New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| Color of the day: Purple
Incense of the day: Vanilla This time of year is often very busy, filled with the joy of doing things for others. But sometimes people overextend themselves and end up tired and stressed. The goddess Venus has sometimes been described as selfish and demanding, but there are times when we need to be a little selfish and do something nice for ourselves so we can be available to others. Pamper yourself with a bath by wrapping the following in cheesecloth: one chamomile tea bag, dried thyme, lavender, and peppermint. Add the bag to the bath water. Light candles in various shades of green and pink and use bubble bath if you desire. Play relaxing music or do whatever it takes to relax, even if it's just for a few minutes. Visualize both the strong and the loving characteristics of Venus, which will increase your ability to share love with others. |
