This is a turning point,
A time of sacred rest,
Rejuvenation and restoration.
It's a time to review the year and celebrate how far you've come and make plans for the year ahead.
Be comfortable and close your eyes if you wish.
Breathe deeply,
Sighing any tension,
Anxieties and worries away on each out breath.
Returning to your natural breathing rhythm,
Sense the space within you,
Your essence,
Your energy.
It is within and without.
It is one.
In the quiet of winter it seems nothing happens,
Yet as the plants have died back and the leaves turn to mulch,
Much is going on unseen.
What has been in the previous seasons is now facilitating the growth of the upcoming seasons.
In the darkness of the season,
Don't fear your own darkness,
It is through this you grow,
Transform and become enlightened.
Your inner light never dims.
The new moon signifies a fresh start,
A new beginning,
And now is perfect for reviewing how far you've come and making commitments for your future,
Recognising responsibilities and realistically and maturely nurturing your dreams.
Let go of what doesn't serve you well and intend on reaping the rewards of your ambitions with this new beginning.
Switch your mind to what you want and follow your dreams.
You can do it,
You're an unlimited being of love and light,
All things are possible.
Now let's get to some inner work.
Feel the gong,
Review your year past,
Celebrate your wins whether big or small,
Celebrate all that you've let go of and all the growth and transformation you've experienced.
The new moon signifies a fresh start,
A new beginning,
And now is perfect for reviewing Just spend a few moments in gratitude.
Capricorn energy is practical,
Logical,
Tenacious,
Hardworking,
Loyal and self-disciplined.
Feel the gong,
Contemplate where you might integrate these traits into your daily being.
Another Capricorn trait is being in the present moment.
Spend a few moments now just sitting with yourself.
After all,
You are a wonderful,
Unique soul expression.
Where do you want to be in one year's time,
Even five years?
List your hopes,
Dreams,
Ambitions and intentions.
Push outside the box.
If we keep doing the same things,
We get the same results.
Until the gong,
Consider your strategy working backwards from the big dream or goal.
Set an intention to take a step towards your dream every day.
It is said,
The lesson at this time is,
Acceptance of the concept that reasonable boundaries and rules offer us freedom.
Freedom from worry and disorder in life,
Which then allows us to focus on what really matters.
Focus on your breathing for a few cycles.
Until the gong,
Feel the love that you are.
Feel the light inside you expand.
Feel your transformation.
If you wish to,
Repeat,
I am an unlimited being of love and light.
I am an unlimited being of love and light.
I am an unlimited being of love and light.
I am an unlimited being of love and light.
Take this sacred time of rest to nurture yourself,
To take responsibility for your health and well-being,
Emotionally,
Physically and spiritually.
Imagine some movement to your body and when you're ready,
Open your eyes.
As always,
My love and appreciation flow to you.
Thank you for meditating with me today.
Love and light to you all.
Namaste.
