A Release Ritual for Embracing Pleasure
Â
Taurus asks that we embrace earthy luxury, that we settle
into incarnate experience with as much joy and richness as possible. Use this lunation to release any expectations that are stopping you from living in pleasure. You will need:Â
- your coziest things (fuzzy socks, soft sweater, a blanket, all the pillows, whatever is cozy to you!)Â
- a pen and paperÂ
- a candle
- a cauldronÂ
Adorn yourself in your coziest wear, surround yourself with your coziest things. Fuzzy socks, soft
blankets, pillows galore, you name it. Make the yummiest drink you can imagine. Hot cocoa with whipped cream, a milkshake, your favorite tea.Â
Â
On a piece of paper write down every limiting thought that occurs when you want to do something pleasurable but don't (I'm writing down things like "I've got too much to do", "there's not enough
time", etc. )Â
Â
Light your candle with the intention of release, and then light that paper on fire. Place it inside your cauldron or other fire proof container, and while your limiting beliefs are reduced to ashes sip on your drink. Bask in that pleasure. Reconstruct those beliefs into positive statements; I do have time, I have nothing
more important to do than this.Â
