Welcome to your full moon ritual meditation in the sign of Taurus.
This full moon in particular is also a lunar eclipse,
And eclipse season can be quite energetically draining,
So it is perfect that Taurus invites us to take a pause,
Indulge in our senses,
And let life be simple again.
So start by coming into a comfortable meditation position,
Whether that's seated with the spine long or lying down with your lower back supported.
If you'd like to pause me and take a moment to light up any candles,
Move yourself to a room where you can see the full moonlight,
Or tidy up your space,
Or even bring your crystals with you and have them charge in the moonlight,
Please feel free to do so.
And once you've settled into your ritual position,
Begin to close down the eyes and relax the face and jaw.
Feel into the grounding presence of gravity as your body relaxes into the earth.
Begin to clear the mind of anything that may be distracting you,
Anything that has happened earlier today or in the past lunar cycle.
Allow your thoughts to be clear and just settle into the present moment of this full moon.
Become aware of the breath.
Now see the full moon hovering at the crown of your head.
Inhale through your nose to begin,
And exhale,
See the moon move down the backside of your body.
The moon turns between your legs,
And inhale,
See the moon orbit up the front side of your body,
Meeting back at the crown of your head.
Exhale,
The moon orbits down your spine.
Inhale,
The moon orbits up the front side of your body.
Exhale,
The moon draws down.
Inhale,
See the moon float up past your chest,
Meeting back at the crown of your head.
Continue breathing,
Seeing the moon orbit around the vertical plane of your body.
With each mindful inhale and exhale,
Now connect with each of your physical senses.
Become aware of your sense of sight,
Sound,
Taste,
Smell,
And touch.
In this space of grounding into our senses,
Become aware if any one sense has been neglected or is in need of extra attention to fulfill its need.
Indulge in the simple luxury of having each of your senses,
One by one.
Experience the pure presence of them under the full moon.
Now allow the Taurus full moon to release what is no longer aligned with your life.
What fixed mindset are you ready to let go of?
What in your life has stopped you from attaining what you've desired?
Release the mental constructs that stop you from getting what you desire.
Let them simply float off the crown of your head and disappear into the moonlight.
Let the full moon shine light on your boundaries with time.
Where do you find resistance between pausing and staying in motion?
Why do you feel the need to race to the finish line?
Immerse fully in the moon's purifying light,
Feeling it amplify your desire for comfort and security.
Feel each ray of the pure white light cleanse and release any resistance in taking a pause in life.
Feel the moon beaming down into your body,
Suspending your soul in space and time.
Take this cosmic pause.
Send gratitude to the moon for her cleansing powers and for allowing you to harness her energy to receive cosmic wisdom.
Begin to close your ritual meditation by deepening your breath,
Driving the breath low and deep into the belly.
Notice the points of contact your body makes with the ground.
Feeling each part of your body gently awaken,
Slowly coming back to this plane of existence.
And when you're ready,
Gently open your eyes and journal on any insight you received during this full moon meditation.
Or continue on with the rest of your full moon ritual.
Thank you so much for joining.
I see and honor the light,
Love and gratitude in each and every one of you.
