Ritual Practice

Take a piece of paper and draw the outline of an animal. Slowly, mindfully, tear the paper along the outline. Place the 'hide' on a flat surface. With a candle (or LED light), slowly circle the paper three times, whispering thanks for its transformation. Then, write a new intention on the paper and fold it into a small square, carrying it as a talisman of adaptability.
