Welcome to this new moon and cancer meditation.
Take a comfortable position and allow your eyes to close and begin by taking a slow,
Deep breath in through your nose.
And a gentle breath out through your mouth.
And again,
Breathing in nice and deep through your nose.
And then I saw it out.
One more time,
Take a nice big deep breath in as far as you can go.
And again,
One final sigh out.
Continue to breathe naturally and notice the surface beneath you supporting your body completely.
For these next few moments,
You can allow yourself to simply receive.
With each breath,
Imagine a gentle wave of relaxation moving through you.
Starting at the top of your head.
Flowing through your forehead.
Softening your jaw.
Relaxing your neck and your shoulders.
And the wave continues down your arms into your hands.
Through your chest and your heart.
Your stomach,
Your hips.
Down your legs all the way to your feet.
And with every exhale,
You let go of any tension you no longer need to carry.
Begin to imagine yourself standing beside a calm body of water beneath a dark night sky.
The new moon is above you,
But you can't see it.
The water before you is perfectly still.
And as you look across its surface,
Allow yourself to settle into this moment.
Notice how you're feeling emotionally as you look across the water.
There's no need to change anything.
Simply acknowledge what's present.
And as you're gazing out,
Ask yourself.
What helps me truly feel safe?
Allowing whatever arises to come naturally.
It could be a feeling,
A memory,
A place,
A person,
Or even a quality within yourself.
Trust the answer that appears first.
Now bring your awareness to your heart.
Imagining a soft warm silver light gathering there.
The energy of the Cancer New Moon is emotional nourishment.
As this light grows brighter,
Silently repeat to yourself,
I am creating a strong and loving foundation for myself.
I am safe to care for my needs.
I am building a home within myself that feels secure,
Peaceful,
And supportive.
Allow these words to settle deeply into you and expand that silver light beyond your body.
Filling your home.
Every room and every corner.
Infusing your environment with peace,
Comfort,
And harmony.
And see your home becoming your sanctuary.
A place that supports your well-being and where you feel safe to rest,
To heal,
And to grow.
If family is part of your intention tonight,
Imagine this same light gently surrounding the people that you love.
Blessing the relationships with understanding,
Compassion,
And emotional safety.
Now bring to mind your intention for this new lunar cycle that's connected to home,
Family,
Or emotional security.
When you have it,
State it in the present tense as if it's already reality.
Silently repeat it three more times.
And as you repeat your intention.
Imagine it settling into your mind and becoming part of the choices that you make each day.
Now imagine the silver light gently settling into your heart,
Where it will remain long after this meditation ends.
A reminder for yourself that true security begins within.
And that every act of self-care strengthens the foundation of your future.
Slowly begin to bring your awareness back to your breath.
Back to the room around you.
Noticing your body.
And the piece of furniture supporting it.
Noticing any sounds you can hear in the room around you.
Slowly taking an inhale through the nose.
And a nice long exhale,
Wiggling your fingers and your toes.
Taking any other gentle movements or stretches as you need.
And when you feel ready,
You may open your eyes.
Thank you for joining me on this meditation,
And I'll see you next time.
