A "Welcome Home" Ritual


When you or a friend move into a new home, place a wreath on the front door and also on outside of the kitchen door or back door, if your kitchen doesn’t lead directly outside. Gather two bundles of dried hops or eucalyptus, tie them with green and brown ribbons and hang them high on the door.  Walk through each door with a brown candle in a glass votive jar and aromatic cinnamon incense. 

Intone:

House of my body, I accept your shelter.
Home of my heart, I receive your blessings.
Home of my heart, I am open to joy.
And so it is. And so it shall be.
