New Moon,

Yoga Nidra for Kameshvara.

Prepare for the practice of Yoga Nidra by lying on your back in Shavasana.

If Shavasana is not appropriate,

You can sit on a chair or on the floor,

Perhaps with your back against the wall.

Take whatever position your mind,

Body and spirit tell you is an appropriate position for your guided relaxation practice today.

Relax your hands and body with the palms facing up for receiving or down for grounding.

Eyes can be closed or open with a soft gaze if you're tired or depressed.

Slowly inhale and exhale through the nose.

As you inhale,

The belly rises.

As you exhale,

The belly falls.

Completely relax the body from head to toe.

Relax all organs,

Muscles,

Bones,

Cells,

Nerves.

Everything is completely relaxed.

On the inhale,

Inhale positivity,

Goodness,

Happiness,

Joy and serenity.

On the exhale,

Exhale negativity,

Anxiety,

Stress and tension.

Feel more and more relaxed.

Any thoughts coming in the mind,

Acknowledge and then let go.

Let the universe take care of you.

Tonight the moon is new.

It's the dark disk of the moon.

This is the time when the moon is situated between the earth and the sun and the illuminated part of the moon faces the sun and the dark side faces the earth.

Tonight the moon is named Kameshviri.

Kameshviri comes on the first night of the waxing moon.

She comes when the moon is completely new.

She is the goddess of desire and a form of Lalita.

Take a deep breath in and on the exhale say desire and do this at least two more times.

Kameshviri's moon is one of new beginnings,

Fresh starts and rebirth.

When the moon is new,

It makes a connection with the sun.

This convergence creates a tremendous force.

The powerful combination of the sun and the moon's energy helps our wishes come true.

This is why we set intentions at the new moon.

The new moon represents rebirth,

Renewal and new beginnings.

It is during the new moon that we should begin new projects and activities.

The energy of this moon assures us that they will be completed with success.

The new moon is a time for introspection and looking within.

Imagine a pitch black night sky with no lights.

The dark sky of tonight's new moon.

See the body suspended like a constellation that has not yet been illumined.

A dark constellation that is suspended in the sky.

The constellation that is suspended in the sky is the body.

A body part will be named and when it is named,

Place a star on that body part,

Leaving it to twinkle there.

Place a star on the right hand thumb,

Index finger,

Middle finger,

Ring finger,

Pinky finger,

Palm of the hand,

Back of the hand,

Wrist,

Forearm,

Stars at the elbow,

Upper arm,

Armpit.

Place stars at the side of the right rib cage,

Right waist,

Right hip,

Stars at the upper leg,

Kneecap,

Lower leg,

Ankle,

Heel,

Instep,

Stars at the sole of the foot,

The top of the foot,

The right big toe,

Second toe,

Third toe,

Fourth toe,

And fifth toe.

And now the whole right side of the body is twinkling and filled with stars.

And bring the stars to the left side of the body and place the twinkling star on the left hand thumb,

Index finger,

Middle finger,

Ring finger,

And pinky finger.

Stars at the palm of the hand,

Back of the hand,

Wrist,

And fifth toe.

And now the whole left side of the body is twinkling and filled with stars.

Stay awake and aware and place a new moon,

Tonight's moon,

The dark disk of the moon at the top of the head,

A crescent moon at the forehead,

A half moon at the throat,

A full moon at the heart center,

A half moon at the navel,

A crescent moon at the sacrum,

And a new moon at the tailbone,

And now see the body twinkling and filled with moons and stars.

See the body twinkling and filled with moons and stars,

And now release the moons and stars into the sky,

Into the universe,

Knowing that they're there to watch over you,

And also knowing that we're beings of light and we're made of star stuff.

And now let go of the body rotation and bring awareness to the breath.

Bring awareness to the natural breath,

Breathing easily and naturally,

Not trying to change anything.

Cream is the most powerful mantra to connect to the divine mother.

It is considered on par with Aum for the goddess.

It refers to the cosmic heart and can be used for all names and forms of the goddess.

Cream is pure undifferentiated consciousness and the creative power of the infinite creator.

Each letter of the mantra Cream represents the different stages of manifestation from the formless to the subtle body to the physical body.

All these stages together are the goddess.

Chanting Cream will align you with Lalita Devi,

A primordial creativity and the power to manifest the vision of the heart.

Cream increases our aspiration and receptivity to divine light,

Wisdom and truth.

Its pure vibration also has the ability to heal us.

Begin inhaling thinking Cream and exhale thinking Cream.

H R E E M or H R I M inhale thinking Cream and exhale thinking Cream.

Stay with the practice of mentally chanting Cream.

Continue to mentally chant Cream.

Now let go of the practice of chanting Cream and come back to natural breathing.

Bring awareness to the Chitakash,

The mind screen in front of the closed eyes.

Bring awareness to the Chitakash,

The mind movie.

Notice if there are any patterns or colors there.

Bring awareness to the Chitakash,

The mind space in front of the closed eyes and in that space see Kamishvari,

The goddess of desire.

She shares her soft merciful smile with you.

She is the color red like 10 million dawn suns.

A crescent moon rests at her eyebrow center.

She's adorned with a diadem of rubies.

She wears necklaces,

Belts and rings.

She has six arms and three eyes and in her hands she holds a bow made of sugarcane,

Flowering arrows,

A noose,

A goad and a nectar filled bejeweled cup.

One of her palms is face up in Virata mudra indicating her readiness to grant favors or offer gifts.

Her five arrows symbolize the desires of longing,

Maddening,

Kindling,

Enchanting and wasting.

She asks you,

What are your personal desires tonight?

What would you like to share with her or ask her on her personal phase of the moon?

How do the desires of longing,

Maddening,

Kindling,

Enchanting and wasting fit into your life at this moment?

Take some time to talk with Kamishviri,

The goddess of desire,

This lunar nitya aspect of Lalita.

You're welcome.

And now say goodbye to Kameshvara.

Let her fade into the Chitakasha.

Knowing that you can meet her later tonight,

Perhaps before you go to bed or next month on the new moon.

And now bring awareness back to the Chitakasha,

The mind space in front of the closed eyes and let go of the visualization practice.

And become aware of the natural breath.

Bring awareness to the natural breath.

As you inhale,

The belly rises.

As you exhale,

The belly falls.

Inhale belly rises.

Exhale belly falls.

And on the inhale,

Inhale positivity,

Goodness,

Happiness,

Joy,

And serenity.

And on the exhale,

Exhale negativity,

Anger,

Anxiety,

Stress,

And tension.

And on the inhale,

Inhale the waxing moon and all its forms and phases.

And on the exhale,

Exhale the waning moon and all its forms and phases.

And let the universe take care of you.

And see once more the moon goddess supporting,

Guiding,

And blessing you.

And begin to wiggle the fingers and the toes.

Roll the wrists and ankles one way.

And then the opposite direction.

And take any kind of intuitive movement the body is asking for.

Be mindful of your environment.

And then find yourself in a fetal position lying on the left side.

Letting the right nostril be open to begin to energize you.

Breathing in and out with awareness.

Bring awareness to that right nostril and the right nostril breathing.

Perhaps closing off the left nostril with a finger.

And breathe with the mouth closed through the right nostril.

And now let go of the nostril and say some words of kindness mentally to yourself like good job or I love you.

If this is difficult to do,

Imagine speaking to yourself as a small child.

Or imagine you're channeling the voice of a beloved ancestor.

And they are speaking to a younger version of yourself.

And when you're ready,

Push yourself up to a comfortable seated position with the palms at the heart center and Anjali mudra.

Or you can use any other mudra that you've learned that feels appropriate for tonight's practice.

Maybe yoni mudra,

Shakti mudra,

Ita mudra.

And join me for the chanting of cream for Lalita Devi will take a deep inhale and on the exhale will chant the mantra of manifestation.

Deep inhale.

Ariyam tat sat.
