Sleep Story: Protected By The White Fox

Allow yourself to drift into sleep under the protection of the white fox with three tails, a Divine Messenger spirit from Japanese legend. In this 5-minute guided sleep meditation, you remain in the comfort of your bed as the fox arrives to wrap you in her watchful gaze and silken tails. She carries you gently into an ancient forest, alive with the scent of moss. As you surrender to rest, the sound of koto music closes the meditation, weaving a final layer of peace and protection.

This sleep story is part of my devotion to Japanese-inspired offerings — blending myth, sensual storytelling, and the senses.

Close down your eyes,

Your room is quiet,

You can feel the house around you preparing for sleep,

The trees near your home are finally settling into a deep sleep,

The sun has long since gone down,

The neighbourhood is slowly but surely falling asleep,

With each exhalation your body melts into your bed,

You feel at peace,

You feel calm,

Then you hear the sound of feet slowly walking down the hallway,

A protector is coming,

This being emanates a bright protective light and as they walk through your door,

Unfazed by wood,

The white light around it dims,

And you feel the power of a white fox with three tails,

It has arrived.

This is a divine messenger,

Not a kitsune known for its trickery,

Its sole purpose here,

In your room,

Is to protect your body,

Your mind,

Your soul and your dreams,

So that you may experience sleep so deep,

You wake up feeling unbelievably rested,

It pads across your room,

Sniffing at your windowsill,

And you can smell the scent of ancient forests,

Moss,

And feel the glimmer of prayers of protection radiating from this fox,

It walks to each corner,

Greeting it like a friend,

Gently scenting what you cannot see,

And you are transported to the forest that you can smell,

You are still in your bed,

But now,

You are in a forest in your bed,

With this protective white fox with three tails.

It's now standing facing you,

Seeing something in your sleepy aura that you cannot,

It circles three times,

Gently bows its head to you,

Turns to softly wave its tails over your body,

Cleaning your space,

Cleansing your aura,

And lifting your day's discomforts,

As it does this,

A soft glitter falls from its tails to land and seed into your body,

You breathe more deeply,

You breathe more easily,

Your body melts further and further into sleep,

It gently turns and moves to sit at the foot of your bed,

Eyes outwards to see the unseen,

Eyes aware,

As it holds vigil,

As it acts as a sentry,

Gently the sound of the forest bathes you,

The soft swishing of leaves,

Wind singing through pines and you feel completely at peace,

You are protected and you will be protected all through the night,

Your aura is being cleansed,

Your energy is being held and protected,

You are being protected,

In this forest,

In your bed,

You are safe,

Your dreams are safe,

Your body is safe,

Goodnight.
