Ritual Practice

Take a bar of soap or a small clay tablet (air-dry clay). Using a toothpick or a nail, slowly and deliberately carve a simple, repeating symbol (e.g., a spiral, a wave, a rune) into its surface. As you carve, whisper a single word you wish to make 'permanent' in your life. Let the object sit on your windowsill for a full lunar cycle.

Questions for Reflection

"What stories am I trying to tell through my actions?"
