Take a moment to arrive,
Let your eyes close gently and allow your breath to settle into its own natural rhythm.
There's nothing you need to do right now,
Nothing for you to figure out.
Just give yourself this space to pause,
To be here and to breathe.
With each breath out,
See if you can let go of any tension you might be holding around your jaw,
Your shoulders,
Your belly.
Slowly,
Just let your body soften.
This new moon in Gemini meditation is going to gently ask you to connect with your inner voice and welcome in new ideas.
As always with me,
I'm going to ask you to be present and not to force anything.
Just ground yourself here and really listen to what comes up.
Gemini teaches us that inspiration can come through lightness,
Curiosity and play.
Just as some farmers follow the lunar calendar to plant their crops,
We use the new moon as a time for sowing new seeds.
Not the kind you can see yet,
But the kind you can sense.
Ideas forming in the dark,
Like roots beneath the surface.
As you breathe,
Imagine you are sitting beneath a sky full of stars.
The moon is new and hidden from view,
But you can feel its quiet pull and you feel that it is asking you to go inward.
To really listen to yourself.
The world can feel very noisy,
Especially right now,
So we need to embrace any opportunity there is to sit with ourselves and listen.
There's a stillness to this moment,
A chance to begin again.
Let yourself rest in that possibility.
What of this moment the new moon is giving you is a doorway.
A space for a new thought,
A new idea,
A new chapter.
Bring your awareness to the space between your eyebrows,
To your third eye chakra.
This is your doorway of intuition.
I want you to imagine a beautiful blue light beaming out from that space between your eyebrows.
Breathe into that space gently,
Without any pressure to feel anything at all.
Just notice what arises.
You don't need to have all the answers right now,
But just allow some space for these questions.
What's ready to come through me now?
What wants to be expressed?
What idea has been whispering,
Waiting for me to hear it?
Gemini reminds us that we are always in communication with other people,
With the world,
With our own deeper wisdom,
With nature.
And it is always worth listening to the quiet nudges that we receive.
That sense of knowing that isn't logical,
But somehow feels right.
Come back to this space sitting under the stars now,
And feel the air around you.
Gemini is an air sign,
Light and shifting,
Just like wind through trees.
Let this element help you clear what's no longer needed.
Imagine air moving through your entire body,
Getting you ready to set your intentions with this new moon.
I'm going to give you some time now to think about what you would like to call in.
This might begin to feel like a spark,
Or a tiny thread of inspiration,
A feeling,
A word,
An image.
Don't chase it,
Just notice.
Gemini energy is about curiosity and openness.
Being willing to explore ideas without needing all the answers.
Trusting your thoughts,
Your voice,
Your path.
It's about knowing that you don't need to have all of the answers before you can take the first step.
Take a deep breath in,
And as you breathe out,
Imagine your body becoming more open,
More receptive.
Let yourself really enjoy this space,
Let it feel light.
Ask yourself now,
What is one thing I can do to move these intentions I have just made into reality?
What if it came from a place of joy and of play?
What might that look like?
Picture your intention,
Or intentions,
Like a small colourful kite soaring gently on a fresh breeze.
It rises easily,
Catching the air,
Moving freely yet purposefully in the sky.
As we come to the end of this meditation,
I want to remind you that new inspiration will find you when the conditions are right.
So take care of your mind,
Your body and your spirit.
Treat yourself with love and care,
Just as you would a plant that you nurture.
Slowly bring your awareness now back to your body,
To your breath,
To the space that you're in.
When you're ready,
Gently open your eyes.
Try to carry this light,
Open and curious energy with you.
Let new ideas come as they will,
You don't have to chase them.
They'll arrive when you're ready to hear them.
