Do Magic
Human eyes can detect three primary colors: red, yellow and blue. All the variations we see are made from these base ingredients. Dragonflies can see 30 — 30! — and all the colors they make when combined.
​
Which is to say — there are many, many things we cannot see. Let's believe in all the colors we can't see for a little while. Let's do some magic.

 May I - For Clear VisionEach time you see a mirror: May I see things as they are, may I be seen. This can also be done some for someone else, alive or not - imagine the person: May you see things as they are. May you be seen. |  May I - To Welcome and Be WelcomedEach time you cross a threshold: May I welcome you, may I be welcomed. This can also be done some for someone else, alive or not - imagine the person: May you welcome me, joy, everything. May you be welcome. |  I, PrismIf you have a prism, rest your eyes on the light. If you don’t have a prism close your eyes and imagine light being filtered into colored wavelengths. Now, slowly, become the prism. Breathe in mixed and muddled light - let everything be there: pain and anger and joy and wanting. Breathe out light turned to rainbows. You can start with your own muddled light turned to rainbows and slowly open to other people's muddled light; people you know then people you don't know, and, eventually, everyone. |
 Light a CandleConsider your heart, make note of the holes. Light a candle for each thing you’ve lost (you can light one candle or many at a time). Set a timer for 7 minutes (or 14 or 20 or longer - 7 is good to start). Allow yourself to think about the lost things while you watch the candles. Gently repeat - may I be light (or may there be light, or just light). Do this every day until the candles are burned out. |
