Pink spring fullmoon ritual by Patrick McCleary

Circle Casting
Walk in a deosil manner, from the Eastern Quarter back to the Eastern Quarter. Drawing the
boundary of the circle with your athame.
Quarter Calls
We call upon the element of air, and the change that it brings, to join us in circle and aid us in
this rite. (invoking pentagram) So mote it be!
We call upon the element of fire, and the passion it brings, to join us in circle and aid us in this
rite. (invoking pentagram) So mote it be!
We call upon the element of water, and the love that it brings, to join us in circle and aid us in
this rite. (invoking pentagram) So mote it be!
We call upon the element of earth, and the strength that it brings, to join us in circle and aid us
in this rite. (invoking pentagram) So mote it be!

When done the High Priest says the following:
Four Points around us and Four Spirits we have called
With Love and Light we have no fright
With Strength and Truth we bear much fruit
And as we receive Power and Blessings
So do we offer up Thanksgivings

Then the High Priestess says the statement of Intent:
We come here between the paths
And between the worlds,
To honor the Old Gods and the Old Ways.
At this Pink Spring Moon we gather
To remember that as the Wheel turns
And we move forward through Spring
That some things end but new things begin

Goddess Invocation
(this is done by the High Priest)
Hail Mother full of Magick, we call you here
Hail Mother full of Love, we honor you here
Hail Mother full of Power, we worship you here
Hail Mother full of Magick, we call you here
Join us in our Circle tonight

God Invocation
(this is done by the High Priestess)
We Call you, Lord of Earth and Sky
We Call you, King of Fire and Water
We Praise you, Oak and Sun King
We Praise you, Greenman God
Join us in our Circle tonight

Ritual Working
Either the High Priest or High Priestess can say the next part:
The Pink Moon tonight reminds us of the flowers that have begun to bloom around us with the
coming of Spring. This is a time to begin new things and to lend our energies to them.
The High Priestess holds up the chalice of water to the sky and let the silvery moonlight shine on
it. (If She has risen yet that is, if not just visualize her energy shining upon it). She says:
Blessed Mother, let your light, presence and wisdom shine down upon this chalice. Imbue the
water with the foresight to see the right path ahead. So that as we drink we know the steps to
take to bring our hopes and wishes to fruit.

The chalice is then passed around, deosil, to all participants. They may either ask aloud for the
wisdom they seek or do so quietly.

When all have drank from the chalice, then the High Priestess can ask if anyone has any other
workings or magic that they need to do this night. If so then the group can work together to raise
energy for those purposes.

Cakes & Ale
Pick up the chalice and then the plate of food and raise them one at a time to the Heavens to
receive Their blessing.
Flesh of my Flesh (lift the Plate)
Blood of my Blood (lift the Chalice)
Body of my Body
We are of Them
As They are of Us
Joined in Love and Light
Married in Strength and Truth
Showered in Power and Blessings
We Drink from Her womb
We Eat from His hand

Drink from the chalice and then eat from the plate of food feeling Their Love and Strength.
So that we always remember our Love for Them and Their Love for Us

Pour out a libation and leave some food for the Earth and for the Gods.

Bidding Farewell to the Gods
Blessed Mother, we thank you for your presence in this rite
Go if you must, stay if you will
Hail and Farewell!

Sacred Father, Horned One, we thank you for your presence in this rite
Go if you must, stay if you will
Hail and Farewell!

Quarter Dismissals
We thank you, element of earth, for your presence in this circle. We bid you hail and farewell!
We thank you, element of water, for your presence in this circle. We bid you hail and farewell!
We thank you, element of fire, for your presence in this circle. We bid you hail and farewell!
We thank you, element of air, for your presence in this circle. We bid you hail and farewell!
Circle Dismissal
Walk the circle widdershins drawing the energy of the circle back into the blade of your athame.
The circle is open, but unbroken. May the peace of the Lord and Lady be forever in our hearts!
