MEDITATION : An Elven way to receive Eru's Gifts

[artanaro]

have been swamped with stuff the last two days (and will be for at
least one more day) but I need to do something about THIS today!

We all realize that it takes MUCH to break away from the "system,"
despite the system's intensions, elves or not. I just think we with
elven energy are more aware of this than those who are not.

I have also read that MANY of us (including me) have made MANY changes
but there are some emotional "cogs" that we have been programmed with
about RECEIVING - this is across the board - we all need to work on
this (and I am guilty as charged!)

So, let us do this: A MEDITATION! If you have trouble meditating,
there are links to help you with that on Utolk and they are FREE! If
you can't meditate yet, then at least do this with the most
concentrated intention you possibly can, VISUALIZE - actually SEE this
happening! Let's get started! (Just so you guys know, I am
making this up as I type it!) If you can, drink some water first.

Whether you are sitting before your computer, or wish to wait until
you are going to bed, whichever is easiest, get really comfortable,
feet flat on floor and uncrossed, hands open/uncrossed and facing up
or down as you see fit. This won't take that long!

Close your eyes and see the beautiful silvery moonlight of Telperion
fill the left side of your body, right down to seeing yourself glow
silver, seeing this light in your very blood. And especially
circulate this silver light to your Ajna or third eye chakra, as well
as your sacral (orange) chakra, about 3 inches below your belly
button. If you see green and/or white along with this silver, that is
fine. Allow....

Now fill the right side of your body with the gorgeous golden sunlight
of Laurelin, again, seeing yourself glow golden. If you visualize
green too along with the gold, allow, this is fine. Circulate this
golden energy around and see it in your blood. Also direct this
golden energy to your crown chakra (at top of your head) and your
solar plexus (the soft-spot just below the joining of your ribcage).
The solar plexus is the chakra in which we receive and we will
concentrate more on this later. Allow yourself to be nurtured above
by this healing light.

Next, feel your tree roots pushing deeper and deeper into Arda, and
allow Arda to nurture and nourish you, feeling more grounded, and
connected to Arda. You are now grounded in Arda, are feeling VERY
supported by Arda, and in fact ARE Arda. You may see more colors,
these are fine.

Now, just as the trees had a symbiotic relationship, see the silver
light, then the gold light, fluctuating within you in a beautifully
and balanced way, in nature's ever-wise way, and the seasons.
Flow....and at this point you will likely feel connected to Iluvatar,
or All that IS. You may also connect with the Valar and/or your elven
guides at this point. You also may start getting some visions now, or
messages of some sort. You may be more fully re-awakening your elven
DNA and ancestral memory. Allow all this to take their respective
courses before doing the energy work.

Now it is time for the energy work. Realize that as elves or men that
we are created as Children of Iluvatar and because of this fact all
alone, we DESERVE to receive all of Iluvatar's gifts to us! Own this
fact that you in fact are created by All that IS so that you ARE a
piece of All that IS, and when you are in a state of feeling deserving
and worthy, circulate more of the Golden Light to your Solar Plexus,
large enough to start creating the Sun within your body in its own
right, and allow this sun to transcend the size of your body and
engulf the room, or even the very town or city you live it, and if you
can visualize it big enough, as Arda itself (herself?). Say to
yourself 3 times or as many times as you feel needed:

"I feel deserving and worthy as a Child of Iluvatar to RECEIVE all of
the gifts of love and prosperity in the Universe, and I feel and
embrace this spiritual SUPPORT!"

Then, while voicing this, VISUALIZE the actual RESULTS you wish for,
so see yourself where you want to be as if it already present. Let
Iluvatar and the Valar handle the details about how to go about doing
this. Trust Spirit. They know more than we can possibly know about
delivering our wishes to us! Voice these visualizations in a very
clear and concise way so that the "ATM withdrawal transaction" of the
never-ending "Universal bank account" is initiated! If you wish to
voice them 3 or more times to help manifestation, that is fine.

Now, see these wishes as seeds to plant in Arda. Visualize planting
these seeds, and imagine watering these seeds with water that has
flower essence of Scheranthus and Water Violet, and in fact spill some
of this water on yourself. Release old attachments, and CONNECT with
spirit rather than these attachments. You will likely know the
difference between attachments and connections simply by observing
whether something energizes you (a connection) or drains you (an
attachment). Forgive yourself, as we are taught attachments and don't
know better, just start letting go of attachments and embracing
connections, soon this will get easier. Then, if others are involved,
forgive them too as they do not know any better than you did, and if
you feel appropriate, send them some of the healing energy you are
experiencing now so that they one day when they are ready have an
opportunity to discover within themselves the things that YOU have and
that changed your life. Also, understand they may not be ready for
this, so after the gifting process, RELEASE them and turn them over to
the custody of our creator! The only thing you are responsible for is
YOUR actions, YOUR thoughts, YOUR deeds, YOUR creations (that means
your children until they become on their own, then it is their
responsibility).

Now, see purely beautiful and blended energy pouring out of your heart
chakra and THANK Iluvatar, the Valar and/or Arda for this healing
experience, and send a gift of this energy to Arda to go where healing
is needed most. The giving process here inspires the receiving
process as it is also a symbiotic relationship! You can now "come
out" of meditation or focused ritual!

Remember you are only responsible for your roles in life and your
experiences, and if you see some things you don't like, change them,
by thought first, but follow with practical and concrete action.
Continue to do this meditation and also conscious action as often as
possible (every day at the same time of day is ideal). Let's see if
any of us that practice this are still in the same boat we are in for
very long! Now - do you feel BETTER?

If you choose to do a concious ritual more than a meditation, you may
wish to find pictures by searching "images" in google, etcetera of
Telperion, Laurelin, Schleranthus and Water Violet Flowers, and even
burn gold and silver candles, whatever will help you focus!

So, I think I will post this on the website so it can be easier to use
and to find! In the meantime, if you wish to cross-post, that is OK
as long as you credit me and Utolk! Thanks!

Speaking of meditations - Awhile back, I posted two meditations - one
for golden light and opening to receive the gifts of Arda, and the
other for silver light and opening ancestral elven memory.

But in practice, it was reported by some that the ending was too
abrupt, so here is a new ending! :-)

[...] See yourself begin releasing, and slowly "unroot"
from Arda, realizing you always have this connection.
Then slow down the golden energy, then slow down the
silver energy, until the energy becomes small and portable. Keep a
little piece of each of these
"lights" then visualize this light becoming the 3
Silmarils that you can keep with you, even in your
pocket, and you can use their healing energy any time
you want! Take a deep breath, drink some water, or if
you are still "buzzed" try eating something, or if no
food around, put a tad of salt on the end of your
tongue. You should be back by now, feeling very
refreshed! :-)

P.S. Smelling coffee grounds or drinking coffee is very grounding too,
just don't make a habit of it if possible, hard on the liver! If you
need coffee, try mixing it down with roasted chicory root and
dandelion root to counteract the liver damage! ;-)

These two posts are very useful and very effective in reawakening elven DNA and is very healing...
Enjoy...
