I am getting ready to write my own personal spell book and one thing I am a little confused on is finishing off the spell. There are different methods..
Tying components into a packet..putting under your pillow or bed.
Burying components.
Burning components and scattering to wind.
What types of spells would you end how. Also I've got earth, air and fire..were would water come in...not talking about the whole ritual.. I am talking about what you do with the components at the end.
Also say you used a red stone that you don't want to dispose.. what do you do with it. After everything is done and circle is closed do you remove it from altar and then cleanse it. Or wait a day or....
How about food offerings or dough coins as money offerings. What do you do with them and at what point....
I know all about corrispondences and invoking and thanking and offering but all this is something I have not been able to clear up.
I can jsut see it now. I do my spell.. Perfect ritual.. Got all the energy going, a perfectly poetic spell chant, the visuallization, all the appropriate components I could get my hands on, I remember to call all I intend to, invoked the proper deity(if necessary) and remember to thank everyone in the exact reverse order without leaving anyone out. I close the circle and center myself and I look down at my altar and see all this stuff and wonder..."Ugh, now what do I do with all this stuff?!"
