Opening Reflection
Some gaps reveal themselves only in the quiet, when the room settles and the memory of what was promised no longer tries to protect you. The distance between what someone said and what they chose unfolds like a thin crack in glass, catching the smallest light. You see it now without flinching. This reflection is not for blame or for rewriting the past. It is simply to acknowledge the fracture you felt before you named it. Let this space hold the truth of that distance and the steadiness that follows.
Invocation
Let the gap between word and deed return its clarity without distortion.
Method
Sit before a small mirror with a single candle lit beside it. Keep the flame steady and your breath slow. Hold no intention to shape another's path; this work belongs to you alone. Look into the mirror and recall one moment where words were offered but actions withdrew. Do not chase the memory—let it drift forward on its own. When it arrives, breathe once and name only the feeling it left in you. On your next breath, allow the mirror to reflect the space between what was said and what was done. Imagine that space clearing, like dust lifting from a quiet surface. Place your hand lightly on the table, grounding the sensation. Whisper that the energy of mismatched intentions returns to its rightful origin, without your guidance or interference. Close your eyes briefly, letting the candle's warmth soften any lingering tension. When you open them again, acknowledge the boundary forming around your honesty. Extinguish the candle gently so the air settles without rush.
Closure & Aftercare
Let the mirror rest now, turned face-down so the moment can settle. The truth you recognized has already traveled back to where it belongs, without demand from you. You are stepping out of the field of their contradictions, returning to the steadiness of your own breath. Let this be enough. No further tending is needed tonight. Rest your hands in your lap, soften your shoulders, and allow the quiet to reclaim the room. The work is complete, and you are free to release it.
Safety Notes
Use slow breathing, avoid naming anyone, and stop the ritual if emotions feel overwhelming.
