A Spell for Wise Decisions

This spell is cast to bring better discernment to the worker and is particularly useful when faced with serious decisions.

Materials:
  • 2 small dried twigs approximately 3 inches long
  • a yellow or white candle
  • a length of twine
  • a small amount of dry soil or sand (about a cup)
Light the candle and place it on a flat surface, such as a tabletop. Next, spread the soil or sand evenly on the surface in front of the candle. Take one of the twigs and draw a circle in the sand/soil. Lay the twigs vertically on either side of the circle you’ve drawn. Make sure the twigs do not touch the circle or each other. Say the following:
Though this circle is unbroken,
With choices even side-by-side,
Let these words that I have spoken,
Break the circle and decide.
Pick up the twigs and hold them together, side-by-side, and bind them securely with the twine. Never untie the twigs. Extinguish the candle. Sweep the sand or soil away. Keep the bound twigs with you when important choices or decisions need to be made.
