Welcome to this guided meditation.
This guided meditation is for the new moon in Sagittarius.
The new moon invites us to pause,
To reflect and to set intentions for the cycle ahead.
Sagittarius,
Ruled by Jupiter,
Embodies expansion,
Wisdom and the spirit of adventure.
This is a time to dream big,
Seek truth and embrace growth.
For the collective,
This energy encourages us to step out of our comfort zones.
To challenge our limits and explore different territories,
Whether externally to travel or internally through self-discovery.
If you are a Sagittarius,
This is a particularly important time to align with your innate traits of optimism,
Curiosity and independence.
Use this meditation to harness your adventure spirit and channel it towards meaningful goals.
Now,
Take a comfortable position,
Either seated or lying down.
Close your eyes and let's begin this journey together.
Now,
Before we start,
Let's set a sankalpa,
A positive and heartfelt intention.
This intention will guide your energy throughout the new moon cycle.
Here are three options inspired by Sagittarius energy.
I welcome adventure and trust the path ahead of me.
I expand my mind and heart to new possibilities.
I am courageous,
Open and inspired by growth.
Take a few moments to choose a sankalpa that resonates with you the most.
If none feel quite right,
You're welcome to create your own.
Now,
Repeat your sankalpa silently,
Feeling its meaning sink deeply into your being.
Now,
Let's ease into a state of deep relaxation.
Begin by taking a deep cleansing breath in through your nose and as you exhale,
Let go of any tension or thoughts from the day.
Bring your attention to the top of your head.
Imagine a warm golden light,
Softly touching your scalp.
Feel this light melting away any tension,
Gently relaxing your forehead,
Your temples and your jaw.
Let your tongue rest softly in your mouth.
Allow this golden light to flow down your neck and shoulders.
Feel your shoulders drop,
Release the tension and let go of any tension.
Allow this golden light to flow down your neck and shoulders.
Feel your shoulders drop,
Releasing any burden or tightness you may be carrying.
With each exhale,
You feel lighter as though a weight is being lifted.
This light moves down your arms,
Softening your elbows,
Your wrists,
Your hands.
Notice any sensations in your fingertips and allow them to release fully.
Now,
Bring your awareness to your chest.
Feel the natural rhythm of your breath,
Rising and falling.
Imagine this golden light expanding with each inhale,
Filling your lungs and heart with warmth and peace.
Let the light travel to your abdomen and lower back,
Soothing every muscle.
Feel your hips sink deeper into the surface beneath you as they relax completely.
Guide the light down your thighs,
Your knees,
Your calves.
And with each exhale,
Let go of any lingering tension in your legs.
Finally,
Feel the warmth reach your feet,
Spreading into each toe.
You are now fully relaxed.
You are now fully grounded.
You are now fully at ease.
Stay here for a few breaths,
Simply enjoying this calm state.
Stay here for a few breaths,
Simply enjoying this calm state of being.
Now that you're relaxed,
Let's move into a vivid visualization,
Inspired by the energy of Sagittarius.
Picture yourself standing at the edge of a great open field,
Under a clear,
Starry sky.
The air feels cool and refreshing,
Filled with possibilities.
In the distance,
You see a glowing pot stretching out before you,
Illuminated by soft moonlight.
Take your first step onto the pot.
As you walk,
Notice the beauty around you.
The soft rustling of leaves,
The sparkle of stars above,
And the feeling of limitless space.
Along the pot,
You encounter symbols that resonate with Sagittarius energy.
Perhaps you see a bow and arrow,
Symbolizing focus and ambition.
You may notice a compass,
Representing guidance and exploration.
Take a moment to reflect on the meaning of these symbols.
As you continue,
The pot widens,
Leading you to a majestic hilltop.
From this vantage top,
You can see far into the distance,
As if the entire world is unfolding before you.
Feel the sense of expansion and opportunity in your heart.
This is your journey,
Filled with limitless potential and adventure.
Now take a moment to ask yourself,
What new experiences,
Ideas,
Or opportunities am I ready to welcome into my life?
Allow any answers or images to arise naturally.
And let your mind wander into a state of peace.
Allow any answers or images to arise naturally.
And when you're ready,
Imagine gently returning to the field,
Carrying the wisdom and inspiration that you've received.
Before we end this practice,
I want to share with you three tips to incorporate the energy of Sagittarius into your life.
First,
Practice gratitude for growth opportunities.
Each day,
Write down one thing you've learned or experienced that has expanded your perspective.
It can be big or small.
Second,
Try something outside your comfort zone,
Whether it's learning a new skill,
Visiting a new place,
Meeting new people.
Let yourself explore and take risks.
And finally,
Set a bold vision for the future.
Use Sagittarius' forward-thinking energy to plan a goal or adventure that excites you,
Even if it feels a little ambitious.
And now,
As we close this meditation,
Take a moment to come back to your Sankalpa.
Silently repeat it once more,
Allowing its energy to anchor in your mind and heart.
Bring your attention back to your breath.
Let your mind wander into a state of peace.
Allow any answers or images to arise naturally.
Inhale deeply,
Feeling energized and inspired,
And exhale while grounding yourself in the present.
Remain with your eyes closed,
And gently bring your knees into your chest and roll over to your right or left side,
Using one of your hands as a pillow for your head.
Take a moment to feel gratitude towards yourself for taking this time.
And then slowly,
With your eyes still closed,
Push yourself up into a meditative position.
And when you're ready,
Gently open your eyes,
Feeling renewed and ready to embrace the opportunity this new moon brings.
Thank you for joining this practice with me.
May the energy of Sagittarius guide you towards expansion,
Wisdom,
And joy.
Until the next time,
Namaste.
