Mask Exploration Ritual
Color of the day: Green Incense of the day: Gardenia Incense of the day: Gardenia Tonight is Samhain, the night of spirits. People dress up in masks to prevent malign entities from recognizing anyone and to scare them away. Masks can reveal who we are deep inside, or allow us to impersonate something we're not. Masks employ some of the oldest magic known to humanity. They even appear in cave paintings! Find two plain white masks. Collect some art supplies, such as colored pencils or markers, glitter-glue, sequins, feathers, and so on. One mask in meant to represent your true nature and your inner self. The other represents your outer self, the face you present to the world. Decorate your masks, one at a time, taking care to express in each mask these different aspects of yourself. Now explore. Try on the masks and look in a mirror. How does each make you feel? Hold the masks so that they are facing each other. What might your inner and outer selves say to each other? The first rule of magic is "To know," so start by knowing yourself! |
