Ok, so what I ended up doing is taking two white candles and placing them in my "cauldron". I took two small pieces of paper. I had decided to invoke Bast in particular for this, since she is both a protectress and a household goddess, and I need both. So on one I drew a cat's eye and I traced a banishing pentagram 3 times saying "She will leave me alone. Negative energy be gone."
On the other I wrote out my wish for housing. I burned one piece of paper by one candle and the other by the other, and I'm letting the candles burn themselves out. Then afterwards I went and left my "cakes and ale" offering by the only tree in front of our place.
It's so cloudy here you can't see the full moon.

But it's nice knowing it's there, all the same.
