- An instrument to carve runes into the candles

- Oil to dress your candles (this is optional, and can be any oil that makes you feel protected, a specially formulated protection blend, or your astrological sign essential oil)
Performing the Rune Spell
1. Start by selecting a candle from the five that you want to represent yourself. Carve into this candle the rune Algiz (pictured below) and write your name beneath it:
2. Place the other four candles around your altar in the north, east, south, and west corners.
3. Place the candle that represents you in the center of the other four.
4. Spread your salt in a circle around the candles, and leave a small pinch of salt directly in front of you.
5. Light your incense and clear your mind of all negative thoughts.
6. Light the candle to the east and say: Powers of Air, hear my call grant me your protection that is all I ask for!
7. Light the candle to the south and state: Powers of Fire, hear my call grant me your protection that is all I ask for!
8. Light the western candle and say: Powers of Water, hear my call grant me your protection that is all I ask for!
9. Finally, light the candle to the north and state: Powers of Earth, hear my call grant me your protection that is all I ask for!
10. Look up to the skies and call out: Powers of High, listen to my plea, May I always be protected by thee!
11. Light your candle and say: Banish my fears! I light with your light, I am guarded, well-protected and with a shield I rise!
12. Stare into the flame and visualize a protective light surrounding you. The light is warm, glowing, soothing. Breathe in the light, and let it fill you with shining protection.
13. Open your eyes and say: Air protects me! Fire protects me! Water protects me! Earth protects me! The God(s or Divine) protect(s) me! I am whole again, with my shield I move on!
14. Meditate until you’re comfortable and feel protected, and then let the candles burn. Bury the remains and sprint the salt from the ritual around the area where they’re placed.

Rune Name: Harvest
Think: This rune resembles a planter with a healthy plant that has fruiting berries ripe for the plucking.
Remember: Positive. The harvest rune represents the fruition of a job well done. There is abundant wealth, family happiness, and reaching the next level of development in the situation at hand. All your hard work will be mightily rewarded. Make no mistake, though, that good things take time to develop. Don't rush ahead foolishly or slack off.
The Tiwaz rune is also regarded as a powerful protection rune. It is associated with the god Tyr, a deity associated with justice and law. The Tiwaz rune is often used to provide courage, strength, and protection in challenging situations. In addition to these specific protection runes, there are also general runes that can be used for protection. For example, the Fehu rune is often used to attract positive energy and abundance, which can help create a protective shield around an individual. Likewise, the Mannaz rune is associated with human connection and social harmony, and its use can create a protective barrier against negative influences. It is important to note that while protection runes can be a useful tool in magical practice, they are not a substitute for common sense and practical safety precautions. These runes should be used as a complement to other forms of protection, such as locking doors, avoiding dangerous situations, and being aware of one's surroundings. In conclusion, protection runes play a significant role in witchcraft and magic. These runes are used to provide protection from negative energies and enhance personal safety. Whether using a specific protection rune or a more general one, it is important to remember that these symbols are just one tool in a comprehensive approach to protection..
