Light a candle in a quiet place and make peace with yourself and the spirit of the animal.

I took out a couple raccoons while driving, a few months back though..it does kind of suck, I felt a bit guilty afterwards. Not much you can do in those situations... [/quote] I was sitting here slowly absorbing the words found here. I closed my eyes and envisioned the deer's spirit in full majesty and I cried hard as I apologized for my transgressions against it. In the silence that followed, with eyes still moist with tears, I tried to imagine what that deer's life consisted of up until the point of our crossing of paths.

I was wondering if anyone knew of any rituals I could do to pay homage to the dead, specifically an animal spirit?
