Rituals for Reducing and/or Negating Negativity
Ritual #1 (Water Ritual)
If you live near a body of water, such as a river, lake or ocean (streams are too small) this ritual may be effective. Somewhere near the body of water, find a small, flat, round stone. Go to the water's edge, and sit in a comfortable position. If the weather is warm, dangle your feet in the water, or even immerse yourself up to your chest, if you like. Hold the stone cupped in both hands, and close your eyes. Visualise all the negativity around you...visualise not only the negative energy, but the events that may have as well. When you can think of no more, hold the stone up to your mouth, still cupped in your hands, and breath all the negativity into it. When all the negativity is gone, stand up, and hurl the stone as far away from you as you can, into the water.
Ritual #2 (Earth Ritual)
Take a fresh piece of fruit (preferably native to your area) and go outside to a place where you can be alone and comfortable. Sit down and relax as much as you can. Visualise all of your negativity and the events that caused them, and hold the fruit to your mouth. Take a small nibble, and as your teeth sink into the fruit, send the negativity into the fruit. Swallow the piece you bit off, the piece that remains pure. With your hands, dig a small hole in the earth and bury the fruit. Patt the earth smooth, and walk away, leaving the negativity behind you.
Ritual #3 (Fire Ritual)
Make a small fire in a fireplace or an iron cauldron. Take a piece of paper and a pen or pencil, and write down all the negativity you wish to be rid of. Send the negativity into the paper as you write it down, and when you are done, crush the paper into a small ball and toss it into the fire. Watch it burn until it is nothing more than ashes.
Ritual #4 (Air Ritual)
If it is windy out, take a handful of salt outside. As you walk, send the negativity, and the events that caused them, into the salt. Once you are outside, dance with the wind for a bit, and as you twist and turn like and with the wind, let the salt slowly slip from your hand. When all the salt is gone, drop to the ground on all fours, then fling your hands into the air. Release any leftover negativity and go back inside, or whatever you wish.
