Liberate yourself with this inspiring solar eclipse ritual.
A solar eclipse is an opportunity to break old chains, step out of old patterns, and fly free into beautiful new paradigms.
This relatively simple solar eclipse ritual will help with all of it: releasing the old, embracing the new, and setting your soul free.
It’s best to do this ritual as close to the moment of the solar eclipse as possible.
Ingredients:
One gray votive candle in holder
One white votive candle in holder
A clock
Lighter or matches
A few minutes before the eclipse, sit comfortably and center yourself. Place the gray candle on your altar or a flat surface in front of you. Feel that it represents old heaviness and stuck energy in your life, as well as anything that no longer serves or defines you.
At the moment of the eclipse, blow the gray candle out. Feel and sense that all power and momentum has been removed from these things in your life. Just for this moment, release all worries and fears. Release the sense that any of this old stuff has any power over you. Feel a deep sense of inner stillness, quiet, and calm.
After about a minute, remove the gray candle from your altar and replace it with the white one.
Light the white candle. Feel that it represents personal freedom and new beginnings. Feel the euphoria and lightness of experiencing your most beautiful vision for your life. Trust that this is possible. Trust that you are a divine child, beloved and deserving of every wonderful thing.
Allow this candle to continue to burn for as long as you can keep an eye on it for the purpose of fire safety (it’s OK to take it with you from room to room). As it burns, it would be a good idea to engage in self-loving activities such as dancing, baking, taking a bath, relaxing with a book, journaling, painting, or anything else you really love to do.
When you’re sure it’s safe to do so, remove the gray candle from the holder and throw it away.
Did you perform this solar eclipse ritual? How did it feel?
I can’t wait to start my journey and to learn new things. I’m really excited. Thank you for allowing me to join.
Yvonne, glad you’re excited! Thanks for reading and connecting. 🙂
Thank you for sharing this , I can so feel the new beginnings ,already doors are opening L&L ??
YAY, Elizabeth! Happy eclipse. 🙂
Should the lighting of the first candle be when the eclipse first begins or closet to when it’s in it’s totality?
Hi Jennifer! Thanks for reading! The lighting of the first candle happens a few minutes before the eclipse. Then blow it out during the eclipse. The second candle is for after the eclipse is over.
Thank you! I can’t wait to try this!
Hi Tess!
I have to work during the eclipse but I would really like to perform this ritual. Can I do it the morning of the eclipse? Which will be several hours before it begins. Or can I do the first part with the black candle in the morning and the second part with the white candle at night when I return home?
Thanks!
Ana
I was going to ask this same question!
Hi Kaylee! Yes, as I mentioned to Ana, doing it in two parts sounds like an excellent idea.
Yes: I love the first part in the morning, second when you return idea!
Didn’t have anything planned and did this today. Thank you for such a simple process. I also shared it in my Feed Her Soul Tribe Facebook group!
