释义 | aspergillumenUKas·per·gil·lum(ăs′pər-jĭl′əm) or as·per·gill (-jĭl)aspergillum(ˌæspəˈdʒɪləm) oraspergillas•per•gil•lum(ˌæs pərˈdʒɪl əm)n., pl. -gil•la (-ˈdʒɪl ə) -gil•lums. AspergillumenUKAspergillum(religion, spiritualism, and occult)A ritual implement used to sprinkle, or "asperge," holy water. This is usually part of a consecration, whether of a human prior to, or as part of, a ritual or of an object, such as a talisman. The aspergillum is often simply a bundle of herbs, which are dipped into the water and then shaken to dispense the droplets. But many Witches and magicians will make an aspergillum by setting a small bundle of sticks into a handle and perhaps decorating that handle. The resulting tool is then formally consecrated before use and becomes one of the Witch's working tools. |
