This prayer is to be said while washing ones' hands in preparation for many of the other rites and rituals of the Religio Romana.

  • Wash both hands in clean water and pray:
May this water cast out all impurities from my substance as from lead to gold.
'''Hæc aqua impuritates a corpore velut plumbo ad aurum mutando eluat.
  • Place both hands upon your head and pray:
Purify my mind.
Purga mentem.
  • Bring the arms down to your sides with hands in gesture to your body and pray:
Purify my body.
Purga corpus.
  • Place both hands on the chest, over the heart and pray:
Purify my heart.
Purga animum.
  • Take a moment to focus and become fully present and affirm:
It is so.
Ita est!
