Performing the First of the Month Cinnamon Ritual

  1. The Cinnamon Ritual is all about new beginnings, so it’s best to do it at the start of each month. [1] On the first, set an intention —anything you want to strive toward, become better at, or achieve in the coming days. Write this intention down on a sticky note or bit of paper and place it somewhere you can see it, like at your desk or on your fridge.
    • For example, you might set an intention to spend more time relaxing or to exercise more regularly.
    • Say your intention out loud to put the energy out into the universe. Say something like, “By performing this ritual, I intend to live a healthier and happier life this month.”
    • Some believe the cinnamon ritual is also effective as a new moon ritual for abundance.
  2. While holding about 1 tbsp (8.3 g) of ground cinnamon in your palm, step just outside your home and face inward, like you’re a guest who’s just about to enter. Then, while focusing on your intention, blow the cinnamon from your palm and through the open door like you’re blowing a kiss. Blow until all the cinnamon has left your palm. Visualize prosperity entering your home with the cinnamon. [2]

  3. Leave the cinnamon where it landed for a full day so that the ritual’s energy can settle into your home. You’re not blowing much, so you may not even need to clean it up, but if you feel the urge, sweep it into a dustpan after 24 hours have passed. [3] Then, empty the dustpan somewhere outside, like a garden, so nature can take the cinnamon back.
    • During this first 24 hours, work to manifest your intention. For example, if your intention was for more money, make steps to round up old odds and ends to sell online or at a flea market.

  1. Technically, you can say anything that represents abundance when you perform the Cinnamon Ritual. Many believe that saying a spell out loud helps align their intent with their energy to give a spell more power. [4] If you can’t think of anything to say, try saying one of these before you blow the cinnamon:
    • “When the cinnamon blows, it will bring prosperity. When the cinnamon blows, it will bring abundance.” [5]
    • “As I blow this cinnamon in my home, abundance comes to me.” [6]
    • “This home is a place of abundance and prosperity. [7]

Other Rituals to Perform with Cinnamon

  1. Cinnamon is often used to manifest and attract abundance, so take advantage of this by slipping a stick of cinnamon into your bag or wallet. [8] The cinnamon’s power may help bring in some extra cash from unexpected sources. Plus, it’ll make your purse smell fabulous in the process.
    • If you’re worried about crumbs, place the cinnamon in a small paper or plastic bag before setting it in your purse or wallet.
    • If you don’t have cinnamon sticks, a pinch of powdered cinnamon works, too.
  2. If blowing cinnamon into your home isn’t quite potent enough, scrub the cinnamon into your floors to really infuse them with cinnamon’s natural properties. Next time you mop your kitchen or scrub your bathroom, add 1 tbsp (8.3 g) of powdered cinnamon to your soap solution and use it to clean. [9] The particles may also help scrub away grime and make everything smell sweet and scrumptious!
  3. Adding cinnamon to your divinations may enhance their potency and accuracy. Before doing a tarot reading , dust a pinch of powdered cinnamon across your table or rub it between your hands. Or, light a cinnamon candle to add some fragrance and ambiance to the reading. [10]
    • Ceylon cinnamon , which is sourced from Sri Lanka and India, is more fragrant than other varieties. [11] It may further enhance your divinations.
  4. First, boil 3  c (710 mL) of water on the stove, then add 1 stick of cinnamon, 1 bunch of basil leaves, and 2 US tbsp (30 mL) of honey. Let them simmer in the boiling water for 5 minutes while focusing on your intention—in this case, improvement in your relationships. Let the water cool for 30 minutes, then pour it into the tub next time you take a spiritual bath.
    • This ritual is said to help protect against bad spiritual and social energies, as well as strengthen your current romantic and platonic relationships.
  5. Taking cinnamon into your body may be the most powerful way to absorb its power and vibrate at its frequency. It’s also the best way to reap its many health benefits, like lowering cholesterol or reducing blood sugar levels. [12] Make cinnamon tea and enjoy it at breakfast to start your day with abundant energies. Or, make cinnamon rolls for a sweet, after-dinner treat.
  6. Cinnamon has verified anti-anxiety properties that may help you calm down after a stressful day. [13] Spritz some cinnamon essential oil in rooms where you might need some added relaxation, like your home office or bedroom. Or make potpourri and include some cinnamon sticks or powder, then set it in your bathroom or by your bedside to breathe in the healing energy of cinnamon throughout your day.
