Welcome to this full moon meditation.
The March full moon,
Often referred to as the worm moon,
Marks the time when the earth begins to warm up,
Allowing earthworms to emerge from the soil.
This signals that spring is near,
And with it,
The end of winter's darkness.
The Virgo full moon encourages us to focus on renewal,
On finding order,
And bringing clarity into our lives.
Nature is stirring,
Waking up to a new life,
A perfect reminder that this is the time of renewal,
And we can use the energy of the full moon to release the old and welcome fresh beginnings,
Just as the world around us begins to awaken.
Take a moment to settle in by finding a really comfy position,
Close your eyes if you haven't already,
And begin to bring your attention to your breath.
Breathe in deeply,
Holding the breath for a moment at the top,
Then gently exhale.
Let your breath deepen with each inhale and exhale,
Feeling your body relax and soften with every breath.
Really try to ground yourself in the present,
Really try to disengage with everything that has happened so far today,
And everything that is to come,
And really focus on this moment,
This time you are dedicating to your well-being.
Picture yourself standing at the edge of a calm,
Peaceful river at night.
The moonlight is shining down,
It's illuminating the water,
And you feel its cool,
Comforting presence.
There is a quiet stillness in the air,
And you are completely present,
Connected to the earth beneath you,
And connecting to yourself with each breath you take.
Imagine what you might be able to smell by this river,
What you might be able to hear,
And what you might be feeling in this peaceful place.
As you gaze at the flowing water,
Allow yourself to connect with the energy of the Virgo full moon.
Virgo is a sign of practicality,
Of service,
Of balance.
It is an earth sign that helps us find order,
Clarity,
And healing.
This moon is here for you to reflect on what needs releasing,
And what needs nurturing in order to restore balance in your life.
Take a moment to think about what you want to release.
What is it that no longer serves you?
What have you been holding onto that weighs you down?
You might have an idea now of what you want to release with the Virgo full moon.
See it clearly in front of you.
Make it as visual as you can.
Imagine gently taking these thoughts or feelings or situations into your hands like small stones.
Feel the weight of these stones and the energy they carry.
Take a step closer to the river in front of you.
As you stand by the water's edge,
Notice the gentle current flowing by.
This is the current of life,
Of your life.
The water sparkles under the moonlight and it is silently whispering for you to release.
One by one,
Place these stones into the river and watch as they float away.
See them carried by the current,
Floating farther and farther from you.
With each item you release,
You begin to feel lighter,
As though a huge weight is being lifted from your shoulders,
From your heart and from your mind.
Watch the water carry what you have released downstream,
Knowing that they are no longer yours to carry.
What a relief.
Feel that relief as the river takes them far away,
Cleansing and purifying your energy.
Take some deep breaths here,
Exhaling any fears and doubts you have left.
As you release,
Notice how much more space there is within you,
How much lighter and freer you feel.
Now stand for a moment at the river's edge and let the stillness of the scene wash over you.
Notice how calm and balanced the water is.
Imagine the energy of Virgo,
Represented by the earth's grounded nature,
Reflecting the harmony and balance that is now entering your life.
Feel the energy of order,
Of clarity and renewal entering your mind,
Body and spirit.
You are grounded and centered,
With renewed clarity and peace.
Notice how amazing that feels.
Connect to that energy and make a promise to yourself now to come back to this space whenever you need to.
As the river continues to flow,
So too does your life.
The seasons will shift,
And so will you.
With each cycle,
You grow and evolve.
And just as the earth is waking up from its winter slumber,
You too are awakening.
Spring is nearly here,
And with it comes the promise of new beginnings.
Take a final deep breath in,
Feeling the freshness of this new energy filling your body.
And exhale slowly,
Letting go of anything that still feels heavy.
When you're ready,
Slowly begin to bring your awareness back to the present moment.
You might want to introduce some movement into your body,
By wiggling your fingers and toes,
Or having a gentle stretch.
When it feels right,
Very slowly open your eyes.
Carry with you the peace,
Balance and clarity of the full moon in Virgo.
Knowing that you have released what no longer serves you,
Making space for new growth and renewal.
Thank you for joining me in this guided meditation.
