Earth Rite

Rite For The Earth
Light no candles. Burn no incense. Go to the wilds to perform this spell, a place far from the haunts of humans. If this is impossible, work this rite in your place of magic. There, have ready a potted plant or four plain stones. (Don't use mined quartz crystals.) Sit on the ground. Place your hands upon the dirt beneath you (or onto the plants or stones, if inside). Visualize the Earth from space as a blueish-white sphere of positive, whole, healed energy. Experience it as a living organism. When your ready, say these or similar words:
"Pure are the caves and planes; Pure are the winds and skies; Pure are the lakes and rills; Pure are the clouds and rains; Pure are the woods and trees; Pure are the valleys deep; Pure are the bays and seas." Renew your visualization, then begin again:
"Pure are the birds that fly; Pure are the hounds and bats; Pure are the fish and Whales; Pure are the hares and cats; Pure are the owls and snakes; Pure are the stags and deer; Pure are the lizards green; Pure are all creatures here."
Once again, renew your visualization. Feel the Earth. Block all thoughts of the ravages that our species have subjected to our planet. See the Earth as a healed, whole being. Then say these words or what ever words come to mind:
"As I Receive your energy, now receive mine." Pour your personal power out through your palms and into the Earth (or the stones or plant). Gently send it spiraling down into our planet, lending it the strength to survive. Willingly give of yourself for a few moments while visualizing that shining blue planet hanging in the sky.
After a few moments, end the ritual by lifting your hands and standing. (If performed this rite indoors, place the stones or the potted plant onto the ground outside to allow the Earth to absorb the energy.)
It is done.
