Casting Instructions for ‘To Find the Truth’
Place the thyme into the dish and say:
“Clarification I now require
So that truth is spoken
Let what is hidden now
Be brought into the open”.
Light the candle and say:
“Speak truth with passion
And goodbye to caution
As the truth is said
May I not be misled”.
Allow the candle to burn down until the wax drips into the herbs. Bury the cooled wax and herbs, preferably at a crossroads, having first blown any loose herbs to the wind.
The herb thyme is said to bring courage, which is-often needed to bypass our inhibitions. The colour-red often represents sexual passion, but here is much-more the passion for truth. Do remember therefore-that sometimes the truth can hurt, and you may-have been being protected.
- Handful of thyme
- Red candle
- Flat dish or pentacle on which to put the herbs
