How to bless water is explained.

Materials Needed:

  • 1 tsp of Rose Water (optional)
  • 3 tbsp Sea salt or Kosher salt
  • 1 small bowl of Spring Water
  • 1 clean glass container
  • 1 new compact mirror
  • 1 storage bottle (small)

Ritual:

  1. Cleanse and sterilize the bowl and glass container with boiling water. Insure that you have total privacy during preparation. Time: Midnight during a Full Moon phase.
  2. Place: Out of doors under the moon, or near a window that will reflect the light of the moon. Set out your work cloth and all ingredients upon it.
  3. Take five or six deep breaths to relieve the stress of the day.
  4. Cast your magick circle if you wish.
  5. Hold your arms outstreched in the Goddess position (arms out at the sides like you are cradling the Universe, palms up.) Say: " In the cloak of the midnight hour I call upon the Ancient Power, [may add:I seek the presence of the Lady and Lord] To bless this water that I will pour." At this point, you should feel the energy of Earth Mother move about your feet and head.
  6. Feel your own energy expand around your navel and then unite with Divinity. Take your time; no need to rush.
  7. Add the rose water to the spring water.
  8. Pick up the bowl of water, hold it toward the light of the moon, and say: "In my hands I hold the essence of the Gods. I hereby cleanse and consecrate this water to Divinity that it may be used for positive acts only and may aid me in my magickal work."
  9. Feel the energy of the Moon Goddess pulsate down into the water. Imagine her silver light descending from the heavens and impregnating both the water and yourself. You will feel a ''glowy'' sensation.
  10. Set the water down and pick up the salt. Feel the power moving in your arms as you raise the salt toward the moon. Say: "In my hands I hold the essence of Earth Mother; she whose bounty sustains all living creatures. I hereby consecrate this salt to Divinity that it may be used for positive acts only and may aid me in my magickal work."
  11. As with the water, imagine the energy of the Moon Goddess empowering the salt. Set the salt down and pour a little into the bowl of water, and stir clockwise three times.... Repeat this process twice more. With the bowl in your left hand (recieving) and the mirror in your right (sending), reflect the light of the moon off the mirror and into the bowl. After a few moments say: "This liquid is now pure and dedicated to the Lord and Lady. It is free from all negativity in any time and any space."
  12. Set the bowl and mirror down and hold out both of your hands, palms down, over (not touching) the bowl, about one inch above the water. Let the vibrations of your body come alive.
  13. Open your third eye chakra and imagine a glowing purple light emanating from it.
  14. Form and open triangle with your hands over the water and project the light into it. In your mind, see the water change color and glow. Feel the power and energy flow from your head down through your arms and up from your feet and out from your arms simultaneously. When you feel the energy begin to dissipate, slowly lower your hands and say: " As I will [So mote it be:Let it Be:whatever you are comfortale with] With the free will of all And harm to none This formula is done! "
  15. You may ground your energy in two ways. *Either place your hands physically upon the ground and feel the energy drain into Earth Mother, or *Imagine your energy as a force field around you, and quietly step back out of the skeleton of energy and watch it collapse in upon itself and melt into the ground.
  16. Transfer the water to your storage container and store it away until you are ready to cleanse and concencrate your sacred space.

 

 

**The Kwan Yin Water Blessing

  1. Place the water in a container, place both hands on the container, sense your energy coming down through the crown and into your heart, then out through your hands into the water.
  2. Hold the water up to the moon and say. " With these hands, with this heart,and with the pure intention of god, this water is now blessed. Removing and transmitting all impurity and transmitting it to the light forever with peace. Amen, so mote it be "(or whatever you feel comfortable with ending with).

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries had its humble beginnings as an idea of a few artisans and craftsmen who enjoy performing with live steel fighting. As well as a patchwork quilt tent canvas. Most had prior military experience hence the name.

 

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries.

 

Vendertainers that brought many things to a show and are know for helping out where ever they can.

As well as being a place where the older hand made items could be found made by them and enjoyed by all.

We expanded over the years to become well known at what we do. Now we represent over 100 artisans and craftsman that are well known in their venues and some just starting out. Some of their works have been premiered in TV, stage and movies on a regular basis.

Specializing in Medieval, Goth , Stage Film, BDFSM and Practitioner.

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries a Dept of, Ask For IT was started by artists and former military veterans, and sword fighters, representing over 100 artisans, one who made his living traveling from fair to festival vending medieval wares. The majority of his customers are re-enactors, SCAdians and the like, looking to build their kit with period clothing, feast gear, adornments, etc.

Likewise, it is typical for these history-lovers to peruse the tent (aka mobile store front) and, upon finding something that pleases the eye, ask "Is this period?"

A deceitful query!! This is not a yes or no question. One must have a damn good understanding of European history (at least) from the fall of Rome to the mid-1600's to properly answer. Taking into account, also, the culture in which the querent is dressed is vitally important. You see, though it may be well within medieval period, it would be strange to see a Viking wearing a Caftan...or is it?

After a festival's time of answering weighty questions such as these, I'd sleep like a log! Only a mad man could possibly remember the place and time for each piece of kitchen ware, weaponry, cloth, and chain within a span of 1,000 years!! Surely there must be an easier way, a place where he could post all this knowledge...

Traveling Within The World is meant to be such a place. A place for all of these artists to keep in touch and directly interact with their fellow geeks and re-enactment hobbyists, their clientele.
