Outside my front door, the yellow-crocus and snowdrops are blooming now. And the wrens are flying to my window box, wondering if it would make a good home; they know, like we do, that February is a time of renewal. Let this period of change inspire you to refresh your mind and your body with a health-boosting ritual. To start, on your altar place a white candle in the center, then light it and say:

I light this candle to renew my spirit.

To the left, light a yellow candle, then say:

This flame fires my imagination.

Lastly, light an orange candle on the right while saying:

My body is strong and healthy.

Thank the candles, and extinguish them. Now you're ready for the season of light to return.
