Both: "I
conjure thee, O Sword (Athame), by these Names, Abrahach, Abrach,
Abracadabra, that thou servest me for a strength and defence in all
magical operations against all mine enemies, visible and invisible.
I conjure thee anew by the Holy Name Aradia and by the Holy Name
Cernunnos; I conjure thee, O Sword (Athame), that thou servest me
for a protection in all adversities; so aid me now !"
Again the man asperges,
and the woman censes, and the weapon is returned to
the pentacle, saying:
Both: "I
conjure thee, O Sword (Athame) of Steel, by the Great Gods and
Gentle Goddesses, by the virtue of the heavens, of the stars
and of the spirits who preside over them, that thou mayest receive
such virtue that I may obtain the end I desire in all things
wherein I shall use thee, by the power of Aradia and Cernunnos."
The Partner gives the
Fivefold kiss unto the owner of the weapon.
If the owner is not
present, or if the weapon is jointly owned by them both,
the man will give the
Fivefold kiss to the woman. For the final kiss upon
the mouth, the weapon
is suspended between their breasts, held there by the
pressure of their embrace.
As they seperate, the owner of the weapon
immediately uses it
to recast the Circle, but without words.
Notes:
If possible, lay sword with an already consecrated sword or athame.
It should, if possible,
be consecrated by both a man and a woman, both of whom
are initiated, and
both naked as drawn swords. During consecration, press down
on sword hard with
consecrated sword or athame. If possible partake of Cakes
and Wine first, then
Magus should sprinkle with water, Witch should cense in
First Conjuration,
then sprinkle and cense and conjure again with Second
Conjuration. If true
sword and athame are available, a sword and athame can be
consecrated at the
same time in which case Magus should press with sword on
sword, and Witch with
athame on athame, and new sword and athame should touch.
In any case, when finished
the weapon should be handed to new owner with
Fivefold Salute, and
should be pressed against the body for a time to get the
aura; and it should
be in as close connection as possible to the naked body for
at least a month, i.e.
kept under pillow, etc. Do not allow anyone to touch or
handle any of your
tools until thoroughly impregnated with your aura; say six
months or as near as
possible. But a pair working together may own the same
tools, which will be
impregnated with the aura of both.
