Balancing our Earth Element
This November New Moon, we will Journey with Gongs and Cacao (optional). I will guide you on a shamanic journey to balance your Earth element.
This is the beginning of a series of Shamanic Gong Journeys that continues over the next 5 New moons through the 5 elements of Earth, Air, Fire, Water & Ether. In many different ancient and indigenous cultures across the globe, there are descriptions of the circle of life and medicine wheels which all incorporate the 5 elements of Earth, Air, Fire, Water & Ether.
No matter their origin, they all align with the same conceptual meaning. As we are made of these elements, we must be in balance for our health and well-being. We are all different, but if we strive to balance as much as possible we will be at our best in health, prosperity and happiness.
The Earth element represents our mothering/caring qualities, our generosity and our boundaries. The Earth element manifests as our physical sensation of touch, our connection to our physical body. When we are balanced we feel happy to touch and be touched, we are huggers. When we are out of balance we withdraw, worry and feel anxious.
Perhaps we gave a little too much of ourselves, over-caring to exhaustion is a common cause of burnout in today's society as we forget to nurture ourselves within our busy lives. When our Earth's element is balanced we have healthy boundaries, we know when we must say no, we do not overthink or worry, we just act for the good of all, including ourselves. We feel strong, grounded and free of anxiety.
So as we approach the festive season which is all about giving to others, let us first give to ourselves, fill up with the earth energy we need to carry us through the next phase of the year. We do this by journeying together, with my words, I guide you on a meditation which will lead you to connect with the element of Earth. To begin to awaken your awareness of how it manifests within you and around you in your experience of physical reality. Perhaps to gain an understanding of where you are leaking your Earth energy unconsciously, and how you can cultivate a healthy Earth element balance within you.
The gongs and cacao will enhance your shamanic brain in its ability to connect deeply into different levels of awareness, going from Beta consciousness, through to alpha, delta and theta, the day-dream states where we are still awake yet able to vision as if in a dream. To awaken and to see with your shamanic brain what is all around us all the time, yet invisible to most of us with our eyes open. And of course, I will guide you home fully to your body again, so you can integrate the experience and bring home the gifts and wisdom to your everyday reality.
❤️ We can heal our world, one heart at a time - let us begin with our own ❤️
