Pink Light Meditation

This meditation uses Pink Light, and is especially useful when you are angry with someone or are feeling upset towards someone. It can also be used to heal broken hearts, and to give someone that extra boost if they are feeling down. It can also be used when you would just like to send someone a little extra LOVE.

First, put yourself into a meditative state, using a breathing technique, or other form of relaxation method of your choice.

When you feel you are relaxed and ready for visualization, begin by forming a *Sphere of Energy & Protection.

Once you are energized, grounded and protected in your Sphere Of Energy & Protection, visualize the person that you are having problems with, or whomever it is that you will be sending light to. Once you have them in your mind's eye, visualize them in their own protective sphere, but allow there to be communication between the two of you. The goal is to ask them to come to you, then offer them protection from outside sources, and then allow space for you to do your work. This process need not be as intense as building your own personal sphere, and should be quite easy to visualize.

Once you are ready, visualize your Heart Chakra opening. This is much like a flower, opening it's petals. As your Heart Chakra begins to open, visualize the softest, most loving, pure PINK light, coming from your heart, and send it directly to the other persons heart. Feel this light of love flow from you, into their Heart Chakra. You can visualize this however feels comfortable to you. Let this connection flow for as long as it needs to. You may converse with the other person if you so feel. You may have whatever interaction you feel appropriate. (sometimes with people you are having difficulty with, you may find yourself arguing with the person or trying to solve the issues. Try not to think too hard about this, instead, focus that pink light on them and allow it to heal you both.) You will feel when you are ready to stop. (This exchange may be emotional. Especially if you have issues with the person, this can be a very healing experience. Allow yourself the space to feel every emotion without attachment.)

Once you feel you have sent all the light the other person can take, slowly let the flow stop. Thank the person for allowing you to send them pink light, and stop the flow completely. Release them from their sphere and allow them to go back from which they came.

Once they have left you, begin to bring yourself back. You have the option of releasing your sphere of protection, step by step. First the blue light, then the gold light and finally the white light. Or, you may keep the light with you to keep you energized throughout the day, or you may send any extra energy to the Earth that you do not feel you need or want.

Once you have accomplished the releasing and are ready to come fully back to reality, slowly open your eyes and take a minute before you get up and walk around. This can be a powerful meditation which may leave you feeling light headed or spacey. Bringing yourself back with with a little food or drink is helpful.

Enjoy!

Sphere of Energy & Protection

Sphere of Energy & Protection: This meditation offers energy, grounding, protection and sacred space to do work in.

We begin by calling in White Light from the Central Sun of the Universe, to come in through the top of your head, filling your body with pure white light. This light will connect you with the spiritual center of the Universe. Let the light flow through you, filing your entire being with light, energizing you. Let the light flow out of your pores, surrounding your body in a perfect sphere of white light. When you feel that you and your sphere are full enough, allow the white light to stop flowing, and say something along the lines of, "I ask the White Light of the Universe to fill me, surround me, guide me and protect me, thank you."

Now, visualize Gold Light, from the Center of the Earth, to come up from the ground, through your feet, filling you with the most beautiful gold light you have ever seen. This gold light will anchor you to the earth, grounding you. Allow this light to fill your being with gold light, mixing with the white light, until you are a being of pure white and gold light. Allow the gold light to flow out of your body, mixing with the white light, until your sphere is also full of gold and white light, grounding you to Mother Earth. When you feel that you and your sphere are full enough, allow the gold light to stop flowing, and say something along the lines of, "I ask the Gold Light from the Center of the Earth to fill me, surround me, guide me and protect me, thank you."

Now, we add the final protection. We call in the most brilliant electric blue, from the hottest summer day, to come to us and surround our sphere in a shield of electric sizzling blue light. See the electricity popping across the surface, allowing nothing to penetrate your sphere, giving you a safe and sacred space to do your work. (It is sometimes advised to leave a small space open at the top of your sphere for messages to come through, sort of like sitting inside of a large Christmas ornament.) Once you feel your sphere is protected enough, say something along the lines of, "I am now protected. This is now sacred space. I allow messages to come though from my guides and teachers (if you so desire). I do this for the good of all, according to the free will of all, so be it."

Now that you are energized, grounded and protected in your sacred space, you are ready to go, and may chose to do whatever you like, be it meditation, spellwork, or just going on with your day.

**************

When you have finished your work, you may begin to bring yourself back to waking reality.

You have the option of releasing your sphere of protection, step by step. First the blue light, then the gold light and finally the white light. Or, you may keep the light with you to keep you energized throughout the day, or you may send any extra energy to the Earth that you do not feel you need or want.

Once you have accomplished the releasing, and/or are ready to come fully back to reality, slowly open your eyes and take a minute before you get up and walk around. This can be a powerful meditation which may leave you feeling light headed or spacey if you are inexperienced. Bringing yourself back with with a little food or drink is helpful.

Enjoy!

Look At All The Love We Found

One day a young man was standing in the middle of the town proclaiming that he had the most beautiful heart in the whole valley. A large crowd gathered and they all admired his heart for it was perfect. There was not a mark or a flaw in it. Yes, they all agreed it truly was the most beautiful heart they had ever seen.

The young man was very proud and boasted more loudly about his beautiful heart.

Suddenly, an old man appeared at the front of the crowd and
said "Why your heart is not nearly as beautiful as mine."

The crowd and the young man looked at the old man's heart. It was beating strongly, but full of scars, it had places where pieces had been removed and other pieces put in, but they didn't fit quite right and there were several jagged edges. In fact, in some places there were deep gouges where whole pieces were
missing.

The people stared -- how can he say his heart is more beautiful,
they thought?

The young man looked at the old man's heart and saw its state
and laughed. "You must be joking," he said. "Compare your heart with mine, mine is perfect and yours is a mess of scars and tears." "Yes," said the old man, "Yours is perfect looking but I would never trade with you.

You see, every scar represents a person to whom I have given my love - I tear out a piece of my heart and give it to them, and often they give me a piece of their heart which fits into the empty place in my heart, but because the pieces aren't exact, I have some rough edges, which I cherish, because they remind me of the love we shared. Sometimes I have given pieces of my
heart away, and the other person hasn't returned a piece of his heart to me.

These are the empty gouges -- giving love is taking a chance. Although these gouges are painful, they stay open, reminding me of the love I have for these people too, and I hope someday they may return and fill the space I have waiting. So now do you see what true beauty is?"

The young man stood silently with tears running down his cheeks. He walked up to the old man, reached into his perfect young and beautiful heart, and ripped a piece out. He offered it to the old man with trembling hands. The old man took his
offering, placed it in his heart and then took a piece from his old scarred heart and placed it in the wound in the young man's heart. It fit, but not perfectly, as there were some jagged edges.

The young man looked at his heart, not perfect anymore but more beautiful than ever, since love from the old man's heart flowed into his. They embraced and walked away side by side.

How sad it must be to go through life with a whole heart.
