POWER OF 4

In Tarot, the number 4 symbolizes structure, foundation, stability, stagnation, manifestation, practical application, formation, concentration, organization and planning. It is the result of a well-built foundation and proper application. It is the natural outcome of desire and imagination.

Try this simple ritual on the fourth of any month to restore balance in all areas of your life.

ITEMS NEEDED

• 4 Candles - any color. I like using 4 different color candles for this ritual. Each set with an intention to bring balance to a different aspect of life: Love, Work, Spiritual Development, Recreation. Create your own aspects based your personal needs.

WHAT TO DO

• Light 4 candles at once and recite your prayer, spell, affirmation. This can be achieved by lighting a white candle and holding the wicks of the 4 smaller candle to its flame at the same time.

• Sample chant (repeat three times):

Four the quarters, full of power, earth, air, fire and water. Four the seasons, blessings through all, winter, spring, summer, fall. Four for balance in my life, work and play, dark and light. Four for a year with growth as its base, with joy for all in measured pace. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. And so it is!
