Welcome,
Beloved one.
Settle now into the stirring,
Vital presence of the quickening moon.
This is the light of the hidden pulse.
The moon of the sap,
Rising in the dark,
A silvery glow that illuminates the life force preparing to break through the frost.
It is the perfect time to observe the richness of your own becoming.
We sometimes find ourselves holding a memory of worry quite close,
Tucking it away like a treasure,
As if the act of carrying it creates a steady ground beneath our feet.
We find comfort in the familiarity of the weight,
Walking the well-worn paths of our own thoughts until the habit itself feels like home.
This clenching is like a heavy anchor,
A silver cord that ties us to a version of ourselves that was once bracing for the winter.
Imagine your spirit now as a magnificent vessel crafted for the open water,
Already floating with quiet dignity on a wide,
Shimmering sea that is finally beginning to thaw.
The silvery light shines down,
Revealing a beautiful truth.
The vessel is already buoyant.
You are already safe.
The anchor you have been tending is simply a weight that has forgotten its purpose.
It is a burden that rests on the deck,
Separate from the water itself.
Your practice now is the compassionate,
Simple act of letting the line go slack.
We are affirming the quiet,
Unstoppable,
Inherent grace of your spirit as it prepares to bloom.
Allow the moonlight to find where you have been holding on with great strength.
It is time to let the water carry you.
Settle softly now,
Allowing your body to yield the profound support beneath you.
Notice the breath,
Easy and deep,
Carrying the steady glow of the moon into your very core.
Bring your awareness to the places in your body where you feel the most solid,
Where you have gathered your strength for the coming spring.
Perhaps you feel a pulsing in your stomach,
A concentration of your own power.
Offer this area a soft,
Shimmering light.
Perhaps you feel the height of your shoulders,
The pillars of your own resolve.
Offer this area a breath of warm,
Soothing air.
We are observing with infinite tenderness how much space you take up in this world.
Focus now on the energy held in your solar plexus,
Just above the navel.
This is the center of your sun,
The place where you hold your deep,
Vibrant capacity to be.
Imagine a shimmering moonbeam of light flowing from the peak of the sky directly into your hands.
This light is pure,
Clear intention.
It is the absolute power of presence.
With this illuminated intention in your hands,
Bring your focus back to that center of power.
There is no need for effort.
There is only the quiet,
Deliberate choice to be light.
Imagine your hands gently receiving the moonbeam,
Becoming instruments of grace.
With a soft,
Steady exhale,
Visualize the connection to the old wave simply dissolving.
The tie softens.
The tether vanishes.
The old habit of worry is released to drift away,
Sinking into the deep,
Quiet waters of the past.
Feel the immediate,
Profound openness that flows into your core.
Your spirit vessel is now entirely free to glide,
Guided only by the gentle current of your own life force.
You are free.
Take one final,
Long,
Soft breath,
Allowing the vast,
Silver light of freedom to flow through every part of your body.
You are whole.
You are unburdened.
You are floating with quiet grace upon the wide,
Luminous sea of the present moment.
Move gently from this space when you are ready,
Carrying the quiet,
Sustained conviction of your effortless movement.
Thank you for choosing to be free.
