Happy New Moon ๐
Tonight I will offer in my womenโs group the first in a series of moon meditations for women. Iโm inspired for this luscious offering, so many years in the dreaming and making.
In tonights meditation, we will explore the ebb and flow of emotion and energy that we as women naturally experience. Itโs true that in the course of a day, a woman can move through any number of fluctuations. Whether they are emotional reactions, the fluctuation of hormones, or the self-regulation of our nervous systems, all are necessary and completely natural.
Meditation helps us to flow with these rhythms and in turn navigate the longer more intense descents. This dynamic movement is a crucial function of the deep psychological ecology. This is the essence of what meditation is: space to face your reality and to allow yourself to be changed by experience.
Culturally, we may rejoice in productivity and being โupโ all the time. Our downward fluctuations are shrouded in judgment, fear, and ultimately resistance. Not knowing that this flow is natural and not being educated on how to honor it, we tend to numb out and mask the deeper need. The resulting burnout and overwhelm can further hinder our instinct for natural processing. To honor our rhythms is essential, after all, life is a continual cycle of releasing and reforming. The calling is to learn to drop in, feel and face yourself.
A spiritual woman's life at some point leads to this knowing and soulful surfing. Riding these waves connects us deeply with ourselves, our personal rhythms, and our foundation. Such is the secret sauce of feminine meditation.
We all journey through highs and lows. May we discover the secrets to being conscious and compassionate with our experience.
