Ritual Tips for Working with the Nature & Elemental Spirits

When working with the Elements, it is best to know the Elemental Energies that Nature Provides. Different Ritual Prescriptions are Prescribed during a Cowry Shell Divination based on the forces of adversity at hand. These are just suggestions. Use common sense and also be conscious of your offering when invoking words.

• If you want to keep something close, bury it in your backyard.
• If you want to attract something, bury it under the front door step.
• If you want to destroy its influence, burn it.
• If you want it to move away and sink, throw it in running water.
• If you want to disperse it to a distance, throw it into a crossroads.
• If you want to fix its influence, inter it in a five-spot pattern.
• If you want it to work by means of spirits, bury it in a graveyard.
• If you want to hide its point of origin, conceal it in a tree.
• If you want to work in secret, give it in food or drink.
• If you want it to work by stealth, hide it in clothing or on objects.
• If you want its influence to begin or strengthen, throw it to the East.
• If you want its influence to end or weaken, throw it to the West.
• If you want its influence to rise and fall cyclicly, float it in the tidal mouth of a large river, where the tide meets the stream.

Setting Up Your Ritual for Success:

1) Stay Aligned: Be in a connected, Spiritually aware state as much as possible. This eases the flow of manifestation, while creating Sacred Space.

2) Listen for Guidance: Keep your Intuitive Gifts/Psychic Ability ears peeled. Higher powers will nudge you about actions to take, if there are any.

3) Follow It: Do what you are guided to do, no matter how ODD (unless it's unethical). Seriously, this can be surreal.

4) Get OUT of the Way: Avoid doubt, worry, fear & impatience. If you can't be Optimistic, keep it out of your mind.
