Light the green candle, whilst saying the following words:

" I …NAME…,
STAND BEFORE THE GATES
OF THE WATCHTOWER OF THE NORTH.
I CALL FORTH THE
GUARDIAN SPIRIT OF EARTH
TO HEAR MY PLEA,
TO GUIDE AND ASSIST ME
AND PASS YOUR POSITIVE ENERGIES
THROUGH ME.
I BRING OFFERINGS
OF ...THIS PENTACLE...
ONTO THEE. "

The elements have now been called.

LIGHTING YOUR OSTARA CANDLES
TO CALL FORTH ON THE MOON GODDESS AND THE SUN GOD

Things you will need:

RAISING YOUR ENGERGIES SAYING THE WORDS
AND RELEASING YOUR ENERGIES

Things you will need:

Your written Ostara words.
Your cauldron.

Dance, sing or just sit tranquil for a while within the circle to raise your energies.

Then when you feel your energies are at their peak pick up the written words of the Ostara ritual and say them aloud:

" REJUVINATION AND REINCARNATION
ARE THE GIFTS YOU GAVE EACH OTHER,
AS YOU KNEW YOU COULD LOVE NO OTHER.
FROM FRIENDSHIP IT SHALL GROW,
'TIL ETERNAL LOVE YOU BOTH WILL KNOW.
WITH EQUAL DAY AND EQUAL NIGHT,
YOU WILL BOTH SET GOALS
WITHIN OUR SIGHT. "

Focus on the moment for a while before burning the written Ostara words in the flames of the sabbat candles. Place the burning sabbat words in to your cauldron and watch it burn.

You have now released the energies of the Ostara ritual in to the atmosphere.

EATING AND DRINKING A TOAST

Things you will need:

Your chalice.
A bottle of wine or juice.
A fresh loaf of bread or fruit cake.

Then spend a while to visualise your parents. When you are ready, pour some of the wine in to your chalice then in to the bowl of earth as an offering to the Moon Goddess and the Sun God.

Drink of the wine saying the following words as you do so:

" I …NAME…,
BREAK BREAD WITH YOU BOTH
MY SPIRITUAL PARENTS,
WITH THANKS FOR ALL
YOU HAVE GIVEN
TO ME AND MINE. "

BIDDING HAIL AND FAREWELL
TO THE MOON GODDESS AND THE SUN GOD

Things you will need:

Your candle snuffer.

" BROTHERS AND SISTERS HEAR MY CALL,
WITCHCRAFT'S CALLING YOU ONE AND ALL.
THE INFORMATION UPON THIS SITE,
WILL OPEN YOUR SENSES FROM THIS NIGHT.
OPEN YOUR EYES, TURN THE PAGE,
LET THE ENERGIES HIT YOU IN A BEAUTIFUL WAVE. "
