Welcome back.
In today's meditation we'll use shamanic dreaming to meet the sage archetype of the planet Jupiter,
However they appear to you.
We all have Jupiter and its two home signs Sagittarius and in traditional astrology Pisces in our natal charts.
Even if you don't have any planets in Sagittarius or Pisces,
Their energy still exists in your natal chart too.
In Roman mythology,
Jupiter was the chief deity.
In Greek mythology,
His counterpart is Zeus.
He ruled over the skies,
Wielding lightning,
Overseeing all sacred oaths.
In the solar system,
Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun.
The planet itself pulls space debris into its gravitational field,
Protecting the inner planets from outside harm.
Jupiter in our natal chart points to where we find God or find meaning,
Faith,
Hope,
Optimism,
Beliefs,
And where we expand and attract abundance most naturally.
Even if it feels difficult to connect with the energy of Jupiter,
It's there.
We naturally have a relationship to the sage archetype.
Think of a deep belief you hold within you.
Even if that belief is that we can trust in science,
That's still a belief.
Or maybe it's that the world is full of magic.
There's a part of you that refuses to give up believing that things could be better,
Or that people are essentially good,
Or that your life has some kind of innate meaning.
These sorts of thoughts patterns are Jupiter at play.
The part of you that takes your life experiences and crafts wisdom from them is also related to how Jupiter is placed in your natal chart.
How you connect with Jupiter,
Or your inner sage,
Will certainly be influenced by where it is in your chart,
And what kind of communication it is in with other planets.
But it's there,
Helping you along in your life journey.
We're going to use shamanic dreaming to come into contact with your inner sage,
Your own personal Jupiter expression.
I want you to relax,
Taking several deep breaths in and out together.
Breathe in,
Hold,
And release.
Come into the present moment and into your body.
Let go of outside thoughts.
Breathe in again,
And to wherever you're feeling the most sensation in your body.
And let it out with a sigh.
Last time,
Breathe in together,
Hold at the top,
And let it go.
Allow your mind to make space for the visualization to happen.
Set an intention to meet your inner sage.
Hold it in your heart.
Breathe into it,
And then let it go.
Close your eyes,
And imagine you're in a lush forest.
Feel the earth beneath your feet.
Look around you,
And up at the sky,
Down at the ground.
What do you notice?
What kind of forest are you in?
What season is it here?
What plants are around you?
Sounds,
Animals,
Smells?
What's the weather like,
And what time of day is it?
There seems to be a sense of magic in this forest.
How does recognizing that feel in your body?
You notice a pathway through the forest and start walking on it.
In the distance you can hear running water of a creek or a river.
The path seems to be leading you toward the water.
What is this path like?
Are there any obstacles in your way?
Does it seem like it's been heavily tread upon,
Or like there haven't been many visitors?
As you follow the path,
You come to a large pond with a waterfall feeding into it.
What does it look like?
Is the water from the fall coming in fast or gently?
Is it tall or shorter?
Do you notice anything around the pond?
Animals,
Beings,
Or plants?
Things,
Energies?
You notice that in the center of the pond there is a shrine.
On the shrine is a never-ending fire.
Even with all the water surrounding it,
The fire never goes out.
What does the shrine look like to you?
Is it decorated?
What kinds of materials is it made of?
You wade into the pond,
Coming to about knee-deep.
You sit in the water,
Comes up to about your chest,
Gently lapping around your body.
You stare into the fire on the shrine at the center of the pond.
In the fire,
You begin to see visions of your belief systems,
The philosophies that inform your life.
You see all of your potential,
Your dreams come to life.
You allow yourself to feel hope for these things,
To feel deeply in your body what it would feel like to accomplish your dreams for your future.
What comes up for you?
Is there any resistance to allowing yourself to hope and dream?
Do some dreams have more resistance than others?
The fire shifts and shows you where you need to believe in yourself more.
It shows you how strong and capable you truly are.
What does it show you?
How does that look?
How does it feel?
Where in your body do you feel it?
You look away from the fire and notice there's another being sitting in the water next to you.
This is your inner sage,
Your inner knowing,
The one who keeps your hopes and dreams and optimism along with all the wisdom you've accumulated over the years of your life.
What do they look like?
What does their energy feel like?
Your inner sage has something they want to tell you.
Listen to what they have to say.
I'll be silent for a while to give you time and space to receive this message and ask any questions you may have to your inner sage.
Now it's time to leave this space.
Thank your inner sage for coming to meet you.
Know that you can come back here anytime or tap into this energy whenever you want.
Make your way back to the same way you came to the pond,
Back to the part of the forest you arrived in.
Has the path changed at all?
Come back into your body.
Take a deep breath.
Wiggle your fingers and toes.
Take some time to let the messages you receive from your inner sage to sink in.
Maybe write down anything that feels important to remember.
You are capable of expansion.
You are worthy of good things happening to you.
You understand and have more wisdom than you think you do and it can be trusted.
Thank you for going on this journey with me.
I'm wishing you peaceful ease for the rest of your day from my corner of the universe.
