Dark Moon Medicine Journey

Retrieving Your Vital Life Force Energy with a Dark Moon Ally.

Transcript

Sitting or lying comfortably,

Close your eyes.

Take a nice deep breath in and take another nice deep refreshing in and out breath.

Now simply rest,

Breathing at a normal pace.

As you breathe,

Feel the movement of breath through your body and notice the points where your body meets the chair or the cushion you sit on or where your body rests against the floor or mat that you lie upon.

Feel your hands resting on your body or on the floor.

Just notice,

Feel.

Now take another nice deep relaxing breath and begin a gentle scan of your body and feelings.

There are no rights or wrongs and there's nothing you have to change or do.

Just notice.

Slowly sweep with your awareness up from your toes through the length of your body and up to the top of your head.

As you scan,

Just notice what catches your attention.

Again,

There's no judgment,

Nothing you need to change or do.

If you notice any uncomfortable feelings,

Simply pay attention to where in your body you're feeling these.

For instance,

If you feel stiffness,

Pain,

Or sadness,

Where in your body do you feel these?

As other examples,

Is there an anxious feeling in the pit of your stomach?

Is there a fluttering in your chest?

Take some time to tune in and simply notice.

Continue breathing at a relaxed pace.

Now again take a nice deep breath in.

As you release this breath,

Allow the focus on your body to dissolve.

Just as your breath dissolves into the space all around you,

Let go.

Now take another deep breath in and out,

Allowing your body to grow heavy as the breath flows out,

Sinking more deeply into the cushion,

Chair,

Or floor.

And take a third rejuvenating breath and on the very next out breath,

Feel a nice sense of heaviness overcome your body.

Continue breathing at your own pace,

Releasing and relaxing a little more with each breath out.

Now remember or imagine a beautiful place in nature.

This could be a natural place you knew as a child,

A place you know now,

Or seen completely from your imagination.

You may find yourself sitting by the side of a swiftly moving stream,

Lying in a forest on a bed of soft pine needles,

Resting in a field of wild flowers,

Or lying on a hot sandy beach as the waves crash to the shore.

Wherever you are,

This place is sacred and beautiful and it's here just for you.

In this place you feel safe,

Comfortable,

And protected.

Take time to imagine that you lie or sit within this beautiful place in nature.

Really feel your sacred place.

Bring all of your senses to the experience.

Feel the temperatures,

For instance,

The penetrating heat of the Sun or cool air as it brushes against your skin.

Smell the air.

Taste the scent of the air.

Feel what your body sits or lies upon.

Notice the textures.

What are the sensations against your body and skin?

What do you see and what do you sense in your sacred place?

What are the details?

While resting in your sacred place,

Breathe with the qualities of healing,

Sacredness,

Comfort,

And safety.

Breathe these in and breathe them out.

Let these qualities flood through you with every inhalation,

Healing,

Safety,

Comfort,

Sacredness.

Then feel them radiate from you with the release of every breath.

The more you visit your sacred place,

The deeper your relationship with it will be.

Only goodness and beauty abide here.

Your sacred place ultimately lives within you.

Take time now to simply feel and be in your sacred place.

Take time now to simply feel and be in your sacred place.

Now take a nice deep and relaxing breath in and on the out-breath feel a pleasant sense of heaviness overcome your body and allow your sacred place to fade away.

Find yourself walking along a beautiful forested path.

Hear the birds singing,

Hopping through the underbrush all around you,

And flitting through the tree canopy above you.

Take in the rich forest scents and sounds.

Feel each movement of your body as you walk and the sensations of each barefoot you press against cool,

Damp forest floor.

On your walk you come upon a massive old growth tree.

Walk up to the tree,

Stand against its trunk,

And look up.

Gaze all the way up the trunk to the tree's broad leaves and branches.

Imagine reaching up with your arms,

Opening your palms and spreading your fingers to emulate this canopy as if your energetic fingertips can touch the highest branches and leaves.

Then bring your hands back down to rub your palms and fingers against the tree's trunk.

Feel the bark's texture.

Now bring your face close to the tree and smell it.

As you stand belly to the tree trunk,

Open your arms wide to embrace this gigantic grandmother tree.

Feel your love for her.

Feel her love flow into you.

Breathe.

Sense the grandmother's spirit.

Breathe.

Open your heart to her song.

Feel it vibrate through your body.

Spend some time with the grandmother.

Now as you stand close to the grandmother tree,

Allow yourself to sink down with your awareness into her root system just under the earthen floor.

Sense the rich subterranean space amidst her roots.

Now feel yourself drop from where you stand at the base of the tree down through the earthen floor and into this root space,

Finding a perfect cradle for your body to curl up within the weaving of roots under the earth.

Smell the rich earth.

Feel the breath of the grandmother tree.

Her deep and slow inhale and exhale as she takes in and expels earth energy and starlight.

Breathe with the grandmother.

Feel the healing energy of earth.

Feel informational light energy,

Starlight,

Cascade through you with every breath.

Sitting cradled amidst the grandmother tree's roots,

Breathing with this ancient nature being.

Feel a deep knowing stir within you.

Breathe with the love of this being.

Breathe comfort,

Healing,

Sacredness in and out.

Lying under the earth,

Breathing with the dark rich web work of roots.

Sense the grandmother's trunk loom above you,

Rising up from the earth to the heavens.

Feel her massive web work of leaves and branches spread out against the vast sky.

Sense how far and wide grandmother's love expands.

Feel the safe and sacred place where you lie beneath the gigantic form of this magnificent tree being.

Feel where your body touches her roots that weave all around you.

You are warm,

You're dry,

Comfortable.

The rich smells settle and relax you.

You sink deeper into relaxation with each breath.

Become aware of the whole right side of your body as you rest cradled in the roots.

Become aware of the whole left side of your body resting cradled within the roots.

Now bring your awareness to your whole body together as one,

Sinking heavily into the cradle of roots.

Feel this whole body as heavy and connected,

Deeply one with the earth.

Feel the sense of relaxation deepen.

Your body grows heavier against the warm and nourishing body of the earth.

Feel your left foot and toes loose,

Relaxed.

Notice your right foot and toes limp,

Relaxed.

Your left calf and left knee and now your right calf and right knee are soft,

Loose,

Relaxed.

Your left thigh and hip and now your right thigh and hip are loose,

Comfortable,

Relaxed.

Allow yourself from the waist down to hang loose,

Warm,

Relaxed,

Cradled in the nourishing root system under the earth.

Sense the deep feeling of comfort in the whole front side of your body.

Become aware of how relaxed the whole back side of your body is.

Bring your awareness to your body as a whole.

Feel your whole body relaxed and connected,

Dry,

Warm,

Cradled by the earth.

Now let lightness come over you.

Your spirit feels so light that you float up and out of your body that slumbers amidst the tree roots.

You float up from the roots and rise right up through the trunk of the grandmother tree.

You glide effortlessly,

Without resistance,

Feeling one with every fiber of this tree being as you move up her towering trunk.

As you rise up weightless into the branches and leaves,

You feel liberated,

Free.

You rise right up and out the top of the treetop into vast sky spaces.

You soar now free as a bird.

Feel and hear the wind howling through your hair.

Feel bird-like freedom as you soar weightless through the sky.

As you glide and look out you pass great vistas of land and waterways.

Eventually you fly over a long wide meandering river.

Feel the water tugging at you.

Feel the descent back to the earth.

Gazing down you watch the wide river and as you drift down and hover over the swiftly moving water you watch the river gleam black and rich like the night sky.

You instinctively drop softly onto the sandy shore and gaze at the deep forest that flanks the river's edge.

Looking to the trees you state dark ally appear.

Moments pass.

Finally a large creature slowly emerges from the trees.

It's for gleams rich and black like the river and the dark moon sky.

You feel this animal's power and its loving intention.

The fur that covers black jaguar appears as black and deep as the darkest abyss,

A portal to other worlds.

Its blue eyes shine like radiant orbs against the soft blackness.

Its eyes radiate light.

Gaze into these eyes.

Feel the deep profound love this ally holds for you.

Feel any fear merge with this profound love.

Your heart feels warm glowing.

Approach the being.

Climb onto its broad strong back.

Dig in your hands and fingers grabbing its luxuriously thick and shiny fur.

Feel the gravity that melds your body to the dark ally body like a magnet.

You ask take me back in time to retrieve my life force.

Black jaguar sets its powerful muscles in motion.

Feel its power as it bolts like lightning upstream along the river's edge racing backward through time.

As the river flows downward you and black jaguar travel against the current back into the past.

You are one with the dark allies intent to travel back to a time when your life force was shrouded.

This animal is your trustworthy guide.

Feel its resilience.

Feel its power.

Feel its loving intention.

When black jaguar stops along the bank,

Catch your breath and gaze for a moment at the swiftly flowing river to your right.

Dance for its flank the river on either side of the wide bank.

To your left a person steps out of tree shadows.

It is you.

Climb off black jaguars back and look at this person you from the near or distant past.

This child or person is not you now and you look from a detached perspective as an observer.

From a detached view sense the pain,

Grief,

Or the confusion or loss or anger of this person or child.

Take a moment to just notice without judging.

Standing near black jaguar you may intuitively sense or understand the circumstances of the pain that you're witnessing.

Just notice.

Know attachment.

Know that whatever you become aware of there's a reason for it.

See the energy form of the pain of the person standing before you.

What shape is it?

What color is it?

Simply notice.

You wait by the river's edge as the dark ally black jaguar slowly moves toward the younger you.

The dark ally speaks lovingly to your younger self.

You can't hear the words the animal speaks.

You only hear its soothing tones.

As you watch from a distance you see the person cry then begin to sob.

Black jaguar steps closer to embrace the younger you.

The person becomes enveloped within the warm furry body then dissolves into it,

Disappears.

Black jaguar gazes back at you with somber soulful eyes.

The animal lumbers over to the darkly shaded base of a large tree.

It gently rubs its back against the tree's trunk then slumps alongside it falling to the earth.

Black jaguar lies still upon the earth.

There is no sound.

There is no breath.

There is no movement.

There is no breath.

The magnificent being has died.

The air is dense with stillness.

Death.

You know instinctively to wait.

Wait.

Time passes.

Wait.

Eons pass.

Wait.

Wait.

Black jaguar gently stirs and raises its head.

Its body shudders as if waking from deep slumber.

The long muscular body quivers as the cat slowly rises to its feet.

Underneath the massive black body a child rests on a dry bed of soft giant leaves in a cradle woven of the tree's strong surface roots.

The young one lifts its head and rubs its eyes as if emerging from a dream.

The child's body is radiant.

As it looks towards you light emanates from its eyes.

Take a moment.

Gaze into these eyes.

Feel the light glow from your own eyes.

Feel the love flow between you.

Feel this love with your whole being and heart.

Notice the small silver crescent on the child's forehead.

Feel new moon silvery light shimmer from the center of your own forehead.

Black jaguar beckons you.

Accept the gifts your past self offers.

Take them back with you to the future.

You step closer to the younger you who reaches out a hand.

If it feels right for you extend your own hand back.

Take some time to be with this child.

Feel the love,

Goodness,

And power that flows from this child into you.

Breathe this into your whole being and heart.

Take some time.

Feel.

Now gently release your hand and thank this child for the gifts that were shared with you.

See your past self smile,

Eyes still gleaming.

Watch as this child playfully leaps to its feet then runs out of sight into the trees,

Disappears into the forest.

Black jaguar sits at your side.

Climb onto the dark allies back and firmly grasp with your palms and fingers.

It's thick shiny fur.

Feel the magnetic force pulling you to its back.

Feel sinewy muscles move hard and hot as black jaguar glides you downstream now back through time to the spot at the river's edge where you met the dark ally.

Feel a deep sense of peace renewal.

The cat stops and rests by the bank at the place you met.

It is panting but resilient.

Slide off its back and rest.

Take the next few moments to thank the dark ally for all the love and support that it's shown you.

Take your time.

The river flows swiftly by.

You rest and watch mesmerized,

Lost in the rich currents and whirlpools that gleam with silvery new moonlight.

You sense behind you as jaguar soundlessly disappears into the forest.

You know this ally is always there for you.

Feel its love.

Feel its power.

Watching a river eddy you gently slip into the cool swirling water.

You twirl in the current feeling deliciously wet,

Cool,

And cleansed.

The water is invigorating.

You spin in the eddy until you feel so free and weightless that you lift up and out of the river like a water spout propelled high into the sky.

You swirl in the air now supported by alive and compassionate winds.

They twirl you higher,

Higher until breezes and warm sun above you dry all the wetness from you.

Feel the penetrating heat of the sun on your face,

Arms,

And body.

Feel the sun's warmth,

Its healing fire penetrating deeply into your bones and muscles.

The winds drift you speedily across vast vistas of land and water.

You feel free as a bird.

You've never felt so alive and at peace.

As you speed along,

Look down upon familiar lands and feel the tugging of the grandmother tree calling you back.

A nice sense of heaviness begins to come over you as you drift downward again to the earth.

A beautiful green canopy spreads out beneath you like an emerald tapestry.

The grandmother tree is in sight.

Her weaving abounds,

Towers above other gigantic trees.

You drift like a feather down,

Down until you touch grandmother's leaves and branches.

You enter her great trunk and drift down,

Down,

Feeling sap and water and the fibers of this great tree being.

Feel the connection between her heart and your heart.

Drift down into the deep earth and space where you lie cradled by the tree's strong,

Dry roots.

Feel safety,

Sacredness,

Healing,

Comfort.

Breathe these qualities in and breathe them out.

Feel the places on your body where the roots cradle and touch you.

Notice the peace you feel in every part of your body and allow the grandmother tree to simply fade away.

As you arrive back in your sacred place,

Notice what's all around you in your sacred place.

Smell the smells,

Hear the sounds,

Feel the textures,

Temperatures,

And all the sensations against your skin and body.

Taste the scent of the air.

Breathe with the qualities of sacredness,

Healing,

Safety,

And comfort.

Breathe these in and breathe them out.

This sacred place lives within you.

Wherever you are,

You can take a nice deep breath and feel yourself in your sacred place.

Now allow the sensations and images of your sacred place to fade away,

Yet continue to feel the qualities,

Healing,

Safety,

Sacredness in your body and in the center of your heart.

Take a nice deep and cleansing breath.

And take another nice deep refreshing breath.

And before you open your eyes,

Sense and feel the four walls of the room all around you.

Become aware of where you sit or lie.

Feel where your body meets the cushion,

Chair,

Or floor.

Feel the contact points of your body against cushion,

Chair,

Or floor.

Completely come back into this room,

This time and space.

Coming back,

Coming back.

Make some gentle movements now and do some gentle stretching.

Wiggle your toes and fingers.

Now take the deepest in-breath that you can take and release your breath out into the space around you.

Coming back,

Coming fully back.

Take some time and when you're ready,

You can open your eyes and look around at everything in the room.

Look at the four walls.

Look at the ceiling,

The windows,

And furniture.

Take all the time you like to stretch and breathe to fully return back to this time and place.

With every breath,

Feel your life force renewed and know that Black Jaguar and Grandmother are with you always.

Feel your gratitude.

Feel your love.

Fantastic meditation that guided me on the journey that I needed most at the time. Thank you! 😁

An incredible journey. I feel renewed and refreshed. I am so very grateful to you for this meditation. ❤️🙏

Incredible journey. So grateful for the experience and where I was taken. 🙏🏻🦋🌸🌿🍄

What a divine and healing experience. Thank you 🙏🏻✨🌚

I personally liked the rhythms in the background. They helped to evoke the correct mood. It was incredibly healing to connect with each of the beings in this meditation. Very powerful, thank you 🙏

That was the most exquisite journey I have ever been on. The images and sounds were unbelievably freeing. I am so very grateful 🙏

Unexpectedly powerful journey to cleanse and re-connect with spirit energy. Thank you.

Wonderful journey with great visualization, very relaxing and easy to focus, thank you!! 🙏🏽

Wow! Thank you and blessings to you🙏

Loved it. Powerful and comforting. Some real magic. Make sure you leave yourself the full time and quiet space required so you can delve in.

After using this meditation gift a few times, I can honestly say there's a healing that comes from this I've never experienced before.
Thank you so much <3

That was an amazing experience. I feel relaxed and calm. Thank you!

Wow! Powerful 🙏🌈🧡 Thank you

Brilliant! I sit at sunrise beneath a massive, fir tree upon a bed of its soft needles overlooking the expanse of ice before me. An Eagle sores in the blue skies above. A gentle breeze whips my long black hair about my face. I feel deep stirrings within as I try to feel at peace with my Earth Mother. I see in the distance a snow leopard stealthily loping towards its prey, en then just as quickly she is gone. I stand, walk through the dense forest en from a thicket l stop to appreciate a magnificent stag, it's muzzle raised sniffing, twitching, alert to my approach. Eventually l find myself kneeling before Grandmother Tree. I have been following her gentle demand to enter her place of softness beneath the earth to bed within her soft root tendrils. Then as I listen to her wisdom she tells me a bedtime story. I must go in search of my spirit animal. M'Nunguai emerges from the dense foliage of the forest. My beautiful black leopard with her gleaming luxurious pelt. I stare back at her into my own ice blue eyes en l am beckoned to my past. I see little Moonbeam en remember the pain in childhood. She has lost her Mother en Father. She now must walk alone. Moonbeam rides with M'Nunguai to the Sacred Tree where she is reunited with the spirits of her parents. She is at last, afraid no more. She is free.
As I recognize the wisdom of Grandmother's lesson my spirit journey is awakened anew. I return along the river with M'Nunguai to meet my father spirit, the Eagle. l fly beneath his wings over lands to the tribe of my people. I am reunited with my tribe. Fast Eagle is proud of my endurance from childhood as l have survived alone, only to return home. Once more l am beckoned by the warmth of Grandmother Tree. "Moonbeam," she says, "you have grown into a beautiful strong woman. You have done well. Now you are set free. Go forth, your destiny awaits." This was a delicious journey. Thankyou for the experience. I shall come again. Namasté, Léna. ☺
