A Self-Love Ritual of Confidence and Creativity

If you have the opportunity to set up a small campfire outside, take a moment to honor the four directions (East, West, North, South) and start your fire.

If you’re igniting your flame in an enclosed space, use a candle (preferably gold, yellow, or orange - honoring the bright energy of Leo season) 

As you light the campfire (or candle), focus on the flame as a symbol of your inner light and the powerful energy. Visualize the fire igniting your self-confidence and creativity. 

After this, sit on a cushion or somewhere comfortable with a beverage. Warm herbal tea or cacao are perfect for warming up the body, opening our hearts and grounding us. Before you take your first sip, remember to offer some to the land and your ancestors.

Once you’re in this special realm you’ve created, honoring all the elements present with you - bring out your journal and write about how you can bring in more self-confidence, creative expression, or how you can simply embrace your authentic self. 

When you close out your fire, or turn off your candle - envision your writings coming to life.
