Morning Sketch Ritual

Begin your day in stillness. Let the feelings, symbols, and sensations from your dream space rise naturally. Let your hand respond without pressure or perfection. This is a ritual of listening.

Emotion I woke up with

What feeling lingered as you opened your eyes? Is there a mood, sensation, or color that holds your waking energy? Write a single word, or a few. Trust what comes up.

Symbols, images, or metaphors I remember

Was there a visual or abstract impression from your dreams or early morning awareness? Describe it in simple terms—a shape, a color, a figure, a flash of something meaningful or strange. This doesn’t need to make sense.

Prepare a sketch space

Leave a large blank area for intuitive drawing, mark-making, or freeform visual response.
There are no rules—use lines, shapes, colors, or patterns that feel aligned with your emotional state or the dream energy.

Let Emotion Guide Your Hand

As you draw, ask yourself:What wants to come through me right now? Don’t worry about style or technique. Let this be movement. Let this be translation. This is your subconscious speaking—listen with your hands.
