Night of the Sacred Chalice
The eighth night - January 1st
Cleanse my heart, O Spirit, that I may hold purity
Zodiac: Virgo
Month: August
Siddhi: Gene Key 12 – Purity
Theme: Remember the soul as a vessel of purity, prepared to receive divine wisdom and serve.
Practice: Visualise your soul as clear water. Allow any murkiness, heaviness or distraction to dissolve. Fill the vessel with stillness and clarity.
Journal: What can I release to allow clarity and integrity to guide my actions and thoughts this year?
Optional Wild Pagan Rite: Collect clean water and bless it with salt. Use it to wash your hands or anoint your forehead, symbolising renewal. Pour a little on the earth in gratitude for the purity of life.
