Planting New Year Seeds Manifestation Ritual

 
 
 

Welcome to a transformative New Year ritual that will help you release the old and welcome the new with intention and mindfulness. This ritual involves a symbolic burning ceremony, planting a seedling, and the heartopening power of Ritual Cacao.


Materials Needed

  1. Red candle

  2. Plant pot and soil

  3. Seedling or seeds

  4. Paper and pen

  5. Ritual Cacao ingredients (cacao, hot water, optional sweetener and spices)


Step 1: Prepare Your Space

Find a quiet and comfortable space, and time where you won't be disturbed. Set up your materials in a way that feels sacred to you, there are no rules - just feel it out.

Step 2: Cook Your Ritual Cacao

Begin by brewing a delicious nourishing cup of Ritual Cacao. Allow the rich aroma to centre you, as you prepare for the ritual. While cooking up your chocolate medicine, think about what no longer serves you, and what would serve you better this new year.

Step 3: Reflect and Release

With your cacao in hand, reflect on the past year, drinking slowly and savouring the moment. Write down on a piece of paper what no longer serves you. This could be negative thoughts, habits, or experiences. Take your time with this, allowing the heart opening power of cacao to guide your introspection. Sip your drink throughout this ritual.

Step 4: The Burning Ceremony

Light the red candle, representing the fire and passion within you. Read aloud what you wrote, acknowledging the release of these burdens. Safely burn the paper with the candle flame, symbolising the release of these energies.

Step 5: Planting the Seeds

As a symbol of new beginnings, plant the seedling or seeds in the soil-filled plant pot. Write down on another piece of paper all the things you wish to happen and grow in the coming year. Plant this paper at the bottom of the pot, burying it along with the roots of your seed or seedling.

Step 6: Nurture and Manifest

Water the planted seedling, infusing it with your intentions. As you care for the plant, watch your desires manifest and grow throughout the year.


May this New Year ritual bring about positive transformation, growth, and the manifestation of your deepest desires. Embrace the year ahead with gratitude and anticipation for the beautiful experiences that await… Happy 2024
