Description

"No Wiccan ceremony can be effective without first evoking (forming a psychic space with a group of people in which a God-form can manifest Him- or Herself) and invoking (welcoming the God or Goddess into the circle so that He or She can speak and inteact on this earthy plane). When done correctly, invocation and evocation allow participants to personally apprehend Divinity for purposes of worship, healing, and change.

Summoning Forth Wiccan Gods and Goddesses...
offers essential, hands-on information for anyone interested in developing and sustaining personal relationships with Divinity. In a personal, one-on-one manner, Lady Maeve Rhea explains every aspect of invocation and evocation, including why to summon the Gods and when; how to prepare the space and oneself; self-invocation versus group invocation; and what to do if something goes wront. It is an essential addition to any Wiccan's library"--Page 4 of cover
