Welcome to this guided meditation.
The Sword.
This is a meditation for clearing and releasing.
Sit or lie down.
Find a comfortable position for you today.
And if you like,
You can close your eyes.
Allowing your body and your whole being to just arrive here and now.
Allowing all of your muscles to soften a little.
Feeling the palms of your hands softening.
The soles of your feet softening.
Allowing yourself to open to something.
And I invite you now to bring your awareness to the image,
The feeling,
The sensation of being in a beautiful clearing in nature.
By a still,
Calm lake.
Tall trees stand before you across the lake,
Reaching up to the sky,
And there is a crisp quietness in the air.
And you somehow feel a peaceful sense of being alone at the same time as feeling gently held and supported by something.
By the atmosphere.
By your breath gently in and out of your nose.
By the silence of the trees.
By the softness of your muscles.
By the stillness of the water before you.
By the open sky.
And whatever it is that is ready to begin to release from you today,
Is already sensing this process,
Is softly swirling around you,
Beginning its departure with ease,
Hearing the call of transformation.
You are ready.
Calling now to your awareness,
The energy or the image,
Or simply the essence of a beautiful mystical sword.
A glistening type of energy.
Sparkling,
Protective and powerful.
You may have images arrive,
You can just let them be there,
As you simply allow this natural process to happen.
And you may just feel the essence,
The energy of the sword surrounding you,
Like an aura of cleansing,
Clearing light,
That arrives with this glistening,
Powerful quality.
That arrives with boldness,
And arrives with peace.
And you just allow this invisible quality,
This feeling,
To begin to clear.
To begin to clear anything that you feel you have outgrown,
And you do not even need to focus or know specifically what you are clearing or transforming.
You just invite the energy of the sword to join you,
To surround you.
And then you just allow whatever happens to happen.
And maybe you do feel specific things leaving,
Transmuting.
Maybe you don't.
Either way,
You know that this is happening through you.
Old ties melting away and transforming,
Into the shimmering light that gently surrounds you.
Old ways of being melting away,
Transmuting,
Into the shimmering light gently surrounding you.
Off into the sky,
Through the trees.
Old hurts and wounds beginning to soften,
As the light calls them to join.
Feel this shimmering light surrounding you.
Any way that you feel this is perfect for you.
Allow all of the questioning to melt away too,
Because you already know what to do.
You are already doing this.
Just allow yourself to be here for a few moments now,
With the essence of the sword,
To open up mystical pathways through your world,
Through your inner realms,
To clear and shift all that is ready to move and surrender.
Gently bringing your awareness now back into your body,
Stretching and moving if you'd like.
And when you feel ready,
You can open your eyes,
And allow this lightness of being to carry with you.
