Welcome,
Beautiful soul,
To this Libra New Moon Reiki activation.
Sacred Reciprocity.
Restoring balance,
Releasing overgiving,
And creating new agreements.
Today we gather beneath the quiet.
Receptive energy of the Libra Nuu.
A sacred pause,
A blank canvas.
A moment between what has been.
And what we are choosing next.
Libra invites us into relationship,
Love,
Partnership,
Harmony.
Fairness.
Balance.
Balance,
Giving,
And receiving.
But sometimes our desire to create harmony with others comes at a cost.
We become.
.
.
Accommodating.
We become agreeable.
We become responsible for everyone's feelings.
We say yes because no feels uncomfortable.
We keep the peace.
While quietly losing our own.
And eventually we may discover.
That the relationship most in need of restoration.
Is the relationship we have with ourselves.
So today we aren't asking.
How can I make everyone else happy?
We're asking.
How can I remain connected to others?
Without becoming disconnected with myself.
So this meditation is infused with Reiki healing energy.
So if you're open to receive,
Simply accept in your mind's eye.
And take a long,
Slow breath in.
And release.
Again,
Breathing in.
And letting go.
I invite you to place one hand over your heart and one over your belly.
And silently say.
I am ready to come back into balance.
Bring your awareness to the base of your spine.
Imagine roots beginning to expand downward from your body.
Through the surface beneath you.
Into the rich,
Dark earth.
Deeper and deeper.
Feel yourself being held.
Supported.
Anchored.
You don't have to hold yourself up all the time.
The earth is beneath you.
Take a breath.
And imagine earth energy moving upward through those roots.
Into your feet.
Your legs.
Your hips.
Up your spine.
Through your heart.
And repeat.
I am supported.
I am safe to have needs.
I am safe to receive.
As you arrive at your center.
Allow me a moment to connect with your energy.
I now invite the loving,
Intelligent energy of Reiki into this space.
May Reiki flow wherever it is most needed.
Through the physical body,
The emotional body,
The mental body,
And the energetic body.
Imagine beautiful white gold Reiki light entering through your crown.
Blowing through your third eye.
Your throat.
Down to your heart.
Your solar plexus.
Into your sacral chakra.
And your route.
And down into the earth.
There is nothing you need to accomplish here,
Nothing you need to fix.
Simply allow yourself to receive.
Now imagine yourself walking along a beautiful path.
Autumn trees surround you.
Golden,
Amber,
Red.
Rust.
Leaves drift gently toward the ground.
Ahead you see a beautiful stone temple.
Above the door is a symbol of the scales.
Walk towards it.
The doors open.
And you step inside.
At the center of this temple is an enormous golden scale.
And somehow you understand.
These scales represent your life.
You walk closer.
On one side is everything you give.
Begin seeing it appear.
Your time,
Your attention.
Your energy,
Your love,
Your work.
Your caregiving,
Your advice.
Your emotional support your problem solving.
Your responsibilities.
The times you say yes.
The times you stepped in.
The times you carried something because nobody else would.
Notice now how much you've given.
Honor it.
There is nothing wrong with your generosity.
But now look at the other side.
This represents what you've received.
Support.
Care,
Rest.
Help,
Love,
Attention.
Nourishment,
Joy,
Pleasure,
Time.
Understanding.
Reciprocity.
Look at your scales.
What do you notice?
Don't change anything about it yet.
Simply see.
And ask.
Where have I confused overgiving with love?
Then ask.
Where have I confused exhaustion with worthiness?
And finally,
Where have I abandoned myself in an attempt to maintain harmony?
Allow whatever arises to be seen.
Now notice several objects appearing at your feet.
Each represents a pattern you may have carried.
Perhaps you see one labeled,
People-pleasing.
Another.
Keeping everyone happy.
Another.
Fear of disappointing others.
Avoiding conflict.
Over explaining.
Fixing,
Rescuing.
Doing it myself.
Guilt.
Being the strong one.
Putting myself last.
You don't need to have all of these.
Notice which ones feel familiar.
Pick up just one.
And ask.
When did I learn that this was necessary?
Don't force a memory.
Maybe an answer comes.
Maybe it doesn't.
Simply honor that at some point.
This pattern may have helped you.
Perhaps it helped you belong.
Feel safe.
Avoid conflict.
Receive love.
Feel needed.
Survives something difficult.
Just hold it gently.
Insane.
Thank you for protecting me.
But I am allowed to choose differently now.
Place it onto the earth.
And do the same with any others that You're ready to release.
One by one.
No anger.
No shame.
Just release.
Imagine violet and golden reiki light surrounding everything you've placed down.
Watch the old patterns dissolve.
People-pleasing guilt.
Over responsibility,
Self-abandonment.
Fear of saying no.
The belief that everyone else's comfort is your responsibility.
Allow the Reiki to transform it.
Take a breath.
And say,
I release responsibility.
For maintaining peace at the expense of my own peace.
Again,
I release responsibility.
For maintaining peace at the expense of my own peace.
Feel your shoulders soften.
Your jaw relax.
Your belly released.
Now bring both hands over your heart.
Imagine beautiful green and pink reiki light filling your chest.
And ask.
What would love look like?
If I didn't have to abandon myself to give it.
Pause and let your heart answer.
Now repeat.
I can love deeply and still have boundaries.
I can care deeply and still honor myself.
I can support others without carrying them.
I can remain compassionate without becoming responsible for everyone.
Let the Reiki flow.
Move your awareness to your throat.
Imagine beautiful blue reiki light.
Think about all the things you've wanted to say,
But swallowed.
The no that became yes.
The boundary that didn't express.
The help you didn't ask for.
The need you hoped someone would notice.
The trust you softened so nobody would be uncomfortable.
No judgment.
No judgment.
Place one hand over your throat.
And say.
My needs deserve a voice.
Again.
My needs deserve a voice.
Now ask.
What have I been afraid to say?
Listen.
You don't necessarily have to say it today.
But you can begin by admitting it to yourself.
Now return to the golden scales.
Look at the receiving side.
Turn both palms upward.
And imagine Reiki beginning to pour into your hands.
This time,
Don't redirect it.
Don't give it away.
Don't immediately think about who else needs it.
Received.
Let it travel through your arms into your heart.
Through your belly.
Down your legs.
And through your entire body.
Repeat.
I receive without guilt.
I receive without owing.
I allow myself to be supported.
Notice whether this feels comfortable.
And if not,
Simply breathe.
Receiving is a practice.
Now notice a beautiful table appearing inside the temple.
On it rests a parchment.
Across the top.
My sacred agreement with myself.
Walk towards it.
Pick up a pen.
And ask.
What will I no longer abandon within myself?
To maintain a relationship with someone else.
Listen.
Perhaps it's my health.
My truth.
My boundaries.
My dreams.
My values.
My time.
My peace.
My intuition.
Write your answer.
And now ask.
What am I willing to give myself consistently?
Perhaps it's rest.
Compassion.
Nourishment,
Time,
Movement.
Honesty.
Space.
Creativity.
Love.
And finally.
.
.
What am I ready to receive?
Support.
Love.
Help.
Abundance.
Partnership.
Respect.
Write whatever comes.
At the bottom of the parchment are the words.
I promise not to disappear from my own life in order to belong to someone else's.
If those words resonate,
Sign your name.
The temple door opens.
Someone is standing outside.
It is you.
A future version of you.
She gives,
But she doesn't deplete herself.
She loves,
But she doesn't abandon herself.
She helps,
But doesn't rescue.
She has boundaries.
Without believing,
Boundaries make her unkind.
She asks for what she needs.
She receives.
She rests.
She knows that her worth isn't measured by how much she carries.
You walk toward her.
Look into her eyes.
And you ask.
What did you stop doing to change everything?
Listen.
Ask,
What did you finally allow yourself to receive?
Listen.
And finally.
.
.
What boundary brought you back to yourself?
Receive her answer.
She places one hand over your heart.
One over your solar plexus.
Reiki flows between you.
And slowly she merges with you.
Her wisdom isn't outside of you.
It has always been within you.
You return to the scales one final time.
Beautiful reiki light begins flowing through both sides.
Giving.
Receiving.
Self.
And other.
Connection.
Autonomy.
Love.
Boundaries.
The scales slowly move toward center.
Not perfectly.
Not permanently.
Because balance isn't easy.
A destination.
It's something we continually return to.
Repeat.
I belong in balance of my own life.
Repeat slowly.
I am worthy of reciprocal love.
I am worthy of support.
My needs matter.
My peace matters.
My time matters.
My energy matters.
I communicate what I need.
I allow others to show up for me.
I release responsibility for everyone's happiness.
I release the need to earn love through overgiving.
I can say no and remain loving.
I can create boundaries and remain compassionate.
I give from fullness rather than depletion.
I receive without guilt.
I trust myself within my relationships.
I no longer disappear to create harmony.
I create relationships that honor me,
Too.
I create harmony without abandoning myself.
I choose sacred reciprocity.
Take a deep breath.
Let those words settle.
And now,
Nothing to do,
Nothing to visualize,
Nothing to release,
Nothing to understand.
These next few minutes.
Practice the very thing we've been exploring.
Received.
Let the Reiki flow wherever your body,
Heart,
And spirit need it.
You don't have to direct it.
You don't have to earn it.
Simply receive.
Slowly bring your awareness back.
Imagine yourself leaving the temple of balance.
Outside is rich,
Dark earth.
In your hand is a tiny seed.
The seed represents the new relationship you're creating with yourself.
Place it into the earth.
Cover it gently.
Place your hand over the soil and say.
I will not abandon myself.
I will listen to myself.
I will honor myself.
I will care for myself.
I will allow myself to receive.
And finally.
.
.
I choose a relationship with myself built upon love,
Trust,
And respect.
Imagine Reiki flowing into the seat.
Trust that you don't need to force it to grow.
You simply need to nurture it through the choices you make.
Bring one hand to your heart and one to your belly.
Ask one final question.
If I truly believe my needs mattered.
As much as everyone else's.
What would I do differently?
Pause and receive the answer.
That may be your Libra New Moon intention.
Take a deep breath in.
And slowly release.
Begin moving your fingers and your toes.
Feel the Earth beneath you.
Feel yourself returning.
And when you're ready.
Gently open your eyes.
Welcome back beautiful soul.
This new moon isn't asking you to stop loving others.
It's asking you to include yourself in the equation.
To give and receive.
To listen and speak.
To compromise without disappearing.
To love without abandoning yourself.
And perhaps the new beginning you're planting beneath this Libra New Moon.
Isn't a new relationship at all.
Perhaps it's a new way of being in every relationship you already have.
Beginning with the one you have with yourself.
I give with love.
I receive with openness.
I honor my needs.
I trust my boundaries.
I belong in the balance of my own life.
And so it begins.
Namaste.
