A Lammas ritual for resolving injustice
The injustice may involve official, business, domestic or personal issues. This ritual can also be used for overcoming official inertia in a matter of importance
-
Take a sharp pair of golden-coloured scissors or a sharp knife with a golden handle.
-
On a piece of yellow paper write down the matter with which you are concerned and your frustrations and the main obstacles in the path to justice.
-
Roll the paper into a scroll and tie it loosely with long grasses or ears of corn, wheat or barley, wrapping in them the desire for a swift and positive ending to the matter.
-
Finally tie the bundle with a scarlet ribbon, colour of the Norse other Goddess Frigg who rules corn dollies, binding in it any residual negativity or doubts concerning the matter.
-
With your knife or scissors, cut through the ribbon saying:
Let the matter proceed with all swiftness to a positive conclusion that I may be free of its cords.
-
You can be as specific or general as you wish about the nature of the problem.
-
Catch the corn and paper on a large tray and continue to cut or shred the paper and corn until you have a pile of small pieces,
-
Throw the pieces on to a bonfire or fire in a domestic hearth and look into the embers to see pictures of a brighter tomorrow.
