This post provides the outline and texts for a mikveh immersion ceremony to spiritually prepare for Yom Kippur. With guiding questions, kavanot (intentions), Hebrew and English blessings, and musical chants from biblical verses, this ceremony focuses on the transformative power of the ritual waters to help us let go of our struggles, forgive ourselves and each other, and enter the new year with an open heart. The melodies for the chants can be heard below. This ceremony was created by Rabbi Shefa Gold, a Renewal and Reconstuctionist Rabbi who teaches chanting, devotional healing, spiritual community-building and meditation. This ritual was shared on on Ritualwell.org, a project of the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College that provides a platform for creating new Jewish practices.
