A cake is placed in the offering bowl, and the rest are passed around the circle. The priestess adds any other offerings into the bowl, and recites over it the Orphic hymn honoring all the gods. The priestess thanks the gods with a closing prayer appropriate to the rite. At each quarter, the bell is rung three times. Hail and farewell.
Priestess rings the bell once in the center of the circle.
With the athame, the priestess undraws the circle counterclockwise, drawing in the energy. She touches the edge of the blade to the Spirit flame to return it. Priestess rings the bell over the altar corners counterclockwise to release control of the elements. The circle is open but unbroken. May the love of the Gods go in our hearts.
