Fellowship of the Ring

Color of the day:  Amber
Incense of the day:  Heliotrope
 
Today in 1954, J.R.R. Tolkien published The Fellowship of the Ring, wherein we learn that Bilbo Baggins's "precious" is a manipulative weapon, charged with the energy of the evil Sauron. Of course, there are other rings imbued with positive power, giving their wearers the strength they need to deal with the challenges they have to face. You can do the same.

Ask your fellowship-those whom you call your closest companions-to imbibe a token with their energies so you can carry them with you. Select a piece of jewelry that holds meaning for you (it does not have to be a ring). Have each friend hold the piece, breathe on it, and say:

"To this token I give some grace,
Let it stand for (your name) in my place."

Wear and feel the power of friendship. You can do this ritual as a group to multiply and share support.
