An Equinox Candle Ritual
You Will Need
For this, you will need three candles in white, green, and yellow,
a bowl of milk or fresh water, another bowl of honey or sugar, and lavender or violet oil.
Method

  1. Anoint the three candles with the oil, and set them on your altar.
  2. Light the green candle. This represents the earth, as it blossoms back into life. As the candle burns, meditate on the earth awakening from winter.What does this growth mean to you? What seeds do you hope to plant and harvest as the year rolls onward?
  3. Next, light the yellow candle. This represents the sun, who will join with the earth to produce new life. Meditate on this growing warmth and joy How can you help cultivate it in your life, and spread its blessing to others?
    4, Then, light the white candle. Meditate on the relationships between nature and humanity, and humanity and your gods (if you have them). The earth nourishes people, how can you give back to it?
  4. When you are ready, say thank you to the earth and sun. Mingle the honey and the milk together, to represent the sun impregnating the fertile earth. Pour your offering on the ground, or in your garden.
