🌸 Holy Rituals 🌸

There are various holy rituals in heaven and it is very important to take part in them. The first ritual, which is still optional, takes place between the ages of six and seven. It is up to the parents to decide whether angel children take part in it or not. The next and therefore most important ritual is the one for each angel's age of majority. When an angel reaches the age of 18, they are called to take part in the next age of majority ritual, also known as the sanctification ritual. This is also the ritual in which angels are officially canonized and receive a halo.
Some angels also develop angel marks afterwards. However, this does not have to happen. In addition to canonization, this ritual is very important for the health of the angels. The rituals after this most important ritual are also essential for health. Angels are therefore more or less forced to take part in the holy rituals. 

If an angel is banished, they are considered fallen angels. Not only are they forbidden to enter the capital without permission, but they are also prohibited from taking part in the rituals, which can have fatal consequences for their health. Due to these health aspects, angels do not actually voluntarily refuse to take part in the rituals. After the ritual of sanctification, these must be performed every few years in order to avoid damage to health.

At the time when the original Ruling Family still reigned, these rituals were also performed, but were not absolutely necessary for health. However, this then changed. The reason for this is kept a secret by the current Ruling Family and the Highest and is no longer questioned, but simply accepted.
