This practice guides you through the energy of the east node of the medicine wheel,
Aligning you with truth and clarity and allowing the energy of the rising Sun to bring light into your being.
Close your eyes gently and focus on the breath,
Taking a deep breath in,
Exhaling slowly,
Releasing any tension that you're holding in your physical body and breathing deeply and slowly allowing each breath to ground you into this moment and with every inhale feel yourself becoming more present and more aware of the energy around you.
If you wish set an intention now for your practice of inviting truth,
Honesty,
Openness to flow through every cell of your being.
Imagine that you are standing at the center of the medicine wheel,
The earth beneath your feet solid and steady supporting you as you take this journey.
Gently turn your awareness toward the east.
Visualize the rising Sun just beginning to break over the horizon,
Spilling its first light across the land.
See the sky beginning to shift,
Soft shades of gold and orange and pinks.
The east node is a direction of illumination,
Awakenings and new beginnings.
Feel the warm rays of the Sun beginning to touch your face.
With each ray you feel the energy of the east filling you,
Filling you with light,
Illuminating your soul.
The energy of the Sun shines bright,
Dispelling any shadows and bringing everything into clear focus.
As the Sun rises higher imagine it bringing light to the deepest corners of your being.
Visualize any areas in your life where there may be confusion or uncertainty or doubt and see the sunlight gently shining into those spaces,
Illuminating them with the clear light of truth.
With every breath the light grows stronger.
It reaches the parts of you that may have been hidden or overlooked and the Sun rises and rises and you feel the light of clarity filling your heart,
Your mind and your soul.
And the sunlight bringing your attention to the truth that lives within you.
Are there truths that you have been avoiding?
Feel the warmth of the Sun encouraging you to embrace these truths,
To allow them to come into the light where they can be acknowledged and understood.
Breathe deeply now and with each inhale accepting the truth within you and with each exhale releasing fears or resistance to seeing things clearly.
Allow the rising Sun to illuminate your path.
The East offers you new beginnings,
A chance to step forward with honesty,
With courage,
With authenticity.
Trust that the clarity the Sun brings is guiding you toward a deeper understanding of yourself and your purpose,
Your Dharma.
Feel a light of the Sun continuing to expand not just around you but within you.
This light is your inner truth shining with brilliance and clarity.
It is the part of you that knows what is real and what is true.
Take a moment here to reflect on the truths that you are ready to embrace.
What is it that you need now to acknowledge in order for you to move forward?
What has been hidden in the shadows that is now ready to be brought into the light?
Sit with this truth for a moment.
Let this clarity wash over you like the rising Sun knowing that you are safe here and supported and guided by this illumination.
Trust that the energy of the East will continue to support you in living in alignment with your highest truth.
Now visualize the Sun fully risen in the sky casting its brilliant light over the landscape around you,
Feeling warm on your skin and knowing that every single day,
Every single sunrise is available to you whenever you seek clarity,
Truth or understanding.
Take one final deep breath inhaling the energy of the East,
Clarity,
Truth and new beginnings.
As you exhale release any remaining doubts or fears.
Feel and know and believe that you are carrying with you the illumination of the East,
The sunrise,
The truth.
Know that this openness,
This truth and clarity you've connected to are always within you and they are guiding you towards growth and new beginnings when the time is right.
The light,
The energy,
My light,
My energy sees,
Feels and connects to yours.
Namaste.
