This meditation invites you to call upon the full moon as your celestial guide for connecting with your inner strength in a short working for cleansing and empowerment.
Allow the full moon to amplify you in self-discovery as you attune to its energy.
Begin in a position that is comfortable for you,
Either sitting or lying down.
As you come into your sacred space,
Do so in a way that allows you to feel yourself rooting into the earth and drawing in energy from the core of the earth.
If you wish,
You may close the eyes.
Take a deep breath and release it slowly.
As you do so,
Shift the awareness from the previous events and experiences of your day,
Allowing yourself to be fully present,
Allowing yourself to simply be in this moment.
Take another deep breath and release it slowly.
Allow the neck and shoulders to relax completely.
Allow the muscles and jaw to soften.
Bring awareness to the breath.
Be aware of the natural flow of breath without altering it.
Know that you are in a sacred space.
You are at peace here.
You are welcome here.
You belong here.
With the awareness still on the breath,
Begin to see the full moon in your mind's eye.
As you enter a natural and tranquil garden at dusk,
Begin to see,
Sense,
And feel the energy flowing from the moon and its fullness.
Allow this energy to bring a sense of contentment to you.
Allow this energy to nourish you,
Uplift you.
Embrace this energy.
Embrace the clarity and strength within you.
Call upon the strength and power emanating from the full moon to elevate you even more.
Call upon your connection to divine energy now,
Knowing that you will be guided and guarded as you journey into this meditative working.
As you move closer to the center of the garden,
You are able to feel the power of the full moon washing all negative energy away from you,
Enabling you to absorb only energy that is positive,
That which contributes to your highest good.
Glancing down,
You notice a small table at your feet.
Perhaps this table is wooden or made of stone.
Perhaps it is round or square.
There is nothing atop this table,
So on its surface you are able to see a reflection of the moonlight.
Fixing a soft gaze on this wondrous light from above,
The light becomes for you a portal of divination.
As you use this portal to look within yourself,
The power of the full moon begins to amplify your personal power,
And you become aware of your greatness.
You become aware of your accomplishments,
For they are many.
Your personal strength and what you have achieved through it come to the forefront of your mind.
Spend a few moments now in appreciation of your achievements,
Your strength,
Your divine self as a whole.
After honoring yourself,
You now call to mind your very core,
Your values,
That which you hold dear to you.
Consider the things that contribute to your essential self,
Your highest good.
These can be matters of spirituality,
Relationships,
Things you are passionate about.
Begin to visualize these personal treasures in any way your mind calls them forth.
Now see yourself placing these items one by one upon the top of the table,
This moon altar,
So that they too may become empowered,
Uplifted,
And strengthened by the energy of the full moon.
Now spend a few moments in silence under the glow of the full moon.
Take several deep breaths,
Allowing the amplified spiritual energy of this blessed time to come into you and all that you are.
On this peaceful night and at this sacred hour,
Ours is the magic,
Ours is the power,
The power of the moon I now bring into me.
As above,
So below,
So mote it be.
Begin to bring awareness back to the present.
Bring awareness to the breath,
Then slowly to any sensations around you.
Begin to invite subtle movements into the hands and feet,
The fingers and toes.
Take another deep breath and release it slowly.
The crow flies from me to thee to send the message,
Blessed be.
