In times past, church and town bells rang out to mark certain parts of the day, times for prayer, and more. Some cultures still use bells to signal these practices, the tintinnabulation surrounding far and wide, reminding people of their obligations. Today, the bell is often overlooked as a magickal tool, but reclaiming its power will add a bright spot to your magicks.
Purchase a small bell: be sure to test several until you find one with a pleasing ring. Charge the bell in full cycles of sun and full moon, then consecrate it with all four elements, dabbing it with saltwater and passing it through the smoke above a burning candle flame. Use the prepared bell to mark sacred space or occurrences, ringing it to signal the start and end of prayer, mediation, ritual, or gatherings. Keep it on your altar space when not in use.
