I wasn't sure how to charge stones either since my BOS is hiding from me, So I went searching for some info for you. And I found it! the website address is: http://www.amysticalgrove.com/BOS/BOS_Gem5.shtml

It tells you how to choose, charge AND program your stone! About the pentacle, you dont NEED to use the pentacle to charge something, but a lot of Witches do. I usually do. This is how I would charge an athame using the pentacle: Make sure you have a bow of salt, bow of water, myyrh/frankincense incense, white candle, pentacle on your altar.

Cast a circle around the altar.

Pass the athame through the incense and say: "By the powers of air, I consecrate thee."

Pass it through the candle flame and say: "By the powers of fire, I consecrate thee."

Dip it in the water and say: "By the powers of water, I consecrate thee."

Dip it in the salt and say: "By the powers of Earth, I consecrate thee."

TOuch it to the pentacle and then point it to the sky and say: "By the powers of the God and GOddess, I consecrate thee!"

Then set it on the altar and say: "So mote it be!"

Close your circle.

I hope this has helped you!! *~*~ Gwenivere ~*~*
