Embodying Creative Fertility with The Empress & Geranium
A Fertility Crystal & Floral Bath Ritual & an Incense Recipe
Fertility Crystal and Floral Bath:
Best timing: Full Moon (as that is the moon’s own fullest power and fecundity)
You will need:
a white or a green candle (or a color that represents an aspect of your life that you want to bring more fertility to)
a moonstone or clear quartz crystal or both (to help amplify the energy of the full moon)
the Empress card placed near you (to help you meditate on abundance, creation and fertility)
dried or fresh rose geranium flowers
Instructions:
Place the crystals and the geranium flowers in your bath of warm water, along with any other additions you feel will help you with your intention.
Inscribe and dress your candle as you see fit – I recommend including the Venus symbol as well as the moon symbol, and place the lit candle and the Empress card near the bath where you can see them as you soak.
Once in the bath, meditate on the energies of the Empress and the supportive magick of the Geranium flowers fully engulfing your entire being.
You may choose to repeat the following words, 3 times:
“Rose Geranium and Empress supreme
Help me to realize my creative dream.”
Stay in the tub for as long as you desire. You can snuff out your candle when you’ve finished with your bath or let it burn down completely. If you want to continue to work with the energy of the Empress, place the card on your altar and leave it there for as long as you see fit.
Creative Fertility Incense Recipe
You can burn this incense any time you want to bring in the influences of Creativity and Fertility - or even during the above bath ritual:
You will need:
your empress card (to place where you work and help you focus your intention on creating an incense that empowers the energies of fertility, abundance and creativity)
dried geranium and 2 or 3 of any of the following plant/tree materials: oak, pine, olive leaf, honeysuckle, basil, grape, lemon balm, mugwort, vervain, yarrow, cedar, juniper, patchouli, anise
Blend or grind these together with a morter and pestle – you can use a combination of plant materials and oils - and sprinkle over a charcoal disk whenever you are working to increase fertility, abundance and creative energies, or simply want to embody the Empress as fully as possible.
