Burning Bowl Ritual

I surrender to the fire of transformation and allow light to guide the way.

Fire is a powerful tool for transmuting negative energies, letting go of old patterns and stories, and sending prayers out to the Universe. Connect with the fire element to release whatever is no longer serving you and to manifest your desires.

To prepare for your ritual, ask yourself these questions and write down the answers on individual pieces of paper:

1. What old stories about you, people in your life, or the world do you want to let go of? 2. What experiences have you lived through or conquered that require acknowledgment? 3. What thought patterns, beliefs, experiences, or people do you want to let go of? 4. What do you want to manifest?

Next, prepare a safe fire. Burn your pieces of paper and send your wishes off into the Universe for manifestation. You can use a campfire, a barbecue, or a small bowl placed in your sink to keep it extra safe. As you watch the paper burn, imagine your wishes as if they have already happened. Imagine yourself free of worry. Imagine yourself liberated from what's been holding you back. Say to yourself, 'And so it is. So it must be.'

How do you feel after completing the fire burning ritual? Is there anything more you'd like to release?
