Seeking Your Purpose
Necessary Enhancements and Magickal Tools
The necessary tools for this spell include any tools you have chosen for your formation as described below. You must have:
- a small clear quartz crystal and a small piece of amethyst
- a drawstring bag or something that holds them together (A handkerchief or piece of cloth would work; however, do not put them in the bag yet.)
Candles
You will also need one purple candle placed in front of you.
Formation
All spells should begin with casting a circle, which is your shield of protection. If you are using a triangle or a square, cast your circle first and then cast your formation within it.
The best formation for this spell is the triangle or a circle. Cast your formation using a wand, a knife, an extended arm with fingers pointed, salt, or other material items you may have chosen.
Direction to Face
This spell is most effective if you are facing east. Arrange your candles as stated above and any tools or enhancements that will be in your formation so that they will be in front of you when you are sitting facing east.
Moon Phase
This spell will work best if cast during the Full Moon or Waxing Phase of the Moon because we are hoping to increase good possibilities just at the Moon is increasing as it waxes to full.
Day of the Week
The most favorable days of the week to cast this spell would be on Sunday, Monday or Thursday.
Before You Start Your Spell
Make sure you have no distractions.
Turn phones off if possible.
Play soothing music.
Keep the lights dim.
Wash your hands or shower before you begin.
Light incense if you are using it.
Gather everything you need and have it close at hand.
Draw your formation.
Ask your higher power to allow the information to flow through you.
Affirmation
Affirmation to be read within your formation before you actually begin your spell.
In the luminous rays of the Moon, I ask with somewhat a sense of frustration: Why am I here? What is my purpose? Do I have a special place or goal I should be pursuing?
Am I being anxious, for I have not yet found this special accomplishment I am to bring into being? Am I pressing something that is not yet to be revealed to me? Do I feel, as the years march on, that the time is now because I say it is now? I don’t know. Tell me, help me, and bring me clarity.
Perhaps I am already doing what I am meant to do. Perhaps my vanity thinks I should be contributing on a much higher level. Everyone has his or her purpose. I look at nature. The ants have their place and so do the eagles.
Will I change the world? Am I meant to be a support person for someone else? Am I helping the planet every time I give a warm smile and nod to a stranger? Must everything be so grand, as for all people to see our good deeds and acknowledge them? Maybe I already am fulfilling my purpose and am not aware of it. Bring me guidance through the wisdom of the all-knowing beings and energies that are enlightened. Make me aware if I have already reached my goal or if I am about to enter onto the path that leads toward it.
My age and desire have nothing to do with it. It is my higher power that knows the way.
I will be patient. In my patience I will learn what my true purpose is. I let go of the desire to know and accept that things will evolve according to the universal plan. I am here, I am ready.
AND SO IT IS.
How to Perform the Spell
Take your gemstones and place them in your bag or cloth. While holding the bag, recite the following incantation:
These stones I hold are conductors too,
With answers and visions that will come through.
In my dreams, I will see what’s real,
My destiny to be revealed.
Conclude with any statement that signifies closure of the ceremony in your mind such as “And so it is,” “Blessed be,” or “Amen.” Now extinguish your candles and release your formation.
Sleep with the bag of stones under your pillow or next to the bed.
Pay attention to your dreams for the next three days. Look for the symbols within your dreams. The answers are there for you.
