Welcome to this meditation as we move from darkness into light.
Take your time to settle your body into this present moment.
Ground yourself with the energy of the earth beneath you and get a sense of your whole body breathing.
That gentle rise and fall of your chest as you inhale and exhale.
On your next exhale,
Invite your body to release any tension a little further.
Letting go as we arrive into this space.
Just as nature cycles from darkness to light,
We too can create a harmony of darkness and light within us.
A balance between the quiet nurture of night,
The wisdom of the moon and then the revitalizing energy of the sun,
The warmth,
The courage to follow our dreams.
So on your next few breaths,
I invite you to breathe in this fresh fertile energy of the sunlight and exhale the serenity of the moonlight.
A balance between both elements cycling through you,
Within you,
Around you.
I now invite you to tune into your imagination and create a scene in your mind whereby you are sitting outside in peace and stillness just before sunrise.
You may like to imagine a place that is familiar to you or somewhere that you create in your mind's eye.
Wherever you are,
Imagine that night's cloak is still covering the earth around you.
Nature still sleeps and the silver light of the moon beams down upon you.
Take this time to notice the dreams stirring within you.
The ones that appear in the hush of night.
That soft whisper of a voice of what could be.
Allow yourself to breathe with these dreams.
To exist with them.
To let them grow.
Let them become.
And now I invite you to imagine that in the distance you notice the sky beginning to change color.
The golden hues of amber,
Orange and crimson beginning to rise.
The sun beginning to awaken on this new day.
You hear the songs of birds in sync with the rising sun.
As more light begins to fill the sky,
You feel the warmth beginning to emanate through the earth.
In the distance,
Two birds taking flight capture your attention.
You see that they are two doves flying in unity,
In harmony towards you.
As you watch them glide,
It's almost like they are announcing the arrival of sunlight to nature around them.
Peeling back night's cloak as darkness takes rest.
Making space for the sun to rise.
As the two doves fly closer to you,
They seem to hover above your head.
Their presence seems to bring a knowing within you,
A trust.
A belief in the energy to take action on your dreams,
Making space for them in your life.
You watch as the doves continue on their journey,
Lifting the darkness and welcoming the light.
You watch as nature comes to life around you and you breathe in this energy.
Take some time to breathe with the harmony of yourself.
Letting the image of the visualisation softly fade into the distance.
As you arrive back to yourself,
Still feeling that belief,
That trust within you.
The balance between darkness and light.
The wisdom of the moon and our dreams with the energy of the sun.
May your day be blessed with balance.
Namaste.
