Welcome to this Kabbalah meditation for the month of Cancer.
Known in Hebrew.
As Tammuz.
Tammuz begins with the New Moon,
A time when the Moon disappears from sight before beginning its journey back toward fullness.
In Kabbalah,
The hidden moon reminds us that darkness is not empty.
It's a place of renewal.
Possibility,
And unseen growth.
Find a comfortable position and gently close your eyes.
Take a slow breath in and a slower breath out.
Again,
Take a slow breath in.
And a slower breath out.
Imagine yourself sitting beneath a great tree.
Its roots reach deep into the earth.
Its branches stretch toward the sky.
The tree stands quietly between heaven and earth.
Take a moment to feel your own roots.
Feel the support beneath you.
Feel yourself settling into this moment.
Above you is a dark night sky.
The moon cannot be seen.
And yet you know it is there.
Present.
Becoming.
Just as the moon continues its journey even when invisible,
Your soul continues its journey even when the path is unclear.
Bring your awareness to your heart.
Notice whatever is present.
There's nothing to fix and nothing to change.
Only a gentle invitation to see.
In Kabbalah.
Tammuz is associated with sight.
Not simply seeing with the eyes,
But seeing with the soul,
Seeing beyond fear,
Seeing beyond appearances.
Seeing what is true.
Imagine a soft light glowing within your heart.
With each breath,
The light grows brighter.
Allow it to illuminate whatever is asking for your attention.
A feeling,
A relationship,
A decision.
Or a dream.
Ask yourself.
What am I being invited to see more clearly?
What truth is waiting beneath the surface?
There is no need to search for answers.
Simply listen.
Like the roots of a tree growing unseen beneath the earth,
Wisdom often emerges quietly.
Like the moon hidden in darkness,
Something within you is preparing to emerge.
Trust what is unfolding.
Trust what is growing.
Trust what is being revealed.
Take a slow breath in and silently repeat,
I trust the wisdom of the unseen.
As you breathe out.
I welcome what is becoming.
Again.
Inhale.
I trust the wisdom of the Unseen.
Exhale.
I welcome what is becoming.
Rest here for a few moments.
Take one final deep breath.
Feel the roots beneath you.
The branches above you.
And yourself held between heaven and earth.
When you are ready,
Gently return your awareness to the room and slowly open your eyes.
May this month of Tammuz help you see with greater clarity.
Trust the wisdom hidden within the darkness.
And remember that not everything real can be seen.
Like the moon.
You are always.
Becoming.
