Welcome to your Capricorn New Moon Meditation,
Planting with Purpose.
The invitation is to find a comfortable seat or lie down if that feels better in your body.
Let your hands rest gently.
Let your eyes close.
Begin to take slow inhales through the nose and exhale fully through the mouth.
Again,
Inhale and exhale.
And again,
Inhale and exhale.
Allow your breath to be an anchor into this present moment.
Let yourself arrive,
Creating space between what just happened and this present moment.
If you can,
I invite you to imagine the earth beneath you.
Not just the floor,
Not just your yoga mat,
But the layers of earth beneath that.
The stone,
The soil,
The roots.
You are supported by something ancient and wise.
Visualize a great mountain behind you.
This is Capricorn energy.
It's a reminder that your growth takes time,
That your path doesn't have to be rushed.
Allow your spine to lengthen.
Let your jaw soften.
You are the mountain,
Strong,
Present,
And becoming.
Continue inhaling and exhaling.
Now gently bring your awareness to what you're ready to commit to.
Not in a forceful way,
But in a clear,
Steady,
Grounded way.
Just like the mountain.
Ask yourself,
What part of my life is asking to be built slowly and intentionally?
What would I plant today,
Knowing it may not bloom tomorrow,
But will bloom when it's ready?
When the foundations are strong and the structure is there.
You don't need the full blueprint,
Just the right step.
Allow an intention to rise.
Keep it simple.
One sentence,
One word,
A whispered truth.
Now hold that gently in your heart space.
Imagine you are holding a small seed in your hand.
This seed carries your intention,
The one that you gently placed in your heart.
The one that's simple,
The one that is a authentic truth to you.
Feel its weight,
Its possibility,
Its quiet,
Strong,
Stable power.
Now imagine planting this seed into rich,
Dark soil.
You dig the hole.
Your hands feel deeply connected to the earth,
To the soil.
And your hands simply drop the seed into that hole.
Gently pressing it into the earth.
You cover it with dirt,
With soil,
With earth.
You water it,
Knowing that everything will work out.
You walk away,
Trusting that the earth will do the rest.
You don't need to control it.
Just tend to it when it calls.
Letting in sunlight,
Watering a little bit more,
Stepping away from it so it can root itself.
Let this be your quiet pact with the future.
Take a few moments here to breathe in that reality,
Into that intention.
Now bring one hand to your heart and one hand to your belly.
Take one final breath in,
And one slow breath out.
Say out loud or in your mind's eye,
I plant with purpose.
I grow with grace.
I trust the rhythm of my becoming.
Maybe you say it a few more times until it feels real.
And when you're ready,
Gently open your eyes.
Send yourself some gratitude for showing up for this practice.
Happy Capricorn New Moon.
