011 Rituals for Receiving Overflow and Miracles in Business and Life

Catarina Andrade Season 1 Episode 11

Hi, it’s Catarina, and welcome back to The Miracle Zone Podcast! Today, I’m sharing one of my favorite rituals for receiving, and it’s all about working with rose medicine. If you’re watching on YouTube, you’ll see me holding up some rose petals, but don’t worry if you’re just listening – I’ll walk you through everything.

Roses are always present in my space, and they hold such a high frequency. In this episode, I’ll guide you through a simple yet powerful ritual that I use to honor life, cultivate gratitude, and connect with the sacred. It’s not about asking or manifesting – it’s about offering and being in a state of receivership.

I’ll also share how this ritual ties into the lineage of the rose, Mother Mary, and the Magdalene traditions. Plus, I’ll give you a sneak peek into my upcoming live event, Rituals for Receiving, where I’ll be joined by other mentors to guide you through transformative practices.

What you’ll learn in this episode:
✨ How to work with rose petals to create a sacred offering
✨ The importance of gratitude and presence in rituals
✨ Why offering without asking can shift your energy into abundance
✨ How this practice connects to ancient lineages and spiritual traditions

If this resonates with you, I invite you to join me for Rituals for Receiving, a free live event happening next week! Together, we’ll create a magnetic field of receiving with powerful rituals guided by myself and other mentors. Don’t worry if you can’t join live – there will be recordings available.

🌟 Resources and Links:

  • 🌟 The Miracle Frequency Immersion: Join me for this transformative week-long journey happening at the end of May! Together, we’ll anchor into the miracle frequency and open ourselves to receive miracles with ease. Check it out here.

Thank you for being here and for blessing this space with your presence. You are a miracle in motion, and I can’t wait to hear how this ritual transforms your connection to abundance.

With love,
Catarina

[00:00:00] Catarina Andrade: Welcome to the Miracle Zone Podcast. And today I'm excited to share with you one of my rituals for receiving overflow in my business and in my life. And I'm actually holding up some rose petals here in case you're not watching on YouTube and you're just listening. And it's something that maybe if you are typically just listening on the podcast you haven't seen, but I always have roses present here when I'm recording the podcast because I always have roses present in the home, [00:00:30] and this is because I work with rose medicine when I'm setting up alters and just I love having them in the space.

[00:00:39] Catarina Andrade: So before I jump into that, I just wanted to let you know that next week I'm actually doing something really exciting and I'm hosting an event. It's a live event that you can join online. And it's called rituals for receiving. And what I did is I invited other mentors, other receiving mentors to come and share their rituals with [00:01:00] you.

[00:01:00] Catarina Andrade: And so we're all going to come together and share the rituals and actually do them together and amplify them in this field by doing them together. So I will share the link for you, for rituals for receiving, and make sure you check that out and join me. All right? So it's gonna be really powerful to do them together if you can't join us live, there will be recordings and if you are watching this later, then you can just [00:01:30] check the links and if the link is there, you can still access the recordings and if not, then you can always reach out to support@catrinaandrade.com and we'll be in touch with you about that. So I wanted to take a moment now to share one of my rituals with you, just to give you a little bit of a taste and because it's something that I really do.

[00:01:51] Catarina Andrade: Almost every week. And something that I really noticed that I missed a lot when I didn't do it last [00:02:00] month. So if you've been listening to the podcast, you know, I was on crutches last month and I wasn't able to move very easily, and because of that, I wasn't able to do this. And I really realized how important this ritual is in my life because I've been doing it for so long.

[00:02:15] Catarina Andrade: The other thing I just want to mention is I am working with Roses for this because as I said, I do work with Rose Medicine and I also work with Roses in the Miracle Frequency Immersion, which I'll be offering later this month. And I'll share the [00:02:30] links as well. Once the doors for that is open and I work with Roses because roses are one of the highest frequency flowers, which is really beautiful and powerful to work with in the home, in the energy and energetics of the home. And I'm not going to go too into that now because I really want to focus on the ritual itself. Okay. But I'm working with roses. But you could do this with any flower.

[00:02:56] Catarina Andrade: So basically when the roses are coming to the end of [00:03:00] their bloom, and I'm gonna do it here. If you are watching, I will take the rose and grab the petals from the rose. Let's go with this one here.

[00:03:17] Catarina Andrade: And you can take them all off at the same time by grabbing the head and just kind of twisting. Or you can take them off petal by petal. I only realized that recently by the way, that you could just boop, pop them all off like [00:03:30] this, and then you can add your petals to wherever you're going to be. Storing them, if you will.

[00:03:40] Catarina Andrade: Just a container. I don't have anything particularly special, but I do use the same one every time. And. As I do this, I'm, I'm giving Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you to this flower, this beautiful being, and for what it has brought to my life, to my home, to my space while [00:04:00] it's been with me, and I'm also noticing what's left of the flower.

[00:04:05] Catarina Andrade: Besides the petals as well, just presencing it. This part that gets forgotten, you can see pollen, the pistol, this is the feminine core of the flower, right? So just again, presencing that and really taking a moment to connect with the beauty of each rose. You know, it's not just like a grabbing.

[00:04:26] Catarina Andrade: Grabbing and de-petaling, right? [00:04:30] So bringing awareness to this plants, both to the petals, to the floral, the colorful parts, and also to these parts that usually don't get just that much attention. And just thank you, thank you, thank you. Thank you for blessing the space with your beauty. Thank you for blessing the space with your fragrance, your essence, your frequency.

[00:04:51] Catarina Andrade: And I just, you know, let that ripple through my body, that gratitude there and, you know, I can feel it, I can smell it. Mm, I'm smelling the [00:05:00] petals. And then I will take these out and make offerings to the waters. So you can make offerings to the lands if you want, if there's no water near you. But I live close by to the ocean, and I was really intuitively guided to go and make offerings to the ocean.

[00:05:20] Catarina Andrade: And it wasn't really a ritual that I concocted in advance. There was just this beautiful rock pool that I just always liked to go to and meditate at. And I just built a [00:05:30]relationship with this particular. Place and this connection. And one time I, I was at home with roses and it just came to me, why don't I make Rose offerings here?

[00:05:42] Catarina Andrade: And so there's this spot, this beautiful rock pool that I've been going to for almost, I would say at least four years now on the coast in Portugal. And just one day I had this idea, why don't I take some of these rose petals that I have around the home and make [00:06:00] offerings to the waters.

[00:06:01] Catarina Andrade: And so again, you can do this with land, you can work with other flowers as well. Again, I prefer to work with rose medicine just because it's what I am infused in. It's very connected the lineage of the Rose to Mother, Mary, the Magdalenes, and many, many other priestessing lineages dating far back.

[00:06:22] Catarina Andrade: And so that's why I choose to work with the Rose, and it's just the one that called me and felt the [00:06:30] most true, like I really wanted to make offerings of this. You can also make offerings of honey sugar milk. Corn. Different cultures do different things, different traditions do different things. It's really about feeling what feels true to me and what feels true to my lineage.

[00:06:51] Catarina Andrade: To my heart, and this is really what, you know, what felt true for me and my ancestry and for my heart. And it's also [00:07:00] convenient and easy to do because I always have roses around. And so I don't have to make an extra effort when I want to do this ritual. It's just, it's ever present in my space. So I will prepare the petals I'll.

[00:07:15] Catarina Andrade: Place them with gratitude and attention into whatever container I'm taking, and I will take them down to this rock pool. Sometimes I have to hold them down and cover them because the wind is a bit wild and the petals are starting to flow everywhere. [00:07:30] Sometimes I feel called to take by drum with me. Or sometimes I'll take something to write with and because sometimes light codes are coming through and I want to write them or sing them to the waters, it can look a little different every time.

[00:07:45] Catarina Andrade: But the constant is taking the rose petals down to the rock pool. Sometimes on the way there's this beautiful little chapel, an our lady chapel, and I'll pop by if I feel called. I don't do it every time, but I'll [00:08:00] just, you pay a visit there as well with the rose petals and then head over to the rock pool.

[00:08:08] Catarina Andrade: And then when I arrive at the rock pool, I'll just reflect again. Feeling gratitude for the roses, but also extend that gratitude out to all of the land, to the waters. Taking in the scenery, taking in the breeze, taking in the sense of the salt water, noticing what the weather is like on that particular [00:08:30] day.

[00:08:30] Catarina Andrade: What is the tide like? What are the waves like? What am I noticing? And just really using my senses to get in a really, really present state. And that's really it. It's not a very fancy ritual. It's quite basic. It's more about the presence that I'm bringing to the ritual, the state of awareness, the state of gratitude.

[00:08:56] Catarina Andrade: And then when I'm ready and feel called to, I will [00:09:00] just take the petals and I will start sprinkling them onto the waters. Just again, thank you, thank you, thank you. And this is the gratitude. It feels like a deep bow. You know? It's like a bow and bow and sprinkle. Bow and sprinkle. Just like dump them all at once.

[00:09:15] Catarina Andrade: I don't throw them. Sometimes I need to, if it's very windy and I will just reflect and offer them to the water. Sometimes I'll sing as I do that. It really depends. But the undercurrent is [00:09:30] really this gratitude. And sometimes it's really easy to feel grateful because of how life is in that moment. And sometimes I'm going through a challenging time and it takes everything within me to maintain this state of gratitude.

[00:09:47] Catarina Andrade: Keep coming back to this gratitude, keep coming back to this gratitude. And so the rose petals are really an anchor for that. It's like a coming back and releasing more gratitude, more [00:10:00] gratitude.

[00:10:13] Catarina Andrade: I don't usually go asking to receive things, so I don't really see this as a manifestation ritual. It's just something that I felt called to do intuitively to go and make offerings to the waters and. It's something that a lot of different cultures, spiritual [00:10:30] traditions, religions, have as part as what's done to honor the spirits, the divine, the ancestors, the keepers of the land.

[00:10:42] Catarina Andrade: So. It doesn't necessarily need to be thought of as a receiving ritual or as a manifestation ritual, right? But it's an offering in Bali, for example. It's something that you see being done every single day. So for me it's just an [00:11:00] offering. It has a very , clean energy more than an asking for something.

[00:11:04] Catarina Andrade: And I really want to emphasize that because. I think that's what makes this ritual for receiving really, really unique is that it's not a conditional thing. It's not I'm doing this thing to get that thing, I'm doing this thing to get that thing. I'm giving this thing to receive that thing, right? It's just cultivating this practice of honoring life.

[00:11:29] Catarina Andrade: [00:11:30] Of honoring the sacred of connecting to the miracles and the abundance that are everywhere, and that's already here and that is already of the earth and has been here, and of those that came before that in inherent in innate abundance, that is everywhere. And of the lands, right? We take that for granted.

[00:11:53] Catarina Andrade: There is earth and lands and water. That alone is a miracle. And so I think what we want [00:12:00] to avoid when we're trying to create this beautiful energy of receiving both for ourselves and our businesses and our lives, is to not make it a formula. Again, I give this, I get that, I do this, I get that. I visualize this, I get that right?

[00:12:17] Catarina Andrade: I. But rather live in this state of honoring and gratitude in general so that we're living in a state of receivership in general, and an openness and an allowing [00:12:30] in general. Right. And I think that's one of the things that we miss out on a lot with manifestation rituals because it's more like calculated or trying to control things.

[00:12:43] Catarina Andrade: I want this, I'm gonna do that to bring this about. It's like treating the universe like Santa Claus or something. And that's quite different than just, I'm so abundant and I'm. So grateful that [00:13:00] I'm just gonna offer it. I'm just gonna offer it. And of course the energy is gonna come back to me, of course, because there's just an overflow of energy.

[00:13:10] Catarina Andrade: So you can do this kind of ritual without a request. You can also do it obviously, with a request. So it's very common if you want to do a retreat somewhere that you go and make offerings with the land, you connect with the land, you get permissions with the land. There have been times where I'm opening up space [00:13:30] in a program or a mastermind and I will go and make offerings.

[00:13:34] Catarina Andrade: It's not really, again, like a, you know, please, please, please send me clients, but more of. This isn't gratitude for this creation and for those that I already know are coming, right? But on the whole, my invitation for you is to really sit with what it would look like to just go and offer for the sake of offering, without asking for anything, without requesting anything, but just being in [00:14:00] this state of overflow, overflow of abundance, overflow of gratitude.

[00:14:06] Catarina Andrade: I always talk about being in the miracle zone, and that's what we do here on the Miracle Zone Podcast. And I also talk about you being a miracle in motion, right? And you are a miracle magnet. So if you really own that, if you really embody that, that I'm a miracle in motion, I'm a miracle, I'm a miracle magnet.

[00:14:25] Catarina Andrade: Everywhere you walk is blessed, right? And so just like [00:14:30] that, you can go to the waters and you bless the waters, or you go to the land, you walk in your yard and you're blessing the land, right? Because you are that blessing, you are that miracle. And so you're making an offering just because you are an offering.

[00:14:45] Catarina Andrade: It's just an extension of your energy. It's an extension of your presence is an extension of who you are. It's like, oh, I'm by the waters. I'm blessing the waters. Huh, might as well throw some beautiful rose [00:15:00] petals here. bless bless, right? So it's really about embodying that energy of overflow, of so much gratitude, so much overflow, because then it will just pour out of you naturally as an extension of the blessing that is you and your presence, the miracle that is you and is your presence.

[00:15:19] Catarina Andrade: And then it's reflected back to you through receivership as well. But that's not why we do it, and that's not the intention of [00:15:30] it. So it's a bit of a counterintuitive receiving ritual, and that's also why it's one of my favorite ones. So that's my invitation for you, is to do this. Now, this is a beautiful time.

[00:15:42] Catarina Andrade: If you are watching this as it's being released. It's tourist season. It's a beautiful time to do ritual with the earth and with flowers and beauty and grace. Also, Venus has just gone into Aries, and so it's a beautiful time to do this, with passion, your, your love and gratitude [00:16:00] exploding out of you fiery even.

[00:16:03] Catarina Andrade: So it's a counterintuitive virtual, but it's really powerful, especially now that you can obviously do it anytime. And I usually do it every week because the flowers, the flowers call for me. So that's my invitation to you. Again, you can work with roses or other flowers, whatever calls to you. Remember to really connect with them first.

[00:16:25] Catarina Andrade: Remember to allow yourself to really, you can touch them, you can smell [00:16:30] them. Work with the senses and get in that feeling in your body and see how that goes for you I also want to invite you again to join me for rituals for receiving. It is free for now. You can check it out in the links and you join me and other receiving mentors.

[00:16:49] Catarina Andrade: For other rituals like this, it's all going to be different receiving rituals, some of them more around wealth embodiment some [00:17:00] of them more around getting, again in that space of receivership and alignment. It's going to be very, very powerful. I'm so excited for these guest mentors that are going to be joining us.

[00:17:13] Catarina Andrade: I know all of them very well. Some of them have been my mentors, some of them have been, or are my clients. Some of them, or all of them actually are dear friends. And we're going to create a really, really powerful, powerful space and magnetic field [00:17:30] for receiving for everybody who's present and who watches the recordings.

[00:17:34] Catarina Andrade: So if you can't join us live, you can sign up in the links and get the recordings. So be sure to check that out, and I will see you there.
