so, i have felt the calling towards the path of healing. i have already healed people on multiple occasions, and it just feels right

but the problem is, i have found that it doesnt feel official yet. i feel like i can't claim the title officially.  a friend of mine recommended a good idea to me, though!: to have a personal ceremony/ritual

i found this idea to be so incredible so here we are. a Healer’s Ritual

Materials:

sun water (or water charged with whatever energy source you pull from)

yellow yarn or ribbon

your favorite edible herb of choice (optional)

sage and/or incense

a white candle

scissors

a lighter

a “my path is mine” sigil

a clean room (preferably alone)

some sort of jewelry or anything that you'll be able to keep on your person (optional)

Directions:

light the white candle, signifying the start of the ritual

(optional) place your jewelry or item of choice next to the candle to charge throughout the ritual

take the scissors and cut a strand of the ribbon or yarn to fit around your neck comfortably

tie the string around your neck, similar to the style of a choker

say: “all words spoken will come from a place of wholesome intent”

cut another strand to fit around your dominant wrist

say: “all things given will come from a place of wholesome intent”

cut a strand to fit around your other wrist

say: “all things received will come from a place of wholesome intent”

(optional) cut a strand to fit around your waist

say: all moves made will come from a place of wholesome intent”

cut a strand to fit around your dominant ankle

say: “all steps made will come from a place of wholesome intent”

cut one last strand to fit around your other ankle

say: “all steps made will come from a place of wholesome intent”

(optional) place the herb on your tongue and reflect on how you want your path to continue

smoke cleanse the room with your sage and incense. open a window if possible to let the old energy leave the room

take your water and use it to draw your sigil onto the floor. your walking ground is now lined with solidarity

(optional) blow out your candle as you pick up your jewelry item. put it on and feel the energy of your new healer’s talisman 

finish the ritual by praying (if applicable), and blowing out your candles and removing your strings. keep the strings somewhere special, if you’d like

i have just completed this ritual, and i now truly feel like a healer. 

some sigils i made!
