You don't need to be a Wiccan or pagan to cast a circle and invoke the Elemental energies of the Four Corners.
This is a simple guided ritual where we will invoke the Four Quarters of the Terrestrial sphere. The circle will be our temple, a sacred place to practice magic, meditations and spells. Calling the quarters is a way to purify the space and invite protection into our ritual.
Also known as the Watchtowers or Guardians, the quarters are spirits that rule over each direction: north, east, south, and west. Each is associated with one of the four classical elements: earth, air, fire, and water.
As we've seen in the Circle Visualization exercise, you don't need any tools to cast a magic circle, and it can be done anytime. However, for a more elaborate ritual, you may use these tools:
- Your wand or athame
- A bowl of salt
- A white candle
- A glass of water or your chalice
- And some incense of any kind
There are traditions of witches that use a wand to cast a circle, and others that use an athame or sword. For solitary practice, you should choose the one which feels right to you. If you have a specific spellwork in mind, choose an incense that matches your intention, and add extra candles if needed.
We will set this on the floor, but it can be done on any surface. Practice candle safety.
