Hospitality

Objects Required Break-Down
Figure of a Lion or Wolf: I think a Lion serves best, though you could also substitute a wolf or some other pack/social animal as that helps you to formulate a servitor/artificial elemental that has the sensibilities for the task at hand. Mine is a small stone statue of a lion. Though any material will do, stone, bone, wood, and other natural materials act as anchors for energy and information more easily.

A Piece Of Smooth Hematite: I use a small sphere, but any piece that has been polished so that it shines will do. A shape that appeals to you for symbolic reasons is also helpful. The crystal needs to have its natural tendency to collect and remove negativity amplified and programmed to receive what the Lion gathers.

A Candle And/Or Candle Holder: Depending on how often you plan on using the spell, charge and pattern a candle and/or a candle holder to provide the Lion with power. Use toning, visualization, and whatever techniques you prefer to fill the Candle/Holder with life force.


Enlivening the Lion or Wolf

Hold the figurine of the Lion/Wolf in your hands. Superimpose the image of a living, breathing lion/wolf onto the statue. See it as life size or larger. See the muscles ripple, the mane sway, the roar or howl rumble in your ears. See the statue glow and fill with life. Breathe in prana and blow it into the statue. Continue until it feels warm with life. Then say with a voice of command and power:

"Live And Breathe, Keeper Of Peace
Live And Breathe, Bringer Of Joy
Live And Breathe, Keeper Of Rules
Live And Breathe, Bringer Of Warmth
Live And Breathe, Binder Of Strife
Live And Breathe, Giver Of Comfort
Live And Breathe, Binder Of Anger
Live And Breathe, Giver Of Shelter
Live And Breathe, Tender Of Hospitality
Power Of Charisma Be With You
Power Of Presence Be With You
Power Of Law Be With You
Answer To The Name Of __________ (3x)
Awaken When Called By Name And Flame
Rest When The Flame Is Extinguished
So Mote It Be And Let It Be Bound."

The enlivening is done the first time the spell is to be cast, and then every several months as needed to refresh the work. Place the Lion, the Stone, and the Candle where they will be used or store them. Ideally the Lion should see your home even when not in use.


Casting the Spell.
Light the Candle and see it flare with life force. Touch the Lion if possible and say:
"Awaken _________ And Feed From The Flame
While The Flame Burns Guard This Home And Hearth
Roam About This House As The Guide And The Guardian Of Hospitality
Mark The Bounds Of Fellowship And Etiquette
Clear The Air Of Negativity And Bring It To This Stone
Patrol Amongst Us And Remind Us Of Our Better Natures
Come To Me And Give Report If I Am Needed
Heed The Letter And The Spirit Of These Words, _________
Now And Always."

While the spell is in play, be mindful of the state of the Candle and messages from the Lion.

Dismissing the Spell.
Snuff the Candle and thank the Lion by name. As soon as possible, pick up the Stone (Hematite), and please it with salt water, incense, and running water. Then return the objects to their customary positions.
 

Notes

• The boundaries can be the house, the house plus fenced in or marked off yard, etc. There must be a clear demarcation. For reasons of energy expenditure, efficacy, and right of law and spirit the line between in and out of your space is critical.
• Do not leave this running all the time. It costs energy and will interfere with hard discussions that are healthy in needed in life.
