🍫 Ceremonial Cacao

Okay, with 2/2 dosages of this… I can confirm that this does something wonderful for the mood. However, there are some variables to consider. I am well-rested and was calm before entering this, I have not eaten solid food in eight hours, I avoid sugar, and the only caffeine I consume is in whatever teas I drink. (No more than one caffeinated tea per day.) Also, even though the sun is in the sky again, a storm just blew through the area, so there’s probably a lot of energy around.

And one more thing… These feelings have come on much more strongly after I’ve lit some elemental candles, so perhaps keep that in mind. It might not be directly related to the elements, but a part of the ritual that involves lighting candles and meditating or focusing on this moment of peace at hand.

All I feel right now is appreciation for the world and especially those I have in my life. I want to hug my partner and hug my cats, and tell them how much I appreciate what they’ve done for me and brought into my life. I want to do the same with my friends. And I want to do the same with my lovely coven.

There’s beautiful instrumental Chinese music playing in the background, the warmth and light of four candles nearby, and a nice seat beneath me. Wait. Why am I just noticing now how comfortable it is to sit?

I’m comfortable swaying to do the music, but I am not energised enough to dance. Again, however, this is a daily, not ceremonial, dose, and it includes some other ingredients, too. Anyway…

Happy evening to you all.
