Animal Wisdom Spell

Perform this spell on a full moon or during Litha.
You will need:

• three brown candles (they should be the same type and size, as well as small in size)
• a tarot deck
• your book of shadows to record your insights

Place the candles in the North, Southeast, and Southwest spaces of your altar
but close enough together so that you can easily watch their flames
simultaneously. Light the candles and begin your meditation. As you watch
the candle flames, empty your mind of unnecessary thoughts. Allow an image
of an animal to enter the arena of your mind. When one does, say:
“Grant me wisdom, beloved being of The Goddess.”
With your intuition, you may “hear” words spoken by this animal, or see
words appear in the arena of your mind. The animal may lead you to a place
in your imagination. Allow it to happen. When you are ready, take your book
of shadows and simply record everything you have seen and heard, like this:
a wolf
the forest
pine trees
a small, running stream
the word “focus”
the word “again”
the word “action”
Do this meditation two more times, recording what you see and hear. Allow
the candles to burn down and let the book of shadows sit for a day. Then,
take time to research all of the symbols you saw and the words you heard,
and reflect on what that knowledge and wisdom mean to you, in your life,
and on your current path.
