Remembrance and Honor Spell

Color of the day: Orange
Incense of the day: Violet

World War I was a devastating war that destroyed families and communities on all sides. The poppy fields of Flanders became soaked with the blood of thousands of dying soldiers. Red poppies became the symbol of profound grief, loss, sacrifice, and remembrance. Peace was declared on November 11 and has become a day of remembrance of all soldiers of all wars and conflicts. Gather together mementos of those who have served their country in war, disaster relief, and in peace, including photos, articles, and other sentimental items. Add to that sprigs of rosemary and lavender. Light white and silver candles. Breathe deeply and fully as you chant.

With sacrifice of
blood and bone
In love and honor
you protect us.
With all honor,
we remember
Never judging,
always loving.
Blessed be.
