Consecration of Ritual Tools
Items Needed:
- Candles
- Sea Salt
- Incense and censer
- Cauldron w/ water
- Pentacle or plate
- Tool to be Consecrated
Light the candles, and the incense. If your path requires it, cast the circle of your choice. Place the tool or object to be consecrated upon a pentacle, or plate of sea salt. Touch the tool with the point of your athame or with your projective hand, and proclaim:
I consecrate you, (name of tool) to purify and cleanse you of all negativity, that you might aid me with my workings. By the powers of the Elements, you are consecrated.
Focus your energy upon the tool, and visualize all negativity and past associations fleeing your ritual tool. I prefer to see this as a black, shadowy mist rising from the tool and ascending into the heavens.
Now, while calling upon the Elements/Old Ones/etc. to consecrate the tool, pick it up with your projective hand and sprinkle with the salt, pass it through the incense smoke, through the candle flame, and then sprinkle with water from the cauldron. Hold the tool up to the sky, and proclaim:
I charge you by the Old Ones; by the Elemental Powers; the powers of the Earth, Air, Fire, and Water, that you shall aid me in all of my workings! Charge this by your power, Old Ones!
To strengthen the consecration, the tool should be put to use immediately.
