A Simple Ritual to Gain Help Making a Decision

Another spell found in my draft folder. I really like this one because first you have to think out and articulate your options on paper and then you are physically involved with the process of deciding in the chanting, spinning and throwing of the compass. May the God/dess be with you as your decisions unfold. So Mote it Be.

When faced with a difficult decision, write your options out on paper and go to an open space. Use a hiking compass to place these choices or paths directionally around you; in other words, align each option with a direction: north, south, east, and west. Keep in mind elemental alignments and their common occult associations. If there are more than four options, place them between the cardinal directions. Once everything is laid before you, spin around in a circle with increasing speed and chant the following:

Circle round, quarterly bound
I travel now lost; obscure is this ground
Circle round, quarterly bound
Awaken my magic, stir all around
Circle round, quarterly bound
Let me be found
Let me be found
Let me be found

Repeat once for each option you have before you. On the last line of the final round, fall to the ground and toss the compass into the air. Where it lands will provide you with answers. If you have fewer than four options and the compass lands in an unassociated direction, keep in mind that you might not have all the information necessary to determine a path yet unknown forces may still be at work. The only thing to do then is exercise patience, focus on the present moment, and allow further options to naturally materialize.
