So it is the first of July, What do you do?
A lot have heard of the cinnamon ritual but there are many other things that you can do spiritually for yourself and your home on the 1st of the month. Here are more ideas that you can do on the 1st. See the post after this for alternatives to using cinnamon.
One of the first things that I like to do on the 1st is to get my calendar and myself set for the month.
That is when I set my big goals or intentions for the month after writing all my other commitments I've made for July like birthdays, weddings, appointments ECT.
🗓️ Pick three primary intentions or goals for the month. Don't do more you may overwhelm yourself. If 3 is making your chest tighten choose 1 or 2 goals. Write them in a journal, planner, or on your calendar. Another way in this technologically advanced world is to make a note on your phone and screenshot it; then set it to your background. That way every time you look at your phone you are reminded of your goals. Use them to direct you this month.
I also take that time to set my financial goals.
💰Review your finances! Use this time and your calendar to make a budget or review an already made one, pay up bills that will be coming, and review your spending in relation to your 3 big goals.
When making a budget it comes down to spending, saving, and giving. How much do you need to spend, how much will you put back to save and how much will you give others. Who you give to can be a cause you donate to, church if you go, your kids, a homeless person ECT. This month stay financially mindful!
🎴Now is the time I would do a tarot reading for the month ahead. If you practice yourself then you can do this. If you do not then I can provide you with a PAID reading. I'm offering a 3 card spread or for a more advance reading 5 cards. I write my predictions down on my calendar.
📱Now is also a good time to get rid of the digital clutter! Delete old emails, downloads, and screenshots. Unscribe from those junk emails. Organize your desktop to give yourself a clean digital slate.
I know what I've said so far doesn't seem very magical but I wanted to get all that out of the way first because now you will have a better understanding of what you want, and the challenges you may face. It clears out the mental clutter and sets focus on what you want for the weeks ahead.
🚪Now that the foundation is taken care of it is time for the front door entryway.
Sweep your front porch. Clean and protect your home by making a door wash. Take a bucket of hot water ( not so hot that you can't safely touch it), a mild soap, and your choice of mint or basil to the hot water with the intention that you are protected and wealth and prosperity will come knocking. You have just made a spell and ward. Wash your door, doorknobs, and knocker. Use protective elements like salt across the threshold (I put it under my mat.) or a new cinnamon stick above the door to block out negativity.
🧿Before you walk back in do your cinnamon ritual.
Stand outside of your front door facing the inside of your house, place a pinch of cinnamon in your hand, say "rabbit rabbit" and blow the cinnamon in your house. While blowing the cinnamon in visualize you meeting your goals. Think about the feeling of having abundance, success, and prosperity flowing into your home.
🐇You actually just did 2 first of the month rituals as saying rabbit rabbit is said to bring good luck for the next 30 days.
🌿Before focusing on the rest of the house reset your simmer pot.
Fill a pot with water, sliced citrus, oranges, lemons and/or limes, cloves, and cinnamon sticks ( or whatever else you want). Let it simmer to clear the air, fill your home with intention and a delightful smell.
🛁 Take a spiritual bath or shower to relax and cleanse.
Take an intentional bath or shower with Epsom salt, essential oils ( body safe, food grade) or fresh herbs like rosemary. This will help physically and spiritually wash the energy away from the last month

Thank you so much for your support and I hope you have an amazing July!
