ancestral altars and rituals
A gem of Samhuinn for my readers - a Retrieved from "Spirit Work "will not be published as a library even if it is useful for workers in the spirit.
Ancestral Shrines & Altars
Most ancient cultures and modern, yet retains a cult of the ancestors has the habit of keeping shrines and altars set up at any time. The shrine or altar of the house is where the ancestors are told of everything that happens in life, all our joys and sorrows. The offers are given, as is thought that the dead need them: the food we receive from our libations and burnt offerings of food. On the altars and shrines the ancestors are a resource for help and advice. Every time something is asked or received by the spirits of the dead, something has to be given in return. This can be anything from libations, and burnt offerings of food, incense, or because the fumes are like food for the spirits.
The ancestor shrine
The ancestral shrine can be anything from a small shelf at a table complete with pictures of dead loved ones and property, several candles, a bell, water, flowers, and a plate of 'offer for libations or food without salt. The cult provides that the altar cloth should be white and offers candles and white or blue. This is a devotional space to pay homage to their ancestors, especially those of your family. I have recommended a sanctuary for those who do not work They want to delve deeply into the spirit, but they want to honor their ancestors regularly.
The shrines can be eutilizzati for deals daily or weekly and are a good place to share the joys and sorrows of your life with your dead relatives. A good daily practice is to dedicate a portion of your meal for the dead to the shrine before sitting down to eat alone. Other good deals to be left to an ancestral shrine include their favorite foods from the dead, alcohol, tea, coffee, tobacco, flowers and incense. It 'best to offer only what the individual spirit favorite when he was alive. He had a sweet tooth? He was a smoker? Take these things into consideration when choosing for the right offer.
The ancestor altar
The ancestral altar is an altar full of work with dowsing tools as well as vessels with the spirit house the spirits of the dead. The altar must be large enough to hold your tools and supplies. The cloth covering should be in black for your work of necromancy. . The candles should be used necromantic black, and the candles on the altar and candles offer
Other supplies may include, personnel staff, or stick of blackthorn or yew, an incense burner or pot, a bowl bid and the cup, and one or more vessels for the spirito.Sia the cauldron or bowl should be cleaned and filled with fresh water and on the altar before each rite of necromancy. In general, the altar of the ancestors may include a set of tools and materials that can be used both outdoors and indoors, rather than having just a static altar in your home. If you do not want to have an altar at home for your work with the spirit, you can store supplies, and bring them out when you will use.
Spirit ships
The most commonly used to work regularly with the ancestors is a vessel for their spirit where it can live as long as you visit our world. Such vessels must always be devoted to this purpose and spirit that is invitation to remain at 'internal Haitian Voudou In such a ship is known as the Govi, which is a spirit pot that is home to the ancestral spirit of the priest (ESS) or even by Ghedi. In European Witchcraft, using a window of spirit (container) that can be filled with anything from cremation ashes, bones, or personal belongings of the deceased along with herbs that promote communication with the dead. A jar of spirit can also take the form of a fetish, like a real skull, wood, ceramic stuffed with hair or anything deceased relative. A quartz crystal is also a good addition, as many cultures around the world think that this stone has the ability to communicate with the spirits and keep them on the ground in our kingdom in order to better communicate with them. The ancestral spirits should never be bound or trapped in the ship, but will be free to come and go as they please. They should also always be called with love and not a pretender forzata.Questo communication may in fact have an impact.

Rituals of Necromancy
If you choose to summon a chthonic deity or the spirits of the dead to ask a question or ask a favor, time is important. For best results, perform the rituals in the period following sunset, dawn, midnight, black moon, waning moon, the autumn equinox, Samhain, the Winter Solstice, Imbolc, or the Equinox Spring. I met people who have adopted a policy of keeping doors open with the spirits of the dead in their home. E 'especially dangerous if you have children or do not live alone, it endangers not only themselves but also your family and roommates. Invite a strange spirit in the house is like entering a stranger met on the street in the house - could be both a better person, or both could kill you and rob you, you never know. The familiar spirits must be called only within a protective circle and must be banned later. Ancestral spirits have no need of formality, but make sure it is indeed your ancestor who is talking and not a demon or malicious impostor. This can be done by asking questions to which only your ancestor might know the answer or simply using their full name or the genealogy of base every time you summon.
To summon your ancestral spirits, call them, and burned incense to attract the spirits to help and communicate with them. You also need to burn an offertory incense to the spirits as food to sustain them, while visiting our kingdom. However, be sure not to burn incense-eating until you are certain you have summoned the spirit. If you are working with the gods, a shaman, a medium, a gatekeeper or pyschopomp should open the doors between worlds and let the spirits of the dead pass through the door - the most common is Hecate and Hermes. . A traditional offering to the gods is the olive oil and honey. Finally, no forget to send away what you invite. This is especially important if you work with an unknown spirit. Make sure it is not a spirit or a deity underworld, closes the door between worlds when the ceremony is over.
ritual offering to the spirits
This simple ritual is necessary: \u200b\u200b•
white corn flour, egg shell powder, or • chalk
a white candle with stand (do not forget matches or a lighter)
• food and / or a libation
• Incense (If more coal use incense)
• small garden trowel
Take your material el 'offer (s) and go to a fork or a cemetery. Both must have an intersection of at least three four-way. A juxtaposition of earth is preferred in order to dig a hole to let the offer. If the intersection has only access to a paved and dirt trails are near, be sure to leave only an offer of alcohol or incense instead of food so that you are not d 'burdens on the people who lead them. Better to use a cross with a low activity or time of day when there will be seen, in some areas the police may be called because of your supposed "satanic activity." Once a junction, draw a seal such as those shown below near the center, where the roads intersect if you can.
If you are in a graveyard, draw the seal of the tomb of your choice on the ground where the body should lie. If you're worried about the seal in the graveyard because you could be seen or accused of having done so, draw the seal into the ground with the index finger. Dig a small hole in the center of the seal and light a candle. Then clarify your intent and you are going to leave the offer. If it is a god, he can recite a spell or offertory invitation for them. If you bring tobacco or incense, burn them now. If you have a cigar, turn on the candle flame and take a few mouthfuls, blow the smoke on the seal, then insert the lit cigar in a hole. Pour the libation and / or supply of food in the hole and cover and move away without looking back. After performing this ritual, the witch may request the spirit or the gods to appear to ask anything you want to achieve something, anything, to ask for permission to collect the earth from the grave to use their magical powers and abilities or for . Where do you come all the legends that deal is "devils at the crossroads?
Consecration Spirit in the ritual vase
The ritual that follows can be used to consecrate a ship or fetish that will be used to work with the spirit of an individual or a group. For this ritual you require:
• A vessel (box, vase, jar, skull, or a fetish object)
• A white candle
• Incense Burner
• Coal •
ritual knife
• Personal belongings of the deceased
• Red powder or brick red, ocher powder mixed with water or red wine
• anointing oil (olive oil standard)
• Incense for summons (Ie, wormwood, sandalwood, copal ...)
• Incense offering (myrrh, pomegranate peel, sandalwood, ...)
Before the ship or fetish can be used to work with the spirit, must be run a ritual of consecration, to connect the spirit to the ship, and invite the spirit in it. The most common spirits within boxes are the spirits of those who practice family who have recently died or have been dead for generations.
The practitioner can add whatever is appropriate in the pot: a rosary ring, a letter written by the late, photographs, obituaries, flowers from the funeral, teeth, hair, nails, scraps of everything regard to the spirit in which the ship is intended. If you want to devote a fetish you could drill a hole in it to have a place to put such personal items. If the spirit that will last lavoraree is long dead, and personal items can not be obtained, using a piece of red wool, to create the connection.
Herbs can also be used in place of personal items, such as wormwood, marshmallow root, copal resin, or rate.
After sunset during the waning moon or dark, creating the space for worship ritual according to your tradition. Call the gods with whom you work with the guards at the gates of hell, and ask them to open doors and lift the spirit you want to work with. If it does not work with the Deity, call your spirit guide to help you open the door to the underworld.
If you are a soul, animals like owls and snakes psychopomp are well known.
Once this is done, place a white candle and the ship or the fetish on the altar. Anoint the candle with the oil is light in the name of the ancestors.
Grease the pan with the oil and the mixture of red ocher. Burning incense
evocation of the spirit is called by name as we know it or lineage, and invite them to reside in the vessel.
It 'better to have one spirit to the ship, but the spirit guides can get along when it's a fetish like the ancestors of witchcraft, the blood of your ancestors, or ancestors of a specific skill. Then, burn incense and offer signal your intention, the ship will be their home, when you endorse. Ask if they will agree to work with you to use the ship.
If you do not have second sight, watching the candle flame to flicker, and tremors of ignition for a "yes" or if the flame goes out or is inexplicably low for a "no".
Sometimes it is the incense that sparks will exit as a signal, piuttostola candle.
If the spirit agrees, show them the way to the ship and for you, biting her thumb with the knife ritual, or a sterilized needle, then with a drop blood anoint the forms of the ship with the drop of blood. If the vessel will be used by a group, each member will perform this action. The ship is now connected to you and spirit. If you prefer not to draw blood, you can add your "parts" or personal items (hair or nail clippings) into the ship. Burning incense
more deals.
Continue with a ritual that program works with spirit, and a Communion Rite with the ancestor as follow, or ask the spirit to return to the underworld, to your god or your driving or you will be asked to close the gates, and end of the rite.
Communion Ritual with 'Ancestor
This ritual is appropriate for an individual or group. We require: •

Building Your sacred space as you are protected usually do so within your tradition and culture, and call any gods of the underworld with which he worked as an assistant in the ritual. Use a stick personal ritual, or a pillar, tree, tree trunk or what used to access the World Tree (see create the circle and the World Tree for more information) and called the ancestors. Burning incense evocative and draw those with whom you would like to name.
If you do not know their name, list their ancestry *. If your ancestors are not (related to you by ties of blood literally) be very specific. Once you are sure you have called the proper spirit, invite them to share a meal with you. They will livelihood from it and your offering of incense, smoke and alcohol. Eat and drink with them.
The sharing of food connects the present with the ancestors you have gathered, both physically and spiritually.
This community does not mean you have to stand in solemn silence. Speak, Celebrate, and laugh as if you were at table with family and friends. This in itself is an offer that allows the dead to get a taste of life.
not asking for anything for the dead, the first few times you perform this ritual. If you start to have more than one fellowship per month, then it would be appropriate to make requests. It is better and more common to ask the blessings of prosperity, fertility and luck. After a further step these communications to more complex, you and your group might begin to ask the spirits for help in divination.
When you're finished, burn your incense in the notice, give a clear goodbye, and ask the ancestors to return to the underworld, according to your representation of the World Tree down. If you work with a
psychopomp, you can also ask them to direct their minds in the kingdom and close the door between worlds. End the ritual, close the space or the ritual circle, lower energies, and the ritual is over.
