In honor of your own personal triumphs and inner light, gather several tealight candles and light them on your altar. Then light your favorite meditation incense. As the candles burn, meditate on your triumphs of the past year and express your wishes for the coming year. Chant the following mantra to invoke the blessings of Lakshmi: Om shree Mahalakshmi namah! May your inner light illuminate your path! Namaste! ~~ Blake Octavian Blair
