Close the Circle

 

Cakes and Wine

This circle hath ended,
The rites here are done,
By the light of the moon
This circle is free, released whole and pure,

The circle here hath ended,
Open but never broken,
This is my will,
Now my ritual has ended
So mote it be

 

It's traditional to eat after ritual, and this can be a social part of the ritual if you are working in a group. It doesn't have to literally be 'cakes and ale'.

You may choose to use foods that suit the nature of the ritual. This is another aspect of the grounding you did earlier.

By eating and drinking, you can focus yourself back to the physical world.
