I'd use my treadmill more often, really I would.......if only the kitty didn't want to use it, too! As you can see, my cat (Triangle) uses the treadmill way more than I do. At the time this photo was taken, I was relaxing in the rocking chair, eating Whoppers and waiting for my turn to exercise. Before I knew it, we were both sound asleep, and the treadmill's only workout was as a kitty bed.
Obviously, Mr Triangle and I are both in need of some serious motivation! So we're going to set off a positive, motivating, energy spell tonight. If you'd like to try it, too, here's what to do:
Materials
3 small, brightly colored candles. (I plan to use red, orange, and yellow)
3 raisins
1 energy bar, cut into 3 pieces
1 golden apple, cut into 3 pieces
1 goblet (or glass) filled with wine or sparkling cider
Cinnamon (or some other spicy flavor) incense
Motivating music - anything with a strong, powerful beat will do.
Place each candle on a fireproof candle holder or plate and place them on your altar. If you don't have an altar, use a counter or a table. The darkest color candle goes in the center with the other two on either side of it. Turn on the music. In front of each candle, place a raisin, one slice of the energy bar and one piece of apple. Now, take a sip of the wine or cider and light the left candle while repeating this phrase:
"As this candle is lit, I draw energy and motivation from these gifts of the earth. My mind is clear, my body is ready, and my heart desires to achieve my goals."
Light the candle on the right and repeat the words above.
Now, light the middle candle while repeating the words above for the third time.
Drink the rest of the wine and let the candles burn down. It's okay to dance while you're waiting. When the candles are gone, wrap up the food and offer it to the earth by burying it in the garden or in a container on your patio.
