Preparation

Setting the Scene

2. Set up Your Altar: Arrange all the ingredients on a small table or altar to create a sacred space.
3. Cleanse Your Space: Use sage, incense, or your preferred cleansing method to ensure a positive environment.

Performing the Spell

Creating Sacred Space

1. Light the White Candle: White symbolizes purity and clarity. As you light it, visualize the flame illuminating your mind and revealing hidden truths.
2. Place the Apple: Position the apple at the center of your altar. The apple represents knowledge and insight.

Preparing for Divination

1. Hold the Bowl of Water: Water is a conduit for psychic energy and intuition. Hold the bowl in both hands and close your eyes.
   • Visualize: Picture the water as a mirror, reflecting the answers you seek.
   • Say Aloud: “Water clear, show to me, the truth and insight I wish to see.”

Writing Your Question

1. Write Your Question: On the piece of paper, write down the specific question or situation you seek insight into. Be clear and concise.
   • Example: “What is the best path for my career?” or “How can I resolve the conflict with my friend?”

Divination with the Apple

1. Cut the Apple: Using the knife, carefully cut the apple in half horizontally, revealing the star-shaped core inside.
   • As You Cut: Say, “Apple of wisdom, secrets untold, reveal to me what the future holds.”
2. Read the Seeds: Look at the seeds in the star-shaped core. Count the seeds and observe their arrangement.
   • Interpretation:
     • An even number of seeds indicates harmony and positive outcomes.
     • An odd number of seeds suggests challenges or unexpected turns.
     • Seeds that are close together imply unity and strong bonds.
     • Seeds that are spread apart suggest distance or separation.

Further Divination

1. Place the Halves in Water: Gently place the apple halves in the bowl of water, cut side up.
   • Watch the Movement: Observe how the apple halves move. If they drift towards each other, it indicates positive connections. If they move apart, it suggests separation or obstacles.

Sealing the Spell

1. Write Insights: On the same piece of paper, write down the insights and answers you received from the apple divination.
   • Example: “The apple seeds indicate harmony in my career path. The halves drifting together suggest positive collaborations.”
2. Burn the Paper: Carefully light the paper with the candle and let it burn in the heat-proof dish or cauldron.
   • As it Burns: Say, “As this paper burns, the insight I gain. Clarity and wisdom, I now attain.”

Closing the Ritual

Thanking the Elements
