Ritual Salt Mixture - Aether
Semiphoras' ritual salt mixes are made using traditional methods from high-quality raw materials such as Dead Sea salt, crystals, herbs, flowers, gold and silver leaf. Carefully selected and sanctified ingredients rich in symbolic meaning are mixed into a ready-made ritual salt mixture. Salt mixtures are especially intended for ritual practices where purification, protection and increasing strength are key elements. We recommend using salt mixtures during the Purifico phase in purification rituals and also as part of altar rituals to represent purity and the earth element.
In ancient Greek mythology, Aether was the primordial god (protogenos) of light, space and the brightness of the sky. In Hesiod's Birth of the Gods, Aether is the son of Erebus and Nycs and the brother of Hemera. His mother Nyks (personification of night) pulls the dark mist from Erebos across the sky, bringing night below him, while his sister Hemera (day) pulls away the mist to reveal the radiant glow of Aether, bringing day. In Greek mythology, the ether was imagined to be pure essence, the upper air in which the gods lived and breathed. It was thus distinguished from the ordinary air breathed by mortals.
Symbol meaning
Salt has been used in rituals for millennia and has always had a strong symbolic meaning in different faith traditions. Its typical symbolic meanings are related to purification, protection, energy balancing, sanctification and even exorcism. Salt carries the power of the earth element with it and it also symbolizes feminine energy. It has been used in spells and magic, funerals, mummification and amulets. Salt has been strongly associated with purity, sanctity and spiritual protection, and was believed to help maintain a connection with the Divine realm as well as ensure people's transition from life to the afterlife.
- Dead Sea salt has versatile symbolism and has taken on special meaning in many cultures and belief systems. Dead Sea salt comes from one of the deepest and saltiest waters in the world. Thus, it symbolizes depth, mysticism and access to hidden knowledge and wisdom. It is particularly known for its cleansing and nurturing mineral content and thus reflects a purifying effect that helps release past burdens and create a new beginning. Dead Sea salt is historically known for its protective and healing properties. Symbolically, it can represent protection from evil energy and a sense of strength to overcome difficulties.
- Citrine : Citrine is considered a powerful cleanser and revitaliser. Because of its color, it is thought to bring with it the power of the sun, to warm, give energy and awaken creativity. Citrine energizes all levels of life. It is thought to cleanse the body's energy centers, or chakras, and to activate the crown chakra in particular, opening intuition. Citrine promotes inner peace, making room for inner wisdom. When the tip of the citrine crystal points downward, it is said to bring spiritual elevation into the physical world.
- Rock crystal : rock crystal is considered the most powerful healing and energetic enhancer. Rock crystal acts as a deep soul cleanser, connecting the physical dimension with the spirit. A master healer to treat any condition.
- White flowers : symbolize purity, beauty and holiness.
- Silver leaf : traditionally, silver has been considered a symbol of purity and purification. Silver is associated with the goddess, the feminine aspect and the moon and is thought to increase spiritual abilities. The ancient Egyptians believed that the bones of the god Ra were silver and therefore highly valued it. The Incas, on the other hand, thought silver was a divine 'material', and associated silver with the luster of the moon, calling it the moon's tears. In alchemy, the symbol of silver is the crescent moon. In China, the moon is called a 'silver candle' and the Milky Way is called a 'silver river'. Silver has also been considered a symbol of magic and mysticism. It has been involved in many occult practices and rituals.
Ritual use
Ritual salt is designed to be used to cleanse yourself from something that you feel is limiting, a chain and hindering your own growth and aspirations. It is recommended to be used especially in times when it is time to leave the old behind, and when you want to move forward in life. If you want to strengthen the symbolic effectiveness of the purification ritual, you can do it at the time of the new moon or the waning moon. The waning moon symbolizes e.g. letting go of the unnecessary and Uusikuu, on the other hand, cleansing.
Salt can be used in many ways in rituals. Listen to your own intuition about what feels right or suitable for you. Here are a couple of examples:
Ritual 1:
- Preparation: Before starting the ritual, choose a calm and undisturbed space. You can also light a candle or incense to create an atmosphere conducive to the ritual.
- Awareness: Take the crystal stones on top of the salt in the left palm and pour the salt mixture into the right palm. Focus for a moment on the symbolic energy of salt and stones. Close your eyes and breathe calmly and deeply for as long as you want, focusing on the sacred and powerful vibration of the salt and what you are leaving behind.
- Cleansing: when you are ready you can use salt to symbolically clean objects, space or yourself of negative energies. Visualize the salt absorbing the things you want to leave behind.
- Leaving the old behind: at the end of the ritual, throw/sweep/rinse the used salt away and feel how the thing left behind is washed away with the salt. Feel relieved.
- Thank you: After the ritual is completed, thank you for the help you received. You can say thank you out loud or in your mind.
Ritual 2: a ritual performed in natural water
- Preparation: Before starting the ritual, choose a quiet and undisturbed place. You can also light a candle or incense to create an atmosphere conducive to the ritual.
- Awareness: Take the crystal stones on top of the salt in the left palm and pour the salt mixture into the right palm. Focus for a moment on the symbolic energy of salt and stones. Close your eyes and breathe calmly and deeply for as long as you want, focusing on the sacred and powerful vibration of the salt and what you are leaving behind.
- Cleaning: when you're ready, walk into the water to the depth you want. Wash yourself symbolically with salt and at the same time visualize how the salt absorbs the things you want to leave behind. Immerse yourself in the water, allowing the natural water to completely wash away what is left behind. Get out of the water and feel relaxed and renewed.
- Thank you: After the ritual is completed, thank you for the help you received. You can say thank you out loud or in your mind.
Other uses
- Choose a small amount of ritual salt and place it in the ritual area or in a small container on the altar.
- You can also form a circle of salt around a person or a symbolic object, sprinkle salt around the room or place salt on windowsills or near doors, or create rings of salt that create a symbolic barrier to negative forces. (note: make sure that the salt does not damage surfaces or materials)
