Hello and welcome to this Insight Timer guided meditation.
Within this session I'm going to guide you on a shamanic journey of connecting with the spirit animal of the Raven.
Before doing so,
Let me share with you my soul pathway oracle card,
So that you are able to connect with the Raven at a much deeper level and learn about its gifts and medicine to support you on your spiritual journey.
Now the spirit animal of the Raven calls you to connect with the great mystery of the darkness within yourself.
Symbolically,
Ravens appear when it's time for you to experience a shift in consciousness and awareness.
Delve deeply within your unconscious and explore your inner conflicts,
In order to bring to surface that which may have been locked away.
This can be a catalyst for the alchemical process of healing,
As you transform from darkness into light.
If you are connecting with the spirit animal of the Raven,
Then now is the time for you to notice your inner reflection as you integrate all aspects of yourself and bring your soul into unity and harmony.
Use the power of the Raven to shapeshift your reality as you bring about renewal in your life.
Now let's begin this guided shamanic journey to connect with the spirit animal of the Raven.
I'd like you to find a place where you can simply and easily relax away from any distractions that may be around you,
So that I may guide you on this deep shamanic journey of cleansing and healing as you transform darkness into light,
Through the great power of the Raven.
Let's begin by relaxing each and every muscle and fibre in your body,
Starting with the top of your head and bringing that relaxation down all the way to the tips of your toes,
So that you can deepen into this journey as you find and connect with yourself and the great mystery within your soul.
Relax the top of your head,
Bring that relaxation down through to your eyelids as they begin to soften and maybe feel slightly heavy.
As you bring that relaxation further down and deeper down through to your cheeks,
Relaxing all of your face muscles,
Relaxing now your jaw,
Bringing that relaxation further down and deeper down through to your neck,
Relaxing your neck as it feels slightly loose and at peace.
As you bring that relaxation down to your shoulders,
I'd like for you to take a deep breath in through your nose as you raise your shoulders and as you release,
Allow your shoulders to just fall by your wayside.
Do that one more time,
Breathing in through your nose and raising your shoulders and as you exhale,
Allow your shoulders to fall by your wayside,
So that you can begin relaxing your body as well as your mind and then you can allow yourself to relax your torso,
So that you can begin to feel much more comfortable and at ease with yourself.
As that relaxation moves further down your body,
It begins to deepen only at a place at which you feel more comfortable.
As you relax your arms and slowly allow that relaxation to float over your stomach,
Relaxing your stomach as you feel more at ease there and you may feel much more at ease in that seat at which you sat or that bed at which you lay.
You may almost feel as though you're sinking slowly into that bed or that seat as you feel more and more comfortable.
Bringing that relaxation further down now though,
Through your legs and to your knees,
As you begin relaxing all of your joints,
Your elbow joints,
Your shoulder joints,
Your knee joints and even your ankles,
So you can float in to this place of comfort,
Peace and this relaxation.
Bringing it all the way down now to the tips of your toes,
So that you can relax much more simply and easily.
You may find yourself feeling as though you have this blanket over you that's assisting you in relaxing and protecting you on this shamanic journey as you connect with your soul,
As you embrace the darkness and begin to bring it to light.
Feel yourself in that cocoon of relaxation and bring to mind a color that can help you deepen that place of peace and tranquility within.
Maybe a dark blue,
Maybe even a beautiful dark purple or another color that you associate to this deep tranquility of peace within you.
Now I'm going to guide you on this shamanic journey as you connect with the shamanic drum and you align with your mind,
Your body and your soul,
Taking everything at your own pace.
Allow yourself to become in sync and in tune with the shamanic drum as it resonates with the heartbeat of your soul.
Feel it resonate deeply with your soul as you bring the light,
Darkness and the shadow within as you create this sense of harmony and the union within your mind,
Body and soul.
Now I'd like for you to imagine taking a walk in nature and at this time it's coming to be dusk where you see the light but it's just arising or the light may be just fading.
Allow yourself to walk through nature and again connect with Mother Earth.
Feel the earth beneath your feet as you feel this unconditional love,
Nurture and support from her beautiful Mother Earth as it supports you on this quest.
Smell the freshness of the air and maybe the slight tint of red in the sky as you walk through nature.
Notice the tweeting of the birds that surround you.
As you look up to the trees you may begin to notice all of the beautiful species of birds as you connect with each and every one of them.
As you walk further through nature allow yourself to then notice a tree,
A beautiful tree and upon that tree you see a group of Ravens just sat there perching on the tree.
Allow yourself to connect with the Ravens as you become at one with them.
The Ravens are very much intrigued with you and the mystery within yourself as you are connecting with the great mystery of the beautiful and incredible Ravens and their amazing intelligence of which they hold.
As you look up to the branches notice that there is one Raven that you particularly connect with and it connects with you.
You lock eyes with one another and you can feel the beautiful glance of those black beady eyes as you become at one with this beautiful Raven.
Allow yourself to float in to the body of the Raven right now as you align your mind,
Your body and your soul with the Raven itself.
Know at this moment the Raven is calling you to connect with the great mystery of the darkness within yourself.
Answer the call from the Raven as it speaks to you,
As it speaks to your soul inviting you to notice that reflection that resides within your soul.
As with each and every bird it's calling you to view your situations from a higher perspective.
More importantly with the Raven however,
It's calling you to experience this shifting of consciousness within yourself as you can erase awareness and connect with your higher self.
Know that your unconscious is guiding you in this moment to connect with your inner conflicts in order to bring to surface that which may have been locked away.
Allow the Raven to take flight as it flies away from this tree and launches off the branches.
As you begin to do this,
You begin to see everything from a higher perspective.
As your consciousness begins to shift,
You notice the lessons and learning in the experiences and the trials and tribulations you faced as you bring awareness to who you are.
Now allow yourself to land on a cemented pavement.
When you do that notice a puddle that sits in front of you.
As you look into the puddle you begin to notice the reflection within yourself.
Your inner reflection is calling you to connect and integrate all aspects of yourself as you bring your soul into harmony and union.
The love,
The light and the shadow within.
Now is a time for you to accept the true beauty of who you are.
As you notice your reflection you can begin to use the magic of the Raven to shapeshift your reality.
As you bring about this sense of renewal in your life.
As you begin to take flight and shift that darkness into light.
Know that now is a catalyst for the alchemical process of healing.
As you transform that darkness into light you have the power to transform and change any situation in your life.
Only you allow yourself to shift your consciousness and awareness and awaken to the beauty of who you are.
Now is a time to notice that inner reflection within you so that you can resolve those unloved and unseen aspects within as you bring your soul into harmony.
Now allow yourself to take flight once more and perch on that tree as you feel this sense of wholeness and unity within.
As you've allowed yourself to shapeshift your reality.
Now allow yourself to look back at your human body once more and float back in to your human vessel.
Notice how you can begin shifting your own consciousness and awareness as you connect deeply with your soul and bring into harmony your mind,
Your body and your soul.
The love,
The light and your shadow.
Now is a time to use the magic of the Raven to shapeshift your reality as you bring about this beautiful sense of renewal in your life.
And when you're ready take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth and allow yourself to come back to now as you bring about this beautiful alchemical process of healing as you transform darkness into light.
Take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth and come back to now.
