In the northern hemisphere where I live we have snow!!!!
I thought I would share some ways people can use snow in their practice.
PROTECTIVE SNOW GOLEM
YOU CAN MAKE A SNOWMAN TO SERVE AS A PROTECTIVE GOLEM OUTSIDE YOUR HOME!!!!! You can use herbs and clothing magic to boost its protective qualities. A black scarf would be perfect for protection, or even a coconut bra if you want to add a little humor 🙂 coconuts represent the Moon and water and are very protective.
SNOWBALL BANISHING
If someone is bothering you, write their name on a piece of paper and pack it into a snowball. Go outside and throw the snowball as far away from yourself as you can.
CLEANSING
Use a stick, or a gloved finger and write what is troubling you in the snow. Take a visualizing breath to wash it away, then wipe away your message in the snow.
HEALING AND RELAXING
Making a snow angel is fun and can represent healing. The snow angel can help us visualize healing and it can be relaxing to lay in the snow.
MEDITATION
Watching the snowfall is incredibly relaxing and can help us meditate. You can also build a fort in the snow and use it as a comfortable place to relax.
CONNECTING WITH NATURE
Brew yourself a hot thermos of tea, coffee, or hot chocolate and take a walk. In the winter the world is glittering still and fragile. It can be nice to spend time outside.
These are just a few ways we can incorporate snow into our spiritual path. Get creative and enjoy this winter season.
