The Paper of Falling Plans

Join the Coven to keep this in your own Book of Shadows
A fire working against plans already being laid against you. You write out the refusal, fold it three times, and burn it - and what you ask for is that the schemes lose their shape before they reach you, not that anybody be hurt in the making of them.
Level Beginner
Time 25 minutes
Moon Any. Outdoors matters more than the phase
What You Will Need
A large sheet of paper
A full page at least. Writing the words out by hand in full size is part of the working, so do not use a scrap.
A fireproof pot or small cauldron
Deep enough to hold a folded page as it burns. Metal or stone, on ground or stone rather than on a table.
A red candle
Red for nerve rather than for anger. Lit first and snuffed last.
A little water, kept to one side
Not part of the rite. Part of being able to do the rite outdoors with a clear conscience.
Moon Phase & Timing
This one answers an emergency, so it is worked when it is needed. The phase is a courtesy.
Waning Moon: For a scheme that is already in motion and that you want to see lose momentum.
Tuesday: Mars's day, which rules defence as well as attack. A good day for a working of standing firm.
Tonight: If something is being arranged against you this week, this week is the right week. Do it again on the next waning moon if you want both.
