Color of the day: White Incense of the day: Eucalyptus Incense of the day: Eucalyptus Winters can be long and spring can seem far away in February. Confined indoors by the cold and inhospitable weather, we can become depressed and lethargic. We neglect ourselves, and leave a dusty and cluttered household. Despite that it lifts the spirits to clean out all the physical and mental cobwebs, we still find it hard to do this basic task. To start, simply choose one room, preferably the room where you spend the most time. Burn some lavender incense. Smudge the corners of the room and yourself. Then open the blinds or drapes and call out: "Go, snow, go. Come, Sun, come!" Keep the incense burning, and with your broom walk deosil while sweeping the ceilings. Chant: "Sun and broom, sweep the room. Fill us with spring perfume." Continue cleaning from top to bottom. When the room is finished, take a deep breath and fill your lungs with the clean lavender scent. Envision your inner room as clean and full of spring's perfume. |
