Herbs and Minerals: Sage, Salt and Water December brings us to the end of the year, the end of the cycle and the moment of reconsideration for what it has been that brought us here now... The blend for this week will be about bringing our thought process into a state of introspection. Remembrance of what has been happening... and a look into the why of it. also beginning to cleansing ourselves of the past so as to set new objectives for the coming cycle of change... REMEMBER the RULES of KARMA: * What you set out toward others will come back to you 13 fold. * You have to option to break the cycle. * Acceptance of the lesson can come in the form or acknowledgement. Karma can be a blessing or a scourge... you can choose. ![]() Gather together: * Sage and a dish or bowl to burn it in. * Bowl of Water * Bowl of Salt * Clear Quartz Crystal of your choice Wash your hands with the intention of cleansing yourself entirely. Make a space for a mini altar... this can be a table or a corner of your room. A special little place that will not be disturbed for a while. Light the sage and move around the smoke around the space with the intention of clearing out any energy that is complete and no longer serves you or your household. Move throughout your home with the sage with the same intention. Place the dish with the sage on your mini altar... I like to put it on the front center area, to act as a cleanser for anything else I may add to the space. Hold the bowl of water in your hands and envision white light going into the water and purifying it. Place the bowl of water on your altar ... I like to place the water on the Western side of the table... if you chose to follow the Pagan standards. Allow your thoughts to go to finding the courage to face your deepest feelings and embracing them for learning and release. Hold the bowl with salt in it in your hands. Envision white light going into the salt to purify and brighten it. Place the bowl at the Northern side or your altar. This is for clarity and enlightenment. Hold the crystal in your hands. Envision white light going into and around the crystal, clearing out any previous programs or energetic thoughts. Ask the crystal to work with you during this December ritual. Place the crystal where ever it feels right on the space. Sit or stand beside your mini altar. Allow time for meditation before you need to go do something else! Focus on the feeling of the earth beneath your feet. Focus on your body as it sits or stands beside the altar. Focus on your breath. Allow your focus to reach out to each of the elements that you have place on your altar. Sit with yourself. Allow your thoughts to flow backwards to the previous actions and activities of the past year. Allow this to happen as if you were watching a video... fast forward through anything that does not need attention. Slow motion for the things that stand out. Look at the lessons. Look at the actions that may need an apology or forgiveness. Make the apology and forgive. Allow yourself time to accept the actions. only a few moments... don't dwell! And then move forward, bring your focus back to the water, salt and crystal on your altar. LIght your sage, once again, as you ground yourself by bringing your attention to your feet on the earth. Perform this ritual as many times as needed until the eve of the Winter Solstice Use with grace and ease as you recollect and release all that no longer serves you.
You are readying to move into the new year of 2015.
