Ritual

"The modern habit of doing ceremonial things unceremoniously is no proof of humility; rather it proves the offender's inability to forget himself in the rite, and his readiness to spoil for everyone else the proper pleasure of ritual."~~C.S. Lewis





So, how important is ritual in your relationship?  We have our own set of rituals that we follow in our daily life and another, more ceremonial set reserved for the dungeon.  Today i want to talk more about our dungeon rituals.


First, let me explain that when i receive a text from Sir it will tell me only one thing, the time that i am expected to be waiting for him in our personal dungeon.  i am expected to have set up the music, lit incense, brought cold bottles of water in,  and be kneeling in the center of the room with my back to the door.  Sometimes he comes in right away and other times i can be kneeling for what seems like an eternity.  He will then take off my everyday collar, kiss the back of my neck, and replace it with my play collar.  i am usually cuffed, blindfolded and sometimes gagged and told to crawl to my corner.  I kneel in my corner facing the wall while he sets up what he will need for the session.  i am to be clearing my mind of everything outside the room and getting my head to the right place.


After our scene and aftercare is given, i'm told to crawl to the center of the room and kneel.  Sir takes off my play collar, kisses the back of my neck, and replaces my everyday collar.  When my everyday collar is on we consider the scene complete.


These are the rituals that we use in the dungeon, they really work well for me as a way to cleanse my mind and help me to be in the right place for our scene.  Even not having one of the components throws me off and makes it more difficult for me to reach subspace.


i'd love to hear from you about what ritual or ceremony you use when playing.  i think as submissives we can share knowledge and tips to help each other serve more completely, and to get the most out of our playtime.  i know Sir is open to suggestions from me as long as they are respectfully worded and are given at a time that is appropriate.  (Mid scene is NOT the time!)
