welcome, welcome to day 38 of a season of peace, a most auspicious day as it’s the International Day of Women which was begun in 1911 when a million people gathered in solidarity… it’s long been said that when 1000 women gather, heart consciousness, the divine human will be birthed. His Holiness, the Dalai Lama says that it will be women who transform the world… let us begin in this moment a new cycle of soul transformation, a moment of uniting heaven and earth and manifesting greater love on earth by committing to this pledge to:
~
embrace equity
help women and girls achieve their ambitions
challenge conscious and unconscious bias
call for gender-balanced leadership
value women’s and men’s contributions equally
create inclusive flexible cultures
challenge bias and inequality
campaign for and wage peace
forge women’s advancement
celebrate women’s achievements
champion women’s education
~
today as we rise, we are a great wave rippling across the cosmos celebrating the divine feminine, in all genders, in her quest for equality, freedom and harmony… coming together in sacred circle drawing down the energy of the full moon, we pause across the planet to gather in peace and be the rising tide singing our soul song… let’s focus the healing power within our hearts on all our relations and our beautiful cosmos aligning with the energies of:
- stepping into a new capacity to keep pace with sudden and complete change
- opening to our spirit dropping deeply into our physical bodies and our mundane reality
- discovering our higher purpose hidden within the seed of our personal ambition
- consciously moving into relationships that are based on love, caring and affection rather than being compelled to play out our old relationship stories
- a rising aspiration to move up the ladder of the spiritual hierarchy
- learning obedience to higher laws
- finding the support and connections we need to step out of survival based relationships like jobs and old world marriages
- staying within ourselves and allowing the universe to co-create with us, rather than going outside ourselves and pushing to make things happen
let us close the circle with the Unify Heart Meditation…
let’s all hold hands and gently close our eyes conspiring, inhaling together, slowing the breath… bringing our attention to how our bodies are feeling right now and in full acceptance of whatever is present… notice where your body is touching the ground and bring your focus there and begin feeling the pulsing energy of the Earth beneath us, the heartbeat of Mother Earth… with an inhale, breathe in gratitude and love for all that she gives us… continuing to breathe, feel your heartbeat, your unique beautiful rhythm pulsing in synchrony with our earthmother… breathe deeply from your heart as you open to the sensation of love within you… feel the pulsing energy of this love… now, envision, feel and be this pulsing energy as a light glowing in your heart. breathing deeply, see and feel this light getting brighter until it fills your whole body and surrounds you… with your next exhale, think of someone you know who is having a difficult time in life and imagine this person is right in front of you… while remaining connected with the love in your own heart, embrace your feeling of empathy for this person’s struggle as you breathe… see the light in their heart as the same loving light that is within yours… as you offer your love and compassion to this person, feel the light in both of your hearts growing brighter together… now, with an inhale, focus your attention back on your heart feeling the light grow brighter as you allow the love from your heart to nourish any parts of you that have been in pain… open to feeling compassion for yourself as you breathe the light of your love into the places you have kept fear, grief, anger, stress, and insecurity… open to feeling nourished by the love within and offer yourself acknowledgment and respect for everything you are, how far you have come and for the incredible beauty and power within you… take another a deep breath and start to feel the woman to your right… this woman has her own struggles, pain, fears, and insecurities… take a moment to feel empathy and great respect for this powerful woman… while breathing into your heart, feel the power of the love in her heart. see and feel the light within her as it grows brighter, surrounding her… feel the light within your heart and the light within her heart growing brighter together… take a moment to feel the woman to your left… this woman, too, has her own struggles, pain, fears, and insecurities… take a moment to feel empathy and great respect for this powerful woman… while breathing into our own heart, feel the power of the love in her heart… see and feel the light within her as it grows brighter, surrounding her… feel the light within our heart and the light within her heart growing brighter together. feel the love and light of every woman in the circle being amplified… growing brighter… filling the whole room…
envision in your life and community women interacting from a space of harmony, mutual support, celebration, acceptance, and upliftment… feel in your heart, yourself and every woman feeling secure and happy in whom she is and supported by our global sisterhood. bring this intention to the light in your heart and with a deep breath imagine sending that light into the earth below you, like a seed being planted… bring your hands to your heart and feel your heartbeat… take a deep breath and gently open your eyes… now being anchored in heavenearth soaring through deep space being peace and painting it across the sky sea…
welcome, welcome to our beautiful world that is just, regenerative, healthy and peaceful…
