Welcome to this multi-part meditation series,
Reconnect With Yourself,
Plant-guided journeys through the sephira of the Kabbalah.
Spider-Plant and I,
Tigreya Gardena,
Are delighted to guide you on this journey.
Each journey will open you to unexpected sensations and capabilities contained within one sephira of the Tree of Life.
Whether you are a longtime Kabbalist or hearing about this for the first time,
With Spider-Plant's expert musical direction,
You are sure to travel deep into your being.
Have writing and coloring materials close by to capture what comes to you at the end.
Plants use a variety of languages to communicate,
Including images,
Smells,
And sensations.
Capture everything,
Even if it seems to not be related.
The messages will become clear over time.
Kabbalah provides a way of perceiving how the universe works and what affects your ability to make free will decisions.
Each sephira offers a window into your own psychological and archetypal makeup across lifetimes.
And with the assistance of plants,
You can see through the illusion of conditioning,
Limiting beliefs,
And fear.
Although you may not recognize all the plants in this meditation,
Trust that Spider-Plant's music is bringing up their essence.
During this practice,
We will connect with chesed,
Merciful kindness.
As the fourth emanation on the tree,
Chesed is the active force that aligns with devotion and idealism.
Let's begin our journey.
I invite you to sit comfortably and shift your focus to the music.
This music is being composed by Spider-Plant specifically to journey into chesed.
Close your eyes.
Start taking some nice deep breaths.
In through your nose,
Out through your mouth.
Nice and slow.
Bring to mind an infinite field of tulips.
Feel yourself go there,
Surrounded by a deep sense of calm and love.
Imagine the details of this field through your senses.
Go through each sense,
One by one,
Feeling yourself there.
What does this field of tulips look like?
What do you hear?
What can you smell?
What tastes come up?
What do they feel to touch?
Breathe this place into being,
Invigorated by the show of colors.
You feel an expansion into glorious,
Unconditional love and begin walking through this field.
Your soul is aware of the journey the body endures and lovingly appreciates your willingness to patiently move through the difficulties.
Here in this space of chesed,
Choices are easy to make as you consciously align to the master of your choosing.
An olive tree appears in the distance.
As you approach,
The worn,
Curved bark becomes clear.
This is a tree that has lived many experiences over the millennia,
Sacrificing independence and selflessly giving for the good of the whole.
Sit with olive and take time to feel how things move into balanced harmony.
Cohesive intelligence,
How clear actions become from this most exalted essence.
You stand,
Turning to the path created by you through the field.
A blue light glows where you began.
You are pulled by the feelings of safety and love created by each loyal step taken.
A feeling that explodes to completely cover you when you reach the light.
At your feet,
You find a single shamrock.
Bending down to pick key,
Your body comes back into focus.
The density begins to take form.
You are back in your body,
Yet changed.
All prejudice is dropped.
All constraints expanded.
And a lingering scent of nutmeg.
Final gifts from chesed.
When you feel ready,
Slowly open your eyes.
Take your writing materials and capture everything that has come to you during this practice.
Doodles,
Movement,
Smells,
Fragments of thoughts.
These can all be ways the plants help bring into the physical world what you've perceived.
Let it flow from you directly with no filter.
In time,
With the help of plant friends,
The meanings will start to take shape.
Thank you for your presence.
SpiderPlan and I,
Tigiriya Gardenia,
Look forward to meeting again soon for another journey to reconnect with yourself.
