A Simple Cakes & Wine Ritual

Usually performed during a ritual, particularly Sabbats and Esbats, before opening the Circle.



YOU WILL NEED:
some kind of bread or cake
some kind of wine or juice


"The Lord and Lady have blessed their children with the fruits of this Earth. Through them, the Divine nourish us and sustain our lives. We enjoy this bread- the wheat of the field- and give Them thanks."

Eat some bread.

"We enjoy this wine- fruit of the trees- and give Them thanks."

Drink some wine. Leave a sip of wine and a bit of bread.

"We offer this bread and this wine to the Divine and the Elements. What comes from the Earth shall return to it."



After the ritual is over, take the bread and wine outside and put it somewhere that feels right- perhaps in the middle of a field, under a tree, or in your garden's flower-bed.
