Greetings, beloved soul!

Purpose: This ritual is designed to help you harness the potent energies of the New Moon in Aquarius to release resistance and perfectionism, and open yourself to acceptance, healing, and growth.

Materials Needed:

Step 1: Cleanse Your Space
- Begin by cleansing your space using your chosen tool (sage, palo santo, or a spray). As you cleanse, say aloud:
*"I release any energies that no longer serve me. I create space for new growth, for clarity, and for connection."*
- Walk around your space in a circular motion, envisioning the cleansing smoke or mist dissolving all old and stagnant energies.

Step 2: Grounding
 Find a quiet, undisturbed place where you can perform the ritual. Arrange your materials in front of you, placing the candle in the center with the bowl of water and grounding stone nearby. Sit comfortably, close your eyes, and take a deep breath.

Visualize roots growing from the soles of your feet deep into the earth, anchoring you. As you inhale, imagine a soft white light entering your body, dissolving any tension. As you exhale, see the light leaving through your feet, grounding you deeper into the earth.

Step 3: Light the Candle
Light the white candle, saying: “I light this flame to illuminate the path of healing and clarity. I invite the energy of purity and acceptance to fill my space and being.”

Watch the flame closely for a moment. Let it symbolize the release of resistance and perfectionism from your life, burning away any blockages and lighting the way toward acceptance and healing.

Step 4:
Calling in Your Inner Healing Light: Close your eyes and place your hands over your heart. Take a deep breath and drop into a space of stillness. Visualize a soft, golden light radiating from your heart. As you breathe in, feel this light growing brighter and warmer, expanding outward through your body.

See this light spilling into the space around you, vibrating softly, washing away the need for control and perfection. This is your personal healing energy, always accessible to you. Allow this light to clear any blockages or tension within.

Step 5:
Symbolic Release: Take the feather or fan and gently wave it through the air around you, symbolically brushing off any resistance and perfectionism that has built up in your energy field. As you do this, say: “I release the need for perfection. I embrace life in its imperfections and beauty.”

Look into the mirror. Gaze deeply into your reflection, connecting with your true self. As you stare into your reflection, whisper: “I am enough. I release the illusion of perfection. I welcome transformation and growth.”

As you exhale, imagine perfectionism and resistance leaving your body, flowing out of you and being absorbed by the candle’s flame.

Step 6: Water Ritual for Cleansing: Dip your fingertips into the bowl of water. Imagine the water absorbing all the resistance and perfectionism you've been holding onto. Slowly sprinkle the water around you, creating a symbolic circle of release. Say: “With this water, I cleanse myself of all that holds me back. I release resistance and welcome flow into my life.”

Visualize the water washing away any emotional blockages, allowing you to move freely and with ease.

Step 7: Grounding and Integration: Pick up the grounding stone and hold it in your hands. Focus on the feeling of the solid ground beneath you. Visualize yourself standing tall, grounded, and stable. Say: “I am grounded. I release resistance and perfectionism. I move forward in acceptance and flow.”

Let the stone symbolize the stability and strength you are cultivating, and imagine any last remnants of resistance flowing into the earth, leaving you free and light.

Step 8: Closing the Ritual: Sit in silence for a moment, breathing deeply. Visualize a soft white light surrounding you, free from the weight of perfectionism and resistance.

When you are ready, blow out the candle, saying: “As I extinguish this flame, I release all resistance. I move forward with grace, lightness, and acceptance.”

Watch as the smoke rises, carrying away the remnants of resistance and control. Feel a sense of peace as the smoke disappears.

Final Reflection: Look once more into the mirror. Notice how your energy has shifted, how lighter and more grounded you feel. Smile at yourself, knowing that you are enough exactly as you are. Whisper to yourself: “I am whole. I am free. I move forward with ease and acceptance.”
