Aries Ritual
We designed this ritual to be performed during Aries season; however, you can perform it anytime you want to harness the energy of the initiator or whenever you feel called. Trust your intuition, you are your own guide!
What you’ll need for the Aries ritual:
Aries Crystal & CBD-Infused Body Oil
Aries Crystal & CBD-Infused Bath Bomb
Cleansing herb (such as sage or palo santo) or incense
Journal and writing utensil
Optional: Candles, incense, additional crystals
Note: If you don't have one (or any!) of the tools, use whatever you have on hand. The tools are less important than the intention.
Collect your ritual tools, and start your bath. Turn down the lights, and light your candles, incense, and/or herb bundle. Be intentional with every step. As your bath fills, cleanse the crystal and CBD-infused bath bomb and body oil with smoke from the herb bundle or incense. As you run your bath bomb through the smoke, hold it in your hand and tune into the courageous & confident energy of the carnelian crystal. Next, cleanse your crystal and CBD-infused body oil with the smoke and ground into the rooted energy of the red jasper and the passionate, creative energy of the carnelian.
Use your intuition to choose an affirmation or mantra to feel into throughout your bath. Suggestions include:
I am.
I am confident.
I am creative.
I am courageous.
I follow my passions.
I do what lights me up.
I embrace my true self.
I share my unique gifts with the world.
When your bath is filled, place yourself and the bath bomb in the tub. Watch as the bath bomb fizzes and transforms. Feel the energy of carnelian infusing you with creativity and confidence, reminding you that you have everything you need within you, and that you are encouraged to take divinely inspired action towards your dreams. Breathe in deeply and allow the blend of honeysuckle and sweet pea to wash over you. Allow your body, mind, and spirit to fully relax as you tune into your affirmation. Stay in the bath for as long as you feel called, and then unplug the drain. As the tub empties, imagine all obstacles, limiting beliefs, old patterns, stuck energy, other people's energy, and anything that is keeping you from going after your dreams, anything holding you back from creating what you want to create, washing down the drain. You may want to repeat, "I release all things that no longer serve me down the drain".
Dry yourself slightly when you get out of the bath and anoint yourself with the crystal and CBD-infused body oil. Massage gently wherever you feel stress, tension, blocks, or strain. Follow where your intuition guides you, whether it’s your hands, temples, scalp, or your whole body. Pay special attention to massaging your head, scalp, and face, as Aries rules these parts of your body (and it should feel really good too!).
As you massage, inhale & exhale deeply through your nose and feel the grounding energy of red jasper and the inspiring, passionate energy of carnelian. Breathe in the blend of scents to soften and soothe any tension or stress.
When you feel ready, free-write or meditate on the answers to the following questions:
What lights me up?
Where can I invite more courage into my life?
What is my soul calling me to start?
What action feels soul-aligned and divinely inspired for me right now?
What step can I take towards my making my dreams a reality?
