To purify a sacred space, during the sixth hour after sunrise of the first or eight hour after sunset
concecrate an aromatherapy bowl or small cooking pot by passing it through the smoke of frankincense and sprinkling it with blessed water, saying: "I consecrate this container to aid in my
Craft, that the spell I now weave will take hold and last." Heat spring water in the bowl over a tea
light or in the pot on the burner. When the water is hot, add the following herbs, speaking after each-
star anise: "Let all negativity be deflected from this place"; one bay leaf: "As the scent of this leaf moves
through this place, may purification enter into this space"; one teaspoon sage: "Through sage I now
make this spell manifest, that with peace and protection this space will be blessed. For as I will, so
mote it be!"
