Cake & Wine Ritual

This ritual is normally done at the end of most rituals. It can be modified to reflect the nature of your ritual such as for a sabbat or an esbat. 

(From Grimoire of the Green Witch by Ann Moura) 

Note: all words in italics are spoken. 

Items needed:

  • Altar Chalice (or you can have a set of multiple cups if you don't wish to share the chalice in a group setting)
  • Offering plate
  • Ritual food
  • Beverage of choice 
  • Altar bell 
  • athame
  • libation bowl/cauldron

Ring bell or clap 3 times.

Feet spread and open arms raised:

I acknowledge my needs and offer my appreciation to that which sustains me! May I ever remember the blessings of the Lady and the Lord.

Feet together, hold cup in left hand and athame in right and slowly lower the point of the athame intro the cup: 

As the Divine Male joins the Divine Female for the benefit of Both, let the fruits of their sacred Union promote life, love and joy. Let the Earth be fruitful and let Her bounty be spread throughout all lands. 

Set down athame; pour a second libation into the libation bowl or cauldron. Now touch point of athame to the bread/cake in the offering dish: 

This food is the blessing of the Lady and the Lord given to me. As I have received, may I offer food for the body, mind, and spirit to those who seek such of me.

Eat the ritual food and finish the beverage, divide the food and drink among attendees present, and when finished: 

As I have enjoyed these gifts of the Goddess and the Cod, may I remember that without Them I would have nothing. 

So Mote lt Be.

End of ritual
