These meditations and visualisations are generally not part of my Book of Shadows and Lights, although they are linked from there. Mainly they have been given to me by other people, or they are adaptations of meditations from books. They are certainly not traditionally used in Wiccan or Pagan practise, although they can be. Should you want a copy of them, please feel free to cut and paste. If you want to use them on your web site, then put a link to me. You can get a banner here.

I'd be really happy if people have meditations they would like to place here, and of course you will be credited and thanked profusely by everyone who reads it. If you have anything to contribute, please e-mail me: lilitu@key.net.au.

Kwan Yin Meditation

You are sitting on a lotus in the sea. Everything around you is dark and the waves are gently lapping around you. There is barely any light - just a little from the stars in the sky which is also clear and black. The air around you is warm and there is a gentle breeze. The salty scent of the sea fills your nostrils. Feel the soft petals of the lotus flower supporting you as you travel your journey across the sea.

After a time the moon begins to rise on the horizon, slowly but steadily. It is a full moon and she shines her light across the sea like a pathway towards her. You are floating and the moon is now full and hanging on the horizon, still with the soft, warm breeze. Then from the moon you see a small figure floating toward you, almost imperceptible at first, then growing. The figure appears to be walking on the water, slowly becoming closer and closer, until you recognise Her as the Goddess Kwan Yin. She is clothed in a shimmering, silvery gossamer robe as she becomes closer and closer you feel the silky robe waft against your feet as the breeze blows it toward you.

You can look at the Goddess Kwan Yin. Drink her in and feel her compassionate and loving energy envelope you. Close your eyes and feel the gentle rocking of the sea. Look into Her eyes, right into the depths of Her, and ask her for what you need and for a message to help you along on your journey. She will hold her hand out to you and gently touch your shoulder or hand or perhaps the crown of your head. Wherever she touches, feel the energy pulse through you. Absorb it into your very being. Feel its texture - is it warm, hot, cool, tingling? This is the manifestation of the energy of perfect love and perfect trust.

You can ask the Goddess Kwan Yin for guidance, or purification, or healing. Whatever you feel you need can be lovingly given by Her. Just ask and you shall receive.

When your audience with the Goddess Kwan Yin is completed, She will retreat back to the Full Moon, still shining on the horizon and now beginning to slowly move up into the sky. Watch Her as she returns to Her home in the heavens. Watch the moon as she climbs ever higher in the sky, giving light to the darkness of night and guiding you along to the next day.

You are still floating on your lotus on the black sea, the warm breeze is still swirling gently around you. You are comforted and comfortable. Now is the time for sweet sleep and you feel yourself drifting off, safe in the arms of the Goddess.

I adapted this Kwan Yin meditation from a Buddhist meditation given to me by my friend Geoff Byng. Thanks Geoff.

Purification Meditation

This is a simple meditation which requires you to be comfortable and relaxed. It's a great one to do before sleep.

Take a few deep breaths and get yourself comfortable and close your eyes. In front of you, see a transparent sphere of white light - although the light is clear and strong, you can see through it to the other side. Observe the sphere for a while until you feel the light emanating from the sphere towards you and the light surrounding you with the energy of cleansing and purification.

Bask in this energy for a while. Feel all negativity, all negative emotions and all bad feelings being drawn from you and into the sphere of light. After a while begin sending light from your solar plexus back to the sphere - as you give so shall you receive. This is an exchange of purifying energy between you and the Universal Life Force.

Taper off this energy exchange with the Source when you feel ready to do so. Feel cleansed and purified, energised, relaxed and loved.

Another meditation adapted from Geoff Byng.
