When you set an intention,
The entire universe conspires to make it happen.
Ralph Waldo Emerson Let's begin by getting comfortable as much as we can,
Preferably in a seated position.
Close your eyes and focus on your breath.
Your breath is your anchor and the most powerful tool that helps your body relax and your mind settle.
Feel your body grounding into the earth with every breath you take,
Further and further.
Much like a lion resting in the savannah,
Feeling the solid ground beneath it.
Each breath connects you more deeply with the earth,
Anchoring you in the present moment.
As you continue to breathe deeply,
Imagine the invisible energy of the Leo new moon above you.
Though the moon is hidden from view,
Its powerful essence is still present,
Infusing the night sky with its gorgeous energy.
Visualize this invisible energy as a warm,
Golden light surrounding you,
Enveloping you in its powerful glow.
Feel its warmth and vitality infusing gently into every part of your being.
Take a moment to reflect on the qualities of Leo – courage,
Creativity,
Confidence and authenticity.
No matter which one your sign is,
Feel these qualities awakening within you,
Fueled by the golden energy of the new moon.
Imagine yourself embodying these traits,
Standing tall and proud like a lion,
Ready to take on the world with grace and much strength.
Silently repeat the following affirmations to yourself.
I embrace my inner strength and creativity.
I move forward with confidence and authenticity.
I am strong,
Graceful,
Resilient and elegant like a lion.
Now shift your focus to your intentions for this lunar cycle.
What do you wish to manifest in your life?
How do you want to grow and transform?
Visualize these intentions clearly,
As if they are already happening.
See yourself living your best life,
Aligned with the vibrant energy of Leo.
And this time,
Picture this energy filling your heart and then expanding throughout your body and touching every part of your being.
With each breath,
Feel this golden light strengthening your intentions and desires And allow this energy to flow through you,
Grounding your intentions into reality.
Now imagine yourself walking through a landscape bathed in the warm glow of the sun,
Symbolizing the hidden yet potent energy of the new moon.
You come to a serene open space,
Where you can feel the presence of the moon,
Even though it's not visible.
But you can feel that this space is filled with the essence of Leo,
Encouraging you to love and embrace your beautiful,
Authentic self.
I invite you to spend a few moments in this space,
Simply absorbing the energy of the new moon and all the best qualities of Leo.
Feel the renewal and transformation taking place within you.
Allow yourself to fully embrace the strength,
Creativity and confidence that are now awakened within you.
As the meditation comes to a close,
Bring your awareness back to the present moment.
Feel the ground beneath you and the air around you and slowly open your eyes,
Effortlessly carrying the powerful energy of the Leo new moon with you,
From my heart to yours,
With all my love and gratitude.
Namaste.
