Knowing Yourself

Gift/Power

  That is just one starting point in discovering yourself.

Another, is to think about your thoughts and things that happened when you thought them. I am talking about wishes, prayers, etc.

  Your fascinations are another clue to knowing yourself. Do you find yourself fascinated by certain things in the craft? For instance stones. Or maybe gardening, or your love for animals.

  Also think about any dreams you may have had. Just think about yourself. Most of us know our gifts already but we like to have it confirmed. If you can talk to family members or friends about what you suspect of yourself. Or you can simply think about what people have always said about you.

  Meditating on this matter, can also be some help. I suggest if you do this, to call upon your Spirit Animal to help you.

  Perhaps you still can not think or have no clue what your gift could possibly be. Don't force it to come to you. It will in time.

Sometimes our gifts may be dormant and now quite awaken yet.

Our natural instinct would be to awaken them. If you truly feel you are ready for this, then try doing this spell. Once your gift is revealed to you, there is no going back. Your gift will be active and ready for you to use.

However, if it is not used, the energy from it can be a bit overwhelming until it disappates slowly. Which will eventually go back into a dormant stage.  I do not know exactly how long this will take, because it does vary from person to person.

Once you know your gift, read up about it. Try testing it out on something small. Excercise your gift. It is yours, so use it.

Below is the Incantation to awaken your Power.

  Everyone wants to know what thier gifted power is. In order to know that, you have to know yourself. It is really quite simple. Who knows you better then yourself.

   Think back when you were a child and all those odd things that happened when you were around. Perhaps you were a child that had a odd quirk about them. Explore that quirk. When you got upset, did anything strange happen? Were you able to know what people were about to say before they said them?  Were you someone who was always able to always get out of tight situations? 

  Just think back on things that had no explanation to you.

"By Air, Fire, Water, Earth and me

I chant these words three times three,

Pentacle power with points of five

Gifts of mine will come alive,

let it be known to me very soon

between the new and full moon."

Items Needed:

A Pentacle         A Crystal              Purple Candle             Glass bowl of Water

Burning Frankencense (can be incense)     Yellow cloth   black string/ribbon

This has to be done between a New and Full Moon.

Set Up:

Create a circle and then place your crystal to the North and say,

   "I place this Cystal for the element of Earth and direction of North

    to aid me in this spell in order to bring information forth."

Place the burning Frankencense to the East and say,

   "I place this Frankencense for the element of Air and direction of East

    to aid me in this spell so communication does not cease."

Place the purple candle to the South and say,

  "I place this candle for the element of Fire and the direction of South

   to aid me in this spell so I can hear what I need from the spiritual mouths."

Place the bowl of water to the West and say,

  "I place this bowl of water for the element of Water and direction of West

   to aid me in this spell so my intent will come through the best."

Spell:

Hold the pentacle in your hand and face east.  Say these words then hold the pentacle over each element item you have, starting with the burning incense then to the purple candle and so on.

Now pick up your yellow cloth and place it over your pentacle. Lay it down. Then pick up your Crystal and kiss it. Carry it over to the burning incense and hold it in the smoke of it. Then quickly pass part of the crystal through the flame of the purple candle stick. Then drop it in the

water bowl. 

Now take the Crystal out of the bowl and place it in the middle of your yellow cloth. Wrap it up and tie it using the black string/ribbon. Leave it laying on the pentacle. Then say the incantation again two more times.  Bury your cloth into the ground by a tree.   Your gift should be revealed to you

                 within a month time.  Try to pay attention to things happening around you.
