Merry meet
Welcome to my BOS. I follow a path which is a mixture of celtic wicca and celtic shamanism.
I'm trying to keep some of my real BoS on this forum in case I lose it or it gets damaged. I hope you find some of this helpful :D .
Blessed Be and may the Goddess bless you!!!

Prayer To Brighid

Mighty Brighid, keeper of the flame,
blazing in the darkness of winter.
O goddess, we honor you, bringer of light,
healer, exalted one.
Bless us now, hearth mother,
that we may be as fruitful as the soil itself,
and our lives abundant and fertile.



Blessing For Someone

May the fire give it's warmth to you
May the water flow with you
May the the spirit fill you
And may the Goddess and God
Watch over and protect you always
(name) Blessed Be

Rainy Day Spell To Clear Negative Energy

You need;
-yourself
-rain

Stand under the rain for a while. Let it pour over you and as it does visualize the water taking all you negativity with it as it flows off you. When you are wet through say in a strong whisper:
'Magickal waters that fall from above,
cleanse me of hate and fill me with love,
I desire to possess no negativity,
Only positivity should flow through me.
As I will, So Mote It Be!'

Oh Mother carry me, child I will always be
Oh Mother carry me, down to the sea
