With the affirmation "You are the Sun Rising", identify with the sun inside yourself which keeps rising to meet the new dawn, trusting its light belongs to the world.
Transcript
In this meditation take a pause,
Contemplate and take in everything that you have now that you have brought to yourself to give yourself space to reflect on all the options you've brought forth to this very moment,
This time you're in now under your own power,
Your own magic,
Your own force and with all the support of the universe through the people and the things,
The circumstances and the not so coincidental coincidences that have flowed into your life because you have been open enough and receptive enough and had faith and trust to attract them in.
Appreciate yourself and appreciate your magic and then you'll experience more of it purely by recognizing it and it will lift you out of any moods or limited places which are not allowing you to see your own power,
Your magic and the capacity for things to change,
To evolve,
To grow including you and all the potential that exists.
Let's open up the horizon by seeing the horizons that once were not visible to you but have opened up now.
What is in your life now that once you never believed could be here?
Contemplate,
Breathe with what comes.
In terms of your own capability and capacity,
What are things you feel capable of now and have shown that you're capable of that a previous version of you perhaps could not see?
What changes have you seen in relationships in your life with others perhaps or with work or with yourself?
What positive valuable changes have you seen that maybe once you weren't able to see were possible,
Couldn't find the way forward or the different perspective?
What have you attracted into your life?
What people,
What support,
What energies that really support you and that are where you belong?
You belong being with these energies and to bring those in are there any stretches you had to make in terms of courage or previous ways of thinking or things you were told to believe about yourself and others?
Recognize the great steps you have taken in relationships,
Recognize the great leaps you have made towards yourself and also all the little inroads and footprints.
And as you have perhaps a sense and a feeling of being somewhere now that has been architected by your own hand,
Your own trust and your own manifesting and your own hard work,
Your effort,
Courage and belief as you feel and see yourself in this space in the present,
You can also consider what you're harvesting from all of this as you move forward.
That this brings your whole being to a place that knows what moves to make next,
Coming from a place of trust,
Belief,
Courage and knowing.
Especially allowing your heart to communicate with you and to communicate to your mind what it is that it sees in terms of what you've brought forward,
That it loves and wants more of.
Seeing what you have already brought in that your heart desired will help you continue to trust your heart and the universe and have a belief in authentic balance.
You are the sun rising.
Feel yourself as the sun rising.
See yourself as the sun rising.
You really have come into your own and you've really invested in yourself.
You've found new people to work with and be with,
New creativity,
New visions,
New spaces to move in,
New offerings to make towards yourself and to the world and new ways of being.
You've divested of parts that don't help you and you can keep moving forward with trust and trust that your highest intentions are supported.
You are the sun rising.
So breathe with yourself,
Bring presence to yourself,
Who you are,
All that you have now that once you didn't have even maybe a week,
A month ago.
In terms of your daily health and your lifestyle,
Things look different now and maybe even a week or a month ago there were parts of you that might not have been able to imagine the potential of your being to do what it has done and bring you to now.
Even in subtle ways the way you believe in yourself now is greater than the way you have previously believed in yourself.
This is proven in the way you show up even when it's hard,
Especially in the way you show up when it's hard and challenging.
All the things you've put into place,
So relax now into that feeling and remember the you that thought this wasn't possible or believed in less or whose mind came up for all sorts of reasons why certain things couldn't work and let that you from then be updated to you in the present where all of this is happening now and you made it happen.
You are the sun that keeps rising.
Identify with the sun inside yourself,
The sun that keeps rising,
Rising throughout all weathers,
All climates,
All times.
Nothing changes without our input and our energy.
Any changes that you have experienced that are delighting you now or satisfying you or seem to fulfill you,
It was the way you placed your energy and the openness of your spirit and your belief and your capacity to see the bigger picture and widen your eyes to the whole panorama that have allowed those changes to happen and come through.
Remember your magic and the things and the people you've brought into your life that bring you joy.
Old friends,
New friends,
The people who know you well,
Whom you can talk to all night and laugh with and the new people,
They're meant to be there.
The good energies that you've chosen to draw in and the way you work and flow with those energies to help them too.
And notice all the places where you no longer invest your energy and how that has freed you up so you do not have to struggle and effort and you can save your energy for what is important.
For you are strengthening and healing and growing and evolving and liberating yourself.
And new energies are flowing in which are protective and sweet and good for you and strengthening and bringing in abundance.
And there are changes and movements in people and things around you and that is not to be underestimated.
And you are the sun that keeps rising and all the times you've committed to being authentic and speaking to your truth even if your voice has shaken.
And decided not to please everybody all the time out of habit and not feeling enough but to trust your value and behave authentically.
A bigger,
Wiser picture.
Listening to yourself even when it's uncomfortable.
Grieving for losses and if you can't get through it,
Then you can't get through it.
Grieving for losses and evolving and making space for abundance.
You can relax into your own embrace knowing that you are someone who makes things happen.
There have been times when you've said I can't see a way,
I can't see a way and you have,
You have seen a way.
So you know now that when you're not seeing a way and those times will come that that is not the end of the story.
It is not the place to close a gate.
It is a place to build a bridge of trust and belief from because you only have to commit to keep looking and exploring and being that person who has courage and strength and fortitude and vision.
Not the kind of strength that hardens you against life to tough it out but a deeper more spiritual courage and more human that you accept so much of yourself so much more and there are so many things you choose not to accept or take advice from in the outer world and you choose to take advice from parts of yourself that you used to overlook.
You're growing,
You're growing,
You are using your magic.
There is so much more ahead by seeing where you've really come into your own,
By seeing how you have created so much in your life that you have now and feeling your inner strength and support and magic.
You also see potential for more.
No door is closed,
No window is closed.
Open your heart and offer yourself gratitude.
Warmly recognize your strengths in battle and the presence of something in you that has always been there for you.
Something in you has always been for you.
You are a warrior,
You are made of warrior energy.
Feel that energy,
Feel your warrior shape and your whole energy body taking that form,
That shape.
Take a breath and sit up tall and see yourself.
Your shoulders are broad and your collarbones are open.
Your body is strong,
Your vision is clear.
Training your eyes to the horizon.
You see the fullness past the perspective that many stop at.
The road expanding into the future in multiple ways,
Multiple possibilities.
Open horizon,
Open view.
Breathe into this form.
Rise up like the sunrise.
You are unfolding just as you should.
