Welcome,
Dear one.
If you're here,
Your heart may be reaching across time and space,
Longing,
Remembering,
Hoping for a sign or a sense of connection.
This is a meditation for meeting the presence of someone who has passed,
Not in a loud or dramatic way,
But in the soft,
Quiet,
Limeral places,
In the shimmer,
In the hush,
In the language only love understands.
Let's begin by finding a comfortable position,
Somewhere you can be still for a little while.
Let your hands rest softly and close your eyes if it feels safe.
Take a deep breath in and exhale gently,
Like a sigh.
Again,
Inhale and exhale.
Let your shoulders melt,
Let your thoughts slow down and start to drift gently by.
Let yourself simply arrive.
There's no need to seek or try.
We're not calling anyone in.
We're opening with a gentle invitation,
Allowing room for their love to find its way to us.
Now sense,
Visualize,
Or imagine yourself in a peaceful,
Luminous space,
A sanctuary between worlds.
It could be a quiet forest,
A sunlit meadow,
A starlit shore,
Or a space that appears only in your dreams.
Let it take shape gently.
This place exists just for you.
You can create it any way you wish,
A gentle refuge where their presence is welcome.
Safe,
Calm,
Timeless.
Take a moment to just be here,
Listening,
Waiting.
If there's someone you're missing deeply right now,
You may gently think of them.
You might speak their name in your mind,
Or recall a memory that feels warm and alive.
Not to hold on tightly,
But to let them know you're here.
That your heart is listening,
That you remember.
Now let your heart call out gently to your loved one,
You are welcome here,
I am open to your presence.
Imagine now that the very air around you begins to shimmer.
There's no need to see anything clearly.
You might feel a sensation,
A change in the energy,
Or perhaps a sudden calm or warmth washes over you.
Trust whatever arises.
And if nothing arises,
That's okay too.
The love is still here.
Take a moment to feel their presence.
Now if you wish,
You may ask this loved one,
Is there anything you want me to know today?
Let the response come gently in the form of a feeling,
An image,
A phrase,
Or perhaps just a knowing,
Or even just silence that feels full.
Trust whatever arrives,
Their love may speak to you in subtle ways.
If you'd like,
You can also offer them a message from your heart.
Something unsaid,
Something simple,
Or maybe a shared joke,
Something only they would understand.
This is your time to use how you'd like.
So take a moment now to be with them in your own way.
And if you feel ready,
Offer your thanks.
Even if all you felt was stillness,
You've taken time to honor your bond,
And this is a sacred act.
In your heart,
You might say,
Thank you for being with me in life and beyond.
I carry you forward and knowing I am never truly alone.
Begin to return now,
Slowly,
Softly.
You can come back here anytime.
Feel your breath in your body,
The weight of where you're resting,
And the room around you.
You might bring one hand to your heart and gently press,
Sealing in this moment of connection.
Remember,
Love transcends time and space.
Your connection endures.
And when you're ready,
Open your eyes and carry their light with you,
A whisper from beyond,
Woven into your day.
