On this day in 1963, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas. Most Americans alive at the time can say where they were when they heard the announcement. When it is important to pay attention and be fully present in your life every moment, place sandalwood incense, patchouli oil, a brown or white candle, and a small bowl of soil from a garden or natural outdoor space on your altar.

Call in your deities and light the incense while grounding your energies with Mother Earth. Light the candle and focus your attention on the flame, asking for focus. Take the bowl of soil and lift it up to the universe and chant:

By the wisdom
Of this dark soil,
When distracted
By my life of toil,
Freedom from distraction
Is my vow.
I will be here now!
I will be here now!


Anoint your body in a star shape, saying "be here now" with each step: left foot, right hand, left hand, right foot and forehead. Extinguish the candle and thank spirit. Later, when you feel yourself distracted, whisper "I will be here now" to yourself.
