Circle of Fire
A practical guide to the symbolism
& practices of modern Wiccan Ritual
(Second Revised Edition)
By Sorita dEste & David Rankine
Wicca is an initiatory magickal tradition
incorporating both Pagan spiritual philosophies and
witchcraft practices, with ceremonial magick. In doing
so it combines magick, mysticism and spirituality into
an experiential, practice based tradition, which works
with the divine as both masculine and feminine, emphasising
growth through balance and discipline. It provides a
spiritual way of life, constantly growing and evolving,
placing the responsibility for spiritual growth and
fulfillment firmly back into the hands of the individual.This
book explores the core practices of the Wiccan Tradition,
providing insights on the symbolism and the ceremonies,
including:
* The divine feminine & masculine,
Goddess & God
* Wiccan ritual structure
* The ritual tools
* Planning your ritual
* Preparing your temple space
* The magick circle
* The Guardians of the Watchtowers
* Ritual content (including spells, divination &
invocation)
* Cakes and wine
* Ritual refinements (including the use of visualisation
and voice)
* Purification and psychic protection
* Ritual timing (including lunar, planetary, solar and
elemental)
* Elemental and other magickal gestures
