Casting A Circle

Before sprinkling salt and/or water around you to bless the area before creating the circle, ask the Gods to bless the salt and/or warter. Hold the dish upwards to the sky saying or similar:
          "Artemis, I pray to you asking to please bless this salt."
After doing so, go ahead and sprinkle the area of the circle asking the Gods to bless the circle you are about to create.

Stand, sit or lie according to the ritual you'll do. Raise your personal power by tightening your muscles. Vizulize it glowing as a ball of purplish-blue flame within you. Using your projective hand (the one you write with!), direct the energy out from you into a small magick circle (your hand acts as an energy director). Alternately, send out the energy in a clockwise circle around you with out moving. Feel the circle shimmering and pulsing with energy around you.
