What you do with the remains of your ritual (wax, photos, ashes, etc.) is just as important as the ritual itself! The ritual does not end when the candles and the incense extinguish. The ritual is only completed when you return the remnants back to the Earth. The Earth and the cycles of nature propel your ritual to its full completion.
