Midsummer Talisman


This activity creates a charm or talisman using the sun to burn an appropriate
sigil, sign, rune, symbol or other representation that has meaning to you of 
your
intent. Each person should decide on the symbol in advance and be able to 
clearly
focus on it in their mind during the creation process.

You only need a magnifying glass, and some wooden ?coins?, which can be 
purchased at
a craft or hobby store (and are very inexpensive). They come is a number of 
sizes.
The silver dollar and quarter sized ones are the easiest to work with, though 
the
technique could be applied to larger items and even a group working.

This activity also requires the cooperation of the weather; enough clear sky so 
that
the sun can do its work.

Begin on Midsummer Day, at Noon with the sun nearly directly overhead. Take 
time to
breathe and focus on your symbol and intent before beginning.

Use your magnifying glass to focus the rays of the sun onto the wooden 
medallion.
You should create as small a point as possible. Within a few moments, it will 
start
to smoke. Now you may begin to slowly ?draw? your symbol using the magnifying 
glass.
You will be surprised how quickly this can be performed. The power of the Sun is
indeed great.

Be careful not to burn yourself or anything else as you draw. It is advised to 
keep
your magnifying glass covered when not in use.

If children are participating, parental supervision is a must!

As you are drawing your symbol, ?see? your intent realized within the talisman 
you
are creating. When you have finished drawing, the talisman/charm is now ready 
to be
used. Thank the Sun God for adding his great power to your work.

When the object has done it?s work and you feel you no longer need it, give it 
back
to the Sun God by burning it in a fire and thanking him for the magickal 
assistance
he has provided. 

Hugz,
Shadoe
