Hello and welcome to this guided meditation here on insight timer.
Within this meditation I am going to guide you on a shamanic journey of connecting with the spirit animal of the spider.
Before doing so however,
Let me share with you my soul pathway oracle card so that you are able to connect with the gifts and medicine that come from the spirit animal of the spider.
Now the spirit animal of the spider symbolises the weaving of the web of life.
Your reality is shaped by the way you perceive it.
This is a message to not get caught up in your own web of illusions.
Allow yourself to see beyond your limitations.
Spiders also resemble the wheel of life and the cycles of fate and fortune.
If you are connecting with the spirit animal of the spider,
Then you are being asked to become conscious of your own thoughts.
Instead of viewing challenging situations as fate,
Notice the fortune in the opportunities.
Now is the time to become the master of your own mind as you weave your own web.
Now let me guide you on this shamanic journey for connecting with the spirit animal of the spider.
Please reframe from listening to this guided meditation if you have any fear or phobia of spiders.
Now let's begin this guided meditation.
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 you can connect with this guided shamanic journey and embrace this beautiful spirit animal as you connect with the spider.
Take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth.
In through your nose and out through your mouth.
One more time in through your nose and out through your mouth.
And allow yourself to relax and let go.
Any thoughts inside of your mind,
Allow them to drift away as you connect with the sound of my voice.
And as you begin relaxing your mind,
Now let's relax your body as you start from the top of your head and move that relaxation down and deeper down all the way to the tips of your toes.
First of all,
Relaxing your forehead,
Bringing that relaxation down to your eyes as your eyelids begin to close and they become heavy.
Bring that relaxation down through your nose,
Through your jaw and your cheekbones as they begin to soften and feel much more at ease.
Bring that relaxation further down through to your neck as you relax the muscles in your neck and you feel much more at ease as you allow that relaxation to then float down into your shoulders.
As you relax your shoulders,
Focus on your breathing.
As you take a deep breath in,
Raise your shoulders and as you take that outward breath,
Allow your shoulders to just fall by your wayside as they become loose,
Limp and lazy.
And as those muscles continue to relax and to soften.
Bring that relaxation down through to your torso as you relax your torso and down your arms,
Relaxing your arms.
And as you allow that relaxation to float down through your stomach as that feels much more comfortable and at ease as well.
And then allowing that relaxation to float down through to your waist and down your legs,
Through to your knees as you relax your knees and your joints begin to loosen up now as well.
As you bring that relaxation further down to your ankles as you relax your ankles as well and all of those joints and then all of the way to the tips of your toes.
Almost as if you feel this blanket of relaxation protecting you and supporting you on this guided shamanic journey of connecting with the spirit animal of the spider.
Feel that aura of relaxation flow all over you as it gives you that protection,
Support and also provides you with that unconditional love.
Now let's connect with the shamanic drum as you connect with Mother Nature and the heartbeat of your soul.
I'd like you to focus on your breathing as you take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth as you tune in to the drum as you connect with the rhythm of your soul with the heartbeats of nature and Mother Earth.
I'd like you to imagine now connecting with nature as you feel your feet planted to Mother Earth to assist you with grounding and rooting yourself in nature for protection and support.
As you connect with Mother Earth feel the sun shining upon your face as you feel the warmth on your skin.
Feel the earth beneath your feet as you feel that beautiful grounding source and hear the sounds of nature as you connect with the animals around you and the sense of nature itself.
That's right.
See through your own eyes,
Hear through your own ears and feel that beautiful sensation and feeling as you connect with Mother Earth.
That's right.
Taking a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth as you become at one with nature and the heartbeat of the drum.
Now allow yourself to walk in nature and as you walk in nature continue to feel the earth beneath your feet as you connect with your surroundings and the animals around you.
You may picture yourself in this incredible forest where you're walking your own path and as you walk through the forest allow yourself to connect with the trees as you become at one with their energies as well.
As you connect with the trees notice and feel this sense of intrigue as you look around the trees at which you connect with.
When you do allow yourself to then notice this incredible spider's web that stands in front of you.
And on this spider's web notice this spider that sits upon it.
Become intrigued by the spider as you connect with it and allow yourself to become intrigued by the web at which they've weaved.
Allow yourself to also connect with the spider itself as you become at one with this spider.
Float inside the body of the spider as you become at one with it and the spider becomes at one with you.
Now imagine seeing yourself through the eyes of the spider as you notice your own web as you connect with the weaving of your own web of life.
Notice that this is your home and your home is how you create your reality.
Your reality is shaped by the way you perceive it.
This is a message to not get caught up in your own web of illusions but instead allow yourself to see beyond your limitations.
As you walk upon your web you may feel this urge to build upon your web as you begin weaving your web of life.
As your web begins to grow and expand as you see beyond your limitations and you notice the possibilities in your life and how this incredible web can be weaved from one tree to another.
As you take those leaps of faith in life as you branch from one place in life to the next by weaving your own web.
This is the resemblance of the wheel of life and your cycles of fate and fortune as you continue to focus on the possibilities.
As you connect with the spirit animal of the spider here you are being asked to become conscious of your own thoughts.
Instead of viewing challenging situations as fate notice the fortune in the opportunities.
As you continue weaving your own web as it gets larger and larger.
As your consciousness begins to expand and as you begin to notice the fortune in the opportunities in your life.
Now is the time for you to become a master of your own mind as you weave your own web.
That's right notice how the spider is guiding you on your path to notice the possibilities as you grow develop and transcend on your journey and path.
Now allow yourself to walk back to the center of your web and to the center of your own reality.
As you reflect upon the wheel of life and your cycles of fate and fortune that are being presented to you right now.
Then allow yourself to float out of the body of the spider as you begin to connect with yourself and your soul once more.
Take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth and feel the energy of the spider now within you.
As you reflect upon your own life and your own cycles of fate and fortune notice the possibilities that are endless in your life right now.
As you weave your own web of life your reality is shaped by the way in which you perceive it.
Now allow yourself to slowly come back to now as you connect with yourself and your surroundings.
Always be conscious of your own thoughts and instead of viewing those challenging situations as fate notice the fortune in the opportunities and possibilities that are presented to you.
Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth and allow yourself to come back to now as you become the master of your own mind as you begin to weave your own web.
