You're so welcome, I'm honoured to have been able to work on this for you. ❤

The values list - is a part of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) that is used in counseling/psychotherapy. May be where you've read this, Hayes is a prominent author for ACT :)

I did a self dedication many years ago and still remember it. it was in winter along the coast in the north east. it was so cold that waves broke over the rock before me-liminal space- and as they fell back they left the layer of ice behind them.

Ivy, thank you so much for sharing this with all of us! I'm a 50+ widowed mom of two grown kids, retired and on disability. I have long struggled to define this "new me" after all of life's changes. I actually just searched my pinterest boards for core values, and found I already had a few there. I've added a few more and intend to go through it all soon. You are such an inspiration! So glad I found you and subscribed a couple of years ago! Caren in Colorado

I love the way you just sit down and talk about your practice with us. And not just “how to do magick” but what you actually do, which SHOULD be so much different for every witch, and I love that you embrace this!!! I love your channel 🌻🍄🖤

After I resigned from the group I was involved with for almost two years, I decided to formally dedicate myself to Babalon and the Thelemic path. I created the dedication ritual myself and performed it. I was a good first step to what would be my solitary journey in Thelema. I haven't formally joined another group since and have instead sought knowledge through divination when I feel like I'm at a crossroads.

This is so awesome! I am not a ceremonial person at all, and find my beliefs change over the course of 5 years or so over and over, but I really like this idea of dedicating to "my best self". So many great ideas here, thank you so much, Ivy! ❤

Thank you for sharing this personal aspect of your magical practice. This is definitely an uncommon topic of conversation, thank you for this ❤

Thank you for sharing this! ✨💜✨ Very inspiring!

Thank you, beautiful way of ending aries eclipse

I loved that you shared this. Dedications can be so powerful.

Thank you, Ivy - I love hearing what you’re actually doing in your practice! I’m very inspired to devise a dedication ceremony now. ❤

That statue is DIVINE

Thank you so much for this video Ivy, YES...this is a wonderful idea. I like the concept of reconnecting my lower self to my higher self. I feel this will help with my over all energy I have been feeling lately with my mundane life, as well. So, again thank you for the reminder of rededication ❤

Yess I'm so haopy you posted this. I think it sounds like a wonderful and beautiful way of refocusing yourself so that your conscious and subconscious selves are in alignment. I want to try it for myself!

I love this idea. I'm definitely going to create a ceremony for myself😊

Great video Ivy, love all that you shared about you dedication cermony. I have been thinking of doing one myself. But I was deciding whether to do it to dedicate myself to a new goddess or to my spiritual path. I did change my You Tube name, but you have me down with my old one spelled wrong, I was "TJ the Eclectic Healing Witch" and you have me as the TJ the "Electric" Healing WItch, lol. which is funny, lol. Sounds like I am a shocking healing witch.

The timing of this is so perfect for me in regards to my own path, thank you so much ♥️ So many great ideas 💡 Absolutely stunning statue 😍

Love this!! ❤❤❤

I absolutely love this idea 💜💜

I definitely need to try this, especially the core values exercise!🔥 Thank you for sharing links, these are so incredibly gorgeous!💖✨💚

Ohh this is such a beautiful way to celebrate my 50th birthday coming up!! I'm thinking of doing it with my two witchy sisters who are also turning 50. We all share a birthday month!! I've been wanting to do a self love ceremony for myself but this kicks it up a few notches!! Thank you for sharing, it's a great idea!! Happy Belated Birthday to you sister! Blessed Be 🙌🏽🙌🏽

Happy Belated Solar Return Ivy! I loved this❤ 💪😽

Ivy this sounds great! you have really become one of my absolute favorite channels here on YT. You mentioned a couple times about your coven, how it’s a democratic system. If you felt comfortable sharing, I would love to hear more about it. How you guys found each other, how you organize, why you chose to join this type of coven as opposed to traditional ones or experiences with other types of covens. I think lots of people are looking for something similar and would be also interested in hearing about it 🤍

I love this!!!

Loved this Ivy, and thank you for sharing. I agree totally. My practice became much stronger after my dedication to Holda. I recorded and shared a little about it afterward. I also saw Lennan Smiths video about her dedication or "marriage" to the craft. My experience was powerful and magical.

This was a beautiful reminder to dedicate once in a while, havent done one of these in a few years, ty❤

I only recently discovered you, and thankfully perfectly timed. Your energy and the joyful wisdom you present is so refreshing. ❤ Happy birthday as well!🎉

Always intelligent, interesting content on your channel. Thank you so much. I love your beautiful statue 🌼

Thank you for teaching me something new today Ivy! Really good stuff. I'm going to take inspiration from this! 🤘🍎🐍

I love Emeralda too! ❤ THis is so cool!

Oh my stars 🌟 🤩 What a statue 👏🏼 🎉❤ Loved the video! So inspiring. I love that you always give good vibes & give such inspirational content Ivy. ✨️

I really enjoyed your thought process. I have been following earth magic for many (many) years. I recently began honing in my beliefs and core values, I realized I am an occultist/along side of a solitary hedge witch. Solitary because there isn't a lot of people like me. I love the idea of the white dress as a symbol of dedication. I am emphatic about our magical/more aware selves being set aside from the mundane/ unenlightened world. It's a bit ironic when you meet an "Nature Magic Witch" of some sort and they are drinking a coke and eating something equally as poisonous. Part of knowing is doing. I do enjoy your tea inspired sessions. I don't feel quite so alone in this world. Blessings. -Kirsten

I recently did a self-transformation ritual (that I talk about in my monthly wrap-up video) to help me quit a vice among other things, and while it wasn't exactly like yours, the vibes were similar. It seems it's just that time! Thank you so much for sharing, Ivy.

Amazing video!! And that statue is gorgeous!! And the timing too on my point too. I am looking into dedication stuff and organizing my thoughts so love this video even more ❤❤

I really DO LOVE THIS IDEA! It makes so much sense to ME ❤ Thanks Ivy! I absolutely adore UR statue!! I MEAN she has a matching cape and crown with so MANY beautiful lil stone's on her ❤ 💯 Did THIS take U awhile to prepare for? I was thinking cord cutting, but THIS FEELS more like it, LITERALLY LEVEL UP! 😂😂 I USE THAT phrase!! Lol But it FEELS like THIS is MORE what I'm looking for, I've already BURNED DWN what was needed and ties have been severed, THIS WLD make a beautiful NXT step, or level up ❤💯👑 DEFINITELY Love the entire ceremony idea !! Much love frm the Gulf Coast 💜🌴💜

What do you recommend for someone that has a hard time writing things down like I know a lot of people like to keep a grimoire or a journal or something like that but I never have time to really write things down but I listen and I read so much and I have books and everything but Just find it really hard for me to take time to write things down. I have OCPD and I’m constantly moving around and cleaning and things like that and I just find it really hard for me to take the time to sit down to write down everything that I know

❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍😘

If you don't have a partner to work with, I'd suggest recording yourself reading the list.

02:45 Feeling the most healthy when the lower and higher selves are in union = greatest self… I have to put that one into motion… 🫶🏻! 05:55 The veiled woman candle is sooooo beautiful as the statue in 07:47! ❤
