SELF BLESSING
Ed Fitch. From the early 1960's
This should be performed at the New Moon or at other time of need. It is not to
be performed promiscuously.
May be used as a minor dedication or as a minor exorcism to banish any evil
influences which may have formed about the person.
Perform this ritual in a quiet place, free from distractions, and nude.
You will need the following:
Salt - about ¼ teaspoon.
Wine - about an ounce.
Water - about ½ oz.
Candle
The result is a feeling of peace and calm. It is desirable that the participant
bask in the afterglow so that she may meditate and understand that she has
called the attention to the Godhead to herself, asking to grow close to the
Godhead in both goals and wisdom.
When you are ready to begin, sprinkle the salt on the floor and stand on it.
Light the candle. Let the warmth of the candle be absorbed into your body. Mix
the water into the wine, meditating on your reasons for performing the self
blessing.
Bless me Mother, for I am your child.
Dip the fingers of your right hand into the mixed water/wine and anoint the
eyes.
Blessed be my eyes that I may see your path.
Anoint the nose.
Blessed be my nose, that I may breathe your essence.
Anoint the mouth.
Blessed be my mouth that I may speak of you.
Anoint the breast.
Blessed be my breast that I may be faithful in my work.
Anoint the loins.
Blessed be my loins, which bring forth the life of men and
women as you have brought forth all creation.
Anoint the feet.
Blessed be my feet, that I may walk in your ways.
Remain and meditate for a while.
