The Existential Oracle

When you see the word "ritual", what kind of thoughts does this conjure up for you?

Rituals are performed by witches or saten worshippers...

Or rituals are for "religous" ceremony related to regious services etc..

While all these things may be true, these are only some ways ritual is used.

I would like to share what I know and how I use ritual practice ..

I began practicing ritual intention setting and release practices about 2 years ago when I started learning about using the moon to enhance the power of what I wanted to either manifest or release..

What I discovered when I began to be more intentional with these practices by creating a ritual around them was my intuition became more open to noticing and the opportunities and doors that were being presented to me through law of attraction and the universal energies that I put into action.

There have been many opportunities presented to me that I had not even considered doing but would clearly help me in manifesting my intentions...
But, it was my intuition and willingness to take the action around something that felt risky because I had not considered it before it presented itself to me...

I know beyond any doubt that the reason I was able to recognize and subsequently take the risk, was because the ritual I performed kept the energy of the intention alive in my intuition and subconscience energy body...

So I want you to think about creating a ritual is an imprint of your intention to not only your intuition but your subconscious which will always be aware and open to the opportunities that are being put in your path..

The following is a list of things I often use when performing my new moon intention ritual..

Candles
Candles are a focal point you can use as you meditate on your intention to the new moon, also, the smoke and the flame represent your intention being carried to the universal energies.. the color of the candle should represent your intention but white is always a default ..

Crystals
Chrystals are also an energy source that helps carry your intention and thay can be used to meditate with in the weeks and months after the intention is set to keep ficus on it.
Today it will be Aquamarine, labradorite and black tourmaline for the Pisces new moon...

Tarot cards
I like to use the tarot cards that represent the spacific constellation that the new moon is under in this case The new moon is in Pisces and the cards are
The moon
The hanged man and
8 of cups .
I may also use cards the specifically represent my intention. ..

Herbs and oils can also be used to dress the candle or your alter area , such as dragons blood, sandlewood , lavendar, Cinnamon ..

Lastly but most importantly,
Write out your intention by asking the new moon, your guides angels or loved ones to assist in you manifestion your intention
After writing it out fold the paper and place it under all the items you are using fir your ritual...

Set up your ritual alter anywhere that feels comfortable fir you...around the time of the moon perfecting are a few hours before if the time is inconvenient (avoid after if possible) light your candle and meditate on your intention for 10 minutes or so.... let the candle burn fir as long as it's safe and the next day place the paper with your intention in a safe place...

You can go back and meditate on this intention whenever you feel compelled by placing this intention under a candle remembering to thank the universal energies for helping you to manifest your intention...

We are all feeling this in one way or another....

What do you need to let go???

Jupiter Rx backed into Pisces overnight, where he will reactivate degrees 28-29 between now and December 20th. Jupiter originally moved from Pisces into Aries on May 10th, but he only made it to 8 degrees of Aries before he spun retrograde on July 28th. He’s still backtracking, and he’s crossing back into Pisces for the remainder of the journey.

Jupiter is about growth, abundance, expansion, and luck. When he goes retrograde, he puts a pause on all of those things, asking us instead to evaluate the growth we’ve already experienced: is it sustainable? Is it what we really wanted? What dead weight can we shed, so that when we move into the next expansion phase, we can go further, faster? In some ways, Jupiter Rx asks us to pull back, which makes him like Saturn, but not as much of a dick. He’s not taking things away just because he can; he’s asking us to re-evaluate our overall position, so that we can emerge bigger and better than ever before.

The move from Aries back into Pisces will change the flavor of this lesson, significantly. Things in the sector of the chart that houses the Pisces/Aries cusp could get much murkier, or they may start to feel too big. Maybe we’ve been selfish (Aries) about our personal growth, so Jupiter’s return to Pisces is here to show us what happens when we refuse to let go. Think back to late April/early May: was there something that was ripe for manifestation then, but that failed to materialize? You could see a resurgence of that thing now. Do you still want it?

Don’t be afraid to release that which doesn’t serve you while Jupiter is here for the next couple of months - no matter what it is, and even if it contributes to your overall abundance. He spins direct on November 23rd, and growth will resume. You’ll need space for new stuff to flow in. Set yourself up now, so that you can flow unencumbered later.
