Ritual Right For Your Soul Type!
What path do you follow? How many books do you have? Who are your favorite authors? These are very important questions you should ask yourself. I, like so many others, have followed many paths and don't have enough shelves for all of my books.
Ok, so I'm not that bad, but the thing that I have learned throughout the years is that not every path, spell or ritual works for every person using it. We each have our own frequency, our own vibration, and ancestral lineage. We must find what works best for us as an individual. The candles,herbs, tools,and oils, that we use are there to activate something within ourselves, so if there is a scent that is displeasing to your senses it will affect the strength and the potency of you work. Books are very helpful. I use mine to get a basic starting ground for the work I wish to do, but then I let my soul take over. When I first set up my altar I thumbed through several books to get a few ideas, then as I began to erect MY altar I let go and let my higher self take over. For example, most books tell you to us a candle to represent the element of fire, well I felt that if I have a candle to represent the Divine feminine and one to represent the Divine masculine and another for the work I am about to perform, do I really want another candle? I don't. So I chose to use Palo Santo sticks, flint rock and a piece of obsidian. Obsidian is formed from lava(very much fire energy). Palo Santo is wood and flint is what the Indigenous people used to start fires, this is what resonated with me, so this is what I used.
Also, I feel that it is very important to state that everyone should be very cautious if you order premade spells, especially the ones that are mass produced. What type of energy can you really get from tons of herbs being mixed in a warehouse by machines? This is very similar to fast food. When you eat fast food you may get full, but did you get any nourishment? Then if you choose to order from a specific individual, please allow your soul to guide you to the right person. If your vibration and the other person's do not match this could have very negative results. I remember ordering a few herbs from an individual who added a sample of their "House Blessings" to my order. When I first looked at it I had an uncomfortable energy come over me, so I put it away. About two months later I decided to try the "House Blessings" to see how it differed from mine. After placing the herbs on the charcoal I immediately wanted to put it out, but I waited, and let it burn. That day one of my favorite dishes got broken and I ended up with a very bad headache. Won't be doing that again. From now on, if I get a feeling about something I will listen.
I hope that this is helpful and that this message brings enlightenment and more enjoyment to your rituals. If you have any questions or comments please feel free to contact me here or at one of the following addresses.
