  Closing the Circle
 
Thank the deities fot Their help and bid them goodbye.  You will then release the quarters.  Examples of both are to follow.  After you release the quarters, you will take your athame, walk the circle counter clockwise, starting and ending in the east.  Then kneel in the center and say:
 
The circle is open but never broken.  Nothing but love has come here and nothing but love has left here, so mote it be.  Merry meet and merry part until we merry meet again.  Blessed Be.
 
Releasing the Quarters:  This is just a sample, you can always modify.
 
Spirit of the East, Ancient One of the Air, I thonk you for your presence here tonight and for protecting uus in our circle,  Go in power, Spirit.  Hail and Farewell.  Blessed Be.
 
Bidding the God and Goddess Good Bye:  Again, a sample, feel free to make it yours.
 
Dear Lord and Lady, We thank you for your presence, for Your guidance, for Your light and love, for night and change.  We ask for Your blessing as You depart.  Hail and Farewell, Lord and Lady.  Go in power, Blessed Be.
