hey friends sorry it’s been a while but I had a lot going on, I feel like i’ve drawn away but something about this coming full moon made me feel drawn back in. Does that ever happen to you guys? I need to find a simple morning ritual I can just do when I wake up. I don’t always have coffee or a morning tea or anything so I was thinking of affirmations just something to say thank you to the universe you know? little things like that even make me feel more connected.
I had an interview for a promotion within the company I work for so i’ve been so overwhelmed prepping and staying focused! How has be you guys been doing?
What are you guys doing/did do for the full moon? depending where you are
We can all offer our advice, but I think it’s important that you do what you feel you want to do. I searched for morning rituals and prayers and blessings till my eyes hurt, and I decided (because I’m old school) to keep it simple and specific.
When I wake up, I thank the Divine for waking me and my daughter up because many people go to sleep and don’t wake up, so the first thing on my mind is gratitude. As the kettle boils and I make a hot drink, I give thanks for shelter, food, my sanity (or what’s left of it) and my loved ones. And that’s the end of my usual ritual - after that, something else may pop into my mind to give thanks for, or I might ask for serenity, or something like that, but the ritual itself is thanks and blessings for the day.
I am NOT a morning person. I don’t seem to feel much early in the day unless I go outside and into nature. Then I’m great. Thankfully it is getting warmer here and going outside to listen and watch the day come alive is my best start to the day. Nature is the best magic for me. I don’t have to think about it.
First of all, congratulations! I hope you get the promotion!
I used to pray when driving to work, back when I worked. Especially if I was late. I mean, that’s if you drive. You’re in the car alone, if you can sing along to Living on a Prayer, you can actually pray!
Hello @madi Yes, I’ve felt that way too and Congratulations for your interview I’m not a morning person and because of that Ive never been successful with morning rituals but I’m sure you’ll get plenty of ideas here
Hi.
I usually like to dedicate myself in the mornings. Haven’t done it in a while because I’ve been under the weather, but when I do, I often feel myself drawn to synchronicities.
I start with the bottoms of my feet, saying “Creator, help me go where You need me to go, today.”
Then I do chakras: root- “Help me to create…”
Sacral- Nurture
Solar Plexus- Organize
Heart- Feel
Then I do the palms of my hands- “Help me to do…”
Throat- Express
Then I do my senses: lips- Consume
Ears- hear
Nose- smell
Eyes- see
Third Eye- “Help me to understand…”
Crown- “Help me to connect where you need me to connect.”
Sometimes I draw a symbol on each part with blessing oil. It only takes a minute, and it feels good to look back at the end of the day and see where I was led.
Whatever you choose for your morning, may it comfort and connection.
Blessings Be!
Absolutely. I think it’s natural for most interests to wax and wane, much like the moon itself! Nothing wrong with needing to step back or wanting to focus on other things for a bit. Magick is always there at our fingertips whenever we’re ready to call for it
That’s awesome - I hope the results are what you’re hoping for!
It’s both a full moon and a lunar eclipse here where I’m at, so I think I’ll just stick to my usual meditations plus some journaling work. Gonna keep it simple
I’ve always been drawn to the moon, too – there’s something about it in the stillness of night, the darkness especially prevalent in the hours when no one else is up, that stirs something within me. It’s hard to explain, but the pull is there.
I also don’t have much of a morning routine right now. I do drink my coffee, but the making of the coffee is overshadowed by the bustle of the busy morning getting my partner off to work and my child off to school before I also start my work day. I always feel like I need to be more mindful about it, but to be honest, that would just mean waking up earlier than I care to do right now and I’m okay with that it is what it is!
Oh, that’s exciting! I hope it went well and that you get good news!!
I didn’t do anything for this one. I’ve been really tired lately and enjoying my break from classes this week. I might do a meditation later this evening but I’m not making any definitive plans as of right now.
for your interview I’m not a morning person and because of that Ive never been successful with morning rituals but I’m sure you’ll get plenty of ideas here
It’s good to see you around again!
it is what it is!
