Full Moon Meditation

(This full moon brings in the energies of Leo and Aquarius, signs devoted to individual creativity and collective responsibility) "I can tell you that understanding begins with love and respect. It begins with respect for the Great Spirit. All things - and I mean ALL things - have their own will and their own way and their own purpose; this is what is to be respected." -White Bison

Let's close our eyes now and take a moment to quiet our minds. Letting go of the day we have had with gratitude for each experience. Take a deep breath in through your nose and take that breath down into your abdomen. Breathe out through your mouth taking slower longer breathes each time. Let's take a moment to just pay attention & focus our breathing. Now imagine white light entering the body with each breath traveling into the lungs and releasing any energy that is not serving you through each exhale. Breathe in white light, exhale & release...(repeat at your own pace several times)

Now imagine yourself in a safe a sacred forest. Smell the damp earth & feel the mossy ground below you. See the glow of the moon through the leaves above you. Now see the amber glow of mother earth's energy reaching up through the ground and connecting with you. How nurturing she is. Place your hand over your heart and send that love energy back to Mother Earth creating a flow of energy.
Look up & find a spot now in the trees above you that is open. You can see the round glowing disc of grandmother moon, see her bathing you in a protective circle of light. This vibrant energy transforms you & fills you with the purity of spirit transforming every cell of your being to bright light—from your toes, to your navel, to your chest, to your jaw, to your eyes & the crown of your head. Relax & feel the joy of this energy. It is vibrant with the power to give, to receive, to nurture life, and manifest what is possible.
With your hand still at your heart, massage this area. This full moon brings in the energies of Leo and Aquarius, signs devoted to individual creativity and collective responsibility. They represent the forces of "me" and "we." When the radiance of me joins hands with the reality of we, our world recognizes its interdependence, how what happens to one of us touches all of us. Imagine what a future we'd create if everyone brought me and we into balance. We will take a moment to breathe balance into our world.
Breathing in…self-centered egos, cold hearts.
Breathing out…warm smiles, loving hands joined
Breathing in… the extinction of species, Breathing out…ingenious solutions, saving each animal & knowing it's value here
Breathing in…people who feel like nobodies. Breathing out... the knowing that all are divine.
See the world bathed in the purifying light of your moon offering. See yourself again in the forest under the glow of the moon.
When you are ready, bring your hands to your sides, palms facing the earth. Feel yourself slowly coming back into your body... becoming aware of the room... rest in this peace until you are ready to open your eyes. Thank you for your work this evening. -Aho
