My Deep Summer Ritual Tools

🌱 Everything I’m reaching for this month to nourish the roots — journaling, candlelight, and small grounding practices. A few of my go-to sources, linked below.

My go-to for integrating tarot into daily journal reflection. Moon phases, weekly intentions, and space to actually sit with what a card is telling me intuitively. Women-founded, and it shows in how thoughtfully it’s built.

These are made specifically for reading and reflecting— light one before you pull a card, let the scent hold the moment, snuff it out when you’re done. Small ritual, big shift in how present I feel during a reading.

Where I go for grounding tools — crystals, altar pieces, small additions to a quiet corner of the house. Good starting point if you’re building your own space for reflection and don’t know where to begin.

What I Use to Track My Own Cycle & Energy

Not really a wellness routine — just the subtle tools that help me notice my own patterns instead of fighting them. Cycle-syncing has taught me more about pacing myself than almost anything else. 🌙

Whatever specific planner you’re currently using — daily/weekly layout with cycle-phase tracking built in, so energy patterns become noticeable over a few months instead of feeling out of sync.

My go-to blend. Pair this with lemon and raw honey, and it’s refreshing and comforting. Help alleviate my menstrual pain in due time. Wonderful alternative if you don’t want to rely so much on prescription medication.

Books on the Mother Archetype & Feminine Power

The books that shaped how I think about the Mother archetype, feminine rage, and reclaiming power that was never really lost — just buried. A running list I keep adding to. 🌿

I feel that every woman has this book in their collection! This is foundational text for this whole category. Myth, folklore, and Jungian analysis on the “Wild Woman” archetype — heavy, but life-changing if you sit with it slowly.

Breaks down Greek goddess archetypes as psychological patterns in real women’s lives. A great way to identify which “mode” you default to, and which one you’re neglecting.

Less on mythology, more on modern retribution — on why women’s anger gets pathologized instead of honored, and what reclaiming it actually looks like.

If you’re familiar with Sue’s book, “The Secret Life of Bees,” you’ll find this one a great read too. A memoir of leaving a narrow-minded spiritual framework to find the sacred feminine instead. Gentle, personal, and a good starting point if Estés fe...
The Dance of the Dissident Daughter

This book is a really good read. I was skeptical at first, but it’s a great start on how to reclaim your sacred feminine of revealing your inner feminine, identity, and sensuality.

Light this when the noise finally stops. A 3-wick soy candle with earthy lavender, vanilla, violet, freesia, and black pepper — plus clear quartz crystals to keep once the wax is gone.

Ardra’s symbol, worn close. An 18K gold vermell teardrop pendant on a delicate rope chain — a soft reminder that the storm has a shape, and so does what comes after it.
