SUNDAY, APRIL 3, 2016
Colour of the day: Orange
Moon 4th quarter going Void-Of-Course 7:16 pm EST and will be VoC until Monday, April 4 at 1:45 am EST
As I've written about before on this page about Void-of-Course, it's worth repeating. Rituals done during the time when the Moon is Void-of-Course, which means it is making it's last aspect before entering the next sign (constellation), our intents just do not come to fruition, and that's at best. If the intent does manifest it may come out in an unexpected, or unwanted way. Working with the Moon's phases greatly affects our energies, and working with these energies amplifies our intent and will. As I always think about it, the Moon affects the tides, and we are roughly 80% water, it is naive to assume the Moons movements does not also affect us.
CLEANSING BATH
1/3 cup Epsom salt
1/3 cup sea salt
1/3 cup baking soda
Optional - a few drops of essential oil, or sachet of herbs, if you so desire
Add this to your bath. Water as hot as you can comfortably stand it. Light candles, if you wish. Surround yourself with some cleansing or healing crystals, completely up to you. Whatever will make you feel comfortable and relaxed. Perhaps some music, but preferably instrumental, something to create a relaxing ambiance and not too distracting.
Step into the bath with intent. I step in very slowly and thoughtfully, as though I am merging with the water, not just splashing into it. Once in the tub and comfy, know that all the negativity is being drawn out of you. that anything that no longer serves you is leaving you. You can say a cleansing prayer, either found online, in a book, or made up completely by yourself. You can call upon your guides, angels, deities, etc to assist in cleansing you.
Spend about 20-40 minutes in your bath.
Don't have a tub in your house? No worries! Put about a tablespoon worth of the salt mixture into a foot basin and soak your feet using all the same intent as described above. It will have the same affect.
When you are done, get out of tub with just as much intent as when you entered. Know that all that no longer serves you is left behind in the water. Watch it go down the drain when you take the stopper out (or dump the foot basin out). I usually give the sentiments, "Good riddance to bad rubbish," but feel free to think or say whatever you feel comfortable with.
Much Love
