End of August. For my family, we are enjoying the last few days before school starts for the kids. Fitting in a last visit to Santa Cruz, going school shopping, watching the flowers we planted in full bloom, the zinnias, the morning glories. The tomato's that are peeking out from under the green explosion of leaves. Even the corn my daughter planted looks like it might produce something. Sitting on my back porch it comes to me what this time of year is about. It's about enjoying the abundance that you planted and the fullness that the summer season has brought. Here's a short meditation to help you realize the fullness of your summer season.
Sitting in a quiet place, allow yourself to visualize your body. From the tail bone you are connected to the center of this planet. Imagine the cord is as wide as your hips. From your head, see the cord connecting you to the cosmos. What color is this cord? Purple? Sea foam green? Gold? Image that you are connected to both the cosmos and to the center of the planet, imagine these energies running through your body. Imagine yourself sitting in the center of your head. This objective space is where you can see clearly the information coming to you. Once you reach this place, imagine a gold sphere above your head. Now, visualize all the things you did this summer, the swimming, the work projects completed, the quiet time with your family, any personal projects you finished. Put those things in the gold sphere.
Are there anythings you wanted to do, but didn't quite finish? Imagine those projects being energetically completed as you put them in the sphere. This way, you can bring your energy back from those projects and be ready to work on other things. Of course, you can always create those projects anew, but right now, you're giving yourself th gift of accomplishment.
Inside that sphere put a big dose of happiness, and enjoyment. Imagine the feeling of accomplishment too, you did a great job this season, harvest the richness you planted. When your sphere is full of accomplishment and happiness, and all the projects you did and didn't finish, congratulate yourself by bringing that sphere into your body. Imagine it flowing through the crown to fill up every part of you, this abundance overflows into the space around you. You see yourself, full and complete.
Celebrate! This is your gift to yourself, really congratulate yourself on a beautiful season! Know you are ready with all the energy and creativity you have for your next projects and desires. You are whole and complete with one season of life, and ready to look forward into the next! Hope you all have a happy labor day!
