*ANNOITNING RITUAL*
You will need a 25ml bottle, ROSE, MYRRH & NEROLI essential oils
Step 1 : SMUDGE your space and your bottle.
Step 2: Hold your bottle to the heart and speak clearly your intention.
:Take 3 heart breaths infusing the bottle with the exhale of your spirit.
Step 4: Add 6 drops of ROSE, 6 drops of MYRRH and 9 drops of NEROLI
Step 5: Fill with a carrier oil; almond, or olive
Step 6: Activate the oil with the Aramaic mantra
‘INANA NOOHRA”
– I AM THE LIGHT –
Step 7 : Place the oil on your Altar and pray for the healing and clearing of your womb space.
Step 8 : After meditation or a nice cleansing bath you can use the oil to anoint the womb, wrists, soles of the feet, temples and third eye.
I recommend continuing this ritual daily for a full lunar cycle.

You will need
1–2 handfuls organic dried rose petals
6–8 cups filtered water
Large heat-safe bowl
Long skirt, robe, or blanket
1. Create Your Space
Dim the lights. Light a candle if you wish.
Place one hand on your heart, one on your womb.
Take a slow breath and whisper:
“I return to myself with love.”
2. Prepare the Roses
Bring water to a gentle boil.
Remove from heat and add rose petals.
Cover and steep for 10–15 minutes.
3. Begin the Steam
Pour the infusion into a heat-safe bowl.
Let it cool to a comfortably warm temperature (never hot).
Undress from the waist down and position yourself over the bowl (squatting or kneeling).
Wrap a skirt or blanket around your waist to hold the steam in.
Close your eyes.
Breathe deeply.
Allow the warm rose steam to softly embrace you.
Stay for 10–20 minutes.
4. Close Gently
When finished, rest for at least 20 minutes.
Drink warm water or tea.
Move slowly and tenderly.
Gentle Reminders
Avoid during pregnancy or menstruation.
Steam 1–2 times per month.
This is a ritual of softness — not perfection.

*Salt Water ~ Ritual:*
the Magdalene is the “Salt of the Earth” ~ as her embodiment of Sophia Consciousness, the creative waters of the womb. Our tears contain Salt, and so when we cry ~ our tears, clearing our vision, clearing our emotional & energetic body ~ allow us “to see, more clearly” ~ which is why they have been associated with Seers – ones who can see. Salt, is also an essential element in the refinement process of alchemy ~ and so Salt, can also be worked with in our own inner alchemical processes.
For the ritual ~ gather ideally high quality, unrefined sea salt and spring water ~ intentionally mix the two together, and anoint your womb, heart, third eye (your seeing eye), your physical eyes (with eyes closed) ~ and anywhere on the body in which you wish to call in clearer sight, clarity and purification. You may speak prayers and intentions as you do so.
Other ways you can work with Salt and water is by regular dips in the ocean if you’re close by, or warm, Epsom Salt or Sea Salt baths.
The invitation is to work with this practice as often as possible, but at least once a week.
*Land & Water Source practice:*
If possible, find your local spring ~ or body of water, & see over this coming cycle that you can begin to regularly visit, bringing offerings and communicating with the waters. If its drinkable water, you can also gather some and drink it (including it in the ritual below) ~ or otherwise collect it to have on your altar, beginning to build this thread of connection with your local waters. If you are joining us on the pilgrimage, you are invited to collect a small vial of this water to bring with you to the South of France.
*Water Communication Ritual:*
Using water that ideally you have collected from a spring ~ creating a simple, yet daily or frequent ritual of speaking to the water ~ asking it to gently purify and clear your physical and energetic body of any debris that may be preventing you from being in true, sovereign alignment. To ask it to support you in returning to your true essence & connection to source. You may add any other particular prayers, or intentions into your water ~ remembering to give thanks also ~ and then mindfully drinking it, feeling the water move through your being, and merging with the waters of your body, encoding it with the information you have seeded with your words. Water responds to our emotions, so see that you can really feel your intentions as you plant them.
