Blodeuwedd's Ritual of Retrival

Click here for the myth of Blodeuwedd (off this site)


The Goddess Blodeuwedd can be invoked to assist in any matters of betrayal. If you feel betrayed or feel you have betrayed another then Blodeuwedd can help.

Take yourself somewhere you will not be disturbed. With you take pen and paper a a candle, red flowers and white flowers.

Site comfortably and light your candle. Have your pen and paper at hand. Take a few moments to sit in silence and begin to imagine a white/blue light surrounding you as you go deep within yourself. Spend as long as you like doing this until you feel connected to the very deepest parts of yourself.

Now call to Blodeuwedd (pronounced bluh dire weth) by chanting her name over and over followed by "Lady be with me". As you are doing this you can imagine flowers raining down upon you. Now in this heightened state imagine the personification of Blodeuwedd is in front of you. You can converse with her and ask her for help and advise on the matter in hand. Ask her how the matter can be resolved and brought back into balance.

Once you have finished your conversation offer the Goddess the love in your heart and your thanks then slowly bring yourself back into your normal waking state. Now write down all that you have learnt on one piece of paper and all you wish to be rid off on another. Also write down what your plan of action is if you need one, on another piece of paper. Now fold up the two pieces of paper containing what you have learnt and your plan of action and bury them in the Earth thinking about the plans coming to fruition. The paper containing the elements you wish to be rid off can be torn into small pieces and thrown to the four winds. Once you feel this is complete, offer your flowers to the space you have used in honor of the Goddess Blodeuwedd.

Remember, the law of magic making states," if it harms none, do what thou will" please think carefully about how this ritual will effect others so as not to cause unnecessary harm to yourself or others. This ritual is best performed when your heart is in a place of love and detachment from the betrayal and not when you are still in the energies of guilt or bitterness.

In love and trust then.

Blessed be.
