An extremely popular practice right now is to blow cinnamon through your door on the first of the month. It’s popular for good reason, as doing this can bring in prosperity for the new month.
However if you cant partake in this practice due to pets, allergies or any other reason - or simply would like to change/add more to your first of the month ritual, I’d like to offer some ideas!
First let’s talk about the significance of the first of the month and blowing an herb into the home. The first day of a month is a starting point. You can set the tone for how the rest of the month will unfold energetically. One is the number of beginnings and potential! Do not worry if you miss it or simply don’t feel up to it on the first you can of course still do the same practices any day of the month.
The act of blowing the cinnamon into your home is to symbolize that energy flowing into your household. This can be achieved through different means and different herbs all based on preference.
Want to change it up? - Alternative actions:
- Cinnamon in your coffee
- Put or refresh prosperous herbs & crystals in your wallet
- Herbs & crystals in the mail box
- Burning bay leaves
- Prosperity front door wash (don’t forget the doorknobs!)
- Cinnamon sticks in / on the mailbox
- Burning a green or yellow candle
- A small luck or prosperity ritual/working
- Drinking mint tea
- Sweeping! (Clear out that old stagnant energy!)
- Prosperity herb scented hand / body soap
- Make / feed / refresh money bowl
- Blowing cinnamon in a house would be activating it using the air element - try a different element (burning, burying or putting in water)
Can’t use cinnamon? - Some other plants for prosperity:
- Mint
- Allspice
- Bay leaves
- Black tea
- Catnip
- Cilantro
- Clover
- Ginger
- Moonwort
- Oats
- Oregano
- Parsley
- Peppermint
I hope this takes some pressure off and gives you new ideas!
