I'm so glad you're here.
Today we'll call on the wisdom of fire,
Water,
Air,
And earth to anchor our intentions and receive the energies we most need.
These elements live within us and around us,
Reminding us that we're part of something greater.
Fire.
If you have a candle,
A glass of water,
Or a plant or stone,
Feel free to gather them,
But your imagination is just as powerful.
So I'll invite you to get comfortable,
Rest your hands,
And close down your eyes or soften your gaze.
Relax.
Taking a slow inhale into your belly and ribs,
And exhaling from the ribs,
And belly relaxes.
Again,
Breathing in,
Belly rises,
Ribs expand.
And breathing it out,
Ribs release,
Belly relaxes.
One more time,
Belly rises,
Ribs expand.
And releasing the ribs,
Belly relaxes.
Letting your breath settle naturally as you arrive here.
Imagining a small candle before you.
If you have one,
Light it now.
If not,
Picture its flame flickering gently,
Golden and alive.
Whisper into this candle what you wish to collect,
Empowerment,
Clarity,
Inspiration,
Support,
Whatever you long for.
See your intention weaving into the wax itself,
Like a secret message carried by the flame.
As the fire burns,
Imagine the smoke lifting your prayer upward,
Sending it out into the universe.
Breathing in the warmth and brightness of the fire,
And feel it settle in your chest.
Bringing your awareness to a glass of water,
Or imagine holding one in your hands.
Whisper your intention softly into it,
As if the water could hold your dream.
Now drink slowly,
Or picture yourself sipping,
Feeling it move down your throat,
Into your belly,
Spreading through your body.
As it flows,
See,
Feel,
And even taste your dream coming to life.
Imagine the colors,
The sounds,
The sensations of it,
As already real.
Now turning to the air,
The unseen,
Ever-present element that moves around and through you.
Lifting your hand and tracing your intention into the space before you,
Or whisper it softly into the breeze.
See the air carrying your wish outward,
Spiraling it into the currents all around the earth.
Now inhale deeply,
Drawing that very intention back in.
Feel it filling your lungs,
Expanding your chest,
Flowing through your bloodstream.
Notice how air moves easily,
Without effort.
Your intention is carried just as lightly.
Finally,
Turning your attention to the earth.
If you have a stone,
Crystal,
Or plant nearby,
Hold it now.
If not,
Picture a great tree before you,
Its roots stretching deep into the soil.
Whisper your intention into this living force.
On your inhale,
Draw up strength and steadiness from the earth.
On your exhale,
Offer your breath and gratitude back down,
Feeding the roots.
Breathe in from the earth.
Breathe out to the earth.
With each cycle,
Feel yourself more rooted,
More steady,
More supported.
You are part of this sacred exchange,
Giving and receiving in balance.
Take a deep breath in,
And a long breath out,
Wiggling your fingers and toes.
Thank yourself for showing up with intention,
And know your wishes are already in motion,
Fluttering your eyes open as you're ready.
Now go and spread your magic in the way only you can.
