A glimpse inside the book: Self-Dedication Ritual This ritual, performed by a solitary practitioner, is one of the main tenets of modern Wicca, demonstrating the personal power of self-dedication and self-direction rather than following the Gardnerian belief that one must be dedicated and directed by an initiated High Priest or High Priestess. It’s important that you write the prayer yourself. Your own words will be much more powerful, and verbalizing your intentions is part of the magick. On the night of the full moon, spend some time centering and grounding yourself. You may wish to take a ritual bath before you begin and dress in something that makes you feel special. When you are ready, cast a circle. Directions: Light the silver candle and say: I wish to be dedicated to the Goddess, whose love I feel in the moonlight. Lady of the Moon, I light this candle in your honor. Place the Goddess offering in front of the Goddess candle. Light the gold candle and say: I wish to be dedicated to the God, whose love I feel in the warm rays of sunlight. Lord of the Sun, I light this candle in your honor. Place the God offering in front of the God candle. Look intently at the burning candles and say: I ask the Element of Fire to bless and consecrate my heartfelt intention to follow the Path of Wicca. Blessed be! Light the incense. Waft it over your whole body and say: I ask the Element of Air to bless and consecrate my heartfelt intention to follow the Path of Wicca. Blessed be! With the water, anoint the tops of your feet, knees, heart, lips, and center of your forehead and say: I ask the Element of Water to bless and consecrate my heartfelt intention to follow the Path of Wicca. Blessed be! Sprinkle a little salt on the tops of your feet and say: I ask the Element of Earth to bless and consecrate my heartfelt intention to follow the Path of Wicca. Blessed be! Spend a few moments in meditation, allowing the love of the Goddess and God embrace you. When you’re ready, read your prayer, several times if you wish. Thank the Goddess and the God for their presence during your sacred rite, then open the circle. What You’ll Need: A silver candle, a gold candle An offering for the Goddess (flower, crystal, essential oil, herb, or natural object) Incense Water Salt A prayer of dedication, written by you A lighter
