Welcome beautiful being.

You are invited to set aside the day.

To release the weight of thoughts.

Let go of doing.

And simply arrive here to be.

There is nothing left to do or achieve today.

You are now here to support and come home to yourself.

Tonight we journey together to Mars as he shines boldly in the evening sky.

The red planet that carries the energies of passion strength truth and the flame of courage.

You can take this journey to drift off to sleep to or if you need a moment of rest and receiving.

Whatever is needed tonight Mars offers it freely restoration balance strength in surrender courage to rest.

Now bring yourself into a comfortable receptive position.

Bring awareness to your breath.

Notice the sound of your breath.

Notice if you can feel any sensations from your breath.

And then take a mindful gentle breath in and a long soft exhale out.

Again breathing in and sighing a long breath out.

And repeat one more round.

Breathing in and releasing as you exhale.

With each breath you feel the body softening.

Shoulders releasing.

The jaw unclenching.

And the heart opening.

Take a moment to invite all your parts back to you with a loving embrace to rest with you here and now.

This will not be a journey of effort.

There is nothing to do but listen soften surrender and allow.

Mars himself will guide you.

Mars is about the energy of moving forward.

It's the spark that says I am alive.

Tonight we will feel the softer warmth of Mars.

Resting in your strength and sitting with the steady glowing calm ember within the fire.

Imagine now you are lying beneath a vast star filled sky.

You can be anywhere that resonates with you in this moment.

The air is calm and warm.

Above you countless stars shine magically in the infinite space.

With each breath your body grows lighter and lighter and lighter.

Until you begin to float.

Rising softly into the night sky.

And the earth grows smaller and smaller and smaller below.

And the stars nearer and nearer and nearer.

All around you galaxies dance and swirl.

The moon watches with her soft glow.

And then there radiating ahead is Mars.

Drawing you closer and closer and closer.

With his bold fiery red glow.

You arrive at his presence.

You pause to take in the beauty of Mars.

You can feel his energy pulsing through your heart.

First feel his physical presence.

A desert world of iron dust.

Mountain peaks and vast valleys.

And the largest volcano in our solar system.

You admire the raw beauty and the representation of strength and determination of Mars.

Now shift from the physical to the energetic.

Feel the vibration of Mars.

A current of life force,

Courage,

Wise action and purpose.

Mars is the spiritual warrior willing to rise to the challenge of soul growth in a fearless way.

The healthy Mars archetype is alive and vital and can take charge to evolve the planet.

It is not wild or chaotic here.

You feel a deep rhythm and a heartbeat that keeps you steady in all you do.

Take some time and let the energy flow into and throughout you.

You are now drawn into the warm magnetic glow of Mars.

And feel the flow of Mars in the tree of life.

You find yourself in a vast desert landscape.

In the backdrop of the highest mountains you have ever seen.

This sacred strength pulses through you.

The power of this landscape has that of discipline,

Structure and divine justice.

It is the masculine power that shapes love into form.

That gives purpose to passion.

Gevara teaches us that true strength is not control,

But clarity.

Not dominance,

But integrity.

Allow this energy to settle within you now.

As you come closer,

A figure appears next to the fire,

Which you make out to be the emperor,

The archetype of Mars.

His presence is deeply solid.

He casts a calm presence your way and gives you a wise,

Assured smile.

He is the guardian of order and direction.

He does not rush,

He does not grasp.

He knows when to act and when to rest.

You are drawn to sit by the fire with the emperor.

His steadiness anchors you.

He looks deep into your eyes and you can feel that his eyes see the strength within you.

Not in your effort,

But in your essence.

You feel his whole presence surrounding you.

He may now offer you some wisdom.

Something to remind you of your power to lead your life with more clarity and calm.

A feeling,

A sensation.

Take some time to rest in his presence and trust that whatever will reach you,

If anything at all,

Is what you need in this moment.

Now you gaze into the fire and feel the energy of the flames holding you,

Emanating vitality through you.

You then feel the emperor merging and becoming one with you.

The energy and wisdom of the emperor always lies within you because you are the emperor and the emperor is you.

Then you feel yourself expand as you continue to gaze into the flames of the fire.

You feel the fire within you.

You become the fire because you are the fire.

And reminding you of new beginnings,

Boldness and truth.

Ares guides you to venture forth despite uncertainty and unfamiliarity and manage whatever challenges arise.

You see the brightest star Hamal,

The head of the ram and breathe in the courage of Ares.

Then you see Scorpio,

The scorpion with deep,

Mysterious water element energy.

You gaze into the shining red star Antares,

The heart of the scorpion.

You sit with the power of transformation,

Strength in growth and rebirth through surrender.

These two constellations have a resonance with Mars,

One fiery and direct,

The other deep and magnetic.

Rest beneath their light now.

Let Ares awaken you with strength to begin.

Let Scorpio soothe you into release.

Together,

They balance you with fire and stillness.

In the quiet glow,

Mars whispers questions into your heart.

He says you don't need to answer right now.

Just allow the questions to drift and seed in the fertile soil of your soul.

Where am I ready to act with courage?

What truth within me wants to be expressed?

How can I hold my power with gentleness?

What would it feel like to rest without losing my strength?

Now,

Feel Mars' warmth wrapping gently around you.

His red light surrounds you like a cocoon.

You are safe here.

Your energy can rest and still remain strong and powerful.

Let yourself melt into this embrace.

Surrender to the warmth of Mars and feel the expansion of space within you.

Feel yourself merging and becoming one with Mars because you are Mars and Mars is you.

Slowly,

The red light begins to fade and you feel yourself floating back down through the stars.

Down,

Down,

Carried by a calm wave.

The Earth grows closer beneath you.

Your body,

Waiting,

Peaceful and restored.

As you return,

You feel the warmth of Mars remaining within.

A quiet fire glowing at the centre of your being.

You have met your courage and felt your strength.

Now you can rest.

If sleep is calling,

Allow yourself to drift there easily now with a soft smile on your face.

If rest is what you need,

Remain held in the stillness for as long as you need.

This journey is offered with Universal Love.
