What's your morning ritual?
I used to have one, currently working on rebuilding mine.

* check the studio for drying art projects * Light incense * Dust all surfaces * Start Laundry * Write * Publish a blog post * Read the News * Work on a contract * Start a new project * Read email, forum posts * Shower/Dress * Read a book * Hoop/Work Out * Dust off Shrines, light candle, throw an offering on the plate * Make the bed after the boyfriend rolls out of it about noon
That's about the size of it each morning.

Great topic! Will exalt you both.
I just submitted an article for CHAOSPHERE MAGAZINE inspired by these two posts. Promised Frater Nicht that I'd contribute something for his next issue. So... thanks, guys! If, for whatever reason, he decides not to use my article, it'll go in the Green Trapezoid.

I'm doing this 4 or 5 time a week, usually in the morning at 7:50 wile going to work :
cocthulhu.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=biblical&thread=5155&page=1
quote :
- Moment of preparation. I decide to perform my mass 20 minutes before and prepare myself. Not that long because I can do something, usually I walk to my job or do something else, but I'm thinking to the mass. - Standing in a place I feel inspiring, or sitting with Kort’thalis on the table in front of me. - "I am here ! Me ! I am Yrreiht, I am a priest of the Cult of Cthulhu, I am a priest of R'lyeh ! Cthulhu ! I am me, here and now, I feel my body and the world around, I have my highest emotions an my intellect. (be aware !) Ia Ia Cthulhu fhtagn !" (Great results with this sentence... it became for me or has it always been in itself a kind of magical formula?) (When not obtained by artificial means, Gnosis is a marvelous moment... a moment of Awakening, when many things are possible... but it is easy to be fooled. I have a mean to verify my gnosis. More on that later on another post) - I visualize the Void. I imagine and visualize the Darkness in superposition of what I see. Or maybe I do see it. -"Energy ! I send energy in the Void, making waves !" With a breath, or with a large gesture, I'm sending some energy in the Void.
The End ! But to describe what I feel when the Void is sending me back his energy 3 seconds later, I will quote Master Satanis : "and at long last jubilantly ululate a viridescent exaltation to the most high!"
Belief is reality

@cs: thanks.

@yrreight: I think you're onto something with the 'mass' and I'm going to experiment with it. If you have written anything else about it, I'm interested.

Cool. I completely forgot about Chaosphere, I usually contribute. Ever since I deleted myself off Facebook, people seem to 'forget' how to contact me. Sheesh.

FB is the lazy way to stay connected. Works for me.

Nothing too exciting. It mostly revolves around getting ready for work and taking care of our 19 month old. When the opportunity arises, I try to read or write or exercise.
Awake!

I can't say I have any morning ritual. It's something I should think about doing. Light my candles, burn incense, meditate, etc. I think it would add something to accent the day.
AWAKE

It's not a bad way to start the day. When I was caught up in the grind of getting up super early to get ready for work, I'd light incense while applying make up and getting dressed. That in itself, became a morning ritual. It was more pleasant than rushing around the house like a nutter to get out the door in time.
I'd get to bed at a reasonable hour so that getting up early wasn't a task. Often times, I'd wake up before the morning alarm. I'd prefer that to being ripped from sleep by an annoying sound. I still get up pretty early on my own.

My morning ritual is to :
1) Feed my dog
2) feed myself
3) an hour after that talk my dog for a walk.
