SUCCESSFUL ARIES RITUAL
Ritual Components:
A red candle (representing Aries and the Sun)
A sigil or symbol representing your specific intention
A piece of paper and a red pen
Cinnamon, ginger, and frankincense essential oils
A small piece of iron or an iron nail (representing Mars, the ruler of Aries)
Offerings for Ogun (the Orisha associated with Aries): red palm oil, chili peppers, and rum
Instructions:
Cleanse your ritual space with the frankincense essential oil, and cast a circle of protection.
On the piece of paper, write down your specific intention for the area of life represented by the house where Aries is found in your natal chart. Be clear and concise.
Create a sigil or symbol that represents your intention, and draw it on the paper using the red pen.
Anoint the red candle with the cinnamon and ginger essential oils, focusing on your intention.
Carve your sigil or symbol into the candle using a nail or a small blade.
Place the iron piece or nail at the base of the candle, symbolizing the strength and energy of Mars.
Light the candle, and hold the paper with your intention in front of you.
Invoke Ogun, the Orisha of iron and war, by offering the red palm oil, chili peppers, and rum. Ask for his blessings and guidance in channeling the transformative power of Aries and the Sun into your intention.
Speak your intention out loud three times, with conviction and enthusiasm. Visualize the energy of the Sun and Aries filling the house in your natal chart, igniting your desire and motivation to take bold action towards your goal.
Allow the candle to burn down completely. As it burns, focus on your intention and visualize it manifesting in your life.
Once the candle has burned out, take the paper with your intention and sigil, and bury it in the earth or in a potted plant, symbolizing the planting of your intention in the material world.
Thank Ogun and the energies of the Sun and Aries for their assistance, and close your ritual space.
In the days following the ritual, take inspired action towards your intention, harnessing the boldness, courage, and initiative of Aries. Trust in the transformative power of the Sun and the support of the Orishas as you embrace new beginnings and pursue your goals with passion and determination.
Remember, the specific house where Aries is found in your natal chart will determine the area of life that is most energized and ready for transformation at this time. Focus your intentions and actions accordingly, and remain open to the opportunities and growth that unfold.
May the power of Aries and the Sun, combined with the wisdom of Ifa and the blessings of the Orishas, guide you towards the fulfillment of your deepest desires and the awakening of your true potential. Ashe!
