"Air Spell for Inspiration" Added On: 01-12-02, 04:00 PM (PST) This chant can be recited to enhance your communication skills for some event or presentation, or you can use it simply to aid you in spellcrafting. It also helps when you are needing inspiration for some written project, especially if you are being plagued with writer's block. I use one white candle, anointed with lavender oil. This spell is best done during the waxing moon or when the Moon is in Libra, Aquarius, or Gemini. Since this spell relies upon invoking the Air Elementals, it is strengthened by the use of incense. Light the anointed candle and the incense. Visualize yourself finding the inspiration you need. You may also choose to call upon Brighid, the Goddess of poetic inspiration, before you invoke the Air Elementals. Then recite the following: Hail to thee, Watchtowers of the East! Ye Spirits of Air and Communication! By flame of fire and incense smoke, Ye Elementals I now invoke! Bless me with the words I need To the Muses I give heed. May they aid me in my speech And touch the heart I need to reach May they aid me in my spell To ethically craft and bind it well. These final two lines may be omitted if you are not working on a spell at the time. Or you may omit the two lines above them, as fits your situation. Blessed be! Oakmaiden
