is not
the
same type of circle as the ones on my Magic circle page. I am not a
Witch
and I am not Wiccan.... and this is not a Wiccan web site.
I am a Magician/Sorcerer that mainly
practices Ceremonial
High Magic... so I am simply showing you what I use.
