Cruise 2001 Circle of One
This was just a simple fun one we did once while
on a cruise. We blessed glass stones
with happiness that we handed out to people on the ship as gifts. They had no
clue why we were giving them a pretty piece of glass.

Cast Circle
Smiles, laughter, and times of fun this Circle
casting has now begun. As above, so it
is below. Keep out all that would cause
us woe. As within, so it is without,
safe we'll be, there is no doubt. Three
times round this Circle's cast
Call Quarters
Eastern Waters where Trade Winds blow; we call to
you, your powers bestow. Wisdom and
truth within us to see, be here now, so mote it be.
Southern Waters with Tropical heat; we ask you to
aid our Magickal feat. Passion and
creation within us to see, be here now, so mote it be.
Western Currents where deep waters flow; we call
to you, your powers bestow. Courage and
healing within us to see, be here now, so mote it be.
Northern Secrets locked in icy sheet; we ask you
to aid our magickal feat. Success and
stability within us to see, be here now, so mote it be.
Invocation
The Lord and Lady have always been there for us,
since before time was. They were there
in the scents of the Earth in the whisper of the Wind in the warmth of the Sun
in the refreshing coolness of a Mountain Stream.
They have always been there for us, even before we
understood. They are there in the magick
of the Moonlight in the wonder of a Sunrise in the freedom of an Open Field in
the comfort of a Sheltering Forest.
Tonight, we ask them to join our Circle and be
with us as we celebrate laughter and light, growth and mystery during our travels.
Great Rite
The flowing waters obtained from a rushing
waterfall symbolize the energy of the God.
The still waters obtained from a serene pool
symbolize the energy of the Goddess.
As the water from the falls represents the male
and the water from the pool represents the female, the two joined together
represent the God and Goddess as one.
Release Quarters
Elemental Waters you have protected us well. The lessons learned will continue to
dwell. We release you now as we lift the
spell. Go with our blessing. Hail and
Farewell.
Open Circle
As again we
walk around this Circle to release, though the boundary now is gone, our
laughter will not cease. This Circle is
open but not broken Merry Meet, Merry Part and may we Merry Meet Again.
