A Van spell from the City which temporarily misdirects attention from you.

You will need:

Any sort of blindfold or wrap

Marker

Any paper (receipts especially)

Any fire

Something to extinguish the fire

At midnight, ready your supplies; light the fire and draw an eye on one side of the paper; on the other, write your intentions. The traditional way of phrasing this is, "Strike me from the eyes of the world." You may fill this seal with emanation (ie. channel energy into it) if you have the ability.

Draw an empty circle(s) on your body wherever you most feel the world through, be it your head, chest, hands, so on.

Blindfold yourself, then take the seal. Burn it while focusing on the darkness of the blindfold; close your eyes if it helps.

Extinguish the fire, then remove your blindfold. This spell will last from this midnight until the next, approximately; during that time, expect the world and spirits to ignore you, even be it subtly or indirectly.

Optional:

As with all City magic, you may use the ash of something smoked to empower the fire or seal, and/or you may also do so with blood. Doing either will make the act more powerful; beware this if you might need to be noticed for the following day.

This ritual is recommended for going unfound, hiding, or for any reason you would like to remain out of everyone's perception. It will not make you invisible nor entirely unnoticed; as with most magic in this world, the effects may be subtle. You may not even realize what has passed you by that otherwise may have ran into you, sought you.

Let's make a wand~

Waited 'til night since it's the best time for Van (dark) magic

Time to carve the seal in~

A little hard to make out with this camera, but in the City tongue it means, "Here gathers the City's darkness."

Anointed it with cigarette ash and put out the cig itself out on the end of the sentence; the burn empowers and activates the seal

And there we go~! Now it's ready to help empower other seals and spells~
