Hello and happy full moon in Virgo.
So I'm going to do a little bit of a brief astrological introduction in the beginning.
You can keep this as part of your meditation or maybe fast forward a little bit if you're not sort of feeling that it's meditative enough.
But what I would like you to do is maybe hit pause first and just grab some either lavender oil or maybe you have some dried lavender or a lavender candle around.
And just like that be present with the scent.
Really pay attention to the feeling that it brings to you.
And when you're ready,
I want you to find a comfortable position to lie down without any distractions.
Get this lavender scent around you and take three deep breaths into your belly.
Open the mouth,
Stick the tongue out and exhale through the mouth.
Lion's breath to cleanse and purify the throat chakra.
Last time.
And just take a moment with your eyes closed here to feel this energy opening up your throat chakra.
The throat is the bridge between the mind and the heart and it's ruled by the planet of Mercury.
Mercury rules Virgo and it's the alchemist.
It transforms ether or ideas into matter.
So it's potent energy on this Virgo full moon that brings a much needed earthly culmination to the astrological year.
This Pisces season and the last lunar cycle that started with the new moon in Pisces really brought a lot of focus to the unseen world.
With Neptune and Jupiter rulers of Pisces,
Both dreams,
Visions,
A focus on spirituality and with that you may have become detached from your body and seeking an escape from the worldly experience.
The moon in Virgo brings us down to earth and asks us to look at how we can purify or distill our dreams and our feelings into the physical.
Virgo and Pisces both want you to serve.
The question is how can you do this with authenticity?
There's also a grand earth trine happening at this time with Pluto,
The north node and the moon and it really supports this energy of transformation and healing through purification of our emotional and physical body.
It helps us move towards our destiny.
So I want you to think about the dreams that you have been focused on over this last lunar cycle and with that coming into your heart center,
Picture yourself standing in front of an ancient castle.
It's a warm and sunny spring day as you walk barefoot on soft bright green grass towards a stone castle nestled in the English countryside amongst blue skies and rolling green hills.
You take a deep breath of this fresh spring air and you notice the castle surrounded by a moat and you feel a sense of magic in the air of the lifetimes that have been lived here and the history of this place.
You hear birds singing and leaves rustling in the trees in the wind and as you slowly cross the moat,
A serene purifying and calming scent captures your attention.
You walk towards it and suddenly in the distance,
Rows of silver,
Green and purple appear before you on the ground as far as the eye can see.
You walk towards the rows of lavender slowly brushing your feet through the soft grass and the smell gets stronger and you feel a peace come over you.
You feel rooted into the earth and as you approach the rows,
You slowly meander between the plants and observe the bumble bees and the honey bees buzzing around the tiny purple flowers in a sea of silver,
Green and purple.
You crouch down to look at them more closely.
You observe the long silver leaves and tiny hairs on the plant and the vibrant lavender colour with the little petals shooting out of each bud and you watch the bees gently land on the flower buds buzzing from flower to flower.
You sit down gently on the soft grass beside a large bush with tons of bumble bees and you feel the earth beneath you,
Soft but sturdy and supportive.
You take a deep breath of the floral but woodsy and calming peaceful scent and you reach forward and carefully grab a stem with a single bud on it.
It's in perfect bloom without a single fault.
You carefully twirl it in your hands smelling its sweet,
Delicate and floral scent and listen to the bees buzzing around you and the leaves rustling in the wind and as you hold this lavender in your hands,
You close your eyes and you lay back in the soft grass amidst the lavender field.
You place this flower on your heart and you again feel the warmth and the support of the earth beneath you and the glow of the sun washing over you as you lay under the bright blue sky in this gentle breeze on a warm spring day.
And as this lavender stem rests on your heart,
You feel a gentle cooling lavender light appear.
It beams out from this little flower and it grows brighter and brighter and as it pulsates from the flower it spreads a feeling of calm and peace over your body.
From your heart,
The light in its perfect lavender color pulsates and grows bigger and spreads to your fingers and your toes and to the crown of your head washing over you with its purifying and calming energy.
And you rest here for a moment taking in its scent and this peaceful calm feeling.
Slowly you notice a concentration of this energy building just below your navel in your sacral chakra and it returns you back to that vision that you've been holding over this Pisces season that you've been called to since this lunar cycle.
What dreams have called to you in this Pisces season?
What dreams have called your mind into the clouds?
Are they authentic to you?
Does it stir a sense of pleasure in your sacral chakra where this lavender light resides?
Lavender is here to help you purify and transmute that dream into the physical realm.
An herb of mercury,
The alchemist,
Transmutes ether into earth and into matter.
So as you lay here holding that vision of your dream,
Bring it down to earth.
Feel this energy travel up through your heart where that lavender bud lays and into your throat.
Pulsing up this energy,
This lavender light from the sacral chakra to the throat and beaming it through,
Purifying,
Connecting you to your authenticity.
It's here to allow you to release any blocks you have from sharing your gifts with the world and being of service through that dream that you have envisioned.
It's allowing you to release any perfectionism that's stopping you from doing that,
From bringing vision into the physical realm.
It's helping you find the middle ground between having your head in the clouds and your feet firmly rooted on the ground.
And as you feel this energy flowing through your body,
You feel this lavender flower on your chest slowly dissipate into this cooling,
Calming,
And purifying light.
And it slowly dissolves and merges with your body to become a part of it.
The plant's spirit lives within you to help ground you and allow you to express your authenticity and to be of service to make your dream come true in the physical realm.
With this lavender energy,
You can be of service and help heal others by being authentically you.
With this plant spirit,
All that is inauthentic or hypercritical falls away.
Any self-criticism,
Over-perfectionism,
Over-analysis on the tiny details of daily life fall away so that you can actualize your dreams.
And this energy lives within you as it pulsates throughout your body and grounds you into the earth with a feeling of calm,
Peace,
And clarity.
And as you lay here listening to the birds and engrossed in this calming light,
You slowly come back to your breath.
You remember this feeling and you carry it with you through your day,
Through your evening,
Through the rest of your week,
A sense of lightness and purpose and alignment with your path and your authenticity.
You slowly start to wiggle your fingers and your toes,
Rotate your wrists and ankles,
And when you're ready,
Slowly blink your eyes open and come up to journal anything that might have come up during the meditation.
Thank you for joining.
Happy Full Women.
