Wolf

Type of wolf:

• Normal grey wolf: Nothing
• Large/Dire wolf (similar to Twilight wolf in appearance): Red jasper
• Winged wolf (less likely to work): Feather; primaries work best. Use the biggest you can find.
• Moon only (no shifting at will, only under moon, more likely to work): Sunstone

Drop a few grains of salt in the water and scatter the rest in your working space. Light the incense. Place the stones around the base of the candle. Hold each in your hand, roll it around a little. Take in the energy. When holding the moonstone, imagine the day as the time of the mundane, the known, the realm of logic. Close your eyes, relax, clear your mind, and imagine the sun. It is slowly sinking down an afternoon sky. See its light, bask in the comfort of the easy road, the comfort of what is known. Think about your dreams of the human world as you watch the sun.

Soon it is sunset. Imagine the night as magic, forests, and wolves. Imagine that when the sun sets you will enter this world of magic. Now watch as the sun sinks below the horizon. Now the full moon is high in the sky. Feel the magic, just out of your reach. Now view the daytime sky again. You are in the mid-afternoon, whee the sun is still high but is sinking towards the night, where magic takes over. You will soon dip beneath this sunset. With all your energy, set the sun on its path to the horizon.

Pick up the clear quartz. Really think to yourself why you want to be a wolf. Conjure up images of why you want the wish, and how it will happen. Avoid negative images, as they may come true. Focus on the positive for now. When you are sure of your wish, touch the quartz to the water. Close your eyes again and imagine a moonbeam striking the quartz from the heavens and flowing into the water, filling it with this night magic, these wolves that you desire so, the form that you want so much that it hurts.

Hold the labradorite and really focus on the idea of changing, of shifting into a wolf, of this exhilaration, this freedom. View yourself in a field, with a city behind you, bustling with excitement and the mundane. Look to it. In front of you is two items. An orb of light and a coin, a token of humanity in your hand. And if you look beyond them, there is a dark forest, full of magick and wonder, confusion and excitement, a world of the unknown. Look down. Do you choose the coin and city, or orb and forest? Throw the one you didn't select into a river runnin beside you, where it washes away. If you have chosen the coin, promptly end the spell. You have likely chosen the orb, so travel into the forest, and pick up the pace. Run and leap into your wolf form, and just spend time looking through the wolf's eyes, running and climbing and exploring. When you are done. stand up on your wolf's hind legs and fall back into your human body. Open your eyes and end the visualization.

Hold the shaman stone, now, and know that your journey will be long and hard. Know that it will all be worth it. And trust in the spell, as you know it will take you there, take you to the wolf form you wish for.

Pick up the coin. Think about humanity, this token being your connection to it. Place the coin over the candle flame until part of it is covered in soot. Forget the human world for now. You are a wolf. Throw the coin into a corner, or even bury it if you are outside. You will not touch it again. If you are very serious about this, put the coin in a small wrapping of paper so your hands never contact it again even if you choose to dispose of it later.

Slowly begin drumming on the instrument while looking at your image. Put on the necklace and keep drumming while thinking to yourself: "I am a wolf. I am a wolf." When you are relaxed, hold the stones in your hands and say:

"I am a wolf, my mind is a wolf, my body is a wolf, my spirit is a wolf. Human to wolf, wolf to human. In an instant I change without any pain. I run to the forest, the vale and the glen. Through day and night, snow and rain. I call from within my greatest desire. The deepest wish that I can feel

Come forth and pierce me, change my mind. My body, my soul, make me real. The flame burning bright within. Change my mind to a wolf mind. With (a size so great and strong/wings so large and thick/fangs as sharp as daggers) o moon. This is true and wonderful and real. And it will come so very soon.

Harm be to none, not myself or ye - This is my will, mote it be."

Now drink the water, imagining its wolf energy filling you and changing your mind, body and soul to those of a wolf.
