Letter to the Deceased Ritual
Color of the day: Gray Incense of the day: Gardenia Incense of the day: Gardenia This was one of the days the ancient Romans set aside to communicate with the dead. During November, the spirit world is drawn closer to us, making it easier to contact those who have departed this earth. One way is to write a letter to the deceased. This is a very loving and solemn act which shouldn't be taken lightly. Begin the ritual in the evening at dusk. On a bare-wood table place the following: three candles, (one black, two white), one white feather, a piece of white paper, a black-ink pen, and a photograph of the deceased. Light all the candles and say: "You who have passed through heaven's gate, you who I mourn-receive this letter I'm about to write." Write your message using whatever words are on your mind. End the letter by wishing the spirit peace and rest. Extinguish the candles and fan the smoke toward heaven with the feather. Bury the letter facing the west. Your letter has been received. |
