Steps
- Begin by setting your space. Light the red candle and the dragon's blood incense. Let the smoke envelop you, creating a protective and inspiring atmosphere.

- On the piece of red paper, write down one action you wish to take but have been hesitating. Be clear and specific.
- Place the paper under the candle and say aloud, "Mars, ignite my spirit. Grant me the courage to take this action." Visualize yourself succeeding in this endeavor.

Aftercare

Keep the piece of red paper in a place where you can see it daily as a reminder of your commitment to courageous action. Revisit this ritual whenever you need a boost of motivation or courage.
Cautions
When working with fire, always ensure safety. Do not leave the candle unattended. Ensure that the incense is in a well-ventilated area to avoid overwhelming smoke. If you have sensitive skin, be cautious when using essential oils or incense. If you feel overwhelmed by the energy, take a moment to ground yourself by touching the earth or holding a grounding stone like hematite.
