Sometimes I get that restless feeling too. I usually make some small change, like rearranging a cupboard, or something. It creates that feeling of change and soothes the spirit, without having to go some place I can't or to spend time on something I don't have time for. That restless feeling can be soothed easily with some creativity.

Then you also need to remind yourself that an initiation is not necessary to be a spiritual person. But if you feel you need one, you could easily design one to use in your home.

One that I did, before I knew it was unnecessary, is:

sit silently in a room on the floor, think about what God/dess means to you, and then light a simple white candle. Say something to the effect of "I dedicate all that I am, all that I will be, and all that I do to the God/dess from this day forward." You've just initiated yourself on a new spiritual path. It is easy to do and can be renewed anytime you need to.
