This is a great reflection to use when you want to encourage personal growth, intuition, and healing.
You Will Need:
A body of running water
Directions:
1. Perform this meditation by a body of running water – whether the tidal ocean, a rushing stream, or even the bathtub faucet. If you don’t have a moving body of water available, you can simply close your eyes and visualize one.
2. Breath deeply and imagine that the rushing water is actually a powerful stream of fast-moving energy, connecting an flowing with everything around it.
3. Reflect on this cardinal expression of water and how it impacts its environment. What does that expression of water offer its surroundings? For example, does that stream of water nurture trees and greenery or perhaps offer sustenance to animal life?
4. Ponder how cardinal water manifest within you. It is like a small stream of emotions, slowly and quietly making its way through? Or are your emotions more like a gushing waterfall, crashing forward and acting as a powerful (if somewhat chaotic) force in your life? Or are your emotions restricted, like a dam?
5. The cardinal expression of water can help you connect to your subconscious experience and check in with your soul. Neither too little nor too much is healthy. So reflect on which manifestation of cardinal water appears in your life right now by asking yourself the following questions.
- How can I cater to my soul’s growth?
- How do I nurture myself?
- How is my home set up? How can I curate my space to provide better nurturance?
- What is my relationship with my emotions? How do they guide me?
6. Ponder any more questions that come to mind. When you are ready, take a few deep breaths and bring your awareness back to your body. Use any insight you gleaned to guide your magic throughout the Cancer season, and feel free to repeat this meditation as desired.
