BELTANE SPELLWORK

Spellwork is a funny thing for me. I believe that people need to create their own spells as much and as often as possible. Since the majority of spellwork is about personal intent and prayer, using someone else’s spells is like wearing someone else’s shoes.   Well, ok, maybe not that gross but hopefully you get my point.

Remember, Spellwork is about making something *happen*, not about giving thanks.  It is about using and harnessing energies that float all around us and tunneling them into places that we want to use and grow with and from.  Spellwork, like many other things in a Pagan path, can be as elaborate or as a simple as lighting a candle with intention.

That said, here are some ideas for Beltane Spellwork -- they are about fetility....in whatever manner you are seeking fertility.  As discussed in this sabbat's Paperless Publication, fertility can come in so many forms.  Take some time during this sabbat's passing to really sit down and do a list of fertility goals in your life.

THEMES:
Fertility (again, get creative!!!)
Garden and growth of items
Focus on the continuing growth of the year
Earth Day (although it will have passed by Beltane, this is still an option to look at)
Forward movement -- such as job, school, goals
Growth of your mind -- your biggest asset
Honouring the passing waxing part of the year

IDEAS:
?  Fertility for personal growth -- getting back into school, committing to reading more about your Craft and path

 ?  Blessings of plants and herbs you have currently growing

?  Continuing growth during the last 7 weeks of the waxing part of the year, honouring the life-giving force of the Sun

?  Moving toward a better financial situation in the sense of habits, etc. during this waxing part of the year so the habits are more ingrained during the upcoming waning part of the year.

?  Giving thanks and honour for the good things that have happened during the past 6 months, gifts of the Goddess, gifts of your spellwork, etc.

?  Giving thanks that we have made it through yet another Mercury Retrograde
