Day 30: And So It Is — The Power of Unwavering Belief
My closing ritual is not elaborate. There are no extra steps, no second-guessing, no bargaining with the universe. My closing ritual is an unequivocal belief that what I asked for is already happening.
Once I’ve asked, once I’ve whispered the petition, once the spell has been cast or the intention spoken, I let it go with certainty. Not hope. Not wishing. Certainty.
And that belief didn’t come from nowhere. It was forged early.
Let me tell you a story.
I was in sixth grade, attending a magnet school focused on science and math. My partner and I were competing in the science fair. Our project was humble. No fancy materials. No expensive display. Just a cardboard board with neatly glued pictures and handwritten notes about our chosen subject: the American Black Bear.
That was it.
But what we lacked in presentation, I more than made up for in knowledge.
I had spent hours in the library reading everything I could get my hands on about Black Bears. Their habitats. Their behaviors. Their diets. Their role in the ecosystem. I was overflowing with information, bursting at the seams with facts, waiting for someone to ask me a question so I could share what I had learned.
And I did.
I was the one who spoke to every judge that came by. Mind you, English was my second language, and back then it was still rusty. I had only recently started learning it. But none of that mattered to me. Not the accent. Not the imperfect grammar. Not the fear of being misunderstood. I communicated anyway. Enthusiastically. Passionately. Confidently.
I knew my subject.
When the fair ended, we left our project behind and started walking down the hallway back to class. My partner broke the silence and said, “I don’t think we’re going to win.”
I remember stopping and looking at her.
She was wrong. I knew she was wrong.
“Nope,” I said. “We got this in the bag. We’re going to win.”
She stared at me like I had lost my mind, shook her head, and kept walking. She thought I was crazy. I thought she was crazy.
A few hours later, we were sitting in class when the intercom crackled to life. They were announcing the science fair winners. First place for Natural Sciences.
The American Black Bear study.
Ours.
I turned around slowly, looked at her, and said, “I told you.”
She laughed as we got up to head to the auditorium to receive our ribbons. And in that moment, something fundamental locked into place inside me.
I am capable of amazing things.
Great things happen to me.
And I don’t doubt it.
That belief has followed me my entire life.
It doesn’t mean I don’t work hard. It doesn’t mean I don’t struggle. It doesn’t mean I haven’t faced obstacles, rejection, or heartbreak. But underneath all of that, there has always been a knowing. A quiet, unshakeable confidence that when I commit fully, when I speak with conviction, when I show up prepared and passionate, things move in my favor.
That belief is the foundation of my closing ritual.
After a spell.
After a prayer.
After a whispered intention.
I don’t revisit it with anxiety. I don’t keep checking to see if it’s “working.” I don’t ask again and again from a place of fear. I close the ritual knowing the universe, God, Goddess, the Mother — whatever name resonates — has heard me.
And it’s already in motion.
This is not arrogance. It’s trust.
Trust in my preparation.
Trust in my intuition.
Trust in the unseen forces that move when we speak with clarity and confidence.
Doubt weakens energy. Certainty anchors it.
“And so it is” is not a phrase I say lightly. It’s a declaration. It’s the moment I step out of grasping and into receiving. It’s the moment I align myself with outcomes instead of obstacles.
That sixth-grade girl didn’t need proof to believe she would win. She already knew. And every time I close a ritual now, I tap back into her energy. The girl who didn’t let language barriers stop her. The girl who trusted her knowledge. The girl who spoke anyway.
My closing ritual is simple because belief is powerful on its own.
Once I ask, I release.
Once I release, I trust.
Once I trust, I move forward as if it’s already done.
And so it is.
