Banishing Ritual to Hecate

This Banishing Ritual is very intense and powerful like many of my other Rituals such
as the Full and Dark Moon Rituals. This ritual should be done as close to the Dark
Moon as possible. This ritual is for someone(s) who has done you harm by gossip, lies,
deceit, etc. Because you are calling on the Goddess Hecate and Her powers to aid you,
please make sure that you are completely innocent of the situation.
If you do not know who the person is, or are not positively sure, do not mention any
names. Leave that to the Dark Goddess, as She knows.
This ritual deals with the use of parchment paper (or regular paper, if you do not have
it). Gather all your material that you need for this ceremony. If using a lit charcoal in the
cauldron of Hecate, make sure that the charcoal is hot enough to burn your parchment
paper. If you are going to light the parchment paper from the Goddess candle to put in
the cauldron, then there is no need to worry about any charcoal after you cleanse the
temple room. You will need piece of parchment paper, patchouli oil or clove oil to
sprinkle on the parchment paper. (If you do not have any of these oils, that is fine. But I
would suggest perhaps ordering some of these oils from a Witchcraft supply store for
future use. ) You will also need Dragons Blood ink or your magickal pen. Before ritual,
on a small piece of parchment paper, write down what has been done to you either with
Dragons Blood ink and a feather or your magickal pen which you have only used for
magickal workings. Then put a few dabs of Patchouli or Clove oil on the parchment
paper. Fold the parchment paper in half and put a banishing pentagram on top and
bottom of the folded paper.
RITUAL
After meditating and getting yourself focused and centered, cast and cleanse your circle
in the manner you are accustomed to, or you can use the Circle Casting chant either
from the Full or Dark Moon Ritual which I prepared. In casting a Circle and calling in
the Watchtowers, I go deosil no matter the time of the Moon. When I take the ritual
down, I go widdershins in dismissing the Watchtowers and calling back the Circle. To
me, when when "closing" a bottle, you go deosil. So, in casting a circle you are closing
and making it air tight; when opening a bottle, you go widdershins. So in opening the
circle, you are once again letting anything back in. Also, since this is a Dark Moon
ritual, and you are working with the Crone and Her energies, there is no need to call in
any God. Moon rituals are sacred and for the Goddess only. You call in the Goddess
and God at Sabbats, as the Sabbats are the interaction between the Goddess and her
Consort...between Earth and Sun. And the Moon......is for the Goddess only!
Calling in the Dragon Watchtowers. (Dragons are great protectors and are also the ones
who pulls Hecates Chariot.)
Move to the East - raise your wand and say
Hail, Great Dragon of the East
Whose yellow eyes see all in the Element of Air
I do summon, stir, and call thee up to attend this rite
and call upon your forces to protect and defend me this night!
(Light the candle and draw an evoking pentagram into the air)

Move to the South - raise your wand and say

Hail Great Dragon of the South
Whose red eyes see all in the Element of Fire!
I do summon, stir, and call thee up to attend this rite
and call upon your forces to protect and defend me this night.
(Light the candle and draw an evoking pentagram into the air)
Move to the West - raise your arm and say
Hail, Great Dragon of the West,
Whose blue eyes see all in the Element of Water
I do summon, stir and call thee up to attend this rite
and call upon your forces to protect and defend me this night
(Light the candle and draw an evoking pentagram into the air)
Move to the North - raise your arm and say
Hail, Great Dragon of the North
Whose green eyes see all in the Element of Earth
I do summon, stir, and call thee up to attend this rite
and call upon your forces to protect and defend me this night.
(Light the candle and draw an evoking pentagram into the air)
Go back to the East and make an envoking pentagram and say:
The Circle is sealed and I am
completely cut off from the outside world
in order to perform my magickal workings in
sending back all the evil that has been sent against me
Lighting of the Triple Goddess Candles - (optional)
Three Candles do I light
In Honor of Thee, O Goddess this Dark Moon Night
White for the Maiden pure as snow
Red for the Mother full within
Black for the Crone, old and wise.
(Light each candle as you address each Gddess)
Evoke the Goddess - raise your hands up high
Oh Great Goddess of Darkness, the Sorceress
who will not be ruled, the Weaver of time,
The teacher of Mysteries.
O Hecate, you who slit the throats of the cruel and drink
the blood of the heartless, yet are the shining sword
that protects us from harm.
You are the healer of wounds;
the Warrior who rights all wrongs.
You make the weak strong and the arrogant humble,
and you are Justice tempered with Mercy.

I call upon you Dark Goddess Hecate to attend this rite

and to send back all the evil that has been sent against me.
(Light the Dark Goddess candle)
Prayer to the Dark Goddess Hecate of your plight
Dark Mother, Queen of the Night, there are
those who stand against me.
Let their efforts fail. Let them go down into darkness
Let them stand in your Courts
May their efforts always be lost in the darkness
with no light to guide them.
I am your child Dark Mother, protect me!
Dark Mother, help me to reach my goals, live my life to the fullest,
and walk the path of the Goddess.
Sweep away all barriers built by those who want me to fail.
(Now.....your intent - holding your parchment paper over your cauldron say with total
conviction and emotion from deep within your heart. Poor the anger into your words for
the injustice done to you. Do not just say the words, but feel the words)
Crush the evil sent against me!
Sweep its evil remains back int the bodies and brains of those who sent it!
The evil is dead...the attackers taste their just rewards!
The mouths are full of ashes, their thoughts of nightmares
their lives of unfulfillment!
Hecate, Dark One, hear my plea,
Bring justice now, I ask of Thee!
Right the wrongs that have been done,
Avenge me now, oh Mighty One
Light your parchment paper by the Goddess candle and then put it in the Cauldron of
Hecate and release you requests to Her and watch it burn. As you are watching it burn,
envision the darkness/negativity being lifted from you and returning to the sender. If
you know how it is, fine. If you do not, then just see the shadow of the person receiving
what they had sent out. After the parchment paper is done burning say:
It is finished! (In saying this, you are now allowing the Dark Goddess Hecate to
handle the situation. It is in Her hands now!)
Then say:
Oh Great Goddess, wrap me in your dark cloak and
protect me from Dark Moon to Dark Moon.
May your Dragons guard me from Dark Moon to Dark Moon.
If you have prepared for Cakes and Wine/Juice (which is in your chalice), bless them
both by saying:
I bless thee of Creature of Wine and Cakes
knowing that as I drink and eat of thee
I partake in the power of the mysteries of You,
Great Goddess Hecate, the three and the one.

Libation: (Take the chalice of wine/juice in both hands and hold it up and say:)
In Honor of Thee O Great Goddess Hecate,
Do I pour this Libation and drinketh this Toast.
All life is your Own
All fruits of the Earth, your power, your wisdom
your liberation
I thank you for your blessings, strength and protection.
(Remember eating of the cakes and wine help to ground you. So it is important to eat
and drink.)
If you wish to do any sort of divination and/or meditation, now is the time.

Calling back the Circle - (I go widdershins to open circle, since I went deosil to create
my sacred circle)
Power cast and then forgotten is power wasted
Wherefore do I call ye back O circle of Power
into my holy staff (or whatever you use)
By the holy flame, this circle disappears and becomes no more
Everything is as it was since the beginning of time.
Circle is now opened once again.
