Did you know that the Romans honored the Egyptian goddess Isis? She was magical, beautiful, and nurturing. Around March 5, an annual festival was held to honor her as the patroness of sailors. Offerings of spices and other valuables were made to her by setting them afloat on a special ship with a white sail. A parade of worshippers carrying torches and candles would leave flower petals, perfume, and milk in the streets. Create your own centerpiece or altar to honor Isis today. Start with a bowl or dish of water; add a few drops of perfume, essential oils, or milk. Float candles or flowers on the water. (Be careful of the flowers near flame.) You can float candles on the water and put flowers around the dish, or vice versa. Meditate on the characteristics that caused many to call Isis the "Queen of Heaven" and draw this energy into your life.
