Welcome to this meditation.
This one works with the energy of diamond and is about showing up with courage in your everyday life.
To get started just get comfortable either sitting or lying down.
Roll your shoulders back and let them drop.
Relax your neck and your jaw.
Take a deep breath in.
And a long breath out.
Another deep breath in.
And a long breath out.
Place your hands comfortably in your lap or by your side.
Close your eyes and start to see a sphere of bright white light around your body.
It is clearing your space,
Your energy field,
Sending away anything that does not belong to you or is not for your highest good.
On the next big breath in see a golden cord extend from you through your tailbone and down into the earth.
It's anchoring you into the core of Gaia,
Grounding your physical body to the present moment.
Now envision a silver cord running from the top of your head up up up into the stars and plugging you into source or God or universe,
However it is that you perceive our communal energy to be.
Feel yourself floating now,
Travelling up this cord,
Gently flying all the way to the stars.
See the night sky around you,
Feel the wonder of the starlight as it reflects off your skin.
Everything is a blur of silver and deep midnight blue.
Now gently you land in a mossy grove.
Ancient trees grow around the edges and in front of you is the stone remains of a sacred temple.
Everything here is safe and warm.
A tall silver being steps forward from the temple steps and embraces you in a warm hug.
This is the energy of diamond.
He is like a kind father or grandfather energy.
He whispers in your ear that he is glad you have come.
You are a much loved child of the stars,
A vital part of the whole that we all come from.
His silvery light fills you with peace and love.
You may even breathe out a sigh of relief as in this place there is no judgment,
No masks,
Just you and source energy that loves you unconditionally.
See now next to diamond an altar with a large bowl.
The bowl is full of a shiny silvery liquid that looks like the texture of mercury.
Diamond dips in a jug and fills it with this liquid.
Passing it to you,
He invites you to spread this starlight on your body.
You start with your arms,
Spreading it along the left arm and the right arm and scooping some up you spread it on your face and head.
It leaves a silvery sheen behind so you are glowing.
Now bend to do your legs,
Your chest and your belly.
This silver sheen,
Diamond says,
Symbolizes an energetic suit of armour,
A secret coating of bravery and courage.
Is there somewhere you can take this suit of courage back with you into your day?
It doesn't have to be a big thing,
Maybe there is somewhere you can have the courage to set a boundary,
Perhaps at work or with your family.
Maybe your bravery will be to reveal to someone a little more of your authentic self.
Maybe you need courage to have the faith that the challenges in your life that are happening,
Are happening for you,
Not just to you.
That all will be revealed in a bigger picture in time.
Maybe we can use this energetic coat of starlight to give us a confidence boost Say to yourself now,
I am brave.
I am brave.
It is safe for me to be seen.
It is safe for me to be heard.
It is safe for me to be heard.
I am brave.
Feel free to take these affirmations with you this week and to suit up in starlight anytime you need a bravery boost.
Remind yourself it is okay to change in baby steps,
It doesn't need to happen all at once.
Breathe deeply now.
And prepare to leave the grove.
Diamond embraces you one more time and sends you his love for this journey.
Start to float gently back down the tunnel of silvery starlight back to your resting body.
Give yourself a moment to be here present and centered in your physical body.
Become aware of the sounds in the room around you.
Gently wiggle your fingers and toes.
When you are ready,
Open your eyes and come back to your day.
Many blessings and thank you for meditating with me.
