You can transform the Air element in your life into its highest expressions by working with crystals. The Lunar Month has seven days that are optimal for this practice. The following guided meditations will show you how.
Day Twelve: Fiery Air (Aspiration; Amethyst)
Colloquy: You have moved to the alcove in the circular outer wall of the temple which holds the energies of Amethyst. You step through the gateway of Amethyst into the alcove and the spirit guide of Amethyst places a sphere of this crystal in your hands. The guide speaks: “You have come to a point of openness and readiness where you are ready to experience a new quality of aspiration. The heart power of Mother Earth herself is ready to work with you and in you. If you can accept the fullness of this precious Amethyst and allow its power to express through your mind-body temple, then your highest Aspiration can be realized. The aspect of yourself that calls you to integrate with infinite energy and enlightened consciousness is now reaching into the depths of your being, and your openness to change supports the process that this is bringing about. When you respond to these pulls from within, you open doors to higher levels of integration and wholeness. This impetus for change is generated by parts of your being with which you may not be fully in contact. Energy enhancements are often initiated at a level beyond your current awareness. Yet your ability to say “Yes!” to all that widens and deepens you remains your key to growth. Your Aspiration for progress in life is fully supported by Amethyst. It is naïve to think that an obstacle-free path is a sign that one is spiritually advanced, for the challenges of life furnish us with learning opportunities that would not be possible in any other way. Only by encompassing all kinds of energetic experiences can you achieve wholeness. All must be embraced and transcended if you are to become complete in your mastery of vibrations. When you suppress inclinations that you judge to be negative, or deny your emotional reactions, you only necessitate further experiences with these issues. It is important to be totally committed to the choices make, fully present in all your experiences, for these experiences constitute the school wherein you explore the meaning of life. You need these ups and downs of energy and consciousness to transcend the limitations and illusions of existence in human form and to realize your innate divinity, beyond the appearances of limitation. Be committed to what life brings you, be present with all your heart, for only thus can you reach the depths and height of what is possible to experience and discover. Your own inner sensing of what is true and right for you will serve you better than many of the conventional teachings that are your inheritance from the past. Any discipline that gives true expression to soulful Aspiration can bring you rich rewards. It is not the structure or form of a given practice that makes it rewarding, but rather the energy and enthusiasm you bring to it. If you begrudge the time taken for your spiritual practices, if you force yourself through endless repetitions (rather than savouring the richness of the Now moment in each) then the techniques you have chosen will be profitless. If you engage your spiritual disciplines from a sense of duty or obligation, you will similarly fall short of the satisfaction that could have been yours. The vibrancy and the reward of any spiritual practice is lies in the wholehearted surrender that you bring to it. The outer forms or techniques you choose are only patterns through which to express this sincerity of dedication. The joy that you bring, not the excellence of the technique, however sanctified by tradition, is the key to success. Expecting specific results is always a serious obstacle to realization. Amethyst connects you with that part of your being where you care deeply enough to Aspire with your heart and soul. Amethyst is a catalyst which will enable you to affirm your choices with total sincerity, and thus maximize the fruits of your Aspiration.
Perhaps you fear Change. Perhaps, because the Divine is unknowable, formless and vast, you fear to open yourself to all it can be for you. Perhaps you believe that contraction, denial, fear or dispersed attention are suitable to your present life and that these can still serve you in some way. Or perhaps you are in denial about being stuck and stagnant in your evolution to a wider awareness of life and its possibilities. If so, let go of these notions and these fearful feelings. Release them altogether. Open up to the enhancement of Aspiration that can be yours in this gift of Amethyst. Accept this opportunity from the Mother Earth to embrace your heart path and discover your Oneness with Source.
(Be reminded of how to practice Clearing, and apply at this point if appropriate. Then be aware of the principles of Affirmation: Building Up A New Presence, and apply as appropriate.)
Go deep within your heart, and with all the power of your soul affirm:
a) I allow my beliefs to be transformed.
b) I am free to change and grow.
c) I let go of doubt and self-judgement.
d) I open myself to the Highest.
e) I aspire with all my mind, heart and soul.
Place the Amethyst crystal over your solar plexus and feel the sacred energy which it establishes there. Be aware of the space in consciousness that this Amethyst energy opens for you. See and feel that energy spreading to all parts of your being. In this alcove of Amethyst, you are attuned to your heart path, and you can always return here for renewal of these energies and this awareness.
You are now ready to do the work that is given to you in sacred time, the work by which you express the divinity of your soul through the material body you have borrowed from Mother Earth. You will use this sacred gift of Amethyst from the body of Mother Earth to deepen your Aspiration. Amethyst is your attunement to heart and your remembrance that you were born to unfold your heart’s path home to Source.”
Day Twelve: Fiery Air (Mental Harmony; Lepidolite)
Colloquy: You have moved to the alcove in the circular outer wall of the temple which holds the energies of Lepidolite. You step through the gateway of Lepidolite into the alcove, and the spirit guide of Lepidolite places a sphere of Lepidolite in your hands. The guide speaks: “You have come to a point of openness and readiness where you are ready to be guided by your heart. If you can accept the gifts that flow from Lepidolite and allow them to be established in the temple of your mind and body, then your possibilities are unlimited. It is time to detach from circumstances that monopolize your attention and to cultivate instead a new awakening in the light of Mental Harmony. If your thinking and relationship with life have been based on action and reaction, cause and effect, linear connections between beginnings and endings, then perhaps you are at last ready to benefit from a new way of seeing and being. It is time to explore and master the process by which you can manifest intent and exteriorize it into form. You are living a process of projecting inner intent outward so that it unfolds as the events your life. When the working of this process becomes your focus, then you will see that clear intention is all important. It has been called the “essence of Creation” because it is the foundation from which everything that you can manifest flows. Your intention in any situation will bring about the experience which subsequently arises as your outer life. The direct correlation between intention and manifestation will become clear to you when you can observe your experience systematically. Mental Harmony, the gift of Lepidolite, is based on this clear seeing. Mental Harmony allows you to relinquish obsolete patterns of response that would continue to play themselves out even though they have become irrelevant. Lepidolite allows you to become the conscious master of everything you manifest by making these processes clear to your understanding.
Perhaps you fear to relinquish mental control. Perhaps you fear to let go of the aberrations, anomalies and compulsive thinking that flow from your obsessive mental control. You perhaps fear the balancing influence of the spiritual heart, and so you do not allow it any scope. If such fear has been operative, let go of these notions and these feelings. Release them altogether. Open up to the Mental Harmony that can be yours in this gift of Lepidolite. Embrace your heart path, and allow Lepidolite to harmonize your mind to the guidance of your soul.
(Be reminded of how to practice Clearing, and apply at this point if appropriate. Then be aware of the principles of Affirmation: Building Up A New Presence, and apply as appropriate.)
Go deep within your heart, and with all the power of your soul affirm:
a) My mind is infinite light.
b) My mind and heart are unified.
c) I am open to all possibilities.
d) My mind embraces my soul’s dreams.
Place the Lepidolite crystal on your upper forehead and feel the sacred energy which it establishes there. Allow your mind to silently expand into this harmony. You can use this sacred gift from the body of Mother Earth to re-establish the mind in harmony by actually working with a crystal of Lepidolite or, once the crystal is installed inside the body temple, simply remembering it. Lepidolite is your attunement to harmony in the mind and your remembrance that you were born to bring your mind along heart’s path home to Source.”
Day Thirteen: Airy Air (Mental Balance; Fluorite)
Colloquy: You have moved to the alcove in the circular outer wall of the temple which holds the energies of the South, and of Spirit Earth. You step through the gateway of green Jade or Serpentine, into the alcove, and the spirit guide of Jade (or Serpentine) places a sphere of Jade (or Serpentine) in your hands. The guide speaks: “You have come to a point of openness and readiness where you are ready to be guided by your heart. A new possibility is before you, something which only your heart’s joyous “Yes!” can unpack. The heart power of Mother Earth herself is ready to work with you and in you. If you can accept the fullness of this precious Jade and allow its power to express through your mind-body temple, then your highest dreams can be realized. It is time to detach from circumstances that monopolize your attention. Feel the inner stillness, the sanctity of unconditional love in the sanctuary of your heart. Open to the profound inner peace. Remember who you really are. You will always be able to step back from the heat of the moment and find this space where you are immersed in your heart’s sacred peace. What to do? From this day forward, allow ample time to meditate in the sanctuary of your spiritual heart. Be at peace with everything in your life, and release it to the divine. Embrace the magic of your soul’s dream. Mother Earth offers you this precious Jade as a pledge and a promise. The Mother is your mother, and she is ready to co-create the world with you and in you, to express the wonders of your heart’s dream!
Perhaps you fear the Unknown. Perhaps, because the Divine is unknowable, formless and vast, you fear to surrender to it. You perhaps fear the Force that is expressing the Divine Dream in and through Mother Earth. Perhaps you believe that your forgetfulness of why you were born can still serve you in some way. Or perhaps you still cherish the urge to express aggression through struggle and conflict. If so, let go of these notions and these fearful feelings. Release them altogether. Open up to the Love and the Light that are yours in this gift of Jade. Accept this invitation from the Mother from her Earth body to embrace your heart path.
(Be reminded of how to practice Clearing, and apply at this point if appropriate. Then be aware of the principles of Affirmation: Building Up A New Presence, and apply as appropriate.)
Go deep within your heart, and with all the power of your soul affirm:
a) I honour my dreams
b) I embrace all my feelings and emotions.
c) Divine guidance in my spiritual heart shapes my life.
d) I am one with Earth, one with the Mother’s Force.
Place the Jade crystal between your heart and solar plexus and feel the sacred energy which it establishes there. Place the Jade crystal over the heart and enter the space it opens. Place the crystal over the solar plexus and feel what it brings to this part of your being. See and feel that every part of your body is a beautiful temple. In this alcove of your inner mesa temple, you are attuned to your heart path, and you can always return here for renewal of these energies and this awareness.
You are now ready to do the work that is given to you in sacred time, the work by which you express the divinity of your soul through the material body you have borrowed from Mother Earth. You will use the sacred gifts from the body of Mother Earth and her power in them accomplish this supremely creative expression. Jade is your attunement to heart and your remembrance that you were born to unfold your heart’s path home to Source.”
Day Fourteen: Yang Air (Clearing; Kyanite)
Colloquy: You have moved to the alcove in the circular outer wall of the temple which holds the energies of Kyanite. You step through the gateway of Kyanite into this alcove, and the spirit guide of Kyanite places a sphere of this crystal in your hands. The guide speaks: “A new possibility is before you, something which only your heart’s willingness can unpack. Mother Earth herself is ready to work with you and in you, if you can accept the gift of Clearing which comes to you with this precious Kyanite. Allow its power to bring about a Clearing experience in your mind-body temple. This will support your soul’s aspiration to co-create your inner and outer world so that they can better manifest your soul’s dream. It has become increasingly clear to you that obsolete behaviour patterns have little relevance to your current progress through various phases of self transformation. You will have recognized that your willingness to suspend judgment of yourself and your commitment to live each moment fully help you move through times of testing and discomfort into a place of clarity. As you identify with higher energies, a natural transition takes place and you come into a position where it is possible to focus and direct your energies toward spiritual goals. Clearing is essentially the ability to let go. When you sense or see the Oneness with which all parts of your being are learning to harmonize, you can release and Clear all behaviours, thought patterns and emotions which hold contracted densities of energy. As you say “Yes!” to this process, you naturally invite a Clearing of what has become useless baggage. In consequence, you experience a renewal of your innate enthusiasm, your sense of adventure and your eagerness and curiosity to explore new possibilities of authenticity to your heart and soul. Your higher potential calls you to be all you can, and to release what no longer serves your ascension. One of the most significant phases of Clearing comes when you can let go of the need for approval from others. When you give your power to outsiders’ opinions, you are held in their grasp and your freedom to be yourself melts like ice in sunshine. You will be able to perceive yourself from a space of Clear intent if you can allow Kyanite to cut through artifacts from your emotional past, and to dissolve useless thought forms. By Clearing away disharmony, you to can progressively surrender to the truth of your Oneness with All that Is.
Perhaps you fear dissociation from what is familiar. Perhaps, because the Divine is unknowable, formless and vast, you fear to surrender to it. Perhaps you believe that confusion, mental fog and accretions from the past can still serve you in some way. Or perhaps you still cherish the compromises by which you have diluted your integrity. If so, let go of these notions and these fearful feelings. Release them altogether. Open up to the Clearing action which comes through this gift of Kyanite. Accept this opportunity from the Mother from her Earth body to release everything that no longer serves your heart path home to Oneness with Source.
(Be reminded of how to practice Clearing, and apply at this point if appropriate. Then be aware of the principles of Affirmation: Building Up A New Presence, and apply as appropriate.)
Go deep within your heart, and with all the power of your soul affirm:
a) I am cutting through obscurity.
b) I release the past.
c) I am crystal clear in mind and body.
d) I honour my integrity on all levels.
Place the Kyanite crystal over your ear(s). Feel the Clearning that it brings as it starts to cut away the detritus of the past. See and feel that every part of your body is becoming lighter and more radiant. In this alcove of Kyanite, you are able to experience Clearing of all that no longer serves your higher self. Remember, you can always return here for renewal of these energies and this awareness.
You are now ready to do the work that is given to you in sacred time, the work by which you express the divinity of your soul through the material body you have borrowed from Mother Earth. You can use this sacred gift of Kyanite from the body of Mother Earth to help you accomplish this supremely creative adventure in consciousness. Kyanite is your key to a clear heart and an open mind. In this, it serves your dedication and facilitates your heart’s path home to Source.”
Day Fifteen: Spirit Air (Listening; Celestite)
Colloquy: You have moved to the alcove in the circular outer wall of the temple which holds the energies of Celestite. You step through the gateway of Celestite and move into the alcove. The spirit guide of Celestite places a sphere of this crystal in your hands. The guide speaks: “You have come to a point in your journey where you are ready to discover a new capacity for Listening. This possibility is now before you, but it is something which only your heart’s full acceptance can actualize. Mother Earth herself is ready to work with you and in you, if you can accept this gift of Celestite and its energy. More and more you are learning, as your journey home to Source unfolds, that the teachings from outside yourself have far less importance than the insights you reveal to yourself from within the depths of your own being. The key to intuitive recognition of the truth of your own being (and thus actualize its infallible guidance) is your capacity to Listen. That which you seek is within yourself. It comes into your experience as a discovery, a direct knowing, not something which can be conveyed through a teaching or a book, helpful as these may be in preparing the ground and generating mental receptivity. In order to Listen, you must let go of your preoccupation with the hypnotic play of outer appearances. Your glimpses into the true nature of Being are what you will come more and more to trust. You will learn to find and follow your own Inner Pilot, not the wisdom of others based on their perspectives and their experiences of inner guidance. Only your own deep knowingness can validate what these outer teachers teach. But to find this wisdom which is truly your very own, you must learn to Listen within. Celestite helps you as you strive to Listen to the truth of your own being. The choices which arise from this inner Listening have far more importance for you than the choices that others would make for you, however wise or well intentioned they may be. What you do, based on what you see and hear within, is key to all the learning and growth that this life can offer. What others see and say and the things they would have you do, if not confirmed by your own Listening, cannot take you to a place of completeness and integrity. Others may inspire you, but they are not here to make your choices for you. They may encourage you to listen in the depths of your being and to discern your highest choices, but more than that they cannot do, for it would be interference. Celestite screens out interference as you explore the dynamics of inner Listening. Celestite brings you the clarity of silent openness so that you may access intuitive, inner guidance, beyond your mind’s conditioning or the expectations of those who may be your friends and teachers. This deep Listening will disincline you to defer to the influence of others as you reach your choices about the direction of your life. For your own growth, your soul chose to place your human microcosm in a complex field of possible choices. It was to mastering the art of Listening and learn to pilot your life from your own inner divine guidance that you did this. No one else’s Listening can substitute for your own. No one else’s Wisdom can make you wise. No one else’s choices for you can liberate you. You accepted responsibility for the attainment of mastery, and it is a thing that others cannot do for you. The clarity you seek in the variables of your life comes only when you Listen deeply to the guidance of your own Inner Pilot. Celestite will support every aspect of this process.
Perhaps you fear Silence. Perhaps, because the Divine is Silent and inscrutable, you fear to surrender to it. Perhaps you believe that unawareness and dispersed attention can still serve you in some way. Or perhaps you still cherish the urge to express your mind and ego rather than your soul. If so, let go of these notions and these fearful feelings. Release them altogether. Open up to the dynamics of inner Listening that can be yours in this gift of Celestite. Accept this invitation from Mother Earth body to attune to Source through Listening.
(Be reminded of how to practice Clearing, and apply at this point if appropriate. Then be aware of the principles of Affirmation: Building Up A New Presence, and apply as appropriate.)
Go deep within your heart, and with all the power of your soul affirm:
a) I am divinely guided.
b) I listen within to the messages of my body.
c) I listen within to the guidance of Spirit..
d) I hear and obey my Inner Pilot.
Place the Celestite crystal above your head and feel the sacred energy which it establishes throughout your aura. See and feel that every part of your body is a Listening-post, sensitively attuned to the Love and the Light of the Divine. In this alcove of Celestite, you are attuned to your heart path, and you can always return here for renewal of these energies and this awareness.
When you can Listen to your inner guidance and follow it consistently, you are ready to do the work that is given to you in sacred time, the work by which you express the divinity of your soul through this material body that you have borrowed from Mother Earth. You may use this sacred gift of Celestite from the body of Mother Earth to master the art of inner Listening. Celestite opens and deepens your attunement to Source in this way.”
Day Fifteen: Spirit Air (Inner Journey; Apophyllite)
Colloquy: You have moved to the alcove in the circular outer wall of the temple which holds the energies of the North, and of Aphphyllite. You step through the gateway of Apohphyllite into the alcove, and the spirit guide of Apophyllite places a sphere of Apophyllite in your hands. The guide speaks: “A new possibility is before you, something of which your heart has dreamed for lifetimes. Mother Earth herself is ready to bless you if you can accept this precious Apophyllite and the possibilities it opens. With this gift, your highest dreams can be realized. You may have become aware that the ground rules which govern reality are rapidly changing and that the pace of this transformation is quickening all around you, and within you as well. You may be experiencing things which are real, yet difficult to explain. You must trust your experience and accept it as your own truth even if it defies apparent logic, or the old ways you have known up to now. The old rules no longer apply. You Inner Journey has begun. The energies available to you have accelerated with a momentum which you have never before known and everything around you and within you is being reborn, transformed into a higher harmony of vibrations. Apophyllite helps you to become aware that you are present in more than one reality simultaneously. It opens you to the subtlety of new ranges of perception which constitute your Inner Journey. It helps you to go deeply into your new experience of inner unfolding while releasing attachment to the old. This gift of Apophyllite allows you to embrace new dimensions of experience and to recreate your awareness in a way that can adequately manifest your soul’s Inner Journey.
Perhaps you fear Vastness. Perhaps, because the coming Vastness is unknowable, formless and new, you fear to open yourself to it. Perhaps you believe that your resistance to change can still serve you in some way. Or perhaps you still cherish the urge to hold back and preserve the status quo. You may fear the unknown and thus delay your great adventure in consciousness. If so, let go of these notions and these fearful feelings. Release them altogether. Open up to guiding the Light that can be yours in this gift of Apophyllite. Accept this invitation from the Mother from her Earth body to embrace your Inner Journey.
(Be reminded of how to practice Clearing, and apply at this point if appropriate. Then be aware of the principles of Affirmation: Building Up A New Presence, and apply as appropriate.)
Go deep within your heart, and with all the power of your soul affirm:
a) I open myself to Vastness.
b) I am the drop of awareness entering the ocean of infinite consciousness.
c) I expand my awareness in all directions.
d) I journey through all dimensions of existence.
e) I embrace the adventure of consciousness for which I took birth.
Place the Apophyllite crystal at the position of your crown chakra and feel the sacred energy which it establishes there. Feel this energy flowing down into your body and mind, filling them with light, lightness and opening. See and feel that every part of your body is a beautiful temple and that you are glowing with enhanced awareness in all parts of your being, including your intuitive feelings.
You are now ready to express the divinity of your soul through the material body you have borrowed from Mother Earth. You can use the sacred gift of Apophyllite to accomplish this supremely creative expression. Apophyllite is your opening to the Inner Journey and your inner way-finder as you unfold your heart’s path home to Source.”
Day Sixteen: Yin Air (Peace; Blue Lace Agate)
Colloquy: You have moved to the alcove in the circular outer wall of the temple which holds the energies of Blue Lace Agate. You step through the gateway of Blue Lace Agate into the alcove, and the spirit guide of Blue Lace Agate places a sphere of Blue Lace Agate in your hands. The guide speaks: “You have come to a point of readiness when you are ready to discover a new depth of Peace. This is something which only your heart’s acceptance can bring to be. The heart power of Mother Earth herself is ready to work with you if you can accept the gift of Blue Lace Agate and allow its energy to inform the temple of your mind and body. Up to now, your security has been centered in your mind’s urge to take control and establish dominance. If you can let go of this need to control, and when you no longer need to react to events outside you, then you are ready to receive the Peace which Blue Lace Agate brings. As long as your ego uses your mind to maintain dominance, then you will be living an experience of separation and in this self-serving orientation you will not be able to experience your Oneness with all creation.
Your choices co-create the world. Your every thought, choice, feeling and action add to the energy of the whole, and even the attitudes you cherish are part of your contribution. Energetically, you can step beyond the separativity of your small self, and build a world of Oneness. Blue Lace Agate supports your discovery of Peace, the peace that surpasses all the notions of the ego, the mind and the small self they serve. The level of peace which lies before you is to be found in opening to Oneness.
Perhaps you fear the Stagnation which is the counterfeit and opposite of true Peace. You perhaps fear the Force that is expressing the Divine Dream on Earth. Perhaps you believe that agitation, stress and noice still serve you in some way, or are inevitable concomitants of modern life. But now, with Blue Lace Agate, you can let go of these notions and fears that support them. Open your mind and heart to Peace which is the gift of Blue Lace Agate.
(Be reminded of how to practice Clearing, and apply at this point if appropriate. Then be aware of the principles of Affirmation: Building Up A New Presence, and apply as appropriate.)
Go deep within your heart, and with all the power of your soul affirm:
e) I release stress from all parts of my being.
f) I abide in Peace.
g) My tranquility expands in all directions.
h) I live for the Oneness of all creation.
Place the Blue Lace Agate crystal between your heart and throat and feel the quality of Peace which it makes possible. Enter the space of consciousness which Blue Lace Agate opens. Place the crystal over the solar plexus and feel what it brings to this part of your being. See and feel that every part of your body abides in Peace. Remember, you can always return to this experience of Peace for inner renewal.
Peace, the gift of Blue Lace Agate, supports the work that your soul has chosen to do in sacred time, the work by which you express divinity through the material body you have borrowed from Mother Earth. Blue Lace Agate is a key for attunement to your spiritual heart and its timeless Peace. In this way, it shows you your heart’s path home to Source.”
Day Seventeen: Watery Air (Freedom; Azurite)
Colloquy: You have moved to the alcove in the circular outer wall of the temple which holds the energies of Azurite. You step through the gateway of Azurite, into the alcove, and the spirit guide Azurite places a sphere of Azurite in your hands. The guide speaks: “You have come to a point of openness and readiness where you are ready for an experience of complete and unconditional Freedom A new possibility is before you. Through the energies of Azurite, Mother Earth herself is ready to work with you. If you can accept the gift of Freedom that Azurite brings and allow it to express through your mind and body, then you can taste Freedom. It is time to detach from all that no longer supports your fullness of being. You have banqueted at the table of life and had many delectable experiences. Over and over again you have tasted and digested what life has to offer. It is a ritual that can be repeated endlessly. But having satisfied yourself with so many variations of experience, your need to keep going back to the table and filling your plate with more such experience may be waning. You may not have the hunger you once had. You may be quite happy not going back for more. You may be ready to taste the bliss of pure being, having released yourself from the craving for experience. If so, Azurite is for you. It brings you the Stillness of Pure Being. Azurite assists you to achieve utter clarity by letting go of what no longer serves your growth. Can you let go of all the distortions that you were taught to believe? Can you release the illusions with which you moulded your thinking? Can you strip away everything that you have assembled to clothe and cover the spark of your Divinity? Up to now, you have been wedded to the gospel of scarcity and limitation based on guilt and fear, perhaps re-enforced by the sense of sin. To transcend all that, you can now choose the gift of Freedom. For with Azurite, you come to a place in your journey where everything you once held sacred is weighed in the balance and ready for release. This is the stage to which you have come. This is the insight you must reach before the real ascent can begin. Strip yourself of everything that supports the fiction which you have called your reality. Dare to be empty and to be Free. Azurite can help you to do this.
Perhaps you fear Disillusion. Perhaps, because the world is filled with mistrust, you feel validated by taking refuge in your own mental constructions and social conditioning. You perhaps fear to release the ancestral patterns of reactivity that have distorted the Divine Dream that Mother Earth is bringing you. Perhaps you believe that your self contraction can still serve you in some way. Or perhaps you still cherish the urge to feed more cravings at the great feast of the outer life. Azurite shows you that you can only be truly happy when you are inwardly Free. Open up to the interior Freedom that can be yours in this gift of Azurite. Accept this gift from the Mother Earth body to embrace your heart’s dream of total Freedom.
(Be reminded of how to practice Clearing, and apply at this point if appropriate. Then be aware of the principles of Affirmation: Building Up A New Presence, and apply as appropriate.)
Go deep within your heart, and with all the power of your soul affirm:
a) My mind is a mirror of Spirit
b) I release my slavery to outworn beliefs
c) I release old programs.
d) My inner being is a clean slate for all that I can dream.
Place the Azurite crystal between your throat and feel the sacred energy which it establishes there. Then, place the Azurite crystal over your brow chakra and enter the space it opens. Feel what this energy of Azurite brings to your being. See and feel that every part of your body is a beautiful temple. Azurite frees you to follow your heart path, and you can always return to it for renewal of these energies and this awareness.
You are now ready to do the work that is given to you in sacred time, the work by which you express the divinity of your soul through the material body you have borrowed from Mother Earth.
Day Eighteen: Earthy Air (Understanding; Sodalite)
Colloquy: You have moved to the alcove in the circular outer wall of the temple which holds the energies of Sodalite. You step through the gateway of Sodalite into the alcove, and the spirit guide Sodalite places a sphere of Sodalite in your hands. The guide speaks: “You have come to a point where you are ready to embrace a deeper level of Understanding. Mother Earth is ready to support this if you can accept the fullness of this Sodalite. True understanding comes from living your lessons, assimilating your experiences, not merely intellectualizing things in theory. As a unit of consciousness, you volunteered to explore experiences of turmoil, to take on fragmentation and emotional limitation in order to explore various aspects of the theme of separation from Source. You evolved an ego so that you could take in the drama of many kinds of experience and have repeated learning opportunities in the school of separation from your divine essence. Now is the moment of potential karmic resolution. Now you can shift that pattern. Now you can change your self image into one that more closely resembles your soul’s vision of your full possibility. Knowing this is indispensable if you want to grow in awareness. You can now unmask separation and self-limitation for the illusions they really are. Your growth and that of others must, however be founded in experience rather than mere theory. Therefore, resist the inclination to intervene and to save others from what they must learn by the lessons that come through direct experience. Your well-meaning advice is no substitute for the experiences they must feel and digest first hand. Remember, you cannot walk in another’s shoes, nor would you want to deny them the invaluable lessons they have arranged for their inner development. Freedom to choose is essential, for the consequences that flow from the choices we make are part of what we must all learn. In time, the issues that were once your nemesis can no longer hook your energy and the dramas that used to entrain your attention now leave you indifferent. You see the symbols at work behind these scenarios and your Understanding embraces the lessons to which the experiences point. Sodalite deepens your capacity to understand patterns and to be free of their underlying karmic issues. You see and know that the real issue is the underlying energy in the form of emotion which reveals intent. By purifying intent, you master these energies. Sodalite empowers your Understanding so that you can put this into practice.
Perhaps you fear Retribution for your previous choices and this has clouded your Understanding until now. Perhaps, because Understanding makes you responsible for all your choices, you fear to surrender claim it. Perhaps you believe that your mental clutter, your self constraint and self censure can still serve you in some way. Or perhaps you still cherish the notion that ignorance is bliss. The world around you will re-enforce the perception that you are a limited ego for as long as you seek its consensus. Perhaps it is time to let go of these notions and these fearful feelings. Release them altogether. Open up to the Understanding that accompanies the gift of Socalite. Accept this gift from Mother Earth and embrace your highest Understanding.
(Be reminded of how to practice Clearing, and apply at this point if appropriate. Then be aware of the principles of Affirmation: Building Up A New Presence, and apply as appropriate.)
Go deep within your heart, and with all the power of your soul affirm:
a) I link my mind and heart in the light of Understanding.
b) My mind is a sea of peace.
c) My fearless heart embraces the fullness of Truth.
Place the Sodalite crystal between two hands and envision your entire physical body inside this Sodalite. Enter into the space that Sodalite opens in your awareness. See and feel that every part of your body is glowing with the light of Understanding, your cellular intelligence is fully awakened. Sodalite shows you your own truth, and you can always turn to it for renewal of this awareness.
You are now ready to do the work that is given to you in sacred time, the work by which you express the divinity of your soul through the material body you have borrowed from Mother Earth. You will use this gift of Sodalite from the body of Mother Earth to help you accomplish this supremely significant accomplishment. Sodalite is your key to Understanding through which you can unfold your heart’s path home to Source.”
Day Eighteen: Earthy Air (Courage; Chrysoprase)
Colloquy: You have moved to the alcove in the circular outer wall of the temple which holds the energies of Chrysoprase. You step through the gateway of Chrysoprase into the alcove, and the spirit guide of Chrysoprase places a sphere of Chrysoprase in your hands. The guide speaks: “You have come to a point in your progress where you are ready to be initiated into a deeper level of courage. The power of Mother Earth herself is ready to work with you and in you through the gift of Chrysoprase. As your consciousness expands, many or most of the familiar guide posts from the past are left behind. Only if you trust your own experience and not external reference points can you continue to grow in awareness. No longer does your ego require external validation. In the phase you are entering, it is your own instinctive knowingness, birthed through direct and unique experience that counts for most. You are the only expert on you. The consensus structures of the past no longer serve to orient you, at the frontiers of your awakened consciousness. Repeatedly you must let go of mental conditioning, the consensus thinking in which you were schooled and rely instead on your own experience. You are moving into uncharted territory. It requires courage to continue forward when you come to this place in your development because increasingly you become your own frame of reference. In this, you are more alone that you have ever been at any previous time, and there is no one to hold your hand or guide you. This journey beyond the separate self into Oneness must be made in solitude. No one else knows you as you know yourself; you are the world’s expert on you. It is thus for all who dare to go beyond the collective awareness into this uncharted territory. You have let go of the need to validate yourself with reference to the expectations of others and by honoring your own inner truth and relying on your own inner guidance you have released yourself from collective conditioning. It takes Courage to create a space wherein you are free to implement your own true choices. You can bring forward the necessary Courage to be self reliant and this gift of Chrysoprase will support your choice and sustains you as you move into the unknown.
Perhaps you have feared up until now to take a stand. You perhaps fear that you may not have what it takes to fulfill your soul’s mission in this lifetime. Perhaps you believe that conformity can still serve you in some way. Or perhaps you still cherish the idea that dependence on others or avoidance of controversy are necessary forms of compromise. If so, let go of these notions and these fearful feelings. Release them altogether. Open up to the Courage which is the gift of Chrysoprase. Accept this gift from Mother Earth and be strengthened to go forward on your heart path.
(Be reminded of how to practice Clearing, and apply at this point if appropriate. Then be aware of the principles of Affirmation: Building Up A New Presence, and apply as appropriate.)
Go deep within your heart, and with all the power of your soul affirm:
a) I dare to be myself.
b) I have the courage to do the necessary.
c) My mind is centred in my heart.
d) The courage to love fills my heart.
Place the Chrysoprase crystal between your heart and solar plexus and feel the sacred energy which it establishes there. Let this energy expand through your entire being. Feel the strength and Courage that flow from Chrysoprase. See and feel that your body is a beautiful temple, glowing with inner power. You can always return to Chrysoprase for renewal of these energies and this awareness.
You are now ready to fulfill your soul’s dream in sacred time, and complete the work by which you express Spirit through the material body you have borrowed from Mother Earth. Chrysoprase is your key to unlimited Courage and your renewed will to move ever forward as you unfold your heart’s path to Oneness with Source.”
