AIR RITUAL

Whenever we work with the elements, it helps to interact with them in nature. When we imagine ourselves feeling a cool breeze, or opening the windows to our home in the spring, or receiving a swirl of wind in the fall, how do we feel? What does this bring up for us?

Wind is the element of clear communication, and clear thought. It is the element that carries our wishes, hopes and prayers up into the heavens. It is the element of brilliant ideas and how to share them, or genius innovations and how to formulate them.

When we are working with wind, we are working with the spreading thoughts and ideas where they are meant to go, holding them lightly and trusting that they will be carried in divine timing to exactly who is meant to receive them.

Call in the wind when you want to clear the air between you and a friend, or when you need fresh energy in your mind or home. Call in the wind when you have something you need to say and you are searching for the pointed and compassionate ways to say them. Call in the wind when you want clarity.

Try this ritual to connect with the energy of wind.

Go outside on a windy day or to a place where the water meets the land. Feel the breeze and the movement of the air.

Ask the air to cleanse your energy. Turn counterclockwise to let it clear your past.

Turn clockwise to let it call in your highest good.

Sit or stand in stillness and let the wind whisper in your ear.

What do you hear?

After you have received your message from the wind, whisper a thank you or sing a song into the wind as an offering.

Close your eyes and notice how you feel or what has shifted.
