only-fragments: A spell to help an animal find their forever home Tools: Mortar and pestle Cauldron (or other fire safe container) Matches Writing utensil Ingredients: 1 bay leaf Catnip (for Bast) Lavender (love) Thyme (courage) Orange peel (luck) Mint (travel, protection) Open the spell as you would normally (casting a circle, etc). Grind together a pinch of catnip, lavender, thyme, mint, and orange peel while focusing on the intent of the spell. Write the animal’s name on one side of the bay leaf and the sigil on the other. While reciting the words below, light the bay leaf on fire and set it in your container with the other herbs. “Hail Bast, Lady of the Flame, Great Mother Cat! I ask you to lend Your energy to this working and help [animal’s name] find their forever home, a place where they may live out the rest of their life in love and peace. I send them the hope and strength to complete this journey and find their rightful family. With these words I release this energy to fulfill its intended purpose. Hail Bast, Lady of the Flame, Great Mother Cat!” Let the mixture burn itself out, then close the spell as you would normally. Some suggestions: While this was written to work with Bast, you could easily change the wording to use another deity associated with the animal of your choice (while perhaps trading out the catnip for an herb they prefer). I did the spell by an open window to give it the widest dispersal possible. You could also try writing the name of the rescue/shelter instead of a specific animal if you wanted to perform a more general spell. (Please let me know if you try this and if you’re successful, or if you have suggestions for changes!) -- source link
