For this ritual you're going to need a couple of things.
So the first thing that you're going to need is some time do
this ritual. When you at least have half an
hour, half an hour just to be. Once you've done the ritual you
can use these tools at any point and you can apply them with any
amount of time. But for the first time, at least
have some time. Thing that you're going to need
is clear space. So you need space where you're
not going to be interrupted where you can really go into
your own inner experience. So you might need to create that
in some way. Ask your people to give you some
space. Go take a little walk.
And when you found your space, clear your space.
Give thanks to the Case. And in whatever way makes sense
to you, you can attune to your space a little bit.
And I like to kind of Imagine That from the space inside me.
There is like an emanating bubble of light or something
that's flowing out into the space, around me.
And in whatever way, again, makes sense.
You might want to do this through prayer.
You can do it through. Out loud, you can just imagine
it or think about it. You can imagine that the space
is here to support you and to support this process.
Sometimes there are energies in a space and energy is could be
memories. They could be clutter.
They could be entities of some kind ghosts Spirits guides.
So you might also in your emanating, bubble of light.
Create a kind of membrane and you can imagine that that
membrane is protective and its protective of your clear space
and any energies that are going to enter, it are beneficial and
anything that is not beneficial will be held outside of it.
So if you got a big pile of clutter sitting somewhere and
it's going to distract you, you imagine a membrane between you
and that clutter and you go. Okay.
Thanks for being there. I'm going to get to you someday,
but for now my Energy is with myself.
My energy is with this experience and I don't get
distracted. I won't get pulled in.
Whatever way makes sense to you. You can invite in the assistance
of any spiritual connections that you feel.
So you might take a moment and imagine your ancestors, your
ancestral helpers. Any connections that?
You have two people in your lineage.
This doesn't necessarily need to be your family of origin.
It could be people that you just really feel connected to, you
really feel connected to their Essence who have passed on, and
you might connect to the idea of guides.
So guides can be all kinds of different.
Beings Angelic beings animal beings plant, beings alien
beings. This is an imagination, so you
Invite guidance in, you can go, I really would love to connect
with the higher vibration of Venus.
You know, any venusian beings that are here.
Please come and talk to me or something like that.
So, be playful, be curious, and invite any kind of spiritual
assistance. That you would like.
The other thing that you're going to need is a pen and
paper, and I would recommend having a large ish sheet of
paper. At least, normal like printer,
paper size 8 and a half by eleven, not too small.
Nothing too small. If you have a big sheet of
paper, that's awesome because you might need it and it will be
good for you to feel kind of unconstrained and your movement.
Unlined papers, always my preference but you know you
sweat, you have use what you have.
So even if it's just a big piece of cardboard or something like
that, some newsprint. All of that is good.
You'll want instruments for writing with pencils, pens
markers, Etc. So then we'll begin.
And as I mentioned before, you might want to take a moment to
call in your spiritual guides connect with your space.
And then, let's really just gets entered in ourselves and to get
centered in ourselves. Let's begin with the breath,
take a couple of deep breaths in and out.
I like to breathe through my nose and exhale, out my mouth.
And in the breathing through my nose.
I invite my breath to come in and touch the entire inner
surface of my lungs. So I breathe in a
three-dimensional shape to the front and to the back and to the
sides all the way up and down. And then, as I exhale, out my
mouth. Just sighing sound is so
relieving. And when we sigh, we give our
bodies permission to relax and so you might want to take a
couple more breaths, inhaling through your nose or through
your mouth, allowing the breath to fill your body in a
3-dimensional sphere, three-dimensional shape.
And exhaling. I spent many years studying with
a man named Richard Freeman. And I'm so much love for him.
And for all of his teachings. He had such a beautiful voice.
And when we would start meditation or when he would be
going to Dharma talk. Sometimes we would just start
like this with breathing and he would remind us all.
You're just no one doing nothing going nowhere.
Not as a cynical reminder as offering or gesture of pure
generosity because no one doing nothing going nowhere.
You breathe in, you breathe in this present moment.
Here. You are in the space and this
time living in a body breathing a breath.
And as you exhale, you let it all go time and space will
continue to flow on change endlessly.
You can let go of all of the things that you are responsible
for, In This Moment. All of the little items of
control really trying to feel yourself Here and Now Breathe
into your front and your back. Try and feel both directions.
Breathe into your up and to your down and try and feel both
directions. Breathing to your left and to
your right and try and peel both directions.
And now, we'll just use some light touch and I'm going to
invite touch with both hands upon each other.
So, you can rub your hands together.
You can feel the touch of your palms together, give your hands
and your fingers, little bit of a massage can feel the bones of
your fingers in your hands. All of these, tiny comparatively
tiny bones, how they connect to each other and your finger
joints. Feel how your fingers are so
long. They don't just stop at what
looks like their base, but they continue all the way through
your hand. Feel the long bones in your
hand, the long finger bones. And feel your wrists.
And if you are gentle with your touch and use one hand to
palpate the opposite wrist and as you use your hand, you can
feel the movement of the wrist. And your wrist.
Of course is where your carpal bones are.
And these bones are small pebble like bones that are stacked in
relationship to each other almost like a bridge.
So there's A little bit of an arch that you might feel kind of
at the base of your wrist between the long bones of your
thumb, and your baby finger or right at the base of your middle
finger. And then feel how your forearms
have two bones and these two bones are in relationship to
each other. In such a way that allows a
spiraling or rotating. And the thumb side of your
forearm rotates or radiates around the little finger side.
And if you can feel with one hand to the other arm, these two
bones, one connects your little, the little finger side of your
hand, to your elbow point and the other connects the thumb
side of your hand, to your inner elbow.
And if you turn your palms around, you turn them in
different directions. You can feel how the Side, bone
rolls and rotates over the little finger side bone.
He might feel your elbow joints. Feel the bones and the points of
your elbow, and notice how the two bones of your forearm after
the elbow. Give way to the one bone of your
upper arm. And when I get to my upper arms,
I always like to give a little bit of a squeeze to the muscles
their biceps and triceps. You're like me, they're kind of
soft and Squishy. Give your arms a massage and the
deltoids. Their muscles that are kind of
the round shape muscles over your shoulder joint.
And then spread your arms out to the sides.
And turn your palms up and turn your palms down and feel the
spiral of your arms that moves from your hands.
Your fingers all the way into your shoulder socket and then
you might take one arm up and kind of wave it around or you
might want to stretch through your side body and feel how your
arm connects to your collarbones and your What are blades?
Move around between both sides and as you move an arm up or you
kind of take it for a stretch, your lungs, start to move?
So your shoulder, slides on top of your ribs and your ribs
connect to your spine. And as you move your arms and
stretch through your sides, you're moving your ribs, and
then you're moving your lungs. And So, you could combine this
with your deep breaths. And as you move, your arms
around and just feel free to explore.
And we're warming up our hands. We're warming up our arms, and
we're warming up our breath for this ritual.
So, as you explore, just do, what?
Feels good. Kind of fan your fingers, rotate
your wrists. Deep breaths extend and spread
through your wingspan. When the arms move up, you might
feel like my legs and pelvis can move down.
Get a delicious stretch, across your spine.
Feel free to move your spine, move your ribs, rotate around
finds the relationship between your torso and your fingertips.
Breathing, in your 3-dimensional sphere, you might breathe all
the way out into the tips of your fingers.
And then when you're ready, bring your hands to your chest
and see if you can feel the beating of your heart.
And let's set the intention that anything that gets expressed
through the hands will bring us into a deeper connection with
our heart. And take a very big deep breath
and alongside out. And remember that your heart is
so big that your heart, is that your energetic heart, the heart
that loves is capable of loving across time and space.
That your heart is truly wise that when you're very connected
to your heart. It's when you're making the best
decisions from a place of love. And then, when you're ready.
Pick up your pen or marker or pencil and we're going to start
off using the dominant hand. So the hands that you usually
write with and we'll take five minutes.
And at the end of five minutes, you'll hear a bell.
And in these first five minutes, your invitation is to write
freely. And to get it off your chest.
Okay, so anything that now needs to be expressed.
Anything that you're you've been worrying about anything that's
up on your mind, anything that needs to come out can come out.
And if you need a prompt then Begin by, this is what I've been
thinking about and then let It Go.
Don't edit as you write begin. Whenever you're ready.
Don't punctuate. Don't edit.
Don't worry about what you're writing.
This is only for you. All right.
Take whatever you need to complete and if you need more
time, just pause the recording take more time.
If you're ready to complete, then just put your pen down and
either turn your page over. So if you've filled one page,
that's great. If you feel more than one page,
just set them to a side, get a clear blank sheet in front of
you, and then put your pen or your pencil.
Only marker down on that sheet of paper and just let your hands
rest, close your eyes and let's take a couple deep breaths again
and let all that information go. So, as we take these couple
breaths, let's just acknowledge any thoughts that have been
filling the airwaves recently. And again, feel the
three-dimensional shape of your breath, the way that it moves
out and around. And then, I'd like you to
imagine all of those thoughts from your head, and from the
dominant hand turning into vapor.
And they're just kind of like dissipating out of you.
And so you could imagine all the thoughts floating out of your
skull. You might imagine all the words
come tumbling out through your hand pouring down into the
ground floating up and dissolving into the atmosphere.
All the thoughts of your conscious mind kind of
dissipating. They've been acknowledged, you
know, where they are. You can come back if you need.
And then bring your attention into the length of your
non-dominant. Arm non-dominant hand.
And feel where that arm connects to your collarbone to your
shoulder blade. To your ribs.
And how the ribs wrap around your heart and use Touch of it's
helpful and get a clearer imaginative pathway between the
tips of your fingers, all the way up through your arm and into
your heart. And as you breathe, imagine that
your heart space is expanding. Just like your breath and a
three dimensional orb. And from the center of your
heart, there is this big growing glowing orb of inspiration
protection and intuition. So the space of pure knowing
That originates right at the center of the heart and that
moves all the way out into your non-dominant arm through the
tips of the fingers into a beautiful glowing sphere all the
way around you. That imagery doesn't work for
you, make it your own, but into the sphere into the space.
I'd like you to invite your higher self.
And however, you imagine your higher self.
The part of you that is Ageless Timeless, that is much bigger
than your Earthly identity that has lived.
So many lifetimes that has traveled into the farthest
reaches of space. The part of you that is
infinitely wise. The part of you that knows
exactly what your intention is for this lifetime with the seed,
intention is for this life. Can you imagine that being now
stepping into this sphere into this space that you're in?
Imagine that being coming all the way around you.
And I imagine them coming from the back.
And kind of wrapping if they have arms can wrapping their
arms or wrapping their sphere of protection around you coming
into your heart space. Feel the connection from your
heart center into this. Kind of infinite, heart infinite
intention and then imagine that they are going to move into your
non-dominant hand. And so, if you're imagining them
as a human being then, maybe their arm is connecting to your
arm into your hand. If you imagine them as something
other than human than their energy is coming into your body
flowing, through your heart, and through your non-dominant hand.
So now we'll begin writing or drawing.
And from this place. The invitation is to connect
automatically. There are a couple ways you can
continue here. The ways that I like to continue
have to do with posing a question.
You can write your question down or you can speak it out loud.
I'd suggest beginning with your non-dominant hand and speaking
your question out loud and then allowing anything to flow
through your non-dominant arm. You'll know when something is
complete and you'll know if or when you need to change to the
dominant hand. And so sometimes you might feel
like okay. I need a lot of information to
come through now. So I'm going to switch to the
hand. That's easier to write with.
And then you just write automatically whatever comes
into your Consciousness. If it feels like you're in your
mind and you're trying to dictate what you're writing,
then work through your non-dominant arm, and if no
words Coming then explore making shapes, just feel the way that
your hand wants to express and you can draw you can scribble.
There's no goal. Maybe some words will come out.
Maybe they won't at any point. You're free to pause, take
breaths reconnect with your body.
Try not to be in your brain. So don't guide yourself through
thoughts. Definitely, don't edit and don't
critique anything. I'm just Be open, connect your
heart and let your heart Express out through your arms.
So we'll take the next 10 minutes.
And then at the end of those 10 minutes, again, you'll hear a
bell. All right, so when and as you're
ready. Come to completion.
And again, feel free to pause and continue exploring as long
as you'd like, and when you're done, just set your pen down and
close your eyes again, and take some deep, breaths in and out
and just notice that feeling in your body.
And if you've been working with your non-dominant hand, as I've
been, you might have a lot of sensation, so I know I'm a
Natural right-handed person. And my left arm right now.
Feel so alive feels tingly and really like quite vibrant, but
just notice for yourself, any feelings in your arms and you
feelings in your head again, breathing into your heart.
So a couple of options from here, you might want to do this
whole process again. So one way that sometimes I work
with automatic writing is to just go in and out of the
automatic State and sometimes, alright, for a couple of hours.
Sometimes just 10 minutes or something, but this is an
exercise and it's a way to bridge your conscious mind with
your more unconscious or higher mind intuitive mind.
So you can continue, you may also from here wish to move on
with your day. And if that's the case, then I
think any of your Spirit guides and thank your higher self and
ask that you remember and integrate any information that
you need to remember and integrate and consider that now,
especially if you're listening. In June, especially right around
the new moon, June 3rd through 5th or 6th is a wonderful time
to set intentions for this kind of connection.
And so you might want to take a few additional moments right now
and write down any intentions or make wishes.
And the new moon time is a wonderful time to make wishes
and on June 3rd. It is.
The new moon in Gemini. And to learn more about that was
sent to my podcasts on Gemini and on this new moon that are
all linked from this recording and yeah, make your wishes
simple use language that facilitates.
He's like easy words, like easy. May I easily find my way into a
vibrant relationship with my intuitive?
Self and Spirit guides would be one intention or one wish, and
you want to just frame it. Like I don't need to know how
this is going to happen. It's just my intentions just
something. I'm putting out there and it's a
wonderful time to set intentions and make wishes for Gemini as an
energy that you embody and for your relationship to your mind
and the evolution of your mind into the high mind, heart
connection, and intuitive collaboration.
