Sand ceremony wording

Sand ceremony wording

A family sand ceremony can be a beautiful addition to any naming ceremony.

Overview

An exmple of the wording you might use would be: Today you are making a commitment to guide and protect your children. Your family relationship is symbolized through the pouring of these individual containers of sand; one representing you Nicole and you Shane in all that you were, all that you are, and all that you will ever be. There are also two children – Maddison and Chelsea who will continue to be an important part of this union, making this family strong vibrant and joyous together.By combining the 4 coloured sands, the 4 of you represent the energies of the north, south east and west. As you each hold your sand, the separate containers of sand represent your lives to this moment; individual and unique. As you now combine your sand together, your lives also join together as one family. You may now blend the sand together symbolizing the uniting you all. Just as these grains of sand can never be separated and poured again into the individual containers, so will your family be.
