This meditation is for the Enneagram Type 4,
The Sacred Individualist.
Setting the intention to move from being the exiled one to becoming an alchemist and an artist.
Sitting comfortably and allowing your eyes to close.
Notice the emotional weather inside you.
Notice the emotional atmosphere.
Not a story.
Notice the texture.
The sensation… Is it heavy?
Is it tender?
Is it yearning?
Is it vast?
Send your breath to whatever is present without amplifying it.
Allow any sensation to move naturally through your body.
As if it is flowing like water.
Or mist or fog.
And now feel support.
Beneath your body.
Feel your body being held.
Notice that you are always held.
Even in ordinary moments.
Even in the mundane.
You are held.
Take a full,
Deep inhale.
Exhale this breath out slowly.
Stay with this deep breath pattern.
As you imagine.
A figure approaching.
The alchemist,
The artist.
This archetype transforms emotion.
Into wisdom.
This archetype transforms beauty into embodiment.
This archetype breathes depth into each connection.
The Alchemist Artist.
Is not suffering.
The alchemist artist is integrating.
Notice how your body responds to the word integration.
And gently ask yourself,
What part of me believes I must remain incomplete?
In order.
To be special.
Wear in your body.
How do you feel?
The truth.
What emotions are arising naturally?
Notice if there's attachment to longing itself.
A story.
Woven through melancholy.
An attachment to distance,
To separation.
There's no need to reject.
These attachments.
Instead,
We use them.
Imagine that that alchemist artist is placing both hands on your shoulders.
And as they breathe with you,
They say.
You do not lose your depth.
When you become grounded.
Breathe that message into your legs.
Feel that energy in your hips.
Anchoring you through your feet.
Feel yourself becoming more rooted in this present moment.
Continuing to breathe in.
You do not lose your depth.
And breathe out when you are grounded.
Breathing in.
.
.
The awareness that there is no risk.
In losing.
Your magic,
Your depth.
Your mystery.
Your emotion.
When grounding is present.
You are not abandoning depth.
In fact.
The alchemist-artist embodies the depth.
This depth helps you channel.
Each and every emotion that arises for you.
This depth allows you to experience the difference between feeling.
.
.
An emotion and becoming consumed by an emotion.
Taking full,
Supportive,
Deep breaths in.
Exhaling each breath out.
As you breathe in,
Imagine you are transforming emotion into wisdom.
As you breathe out,
You are releasing suffering and separation.
Breathe in wisdom.
Breathe out suffering.
Breathing in deeply.
Breathing out completely.
As we close this meditation.
Continue to ask yourself.
What beauty.
What art emerges.
When I fully inhabit my life.
What beauty.
Emerges when I fully inhabit.
My life.
