Hello and welcome to our community meditation space.
My name is Vivian Girard and it is my delight to be guiding us in a meditation for the full moon in Aries.
As we close our eyes and begin to settle into our community space,
I invite you to picture yourself walking into our virtual living room,
Finding your seat,
And joining our circle as we turn our attention towards astrology as a lens through which to better understand our human journey.
Okay,
Feet firmly planted on the earth.
Allow yourself to land fully here.
You can do that by slowing down your breathing.
And by bringing your attention all the way down through your body to your feet.
When you bring your attention to your feet,
You start to see how you are connected to this moment.
You the infinite soul choosing to be in the human body.
In this specific place where your feet have landed today.
So wiggle your toes more firmly into your socks,
Your shoes,
The grass,
The carpet.
And to notice how as you focus on your feet,
More of your attention,
Your awareness is starting to come down into your body.
You are also in a community space where we are all focusing on this together,
Which amplifies the power of what you are experiencing.
Not that you are doing the work for anybody else or picking up anyone else's energy.
It is a collective focus that amplifies the power of our own individual focus.
So relax your muscles.
Allow it to be an easy,
Gentle landing here in this moment,
Fully present in your body,
Your life.
Your home,
Your place where you meditate.
As you feel your feet connected to the planet.
Imagine you can start to grow roots.
From the bottoms of your feet,
We are going to visualize these roots winding deep and down.
Far underneath the surface of the earth where we are in this moment.
For your mind,
Why is it necessary to root in a meditation?
Our focus today will be on truth,
Knowing truth,
Feeling truth.
And when we explore such a big concept.
It takes deep,
Grounded rootedness in this moment to hold us steady as we clarify and strengthen our truths.
If you imagine the tallest trees,
The strongest trees,
With big trunks and wide branches and tons of leaves,
Lots of energy,
Those trees have the deepest roots.
So allow yourself to root deep down.
Through all the layers of the soil underneath you,
Winding and overlapping with the tree roots that are meeting you there.
Relaxing your muscles,
It's not a forcing,
It's an inviting.
And allowing of your roots to go deeper and wider.
As your roots merge and overlap with the roots around you of all the trees in your neighborhood,
In your region,
The deeper you go,
The more the roots connect.
Energetically,
Even if not physically.
And notice how your body,
Your mind start to calm.
As you tap into that power,
That quiet underneath the surface of the earth.
It's not an emptiness.
It is a powerful fullness.
A vortex of creativity,
Strength,
Growth,
Nourishment.
Truth.
When your roots go deep,
Deep down and wide.
Underneath where you are in this moment,
Your body can relax.
There is a knowing,
A trust that you are safe.
And that you are held by the energy of our planet.
So relax your muscles.
And as your roots go deeper and wider down underneath you,
Start to straighten your spine,
Your back,
And your body.
It's a stretching that we do.
We go deeper down and we also are even more firmly here.
In this moment,
In this body.
If you are able to be somewhere where there is support at your back,
That would be the best.
So allow yourself to feel how much support is behind you.
Physically with the cushion,
The wall,
The chair,
The bed.
And also energetically.
With your higher self,
Your soul,
Your guides,
The angels.
Your ancestors,
The ones who have walked before you.
And who in any moment that you choose to allow them.
We'll be right at your back.
Feel your roots going deeper,
Even as your back is straight and supported.
And then orient your body.
So that you are aligned facing forward with your eyes closed.
Back straight,
Muscles relaxed.
Chin straight.
Heart open.
And notice how as your mind has been focusing on supporting your body,
Getting into position and the energy moving.
Your mind has partnered with your body.
Your mind is working with your alignment.
If the thoughts come in,
They just float out as your mind continues to focus on your body being strong and aligned and steady.
Your roots going deep down into the earth.
Even as your back is straight and supported.
For your mind as your body relaxes into this position,
This energetic frequency.
For your mind I weave in some of the current astrology because of its power.
Your mind will receive the words,
The nuggets that most serve you,
Your soul's next awareness.
Your next step in your journey.
Your mind will select the words that most serve.
And then bring those words forward after the meditation and you can take the next step from there.
Follow the trail,
Explore the astrology.
We begin with a full moon in Aries.
Allow your body to feel those words.
Your body already knows the frequency.
A full moon illumination.
Awareness,
Ahas,
Breakthroughs.
Seeing fully,
With eyes wide open.
Bringing us to a completion of a pattern,
A cycle,
A habit,
A thought,
A belief,
A mindset.
Relax your muscles.
A full moon in Aries.
Aries begins a new zodiac cycle.
Aries starts,
Initiates,
Activates.
Aries connects with authenticity.
Courage to stand in our own unique individual expression.
So we will see what has been stopping or blocking us.
From being our full selves.
From stepping forward into new aligned action,
From authenticity.
So you breathe,
You release anything that you are aware of in this moment that may be blocking you down through your body to your feet and into the earth.
Down through those roots to be transmuted.
Then you relax your muscles and we bring in another layer of the astrology.
Chiron is moving backwards through Aries for a few months now through April.
Chiron is our wound.
The thing that we are here to most deeply work on in this lifetime.
Chiron dipped into Taurus and now is going back to do the final touches on Aries.
After an eight-year journey through Aries.
Eight years,
Think of who you were in 2018.
All that you have been exploring about your wounds.
All that you have released,
Completed.
The awarenesses you have had.
And now here you are getting a final dust off,
Clean up,
Touch up.
The last little pieces.
Brought to your awareness so that you can complete and release them.
Now through January.
And then into April.
Use your breath to allow any energetics to move down through to your feet and into the earth.
And then one more layer.
Venus.
Venus is beauty,
Relationships,
The feminine,
The masculine,
The way that we express and connect Venus is moving through Scorpio for an unusually long amount of time.
We'll dip back into Libra briefly.
October,
November,
And then come back.
Into Scorpio December through January.
Venus and Scorpio,
Let your body feel.
The energy of that.
We are activating deeper truth.
We are clearing where we do not trust,
Where we are not in our power,
Our beauty,
Ourselves,
Fully in our relationships Venus's resources.
This is a time for standing in truth.
Truth with a capital T.
Not little truth,
White lie truth,
Covering up pleasing other people truth.
Capital T truth.
Truth is,
I believe,
Easier to stand in when we feel safe.
When we trust.
When we trust ourselves,
When we trust those around us.
So bring your attention again all the way down through your body to your feet.
And then down through the roots that you have allowed to move deep into the core of our planet,
Way down through all the layers of earth.
Right to the core.
As you do that,
Feel the tug in your stomach,
Your legs.
You are rooted,
Grounded,
Steady,
Connected,
Here in this moment,
In this body,
On this planet.
Any doubt,
Any fear,
Allow it to run out your roots and into the earth to be transmuted or alchemized.
Keep your roots connected and straighten your back again.
Allow yourself to be fully present here in this body.
Shoulders back,
Heart open.
Lift your chin.
And allow all of this information we just gave to the mind,
To the body.
To settle inside of you.
You know your truth.
You know when others are speaking their truth.
Sometimes their truth and our truth is not the same.
And so we are invited to keep our heart open,
To listen,
To understand another one's truth.
Without compromising or sacrificing our own.
This is Venus in Scorpio.
Relax your muscles.
It is a time for empowered,
Aligned communication.
For deep listening from our ears,
From our hearts,
From our bodies.
For holding boundaries.
When there is no place to meet between my truth and their truth.
And allowing it to be okay.
Knowing that sometimes that brings completions.
Full moon in Aries.
Because we are beginning new cycles,
New patterns,
New relationships.
New ways of walking and expressing in our own unique individual truths.
Relax your muscles again.
Truth can cause us to tense up,
To tighten,
To contract,
Because we can be afraid of another's reaction or of a judgment,
Of the vulnerability of sharing truth.
And so it is a constant coming back to the body.
Feeling the roots deep underneath you,
Holding you strong and steady like the trees.
Relaxing your muscles,
Consciously saying to your body,
I am safe.
I am safe to speak and express my truth.
I am safe.
Running any fear down through the roots into the ground,
Into the earth.
Straightening your spine and opening your heart again.
This is the process,
The way to walk and move through this time.
You are stronger than you know.
You are more powerful than you have remembered.
When you stand in your truth,
Your body knows and feels your alignment.
So breathe.
For release.
And then steady yourself.
We're going to sit for a minute or two and just be in this frequency together as you Allow it all to be inside of you.
Relax your muscles one more time.
Straighten your spine.
And then as you feel ready,
We are going to come out of the meditation space.
So gently open your eyes and just look at one thing in front of you.
I have a crystal in my right hand and I'm wiggling my fingers around the crystal.
So you can wiggle your fingers,
Wiggle your toes,
Start to sit up and maybe move your shoulders,
Allow your eyes to take in more information in the room around you.
This is where you have chosen to be as you are in this moment on this planet and it is all so perfect.
Even when our minds don't understand,
Our inner sight,
Our inner knowing and vision is creating the external reality.
So both are true.
Allow them to merge and surprise and delight you in unexpected ways as what you see inside to manifest so rapidly in your external reality.
I encourage you to drink a big glass of water to perhaps write down any reflections in your journal that you want to be able to come back to and then come back to this meditation over the next few months as we keep walking through Venus in Scorpio and Chiron in Aries.
It is a powerful time to stand in truth,
And you are not doing it by yourself.
Come join us in our lives and let's do this together.
Thank you so much for meditating with me.
I send you so much love today.
