Selenite Meditation

This meditation calls apon Selenite's property of 'alignment'

When you're ready, free yourself of the daily, physical world and prepare yourself in your usual way for meditation.

Visualise a gigantic rod of Selenite gently entering your space. See it's clean, white lines and linear structure as it moves closer. They are like fibre optic cables, fine rods that transmit light from one end to the other.

The Selenite moves slowly and freely closer to you, and you allow it to hover over you. It attracts a beam of universal light which it then transmits down to you, so you are enveloped in a column of gentle white light.

Feel it tingle and release any tension and blockages as it gradually passes from the top of your head down through to your feet.

Visualise stretching your hands out to play with the light, running your fingers around to find that the beam of light is made up of many rods of light. Close your hands around one of the rods and become one with the Selenite. Feel yourself in perfect balance in space and time, with equal forces holding you above and below.

Ask the Selenite to show you that which you are free to move away from, and allow it to move into the distance of your vision. Then turn to the future, and see the bright light of positivity that shines on the way ahead. Ask for guidance and confirmation to take with you.

Stay in the light until you feel ready and comfortable to return

Celestite Air Meditation

PREPARATION

Place a Celestite crystal to the East of where you're sitting. Alternatively, you could hold the crystal – try it and see what works for you.
You may also wish to light a candle that can burn safely while you meditate, and have that in the East too. I associate the colour yellow with Air and the East – but go with what makes sense to you.
Sit facing East (preferably on a cushion or chair if you need back support, to avoid physical distraction from your meditation). Settle yourself into a comfortable position and read through the meditation to familiarise yourself with it.

THE MEDITATION
Sit or lie comfortably, facing East. Close your eyes and shift into a meditative state in your preferred way.

Imagine that there is a semi-circle on the floor that spans around you from you’re the North at your left side round behind you to your right and the South. Visualise it as a yellow line on the floor. Gradually imagine that arc rising over you, shrouding you in safety, rising as a dome that covers you in a protective shell. It passes behind you, over you and slowly down in front of you until it gently touches the floor in front of you and you are completely contained within a sealed dome.

Settle yourself into this safe stillness.

Gradually you become aware of the air around you and the implications of being inside a sealed dome. Your focus turns to your breathing, and that the air around you is becoming stale. Contemplate a sense of restriction. Before you suffer at all, you see that the dome is rising from the ground in front of you, lifting to reveal a panoramic view of wide open space. This is a place of freedom for you. How does it appear to you? Is it sky, or a landscape you recognise?

Enjoy inhaling the fresh air, picking up evocative scents. Feel the air move around you – is it a light breeze or stronger? Each breath of this clear air is true inspiration. Clean, free air flows freely into you, filling you with fresh oxygen that tingles through your body, feeding your body and mind.

The tingling sensation increases and you rise up from the ground. Do you float above the ground, or fly away? Explore this freedom and what it means to you.

You move forward through the air, gathering momentum until you see a castle. Study it as you approach, admiring its architecture. This is your Air Castle, where your ideas and dreams form and are stored. How do you view it? Explore inside. Does it need a spring clean? Or is it standing firmly, defending your ideas and ideals? Wander the passage ways, spotting relics and reminders of inspired ideas you’ve had.

You come to a large stained glass window with an altar in front of it. A rising sun is streaming through the window. Stand at your altar, preparing yourself for a new day and a fresh start. Make a promise to the deity on your altar, and accept a gift of an object lying on the altar for you.

Leave your Air Castle when you are ready, and move swiftly through the air, returning to your circle. Gently land back where your physical body is seated.

Slowly adjust you to your everyday surroundings. Return to thoughts to your breathing, and slowly come back to normal consciousness.

Aquamarine Water Meditation

Here's a crystal meditation I have written about the Water element, inspired by Aquamarine.


PREPARATION



Place an Aquamarine crystal to the West of where you're sitting. Alternatively, you could hold the crystal – try it and see what works for you.
You may also wish to light a candle that can burn safely while you meditate, and have that in the West too. I associate the colour blue with Water and the West – but go with what makes sense to you.
Sit facing West (preferably on a cushion or chair if you need back support, to avoid physical distraction from your meditation). Settle yourself into a comfortable position and read through the meditation to familiarise yourself with it.






THE MEDITATION



Sit or lie comfortably, facing West. Close your eyes and shift into a meditative state in your preferred way.
Imagine that there is a semi-circle on the floor that spans around you from South to North, your left side round behind you to your right. Visualise it as a blue line on the floor. Gradually visualise that arc rising over you, shrouding you in safety, rising as a dome that covers you in a protective shell. It passes behind you, over you and slowly down in front of you until it gently touches the floor in front of you and you are completely contained within an echoey dome.
Settle yourself into this safe stillness. Focus on the life-force that runs through your body and being. Swallow and connect with your digestive system. Turn your attention further inward, to your heartbeat and pulse, visualise the rhythmic throb of the blood that flows through you. Relax and be still.Slowly you become aware of a shift in temperature and of the soft caress of water around you. Your inner vision opens to see that you are sat on the surface of an expanse of water within the dome. You gaze at the water – observing its colour, temperature and your response to its presence.
You shift a little and hear and see the ripple of lapping waves that you’ve created and now radiate out from you. Each little wave carries a heartfelt emotion from within you. Watch the little ripples you create in your environment and understand the affect that you have.
Now that you’ve adjusted to being in the water, slowly let yourself be lowered safely down and emerge yourself in the water world below you – be as deep in it as you feel comfortable. Move freely now in the water, becoming one with it, absorbing its life-giving energy and cleansing power.
You feel a current build within the water that starts to carry you on a journey. Enjoy the freedom of movement and self-expression. What does this freedom mean to you?
Connect with the elementals of the water and the creatures that swim beside you. What do they bring to you?
Allow your emotions to rise freely within you. What have you been holding onto that you’re now safe to release?
Imagine yourself absorbing clear, fluid energy that cleanses every cell of your being, relieving you of any discomfort. Sense a fresh tingle run through you.
The water’s movement calms, settling around you and you slowly float to the surface. Rest on the surface, enjoying a new stillness.
When you are ready, visualise the dome rising over you, slowly adjusting you to your everyday surroundings. Return to thoughts to your breathing, and slowly come back to normal consciousness.
