As we approach the last day of 2021, how has your year been?
Recently, I read the book "The Alchemist," and a particular line resonated deeply with me: "When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it." Whenever I face challenges, I remind myself of this phrase to keep pushing forward.
I have a small ritual that I perform at the end of each year to set intentions for the coming one. This ritual not only helps clarify my life's direction and goals but also strengthens my inner desires and their realization.
Required Tools:
- A scented candle that you like
- A notebook, diary, or even a piece of letter paper
- A pen
The Method is Simple:
- Find a quiet and comfortable space to sit. Light the candle and take three deep breaths to give yourself some time to meditate and relax.
- Take out your notebook, diary, or piece of paper and write down anything that comes to mind about the new year. You can write or draw.
- Now, identify the three main goals or wishes that are most important to you for the upcoming year. Rewrite all these on a new piece of paper.
- Place the paper with your wishes in front of you. Hold the lit scented candle, close your eyes, and imagine yourself as you would be when your wishes come true.
- The imagined scene should be very clear. You may need to repeat the visualization several times until the image is vivid.
- After completing this, store the paper in a safe place. As each wish comes true, cross it off until every wish is fulfilled.
- Finally, take a bath to relax your body and mind, settle your thoughts, and prepare to welcome a new day.
This ritual is a powerful way to set intentions and manifest your desires for the new year.
