Welcome to stars and stillness,
A journey within and beyond.
The Aquarius New Moon.
As we settle into this guided meditation,
Begin by noticing the natural heaviness of your body,
Whether you are laying on the floor or resting in a chair.
Feel the length of your inhale and trace your exhale as it flows down the length of your body,
Grounding you through the soles of your feet.
Notice the gentle sensations of your breath against your nose,
Lips,
And cheeks.
Feel how each exhale softens the backs of your shoulders and deepens your connection to the ground beneath you.
With every breath,
You are grounding yourself in the here and the now,
While opening to the limitless possibilities of the future.
Take a few moments to allow your breath and your thoughts to merge as one.
With each exhale,
Feel a wave of complete presence wash over you.
Your body feels heavy and rooted.
If you tried to move,
You would notice the weight of your body holding you gently in place.
And that's okay.
Because in this stillness,
A part of you knows you are on the brink of something new.
The words new,
Innovative,
And fresh resonate somewhere within you.
Allow your breath to guide you to those places.
As your breath softens,
Allowing the mind to be guided to a place where you connect with your tribe,
Your people.
Perhaps it's a group of friends,
A yoga community,
Or a circle of kindred spirits.
Picture the faces of those who inspire and support you.
Feel the warmth of their presence.
Notice the joy that arises from being accepted just as you are.
Basking in this feeling of love and belonging,
Imagine being handed a small folded piece of paper.
Without opening it,
You sense that this paper contains something important.
A new idea,
A path,
Or a wish that is calling to you.
Hold it gently in your palms,
Feeling the energy of its message.
Even though you haven't unfolded it,
You can sense the future beckoning.
Take a moment and notice how your body feels.
Alive,
Full of excitement,
Brimming with potential.
Visualize what might be written on that paper.
Or perhaps it's simply an image.
Draw upon the energy of your body and allow the vision of your next path to emerge.
If doubts or fears arise,
Simply notice them without judgment.
Let them come and go,
Knowing that they are fleeting.
Here in this moment,
You are planting a seed.
A seed for your future.
A seed to manifest what serves your highest good.
The good of humanity and the well-being of the communities you care for.
Now slowly bring that piece of paper to your heart.
Hold it close and begin to carefully peel back the edges,
Slowly unfolding its secret.
As you open the paper,
Notice the sensations in your body.
Read what is written,
Or feel it.
If the message isn't in words,
Perhaps it is drawn in invisible ink.
Or maybe it's not written at all,
But instead etched in the energy of your heart.
Whatever is on this paper is your reminder that you are part of a greater whole.
You are a unique thread in the fabric of humanity.
Carrying gifts and talents that only you can offer.
This message,
This vision,
Is your seed for the future.
A future not only for yourself,
But for the collective good of all.
Gently fold the paper back up and hold it close to your heart once more.
Look around and see the faces of your tribe.
Feeling the love and acceptance that surrounds you.
Notice how it feels to be deeply connected,
Supported,
And valued.
As you bring your awareness back to your body,
Carry with you the vision of your future and the safety of belonging.
Feel your breath deepen,
The fullness of your lungs expanding,
And the soothing rhythm of the exhale grounding.
When you're ready,
Begin to gently move your fingers and toes,
Or simply rest here for a moment longer.
Slowly,
When it feels right,
Open your eyes,
Carrying this feeling of purpose and connection into your day.
Thank you for joining me.
