Relationship Resolution Ritual
By Selene Silverwind.

What you will need:
parchment
red pen
pink candle

Perform this ritual on the evening of January 1, or whenever you recover from your hangovers.

1. Come into sacred space.

2. Invite Hera to join you by saying: "Goddess Hera, Ruler of relationships and promises kept, Please join us on this first day of our new year,
as we resolve to change, refresh, and renew our relationship."

3. Light the pink candle.

4. Calmly discuss your proposed relationship resolutions.

5. Write down the resolutions you agree upon.

6. Say, "Lady Hera, we are here before you with our resolutions. Please help us to keep them, but do not be unkind should we occasionally forget them."

7. Read your resolutions aloud.

8. Hold the paper between you. Couple breathe and eye gaze to raise the energy of promises kept. Focus on remembering and keeping your resolutions. When you feel the paper is charged, set it on your altar. Say, "We do this for the good of ourselves and our relationship.
May no harm come from these."

9. Say, "Lady Hera, we thank you for joining us and for lending us your energy as we resolved to improve our relationship. We thank you for your assistance in keeping our promises. Stay if you will, go if you must. Farewell and blessed be."

10. Release sacred space. Post your resolutions somewhere you will see them frequently.
