Hi,
My name is Dia and I'd like to welcome you to this meditation of creating sacred space and setting an intention.
In this meditation,
You will learn the ceremony of creating sacred space in your home and within.
You will learn how to set an intention using your feminine guidance system.
So,
Let's begin.
Whenever you embark on a journey,
You take time to prepare for it.
Creating a sacred space in your home is also like that.
You are preparing the space for you to embark on a spiritual journey.
Having a space that is dedicated just for yourself can have a tremendous impact on your spiritual practice.
This can be a contemplative space for you to enter the realms of your own silence and inner knowing.
It is a space to hold resonance and harmony.
And if you'd like,
You can create an altar that is a symbolic statement of your intent.
It can serve as a focusing device and you can decide how you'd like to decorate it.
What you place on your altar will get altered.
So think of what it is you'd like to place.
Allow yourself to be intuitively guided to objects,
Images,
Symbols,
Colors that resonate with your intention so it is vibrationally spoken.
See that the space remains uncluttered and invokes a sense of beauty.
Beauty can offer vibrational food for the divine but for anyone who enters the space.
Above all,
See that it is a place that you would like to return to over and over again.
And now let's move on to set an intention.
And in doing this,
We're going to call on the energy of the Great Mother as an archetype.
The energy of the Great Mother invites us to enter a place of stillness and enter the dark void of our own being so that we may see what is wanting to emerge.
In setting an intention,
You are planting a seed.
Whether it's an idea,
A dream,
A prayer,
Or a desire that is coming from deep within you from your womb space,
This is the feminine way of creating from being deeply attuned to the wisdom of your body and the desires of your heart.
Do not doubt whatever is arising.
It is the will of your heart and the will of the divine expressing through you and for you.
One of the best times to begin setting an intention is during the new moon when you can access the dark energies of the moon.
It's a natural time of going inward.
But you can also set your intention at any time you are ready to start something new.
So if you're ready,
You can go ahead and have a journal or a piece of paper and a pen ready.
Come to a comfortable position.
We will now go into a meditation to begin the process of setting the intention.
So let's take three deep breaths together,
Breathing in and breathing out,
Breathing in and breathing out,
Allowing your shoulders to soften,
Relaxing through the body and then taking another full body breath here,
Breathing in and exhaling,
Bringing your attention down towards your hips,
All the way down through the legs,
Soles of the feet and into the earth.
Allow yourself to land here on the solidness of the earth.
Allow yourself to settle into the embrace of the great cosmic mother.
Take a breath and feel your roots going all the way down into the earth as you connect deeper into the support that is available to you.
Breathe in this energy from the earth all the way up into your heart,
Down through your arms and out through your hands.
As you rest here,
Just being aware of whatever emotions may arise,
Giving them space to be here,
Coming into a wider,
Deeper center where all is welcome and all is held.
You are wide and deep and can hold the energies of all that you are feeling.
Connect to your inner resources.
Take a breath and breathe into your inner knowing,
Your wisdom,
A place where you have access to all your capabilities,
The place where you feel most at home with yourself.
From this place,
Begin to think about the journey you are embarking on,
This way of returning home to yourself,
Of honoring,
Of valuing the sacred mystery of your life.
Then asking,
What is it that you would like to receive?
What do you know is possible for you in this lifetime?
What could you create that aligns with your purpose,
That aligns with your desires?
What is wanting to emerge through you?
What would the universe like to see for you?
What is it that you are intending to receive?
And jotting down any words,
Making notes of any images that may arise for you.
And being with this process,
You may take it with you,
You may sit with it,
You may feel into it,
You may rewrite it,
But give yourself the opportunity to set a clear intention on where you are going and what you are desiring to receive,
To create,
And what is wanting to emerge through you.
And then when you're ready,
We're going to transition out of this meditation.
Begin by rotating your wrists,
Wiggle your toes,
And then take in a deeper breath.
Ah,
Opening your eyes if they were closed,
And arriving back to this here and now space.
And I thank you for joining me.
I look forward to our next time together,
And I send you much love and many blessings.
Thank you.
Namaste.
