July Full Thunder Moon: Cutting the Cord with Past Emotional Hurts

Priestess of Aphrodite

This ritual is designed to help you release any energetic ties to something hurtful in your past that you still carry with you even though it is no longer serving you. You will need a piece of string or twine, a pair of scissors, and something to ground you afterwards. I recommend really focusing on creating a safe sacred space before you start this ritual, and having your circle be a strong container for your powerful emotions. Feeling safe is incredibly important as you surrender your emotions and allow them to flow through you and out of you as you cut the cord.

Ritual: Weaving Joy and Play into the Everyday

Priestess of Aphrodite

I led this ritual for the holiday of Beltane this year, but its sentiments are appropriate throughout Beltane season (and really, all year long!). The full moon this weekend would be a wonderful time to perform this ritual. You will need three strands of ribbon, yarn, or thread - red, orange, and yellow. If you don’t have those specific colors, you can pick other colors that symbolize these themes for you, or even color the ends of some plain twine with a marker. This ritual was originally performed with a group, but here it has been modified for individual practice.
