In the heat of the July summer, who wouldn't welcome a bit of rain? This spell is best done in the morning. Spread a silver or grey cloth on the ground, and place a bowl of water in the center. After calling directions, chant:

Water of the sacred clouds,
Water of the ancient swells,
Rain and mist upon us pour,
The land will blossom evermore.

Place the water on one of your plants, infusing it with healthy blessings. In ancient Roman times this was the festival of Neptune, when shelters of leaves and branches were raised in fields to honor Neptune and ensure his help in bringing rain for the coming season. The locals would picnic under these cool structures. To further the spell, why not pack a fish lunch, think of Neptune, and eat al fresco?
