Welcome,
We're going to do a meditation to call upon the wisdom of the spiritual ancestors.
While this may be blood ancestors,
You may also meet with ancestors from the realm of nature.
They could be animal spirits,
Elementals,
They could be angelic,
Ascended masters,
Spiritual or cosmic ancestors.
Simply stay open to who appears to you today.
Allow for the mystery.
And may this excerpt from Annie Finch's poem,
Samhain,
Inspire you.
I feel the nights stretching away,
Thousands long behind the days,
Till they reach the darkness where all of me is ancestor.
Settling in,
Become aware of that precious breath.
Allowing that precious breath of light to assist you in arriving in this sacred moment.
Giving every exhale permission to take with it all that no longer serves you.
And allow every inhale to assist that breath to open to the light of your essence in this moment.
Every exhale releasing all that no longer serves.
And every inhale allows the breath to open to the light of your essence in this moment.
As the light of the breath grows brighter,
Gently allowing that light to expand in all directions.
And become aware of a ray of light at the root of your being and the soles of the feet descending down into the heart of Mother Earth.
As you arrive in the heart of the Earth,
Notice waiting for you today a grounding tool.
This could be a stone,
An image,
A word,
Ritual,
Or affirmation.
Just notice as the heart of Mother Earth offers you a gift that can serve as a grounding tool for you today.
As you receive this gift,
Rest in the light of Mother Earth,
Divinely held by your grounding tool.
Become aware of an ancestor belonging to the realm of nature.
A nature spirit,
Animal,
Plant,
Elemental,
Just notice as an ancestor belonging to the realm of nature makes themselves known to you.
What does this sacred earthly ancestor wish for you to know at this time?
How would this beautiful ancestor of the earthly realm like to work with you at this time?
What is the medicine that this sacred consciousness has to share with you at this time?
As you receive this wisdom,
Find yourself gently ascending on the breath,
Bringing that grace up through all the layers of the Earth,
All the layers of your being,
Ascending up into the very heart of the source of your own highest consciousness.
Merge and become one with the heart of your highest consciousness,
And observe the space around you.
What does the space of the heart of your highest consciousness look like,
Feel like,
Sound like,
Smell like,
If anything?
Become aware of a beautiful light expanding from both the right and left chambers of the heart.
Feel that light expanding out in two arcs of light that meet just across from you,
Forming a circle of light that stems from your heart.
And if you wish,
From this sacred space,
Inviting any ancestors,
They don't have to be blood ancestors,
Though they may,
They could be spiritual ancestors,
Angelic ancestors,
Ascended masters,
Any ancestors of love and light and wisdom,
Particular to your consciousness that wish to make themselves known at this time.
Just observe,
And if you need more clarity,
Invite them to make themselves more clear.
We will have a few minutes in silence to allow these ancestors to introduce themselves and share with us how they want to work with us at this time,
And anything they have to teach us or offer us as medicine at this time.
Take a few minutes to explore your heart circle of spiritual ancestry on your own.
Remember to ask how they want to work with you,
Any gifts or messages they have,
Any medicine,
Any tools they may have to offer you.
In a moment,
It will be time to return.
Bowing in gratitude and empowered by the gifts of the ancestors,
We'll observe that circle of light that brought through these sacred beings,
Returning into your heart center,
Knowing you can return here whenever you wish,
And light as a feather,
Finding ourselves gently beginning to float through the stars,
Through the cosmos,
Descending down toward our sacred planet,
Blessing our precious earth,
Filling the space that we are resting in with that sacred light,
And finding that beautiful feather of light gently floating into your auric field,
Illuminating that beautiful field of light,
Enveloping your whole being,
And feeling that gentle feather of light floating through that sacred crown center,
Observing a beautiful violet light opening here as your crown is harmonized to your crown of divine oneness,
And feeling that feather floating through that sacred third eye center,
The seat of the intuition,
Observing a beautiful indigo light opening here as your third eye is harmonized to your all-knowing,
All-seeing eye of divine oneness,
And observing that feather floating through those sacred ear chakras,
Allowing you to hear in harmony with that ear of divine oneness as that beautiful teal light illuminates these centers,
And feeling that feather of light gently floating into the throat,
Opening up that vast sky blue,
Harmonizing your center of truth to your divine source of truth,
And with ease feeling that feather of light floating into the vast spring green of the heart as your center of love,
Compassion,
And grace is harmonized to your divine source of love,
That limitless source of grace,
And gently floating into the golden light of the solar plexus as your center of will,
And power,
And commitment to your soul's purpose in this body,
On this earth,
Is harmonized to your divine limitless source of power,
And feeling that feather of light descending down into that glowing orange light of the sex organs as your center of creativity,
Pleasure,
And self-identity is harmonized to your divine radiant source of self,
That limitless source of joy,
And finally coming to rest at the ruby red light at the base of the spine,
Your center of security and foundation in this body,
On this earth,
And feeling that center divinely harmonized to your infinite divine foundation,
And as you breathe feeling your light settling,
Gently becoming aware of the soles of the feet,
Your body,
Where it meets the surface that you are resting on,
And gently preparing to bring ourselves back,
Wiggling fingers and toes,
And whenever you're ready opening your eyes,
And may the love of the ancestors bless you always.
