You can light a candle to cast this spell, or lay hands on your heart and your belly. Move however you are led to. If someone is there with you, they could help you cast this spell by speaking it with you.
Calling on the grandmothers, great-grandmothers, ancient ones and nearby kin who have walked this path before me
Calling on the wisdom and balance of the Earth, home to birth, death, emergence, growth, disintegration, renewal, grief, and joy, all
Calling on my own strong spine and my own soft heart, my own holy sovereignty and my own tenderness
Wrap me now in a warm blanket of safety and assurance
Of ancestral support
Of step by step
Of breath by breath
Help me feel the sacredness of this choice, the humanness of it
Help me trust all the emotions that may be present and may emerge, that they may guide me to my healing
Bless the hands and hearts of the nurses, doctors, and healers who will be with me today and in the days to come
If I encounter anyone who would block my way, wrap a golden shield of energetic protection around me and allow me to pass with my heart unscathed
Be with me as I remember the sovereignty and wholeness of my body
Breathe with me and let me be filled with the assurance that I am not alone, that so many walk alongside me, hand in hand, backwards and forwards, through the centuries and into the future, that there are those who even today will go to the clinic at the same time as me and make the same complicated, holy choice
Help me, today, to trust the process
To know that there is nowhere I can go that God is not
To remember that I am never alone
May it be so.
