Welcome to this rune chanting meditation to rebalance and align your chakras.
This is a practice for daily use,
Based on ancient Celtic and Germanic wisdom.
These civilizations believed that the world was made out of sound,
And the runes are a physical representation of these sacred frequencies.
With this practice you will connect to 7 different energetic points in the body,
Similar to the chakra system.
Each center has a rune connected to it,
With an energetic value and a meaning and also a resonance in the form of a chanted sound.
Make this practice your own and connect deeper to each rune by feeling,
Observing and listening to what comes up with each one.
I would suggest you practice this meditation regularly and make it part of your foundational practices for your well-being.
It will help you start or end your day with a clear energetic canvas.
It will also help you release any energy that is not yours or is blocking you,
And will leave you feeling clear and calm.
In this practice we move from top to bottom,
And the sounds we chant go from high to low as we move down.
You will quickly notice in which centers you might have a block if the sound is weak or short.
So if you're ready,
Let's begin.
I will ask you to remain seated for this practice.
Roll back your shoulders and open up your chest.
Relax the tension in your jaw,
On the back of your neck,
Your shoulders and your hips.
We will start by taking three deep breaths through the mouth,
Holding it at the top and releasing through the mouth with a sigh.
Take a deep breath in through the nose,
Welcoming the air into your body,
Pause,
Feel into it and let go through the mouth,
Relaxing your complete body.
Continue next deep breaths at your own rhythm,
Inviting this grounding relaxation into your body and slowly coming into presence.
Breathe in through your nose,
Welcome this air and send it through all those parts in your body that are tense and watch as you breathe out how this tension leaves your body.
Now from this stage you visualize roots of light growing down into the earth from the sole of your feet,
Anchoring you to the earth,
Connecting you with the roots of other trees and plants and beings.
Watch how your roots travel through the layers of sediment until it reaches the center of our earth,
Connecting to the crystalline core of our planet.
With every breath you bring this energy of the earth up into your body and feel how this grounding energy covers every part of your body,
Every cell.
Now from your crown and the top of your head,
Imagine a beam of light growing and widening as it grows up into the sky,
Growing above the clouds,
Outside the planet,
Along the stars and other planets and galaxies,
Traveling into the center of the universe,
Where you connect with a feeling of unity and universal love.
Here you're reminded of the seed of your soul and also this energy travels down into your body with your breath,
Covering every cell of your body with this universal love.
And from this place we will start with the first room chanting.
To chant take a deep breath in and emit the sound as you breathe out.
Focus on the top of your head,
The crown chakra,
Ruled by the rune Isa,
The rune of silence,
Going in words,
Ice and winter.
The sound is a nasal I,
Pronounced I.
Breathe in and as you breathe out,
Chant.
Hold as long as you feel and return back to your normal breathing.
Let's move down to your forehead where we find the rune known as Avas.
This rune represents a yew tree,
The magical tree of which the Celtics believed their three worlds would be born from.
They stand for connection and how you relate to the outer world.
The sound is a nasal I.
Breathe in through your nose and chant.
I keep on breathing and sense how you feel.
As we move to your throat,
Ruled by the rune Ansuz,
Which represents consciousness,
Truth and divine inspiration.
It embodies the power of the spoken and written word as well as the gift of effective communication.
The sound is an open mouth A.
Open your throat and breathe in.
Chanting.
Continue breathing.
As we move down to our heart center,
Ruled by the rune Jeda,
Which represents growth,
Expansion,
Transformation,
But also stands for life cycle and harvest.
The sound is a yay,
J.
Breathing in and chanting.
J.
Return back to your normal breathing and check in with how you feel.
Into the middle of our stomach,
Where we find our rune Avas.
Avas symbolizes materials,
Possessions,
Power,
Abundance and is also symbolized by the horse which symbolizes money.
The sound of Avas is a hey with an H,
So hey,
And is a lower sound.
So let's breathe in and chant.
Beautiful.
Return back to your normal breathing and sense the area of your stomach,
How it feels.
We move down into our navel area,
Where we find the rune Otala,
Which represents ancestral heritage,
Home and security.
It stands for the importance of our roots,
Both in our physical lineage and connection to the land we call home.
The sound is a deep O.
Let's breathe in and chant.
Keep on breathing.
Do you feel the resonance in your navel area?
Finally,
We move down into the end of our tailbone and pelvic area,
Where we find the rune Urus.
Urus was the genetical ancestor of the cow and Urus stands for your primal force.
Naturally,
The sound is a deep O,
Similar to the sound a cow makes.
We breathe in through the nose one last time.
And chant.
And return to your normal breathing.
Take a moment to sense how your body feels after these resonances travel through your body.
You can repeat the chanting as many times as you feel you need.
Take time to feel the energetics of each rune,
Work with them,
Bring them home close to you,
And bring back this knowledge to the now.
