Invocations:
Many people tend to confuse the term invocation with evocation. An invocation is bringing something into your physical body. The definition of an invocation is "A ritual to call energies into oneself from outside, sometimes in the form of a deity." Invocations in my opinion should be done only by the experienced practitioner. When invoking you open doorways so that "deity or spirit" may enter your physical body. This is no game, when you open doors you must know how to control what lies behind them. Furthermore, once you invoke you must know how to make them leave. Many times they know they can not stay but when toying with certain energies at times they may not wish to leave immediately. This is where experience comes into play. Please hear my words do not do this if you are not a trained practitioner. In reference to opening doors, many energies reside on the other side and when you open a door and bring things over to our side, you must know how to handle this. Closing the doors are as important as opening them. Remember, invocations are not a game to be dealt with lightly. Blessings to you all and I hope that this brief information has helped you understand invocations.

Invocation of the Elements
Air, Fire, Water, Earth,
Elements of astral birth,
I call you now; attend to me!
In the Circle, rightly cast,
Safe from curse or blast,
I call you now, attend to me!
From cave and desert,sea and hill,
By wand, blade,and pentacle,
I call you now, attend to me!
This Is my will, so mote it be!
Prayers
I call the light of golden rays
I seek protection thus', I pray.
For heavenly forces at my side
Angels, Sages, spirit guides
Or wolves who walk with cunning skill
Come to my aid! Come at my will!
Black bird soaring, light my path
So I am victim to no one`s wrath!
And when my journey at last succeeds,
All those who aid me, Blessed Be!
R E Goodwin
